Has anyone used glass bottles over plastic ones and can given me some honest feedback on them. Would be greatly appreciated :)

Which u think is better

We started giving my little girl full fat milk a few weeks after her first birthday. It made her constipated though so we went back to formula. Due to colds, coughs etc. We have kept her on formula for for past few weeks as we didn't want to transition when she was poorly. I want to do it gradually this time, howeve...

how much is your baby eating at once he will eat a 4oz bottle and still be super hungry and then eat another 2-3 oz he spits it up and i feel like im over feeding him

My little boy is 3.5 months and we’ve just moved from breast feeding to exclusively formula feeding. When breast feeding he would feed every 2 hours or so - sometimes he would want it hourly but this was maybe once a week. Now he’s exclusively formula fed, I don’t know how often he should be feeding. Google says 3...

Need help. My Lao currently has milk in his MAM bottle in the morning and at night. I am trying to switch bottles to cups or something similar, any recommendations? Also, I am trying to wean him off the morning milk but he gets up in the morning and the first thing he says is 'milk'. How do I cut it off?

Can anyone recommend a flask that keeps water above 70 degrees for night feeds?

Hello- I need help! My 6 month old daughter had the last of my breast milk today and we switched her over to formula, I don’t think it’s going well 😩 She was only having 130ml BM in a bottle at a time and most of the time she would drink it half way through and then have more later when she felt like it as I have…

So the last two days little miss has been pushing her milk away and screaming, yet she will eat her hand or chew on anything in sight. She recently moved up to 700-750ml on average per day but has taken 540ml today. Would usually have a milk about 7/7:30 and go to bed but instead she has completely refused the bot...

Hi everyone Little one is 12 months old in two weeks. The last week he’s really dropped his milk, from 3x 8oz bottles a day down to 3-4 bottles of 2-3oz. He has oat milk in cereal and cooking. Is this massive reduction normal? Should I be worried about calcium intake? Thanks

Looking for advice from breastfeeding/bottle feeding (formula&breast milk) mamas please. What is your typical schedule like? Do you breastfeed throughout the day then bottle feed at night or vice versa or is it breastfeed followed by a bottle of formula? Also how much oz/mls is given in a bottle?

I’m currently using nipple shields to save my breastfeeding journey and collection cups because I get so much let down. I got a second set of shields today so I have more in rotation between cleaning and sterilising. When reading the cleaning instructions today it states to clean after each use however sterilise on...

My little boy will be 10 months old next week. He eats 3 meals a day - is quite a good eater. He’s never really been great with his milk (he’s a 9th centile baby and has followed his line lovely) Previously he’s been having 3 8oz bottles a day - 7am, 3pm and 7pm. The last couple of days he has refused his 3pm bo...

Is anyone else's baby not gaining weight? Archer is 3 weeks old today and he's losing weight! I'm expressing and he's having 2.5oz to 3oz every 3 hours or so. He's not a sicky baby, he's having plenty of wet and dirty nappies, he isn't spitting the milk out so I'm not sure why he isn't gaining weight! He was 7lbs 1...

What size teat is your 9 month old using?

Random question but if I'm trying to log how much formula my little one is having in a feed, how would I do so. For example she is on anti reflux powder which has thickener in it. So I would make a 3oz bottle but in the bottle because of the thickener it would read as 4oz roughly .. so if I'm logging do I say it's...

Hey everyone, my baby boy starts daycare tomorrow. I’ve been saying I want him to go due to him being super attached to me and want him to play with other babies. But now I’m getting nervous. He’s 6.5 months. How was the transition for your baby going to daycare ? What age did they start? & How long did it take them...
