Hi, I’ve been exclusively bf my 4 month little boy and I am trying to introduce a bottle but not having any luck what so ever, does anyone have any tips that could help please? Thanks 🤞🏻😊🤞🏻

Will I need a steriliser if we plan on using Mam bottles and dummies? They can both be sterilised in the microwave without a physical steriliser. We are limited on counter space and just looking at our options.

How much milk a day are your babies having? My baby is having x4 bottles a day and 3 meals. Not sure how much milk they should have and there’s no guidance on this anywhere 🫣🫣🫣

I have a few questions on baby bottles…I breast feed but express enough for one bottle a day, which baby gets at night as part of the bedtime routine. We have 3-4 bottles in rotation, depending on if I’ve needed to pump more in the day or not, but generally there’s always one in the fridge. My questions are… 1) do...

Anyone use these? My daughter is one month + 5 days old has really bad reflux gulps too fast when feeding. Currently using Tomee Tipee anti colic bottles. For some reason they were great when she was newly newly born but now that she is over one month there is leakage when she feeds at the sides of mouth. Her colic...

The shoot only lasted a min until she decided to start playing with eggs 😭 It was so much more easier at 1-4 months

We're about to start the transition to cows milk next week, mixing formula and cows milk together (we tried to go straight milk and she won't entertain it lol)..while shes still having formula would you still be sterilising bottles etc?

Is anyone feeding a 7oz bottle yet? Our son is draining a 6oz bottle every 2.5 to 3 hours, he is on the 99th centile for height so he is a big baby. Any advice or experience would be great as our first was a terrible feedee so we are not used to this xx

I was just wondering if anyone is struggling with their doctors and their little one? My little one is on Pepti 1, has 6oz per feed (10 weeks old), and is drinking anywhere from 6-8 bottles a day. They prescribe us 400g tins x8 on a repeat prescription. The last time we collected was on the 4th of April, and I re...

Hi! I was wondering about bottle sizes - how many should I buy of the smaller size (150ml) and how many of the bigger size (260ml) Thanks!

Should I change milk? He's been having one 5oz bottle a day for coming up to 2 weeks and he started having really runny green poos a week ago. They got a bit better then have gotten worse again. He's sometimes really straining and only doing a small amount, it's makes me so sad to see him do it 😫 any advice please?…

Planning to go on holiday in May with my 7 month old, he’s formula fed, what do I do about formula and bringing boiled water and rapid cool to the airport etc? And also where do I put the ready made bottles? It’s stressing me out!

My little boy is exclusively breast fed and 10 weeks old , he was born 6lb 9 and now only 9lb 12 and still fitting in newborn , we also had health visitor and she said he has gone down a centile on the chart and may not be getting enough milk wich has made me go round in circles worrying, has anyone been in the same...

My little boy who is nearly 10 weeks takes 3oz every 2-3 hours. I worry it isn’t enough! I was at one point giving him 4oz but he was so uncomfortable afterwards. He was sometimes finishing the full 4oz but it wasn’t very often. He is gaining weight fine and wakes maybe twice during the night. He is now 11pound 1. H...

Hey guys so I posted a few weeks ago asking about formula. I’m going back to work next month and my baby is breastfed. For reference I work night shifts on weekends and my baby still has milk at night. That’s why I am trying to give him formula during the nights. However I no longer produce enough to pump and brea...

Hello Girlies, My LO is exclusively on formula since she was born. Now she is almost 3 months old and whoever sees her says she is thin and not that chubby like a baby who feeds on breast milk. I want to know that babies who are on formula milk don't gain much weight ? Are they average weight gainers ? How do I inc...

My 7 month old boy, who is EBF, doesn't seem to be satisfied with his milk anymore. He gets frustrated after a feed and will eat loads of solids straight after. Could this mean I no longer produce enough milk for him? Should I supplement with formula? He started waking frequently for a feed too, which led to cosleep...

Going to lanzarote and wondering how to make formula, can you just use tap water and boil in kettle, or do I need to get bottled water to boil? Thanks
