Looking for some advice about at least partial night weaning my 14 month old. She puts herself to sleep fine but wakes indiscriminately - she sometimes will wake as early as 10:30pm, sometimes as late as 3am. We try to let her go back but at this age if she doesn't go back in about ten minutes she REALLY escalates (like to banging her head on the crib) so I don't know if that's the right solution.

I'd like to push nursing to just once at night at 3am or later, because if she makes it that long to nurse she usually only has the one wakeup. Gradual methods like shortening the time of nursing a la Troublesome Tots haven't really worked with her in the past.

Anyone have any insight or experience?
