I am currently breast feeding my little one we have started giving bottles of formula once a day usually 7oz. My little one has bottle of pumped breast before bed occasionally but I want to get him used to having occasional formula before bed but unsure how much to give him?

My son is 3 months old and has started to get himself into a routine of having his “bedtime bottle” at 10pm… I’m worried that this cycle will just continue. How can I change it? Or is it a case of holding it out until they understand the bedtime routine?

He used to have 6oz every 3 hours - last feed at 7pm and then he’d go right through to 6am. Now he wants 7oz but every 4 hours, if he keeps the same routine this will mean he’s down 2 oz across the day. Is this normal? Should I top him up at night?

My baby is 8 months old and has been fully breastfed up to now. I have a 4-day trip coming up in just a few days, and she’ll be staying with her dad. I’ve been trying to introduce formula (tried three different kinds), but she refuses it—makes a disgusted face and pushes it away. Has anyone been through this? Any f...

Help! Milton cold sterilising tablets for the last year have destroyed my hands. What on earth can I do to get them back to normal looking hands? Normal hand creams don’t work! Got builder hands 😭😂

How much formula is your 3 month old having and how often?

I need help. I accidentally gave my 5 week old a 6-12 month formula a couple days ago. We are combo feeding. I noticed two days ago that we were giving him the wrong formula and since then I breast fed him the first day and we gave him the correct formula too and have still been breastfeeding too but he is still eat...

How many mls of formula is your baby having each feed? Just had my 9 week old in A&E and the doctor asked how much formula she's having and how often. I said around 150ml every 3-4 hours (except at night where she sleeps through from around 11pm - 6am) and he was shocked, he said she should be having 70-80ml every...

Mamas whose little ones have issues with throwing up have you tried the Kendamil goat formula? If so did it help the situation or make it worse? We’ve tried so many formulas and reflux medication but nothings working. Hoping that maybe this formula will work for my son.

I’m thinking of getting the vital baby uv steriliser but what are everyone’s recommendations?

Looking for advice or mums in similar situation. My baby has been exclusively breastfed (no expressed milk or formula) and is about to start nursery. He’s my second child and I’ve had zero time or interest in expressing and don’t plan to when he starts nursery either. We’ve been offering him formula at least once ...

Can anyone list little one’s routine please? Really struggling with a routine, feel like a bad mum😔

Hi guys My baby is classed as failure to thrive so I’ve decided to try giving him a couple of bottles of formula a day to see if that helps, but he just will not drink it! We’ve been using kendamil. He takes pumped milk from the bottle without issue but when it’s formula he just lets it run out of his mouth, spits ...

Recently switched to Kendamil: first infant milk and keep getting lumps in the milk? It’s not just this batch either as my last pot had the same! Does anyone else get this? Sometimes makes my son sick and gets stuck in the teat!

What are good options for baby? She’ll soon have to transition off formula but has a dairy allergy

Hi, 32 weeks pregnant with my first and spending the day getting to know my tommee tippee UV steriliser (as pictured). Can I put dummies/soothers in this to sterilise them? I know you can do the boiling water method but just wondering if I can pop one in while doing bottles?

Hey all! Anyone who has been on holiday with their formula fed baby how did you do it in terms of using the water to make their bottles? x

Hi Ladies, decided to give the app another go. My little no longer has milk (his choice) which is how I gave him his vitamin. How else can I give him it? He is a really, really fussy eater and I'm just riddled with guilt at the thought of him not getting all he needs. The vitamin I've been using is the wellkid...
