Do you still allow him to have milk in a bottle? If you do insist that daytime milk has to be drunk from a cup or else he doesn't get any. He really only needs a max of 1 pint of milk a day including cheese and yoghurt. I'd be interested what he would eat if for one day you were really strict about the no milk and let him decide what he wants to eat for the whole day. Ask him if he wants something but if he says no leave it. At night I know it will be the hardest but after having given him one bottle if he wakes up only give him water and tell him night time is for sleeping. You may have a really rotten night and I know it sounds awfully tough but it shouldn't take long for him to realise that you mean business. At this stage also don't worry if you give him cereal or dinner too. Good luck!
