Patient's question:
My baby is 3 years old. He always nurses at night. Does drinking milk at night harm a child's kidneys?Doctor's answer:
This child is not well-fed. He feels hungry and needs to eat. When the child gets up at night to eat, parents should try to shorten the waiting time for the child to eat. My method is to mix powdered milk before bed and then add boiling water. When the child wakes up at night, the boiling water and the pre-mixed powdered milk are immediately adjusted to the appropriate temperature. The child's waiting time is no more than one minute, and the mother does not have to get up and run around. Drinking hot milk for too long and waiting for too long deepens the child's impression of waking up at night. He said: When forced to wake up from a deep sleep, no one will feel happy and impatient.
