How to reduce night feeds? My 1-year-old wakes up at 12mn and 4am consistently and I can get her to skip a feed at 12mn but she really needs her milk to fall asleep again at the 4am wakeup. Any suggestions?

I found this source that suggests keeping track of everything in order to gather data! Also, the website suggests, "If you’d like your baby to be able to fall asleep on her own in the middle of the night, it’s important she’s learning that skill at bedtime. The way your baby is falling asleep at bedtime, is typically the way she’ll expect to fall asleep in the night. If you rock your baby to sleep at bedtime, you’ll need to plan to rock her in the night too. If you’d like to work towards independence in the night, you’ll need to work on that at bedtime as well. They also have some really awesome charts that can help you out! Check out this link for more, hope it helps: https://childsleepscience.wordpress.com/2014/03/26/how-do-i-reduce-my-babys-night-feedings/

I am told colors can affect a child's mind hence he should have only certain colors around him. How true is this? If yes can you advise what colors can I have my child surrounded with?

Yes, color has a powerful impact on kid's mood, behavior and health. Light is the most important environmental input, after food, in controlling bodily function. Here is an image which shows how color psychology can effect your kid:

My toddlers don't want to use car seats ever. How do I deal with this problem?

Try to explain , in simple terms, the need to be in car seats, for safety. Be firm with it, no car seats = car is not going to get started or they can't go out Kids are very smart, once you give in, that's it

Can I give Nestle Lacto milk to my 10 month old?

Nestle Lactogen2 is the formula milk you can give to babies older than 6 months. It's a spray dried follow up formula designed for healthy infants as the liquid part of the diet during and after weaning. It contains maltodextrin which is easy to digest and nutrients that support growth & brain development. You can start by giving your baby a little amount of Lactogen2 initially to get the baby's digestive system get used to it. Also please consult your pediatrician before deciding.

What could cause a child to scream and cry during his sleep? How to help stop it?

It has a lot of reasons. It could be something about his physical state when sleeping--he isn't in a comfortable position or his diaper is irritating him. It may very well be he is having a dream that he feels uncomfortable, too. I suggest that whenever you put your child to sleep, make sure he is very comfortable, area is well ventilated and you can also put some calming background music.

When can i start giving sugar to my baby?

I've read that you shouldn't give babies sugar or salt till baby has passed at least 1 year old. But personally, I'd try to avoid sugar in baby for as long as I can. The earlier you introduce sugar, the more dependent they are and they might develop a sweet tooth and not want to eat anything else. Sugar also leads to obesity and other childhood problem so avoiding it for as long as I can is ideal but it's not realistic. Therefore, limiting sugar is the next best thing.

Is it ok to force children to do things in a certain way? I get very annoyed when my kid does not listen to me. How do you deal with it?

The more you force a child to do things your way, the more defiant it will be! You need to set a certain rules for certain things, instead of yelling at them talk to them and tell them why you want them to do that particular thing that particular way. Be patient and calm.
