I've recently moved from EBF to formula and have absolutely no idea on the amount of formula I should be giving in a 24 hour period. Do your formula fed babies still take a bottle in the night? Mine seems hungry because he was used to breast feeding during the night. I just don't want to overfeed.

Has anyone moved up a teat size yet? My LO is falling asleep during feeds more but he has colic, so worried to change from the slower flow and he guzzles it too quickly

Hey mummas, my LO is down to 2 bottles a day - morning when he wakes up and before bed. Is it bad that he’s still using bottles? He’s still not quite ready for a cup but he drinks water during the day from a sippy cup beaker thing but the straw limits the flow so he doesn’t choke. That’s the issue we have with a nor...

Anyone else paranoid about scooping formula? Is it too “packed”? How many scoops did I just do?….My thoughts for every bottle 🥴

It says that items must be used straight away from the steriliser… Can I get the items out and not use them straight away? Like does it have to be straight away?! I.e. using a breast pump on the go

Hi guys ! This may be a stupid question but is it okay to give babies cold formula ? Yesterday I made my babies bottle as he was down for a nap and I knew he’d be getting up soon hungry so I went ahead and put it in the fridge and by the time he got up it was a bit cold but I noticed there wasn’t nearly as many bubb...

I was trying to buy a formula dispenser but my husband yelled at me when I told him how much was it. I am very tired of getting up at night :( But it doesn’t seem like he cares at all. Would anyone have an extra one or maybe was looking to donate theirs? I would be very grateful

Looking at buying a rapid cool..... Can someone please explain the EASIEST way step by step on how to use it if my baby was having let's say 5oz of formula... I've been watching videos and it's so confusing lol.

hi all my LO is a terrible eater and still relying on milk ! So i am trying to stick to a routine to shift his mindset. he still cries for milk at night. What is your meal timing and if you have a fussy eater when did it get better?

Hey! Is anyone else’s baby on this milk and would mind me asking you some questions please?

What’s everyone’s opinions on SMA and Aptamil formula? My little girl is currently on cow and gate and been told to switch formulas

Please include age and ounces

My little boy is really tensing and fussing when drinking formula. Moved him from Kendamil to Kendamil organic and hasn’t really made a difference. Thinking of moving him to goat. Has anyone done this and had good results?

Do you do pouches/ purees or BLW?
