Hi
My 16-months-old daughter weighs 9.5 kg. She takes one 2-hours nap during the day and sleeps for 9-10 hours at night but frequently wakes up crying and only settles back to sleep after feeding (about 5-8 times). Additionally, her daily water intake is less than 500 ml. Can you recommend a good pediatrician for consultation? How can we get her water intake to increase? And how can she have a seamless sleep during the night?
