My baby is starting to feed 5oz… my trouble is that I don’t know how to make that half oz without doing 6oz in a bottle since the formula I use is 1 scoop per 2 oz. How do you manage that half oz without wasting formula? Just looking for some tips from mamas who might have some easier ways of doing this without was...

Looking for recommendations… We currently have the Baby Breezer water steriliser and dryer however the bottom where you put the water has started to burn and also the limescale after every use is getting ridiculous so we are thinking of changing it however are undecided on weather to get another water or UV Sterilis...

I bf and pump but have started combo feeding when I’m extremely tired, or unable to bf/pump. I’ve tried Bobbie formula and Bubs. Bobbie(cow milk based) gave my baby lots of gas, but so far she’s been doing very well with Bubs(goat milk based). I also didn’t expect to feel so guilty about formula feeding 😭

First time mom to-be, and while I’m planning to breastfeed, I want to have formula on hand in case of any issues. Which do y’all recommend & why?

How much milk are you guys giving your 1 weeks old? I’m still hospital with lil one and they are making me do up 100 ml a feed I feel like his tummy is only little is 100ml too much or am I just over worried?

Baby girl is 4 weeks old and has just started finishing 4oz of kendamil usually at each feed, however, around her last bottle before bedtime she screams for more, I’ll make her another bottle and she will have another 1-2oz so can be around 6oz for one feed. Anyone else experienced this? Is it normal?? She just st...

I have had a few people advise me to get a prep machine and bottle steriliser. For context, I’m a FTM and plan on breastfeeding as much as possible. But am open to formula if I’m unable to for any reason. So I think the steriliser would help the most.

I need advice. How to get my 7 month old to drink formula. I have been trying for over a month now.

Hola mamas, my LO has 1 bottle of formula a day but will have more when we go away for a weekend soon when they’ll have a combo of expressed milk and formula. I know if they are exclusively having breastmilk it sticks at 4oz per feed but if it is formula, should they have more? SO looking forward to sleep that wee...

My LO has just begun his weaning journey. He is 6 months old. I've been introducing new veg/fruit tastes once per day. Just wondering when is the best time to drop a bottle? He is currently on 6 bottles per day (1200ml). With food, it's very little amounts for taste. Thankyou

Does anyone’s babies still feed every 2-2.5hrs? Sometimes 3hrs if i’m lucky. My son (15 weeks) has 7/8 bottles in 24hrs (includes 2 night feeds). He’s on 6oz per bottle (formula). It feels like a lot but he is still on the 50th percentile and has been since the womb!

Could you please advice. My baby boy is 9 months old and we are still doing 4 times a day milk (180ml) and twice Per day food. So basically milk at 7am/ 11am/4pm and 7pm And then food at 8.30 and 13.30 Is that still ok? How schedule looks like?

Hi! My 8 almost 9 month old won’t entertain his milk at all now unless it’s morning bottle and night time bottle so that’s only 12 oz per day. He has 3 meals a day and some snacks it’s not as if he’s not eating at all I just cannot get him to drink the milk!!!! Any tips? How much do your wee ones have? Thank you...

My lb is 6 months old. I have been combo feeding since the beginning with more breast milk than formula. Recently it seems after breast milk he’s still hungry and I am topping up with formula. I’m feeling conflicted about whether I should move into formula altogether. It seems it could even help with his sleep as he...

Hey! How much milk should my 9 week old drink and how often? Currently having 5 ounces every 3 hours.

Help please! My LB is now 11 weeks old (corrected age 6 weeks). He's been on SMA First Steps since the beginning. He's spitting up a lot and was prescribed Gaviscon. Even though the Gaviscon helps with the spitting up, he is often unsettled after feedings, very fussy, crying and seems to be in pain. GP said it's...

I chose to use the Dr. Brown bottles for my LO because they work the best for us. When it comes to washing the bottles I rinse all the pieces with water and throw them into a bin filled with hot soapy water, rinsed again then put into our baby brezza sterilizer. My husband complains that the process takes to long an...

Hi all, My daughter is going onto the bigger class at nursery and they said they don’t give formula in this room, they switch to cows milk and from a beaker.

Someone is giving us an old bike of theirs and wants to give it to us but my LO is only just 2, and I don’t think he will be anywhere near riding it yet. I’m thinking more of a balance bike, but yes when did your child ride a pedal bike with stabilisers?
