How many bottles a day

Just curious how many bottles everyone’s LO’s are on now they’re hitting the 10 month mark. I’ve seen a few posts where some babies a similar age are only having milk morning and night at this stage. My daughter is on x4 8oz bottles a day. She has breakfast, dinner and two snacks. I’ve been trying her with a lunch b...

Feeding

My boy is 4 weeks now, I am breastfeeding and from yesterday he had some crying because he was hungry, not to long after he eats. It seems that my milk supply dropped or it's not enough for him to be full. So I introduced formula, but I wondered how it's possible for him from a day to another that he is not full any...

Bottle help

Hiya, my LG suffers with really bad trapped wind. We have found with the tommee tippee bottles we have been using by the end of her feed it's mostly bubbles in the bottle which can't be helping. (When making it we already swirl it rather than shaking to help too) can anyone recommend any bottles good for colic? Or a...

7 week old only drinks 2oz

My 7 week old is combi fed, when she is due a bottle feed she’ll only take 2oz, max 3oz after a lot of persuasion, otherwise she’s quite happy after 2oz. She feeds quite often, so I’m guessing she’s happy having little and often. She’s gaining weight and maintaining her centile. Does anyone else’s little one do the ...

Formula feeding not meeting amount

So my LO is on a low centile, he's not been weighed for a while but always seems to be getting heavier. I think he must be around 7Kg so the formula hes meant to have is over 1000ml. He normally has around 800 maybe 900 occasionally. Does anyone have the same? I've never been able to get him to increase
