I'm still giving Owen milk, but I'm thinking I need to just give water. It seems like he's just thirsty and didn't even drink a full bottle. .. Only takes a gulps and he's back to sleep.
If he wakes up he is usually instantly asleep once we pick him up so typically nothing, but if he seems fidgety or uncomfortable I'll give him water. He is constantly peeing through his nighttime diapers so I try to limit liquids at night. He doesn't get a 5-8oz bottle of milk before bed.

She wakes up every night multiple times but I do not give her anything. Shes not hungry bc I can go in and rub her back and she's back out or put her in our bed (trying to break this habit) and she's out fast.
With both kids we found that switching to water helped them STTN. It was like they woke out of habit but enjoyed what they were getting (milk) and the water wasn't as awesome so then they stopped lol
It was mommy, then a bottle up until 2 days ago. He was just taking a few gulps to pass back out and didn't need the milk itself so we just decided to bite the bullet and lay him back down. Amazingly he only cried for like 3 minutes and fell back asleep. I'm not sure why we didn't do that sooner! When he gets up at 5:00 I give him a full bottle and he goes back down until 6:30.
