A member asked:

I am struggling with my 1year old he is a very busy boy he eats good and drinks a lot of milk 5 bottles in 24hours to be exact, he does not want to sleep at night he is every 2 hours awake waking up screaming until i go to him have tried cry it out?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Some basics: No kid should consume more than 24 oz of milk in 24 hrs.Cow milk is designed for cows & the excess in humans can cause irritation/minor bleeding & lead to anemia. A kid waking up screaming may have a disorder of sleep entry called night terrors that improves with better sleep practices. Please consult his doc on sorting this out.
