Hey - looking for advice about formula quantity by weight. Weighed my little girl (4 1/2 months) yesterday and she's now 7.98kg. I was told by the doctor / HV that she should get 150ml per kg of weight which takes her to just under 1200ml per day - 42oz. I'd been giving her 37oz a day and now I'm wondering how I'...

My 5 month old baby gets SOOO fussy around her 4 pm feeding and I think it’s because my milk flow is the slowest and it feels like I don’t have enough milk. Has anyone switched from EBF to supplementing with formula for 1 or 2 feeding a day? I have some breast milk stored away and I’ve been slowly using it. I just c...

Do they come sterilised? What ones should I buy? There seems to be so many and not sure what is cheap rubbish and what’s actually sterilised and safe for using. Links would be helpful. Thanks!

I’m planning on going for the MAM bottles and have been recommended to go straight for the bigger bottles. What size teats do I buy separately 0 or 1? Or do you recommend using the smaller bottles first? Any advice is great

Anyone else’s little one turned 5 months and wants constant milk during the day? I’m lucky she doesn’t have any overnight she sleeps well but I’ve gone from 4 bottles to 6 not complaining just wondering if anyone else is going through this?

So my little girl is 3 months old and exclusively formula fed. She's currently on 6 ounces of C&G first infant and had no issues until now.

How much and how often are your babies feeding? In hospital they were giving us 30-40ml of kendamil for him after starting on 20ml and said he should be fed every 3-4 hours. Since getting home he’s drinking easily 40-50ml and would drink more if we let him (using ready to feed 70ml kendamil bottles) wants to be fed ...

Hey, My little one is 15 months and I am giving him 360ml of milk. Once in the morning (180ml) and the next in the afternoon (180ml). I read a lot of places saying don't fill a baby’s tummy with milk and give them more food. Wanted to know what everyone is doing?
