We’re starting to introduce a bottle of expressed milk to our 7 week old so that I can leave him with dad for a few hours but I’m really stuck on how to know how much to give him. This morning we offered him 5oz which he gulped down and immediately wanted more, so I put him on the boob and he fed for another 5 mins....
Do they tell you if your child is advanced or behind etc? I think my baby is advanced for their age but I am wondering if they will tell me this at the review.
Hello girls what’s the best formula for colic and constipation?
I’m now giving my son only a bottle in the morning (5 ounces) and one at night (7 ounces). In addition to breakfast, lunch and dinner, struggling with whether I should give a snack in between too.. What’s everyone else’s schedule like if they are also on two bottles / milk feeds only. Thanks!
My 13month old boy has always fed to sleep or been swayed to sleep. He’s always been a terrible sleeper and has never slept more than four hours at one time. I always need to feed him back to sleep. For those who are transitioning to dairy milk but with a baby that relies on a bottle at night, what are you doing? A...
Is anyone using teat ‘X’? We’re in size 3 but the last week she’s been taking a couple of sips then stopping and doing this for half the bottle then won’t drink anymore for 20/30 mins. Just wondering if the flow is too slow now as she drinks from a Tommee tippee beaker with water with is free flow. Or wasn’t sure i...
My little one who is 4m only drinks 4oz of milk and usually every hour, he is on cow and gate milk. He only ever drinks 4oz, if I try to leave a bigger gap between his feeds he screams because he is hungry, I read online that 4month olds should be having 6-8oz but mine isn’t. Am I doing something wrong?
ADVICE PLEASE - what formula are people choosing for their babies? There’s so many out there and I don’t know where to start in choosing which one to give her? What is everyone else using or planning to use? 🩷
Hi ladies, how do you find is best to heat up expressed milk in mam bottles? I read somewhere you can’t stand them in water like most bottles because of the anti colic ring at the base but I’m not sure if this is true or where I even saw it!
My daughter is 20 months old and LOVES her night time bottle. I want to cut this tonight (we kept it for so long because 1. we didn’t have it in us to overcome the hurdle yet and 2. We had a big overseas trip planned & wanted to keep it as a comfort measure). I know she’ll probably need extra comfort and reassurance...
How many ml/oz per day does your baby have? Mine is 4 weeks tomorrow and he has 120ml every 3h but the total amount in the day seems a bit too much so I'm worried I'm overfeeding him 🙈
We got the cordless momcosy one but I don't like it as you cannot sterilise the main part. Any suggestions that would work with the MAM bottles? Thanks!
Hi everyone I was just wondering what teat size everyone is using? I'm currently using MAM bottles and was wondering what signs to look out for to move up to the next teat
Hey everyone I was just wondering what teat size everyone is using? I'm currently using MAM bottles and was wondering what signs to look out for to move up to the next teat?
We use the Milton cold water steriliser and we have done for the past 12 weeks, me and my partner have had dry cracked hands and I’ve started developing a rash/dry skin on the backs of my hands, we think it’s from the solution (I’ve added photos of my hands in the comments) I’m just wondering if it’s safe to use l...
How many total ounces are your 5/6 month olds eating per day (formula)? How many ounces/times per day?
DISCLAIMER: I'M NOT TRYING TO MAKE ANYONE FEEL BAD ABOUT USING FORMULA. NO JUDGEMENT ABOUT OTHERS, JUST MYSELF HAHA. Can someone just bring me back to reality? I have a 6 week old son, my second boy. He's been solely breastfed. Recently, I've been doing formula just if we are going to be somewhere that makes breas...
Hi, my almost 3 year old is refusing milk most days. He has his morning milk but not having any through the day or before bed. Have you experienced this with your little one? Any tips on what worked for you and your little one? Just a bit concerned that he is not getting enough calcium.
Has anyone used a UV steriliser for their pump parts? I am too scared to try and wondering if any mums has tried this and worked. I am getting tired of washing, boiling, air drying them. Help a mama out. Thank you.
Does anyone know what the difference is between these other than the price?
