My daughter is 9 months old and enjoys both food and milk, but sometimes I don’t feel like there is enough hours in the day to give her all 4/5 bottles and then for her to have 3 meals, dessert and snacks… am I doing something wrong or are they supposed to be eating this much? For context, she’s formula fed
Has anyone else found that if they don't dry out the base and anti colic valve that it gives that awful wet sucking sound when baby is drinking? I use the MAM microwave steam steriliser rather than doing them individually for 3 min in the microwave.
Looking for some help: Been seen privately today and dr presumes CMPA, they’ve told me to try Pepti 1 for one week, and if baby doesn’t get better she has given me a prescription for neocate. I’ve always used ready made aptamil, so have no idea how to make bottles, I use mam bottles and don’t have time to wait fo...
Up until the last day or so my husband has been doing all the bottle prep but as he’s back at work next week (LO is 23 days old) I decided I should probably learn…I’m so confused re the MAM self sterilising bottles. The instructions say you need to dry after sterilising (using microwave) but also say in order for th...
How do you go from EBF to formula. I would like to swap after Christmas but don’t know how to start the switch
Sounds stupid.. 7.5 months in but how do you make up formula? Everything I’ve seen online is different to what it says on the tin? My lg has been exclusively breastfeed until now but want to get her used to having formula before my return to work. So I have few questions about formula feeding… Can I sterilise the ...
What alternatives are people using, or where are you buying if you can still find it!? X
My LO is now 3 days old and doesn’t drink more than 2 oz a time every four hours which we have to wake her every time for and the midwife said this isn’t enough is anyone else In the same boat?
Hi all, my 4.5 month old has been on Kendamil since birth. We started in the organic one then switched to the non organic one because of supply issues. We then stuck to the non organic one, but now this is out of stock too. I'm fed up with Kendamil supply issues and want to switch brands. Just want some recommendat...
hey mamas! so, i know babies grow at their own pace but i have been a little tiny bit concerned with my babies weight. she is 5 months old and is in the 50th percentile for her weight WHICH is very normal average for her age (or so i’m told) however, my mama heart is sad to see every other baby her age, chubby and h...
How much are you feeding your baby, and at what rate? Aloe (09/05) eats 5 oz every 3-5 hours, and sleeps thru the night (6-8 hours). Just try to see if we're basically on track!
My daughter is 6 and a half weeks old and looking to introduce 1 bottle of formula a day but not sure how much to offer? I know every baby is different but just looking for a rough idea of how much she may need!
We started weaning my son about 4 weeks ago. He took to it really quickly and soon started refusing milk as he just seemed to want solids. This means we’ve ramped up to 3 meals a day quite quickly and his milk quantity has dropped off. He’s on formula and has dropped to about 500ml a day (he was having 1000). Is...
I currently offer 4 bottles a day but LO is really starting to reject them. So perhaps I need to drop them. What times are you offering your LOs bottles please?
Please can anyone with a toddler and a 5 week old or newborn share their daily sample routine with me , as I have a 2 year old and a 5 week old so I’m quite struggling as my 2 year old doesn’t seem to Understand basic words like ‘stop ‘yet🥹 Thank you
What formula are people planning to feed their babies?
Anyone’s else’s 9 month old (10 month on 23rd) not drinking his formula milk? He has a bottle in the morning and a bottle in the evening, offer 7oz but leaves some, 2-3oz, try offering formula multiple times a day but he spits it out or keeps pushing bottle away? I started mixing it with some of his porridge, giving...
I bought some and found it convenient for night times when I don’t fell like preparing it
Hi my little one was on 3/4 7oz bottles and 3 meals. She now is only taken 3/4 oz a bottle. I’m really trying to offer more bottle but won’t take any. I’m really worried she not getting what she should be re milk
I've waited to buy formula so it would be more “fresh,” but now I can’t find any. I'm starting to panic, as I don’t plan to BF. Has anyone bought some recently?
