Can someone share a feeding schedule for a 7-month-old? I currently offer my baby breakfast and dinner, but I've noticed he's drinking less formula now. Is this normal? He used to have 5 oz every 3 hours before starting solids. My schedule below for reference: 5:00-5:30 AM: 4 oz formula (offered 5oz) 6:30-7:00 AM:...

My little boy is just turning 14 weeks, he has been exclusively on SMA Pro formula since around 6 weeks old when my milk production stopped but was being combi fed previous to this.

I’m EBF and my little boy is 5 months. I’ve tried mam and tommee tippee bottles but he just bites the teat. Any bottle recommendations and advice on how to get him to like the bottles?

I think my little one is having a growth spurt and needing more milk, she's breastfed, I express also so my other half can feed her and at night she has a bottle of formula. How old is your baby and how much are they fed each feed? I know it's different for every baby but looking for a rough idea. Thank you

Are you all still sterilising your little ones bottles and dummies? This poll is just out of curiosity as my boy is putting everything in his mouth nowadays 😂wondering what the point is (he is 9months)

My baby girl is 11 weeks nearly 12, and I’m finding one week she is dieting 5 ounce bottles and then the following week is only taking 2 ounces at each feed. Health visitor thinks it could be an intolerance to the milk and to try a lactose free milk try getting it prescribe, she screams while on the bottle and screa...

How much prescription milk are you given at a time and for what period (UK)? We are trialling aptamil pepti 1 and the doctor is currently giving it us in such small amounts, we are on week 2 and I've had to ask for more again. I had a look at how much it costs to buy and it is so expensive when compared to ordinary ...

First time mum here and I have a few questions!! How many bottles should my son be on he’s currently having 3 but feel he’s ready to be cut down to 2 - he will be one at the end of February.

My little boy still wakes 2-3 times a night for milk. Is this normal? I've tried just giving him a dummy and rocking him but he wants his milk. He also has 5-6 bottles a day and isn't a great eater. I'm at a loss as I know he needs to be weaning off formula soon. Anyone in a similar situation or have any advice? Thanks

Ok so this is my first kid so don't judge if this sounds silly. My daughter turned 3 in November. I read online somewhere on the Doncaster council website I'm sure that children that turn 3 from September to December 2021, are supposed to start nursery in the term starting January 2025 so basically the term after ...

I need some advice! My supply has gone down drastically at 8 months which means I'll be introducing formula to my baby so he gets a full feed. Any recommendations for formula?

They say they are for 6 months + ...anyone using them yet or still on the one below?

This has probably been talked about, but how are you introducing cows' milk? I have started to put it into his ready break and weetabix. But what would I do next? Would you give him half formula and half cows milk or just a little bit of cows' milk here and there 🤔 and then would it still be recommended they have…

So my boy started out being combi fed at birth but ended up being a formula baby pretty soon after. He’s been consistent with his formula feeds from birth and he moved up to 7oz at 6 weeks and would consistently have 6-7oz every 4 hours. He’s now nearly 10 weeks and all of a sudden his feeds are all over the place. ...

At what age did you stop giving you LO a bottle of milk before bed?
