Drinking is for day time. Sleeping is for night time. |
Maybe I don't want to get up and go to the kitchen in the middle of the night! 
You're telling me you've never woken up parched at 3 am?!
(As a side note, for kabbalistic reasons I won't drink water left uncovered overnight... Bottle solves that)

I sometimes leave a bottle of water next to my bed. Especially when I’m pregnant or nursing I’m sometimes so thirsty when I wake up in the middle of the night. It’s perfectly normal.

OK, that makes sense now.
I have never woken up in the middle of the night needing a drink. If I wake up, all I want to do is roll over and go straight back to sleep.
If I have to get up and go pee, I am really annoyed!  Why would I want to drink more, if it's going to keep me running to the bathroom all night? (I have a bladder the size of a peanut.  )

What worked with DD - first, teach him to drink from a bottle while next to you, not nursing. Then after a few days, transfer him, bottle, and something which smells like you into a crib.

The kid still has a suck/eat to sleep association.
So how does this prevent night wakings?
