Since then she has shown signs of constipation - g...

Do any actually work

Does anyone have their combi feeding from birth schedule? I know every baby is different but just so we have a rough idea 🥰 Can you do every other bottle formula? Can you offer formula till your milk comes in and then start introducing pumped milk?

Has anyone moved away from mam bottles now baby is bigger? I'm thinking about changing to tommee tippee as they're easier to clean/less bits but worried about wind and whether it's too soon to change him to a new teat etc. we have only just started weaning about 10 days ago and going slowly

How much formula does your newborn/one month old eats at each feed? I feel like my one month old eats too much!!!

I AM SO CONFUSED! Please tell me what you are doing with cows milk if your baby has turned one? So my little one was on two formula feeds a day, I swapped these to cows milk when she turned one. She didn’t like a cup even though she loves her water from a cup, so I got a slightly more grown up bottle (lol) still a ...

Hi mamas, apologies if this has been posted and discussed here before! I’ve just started combi feeding my lo and heard/read good things about Kendamil. Problem is the formula powder for first stage (cow/pink) is sold out absolutely everywhere! Is it always this hard to find gold? 😅
