What size teat and oz’s are your December babies on? My baby was born the 16th December so coming up to 4 months soon. He’s on size 1 teat and 5oz bottles, he seems to be fine with this but I’m starting to wonder should he go up one now with both things?

My little boy is on Kendamil first infant milk however we have just found out he has colic and the milk doesn’t seem to help🥺 I’ve done some research and Kendamil does both organic milk and comfort milk. Has anyone’s babies got colic & on any of the above? If they are which one are they on? & did you see an…

Baby girl is 7 months old, still exclusively breastfed but I’m wanting to switch to formula - has anyone else done this? I’m not sure how many oz she should be drinking or how many bottles, she doesn’t really drink more than 4oz in one go atm but I presume that will be different when I completely stop breastfeeding?

How many ml of formula at 4 month old?

My LO is 3 months now and showing signs of teething so I am trying to switch him to bottle instead of breast. I plan to wean him off slowly but he won't take to the bottle at all. He used to drink from the bottle when my MIL visited for a month when he was just a few weeks old but I didn't keep up with it out of con...

Hi, I’ve got a question might be silly but I was wondering we are heading soon on a trip and our baby will be almost 1 year old by then I would like to take formula and bottles with me just in case because we don’t want to introduce cows milk while away, can I use the bottles without sterilising them? I mean I’ll d...

My little boy is on aptamil formula and I don’t know if it’s quite agreeing with him. I did try Kendamil and that didn’t agree with him either, I think it was a little too rich. My question is how many times can I change the formula? I don’t want to keep chopping and changing and upset him even more. Did anyone else...

Hi! Is the “no more bottles” due to worries of cavities? Or what’s the logic? My gal takes 2 x 8 oz per day. Sometimes on in the middle of the night. Sippy cup nipple on it. Just curious what everyone is being told/reading/hearing.

I am 4 weeks pp and exclusively breastfeeding is getting too much 😣 I’ve bought a momcozy electric pump and I’m unsure on sterilising bottles. We have the Milton cold water steriliser so would I need to wash the bottles in soapy water and then sterilise them. Once sterilised do I need to wait for the bottles to…

Tips for introducing bottle to my 10 week old, she is just not accepting it at all.

My LB is always so sick after a bottle. For reference he is on Aptamil 2, Mam bottles (teat 3) he drinks around 2/3 oz every 2/3 hours. I keep him upright for over half an hour and he will still be sick. Would changing formula help? TIA x

Hi. When I had my first born, 13 years ago, we were able to boil the kettle, fill up bottles to what we need, cool down and use them through out the day. I have been told you only have 2 hours to use this water now. I have been told you can still do this And I’ve been told you cannot use Agee that’s been sitting...

Do these have to be heated? The instructions show to put them in a warm bowl of water but do they haaaaaave to be done like that or can they be room temp x

Anything wrong if my son is still drinking formula at 15months? He just dislikes cows milk but he wants milk in the morning and before bed ): My husband doesn’t care so I’m like idk 🤷🏻‍♀️

Just curious of what bottles everyone is going with. Im undecided between dr brown, avent, nuk, and mam…

How is weaning going for you at the moment for those that didn't do BLW?

So we had our 12 month health review last weekend and the lady mentioned that we should no longer be giving LO bottles for milk. This should transition to cup/beaker. We tried using the Munchkin 360 miracle cup and my son has been pushing this away. Tried with the Doidy cup and still no luck. Tried putting it in a ...

So Mamas what nappy cream are we using to replace the best cream of all Metanium?! I’m so sad it’s discontinued, was the only thing that I found did the job for my boy😩

My twin boys are 10 weeks tomorrow. Have been fed on expressed breast milk since birth. They’re both taking around 100mls every 4 hours. My supply is dwindling, I need to express for 30-60mins to get the 200mls I need for each feed & have no ‘stock’, just enough for the next feed. I feel like I may need to start a...
