Breast milk to cows milk transition

I started transitioning my 12 month old to cows milk over the weekend and so far it’s not going well….. he will barely taste it and shows very little interest. I’m starting small with only about 2 oz. Any suggestions. He seems to like his breastmilk VERY warm and I give him the milk cold. So maybe warming a bit wo...

Slings

I literally just can’t hack a fabric sling. It hurts my arms, my daughter is screaming as soon as I try and out one on. Same with the buckle slings. I can’t go anywhere or do anything because my pram is so inefficient, my local shop doesn’t fit it. I really wanted to be a sling wearer but I’m close to giving up

Waking after bedtime

Hey Mummas! The last few weeks my LO has been waking up between 30-50 minutes after being put down for bed time. I think it’s what’s called a “false start” but I’ve tried everything from later bedtime, earlier bedtime, sticking to wake windows, leaving him to get slightly overtired. I just can’t figure out what it...

Is this normal?!

My baby usually takes 5/6oz sometimes 7oz every 2/3 hours through the day. This morning he had a feed about half 8 then slept until 12pm. By that point you’d think he’d be starving. Well i did. He only had 4oz then a few mins later puked it back up. So i’ve left him as he was to just sit up and play a bit and was wa...
