My mum looked after my 9 month old today while j went back to work for a few hours. I told her everything she needed but she told me she made a bottle and he had half at 11.30am and then finished off the bottle at 3pm! I think it was left out! Is this OK? I know its supposed ti be drank within 2 hours?
Do y’all ever let your bf/ husband make/ wash bottle or do you do them?
Hi guys! I’m almost 30 weeks pregnant with my second baby and I have a 2 year old. I would really appreciate if anyone has any tips or tricks that helped with the transition! I’m more nervous about how our household will be after baby is born than labor itself 🤭
How many bottles/feeds a day is your LO having now and how much my LB isn't really interested in milk anymore just wants food lol so at the moment he's on 3 bottles a day morning/middle of day and evening around 6/7 oz a day and sometimes he doesn't even drink them all up he's just not interested I'm putting it down...
How much milk in mls (if bottle fed) are your 12 month olds drinking now? Thank you ☺️
Hi, my wee boy is 4 months in a week today, we’ve been using kendamil since he was born but have been having issues trying to get it since then and I’m just getting so tired of it! Sometimes we can find so many tubs in one day and stock up (never buy more than 2 tubs from one shop cause I’d feel so bad 🤣) but…

How many ounces does your 4 month old eat? I wanna make sure I’m feeding her/producing enough
My baby hardly eats any solid food but still loves milk. He isn’t showing any signs of wanting to drop a bottle and still has 4 7oz bottles a day. I feel like I need to try and help him reduce milk in the hope that he’ll eat more but I also am a bit skeptical of this as I just think he’s still not going to eat much ...
Mamas who are supplementing with formula what does that schedule look like? I’ve exclusively breastfed baby for almost 5 months but I get my period every 2 weeks and my supply takes a hit every time. I’m just about managing to keep up with him but I’m exhausted and my boobs hurt and I keep looking at the formula box...
Anyone else still struggling to get rid of bottles? I'm totally at a loss. My baby is a pro at drinking water out of a straw cup but refuses to drink milk out of anything but a bottle. I've spent $$ on straw cups, open cups, sippy cups but all attempts have led to major meltdowns. Any advice is appreciated🙏🏾
I’ve just started introducing formula feeding for night wake ups. Can I pre-make a bottle before I go to bed and store it in the fridge to then warm up in the middle of the night when my LO wakes up? Or should I be making a bottle once he’s awake, although that would mean I would have to wait a while for the water t...
My 14mo is still having his cows milk in his mam bottles. He drinks water out of his TT sippy cup during the day. I'd really like to transition him to something else for his morning and bedtime milk bottles, but I just know that he loves the comfort of the bottle teats. How can I get him to transition and what sh...

My LG is 2 and a half and I’m wanting to start little Christmas traditions, not sure if she’s still too little to understand?
My 9 week old is combi feeding on demand and currently drinks 120ml formula approx every 2 hours during the day and topped up with breastfeeding. Sometimes stops at the 90ml mark. According to Google a typical 9 week old should be having 150-180ml 4-5 times a day. Of course you need to give your baby what they req...
