Actress Leah Remini was a tough talkin' cookie as her character "Carrie" on The King of Queens, however she's a bit of a push-over when it comes to her 4-year-old daughter Sofia. She lets her daughter have 6 or more bottles at bedtime. That's a lot! Deep breath - let's not be judgy.
Leah admits, "I'm very consistent; I give in. My daughter runs the house."
Remini, 37, isn't quite sure how to take a stand - if she doesn't give in, her preschooler goes into hysterics. Leah says, "The problem I'm having with bottle-feeding is basically that Sofia drinks six or more bottles a night." Both she and her husband are left exhausted and drained from making up new bottles and changing diapers constantly.
The former TV star realizes that there are also health issues involved by giving her daughter that many bottles at bedtime. "We're hearing that it's not good for her. In talking to our pediatrician, they almost fell off their chair when we said she's still on the bottle.
"So I'm thinking maybe it's not right." Oh, the ruts we get into.
Leah and her husband have let Rachael Ray's cameras film inside their home and a 24/7 look at their lives. It's a reality check - Leah feels guilty when her daughter is in tears and her husband wanting to do the right thing as they try to wean Sofia off the bottle.
Yikes! Good luck Leah, you're going to need it! I feel for her, it's going to be a tough few nights after her daughter gets off the bottle.
