Hi! I’m looking for a bit of advice, this is totally me future proofing as I like to be prepared😂 My little girl is 7 weeks old, at the minute we very much sleep when needed and where needed, we feed on demand, so on and so forth. But with time flying, I’m very aware that soon we will need to introduce routine (…
Hiya, just a question. My little 11 month old has just gone completely off of his milk he won’t drink his whole bottles anymore and is just starting to prefer food over bottles. I don’t know if this is something normal or something I should get checked. We try to do 4 bottles of 180 ml - 210mls a day still as I kno...
First time mum and baby boy is a week old. I’m getting a bit overwhelmed with working out the best way to tackle night feeds, he is formula fed. What works best for you guys in terms of making bottles?
So I seen this in Smyth's the other day and it confused me, like they've brought out an item that boils water to put it into the flask for a ridiculous price? It's basically a kettle as a fancy machine with the Nuby rapid cool. Honestly why would you buy this... Why spent £100 for a kettle which is basically what th...
What teat sizes are your LO on ? I’m currently on teat no.2 with MAM bottles however I’m not sure if I should go to 3. My LO is 10 weeks. I have been in size 2 with him since he was around 3/4 weeks
Me again! I’ve finally got my pepti to start with, but neither my health visitor or my doctor have given me any information of how to introduce it! Don’t you love it when you leave numerous messages but they aren’t responded to 🫠 Any tips would be so helpful - I’ve read about potentially adding alcohol free…
My lo is 11mo today!🥰🥳🥹 He has 5-6oz at 7am, 11.30am, 3,30pm and 7.30pm. He has milk before solids. Which bottle to ditch and how? I'm also on last Kendamil2 tin and would like to start Kendamil3. So ditching a bottle and switching formula would likely happen at the same time. How much of Kendamil3 to give?
I took my baby to his 4 months appointment and they weighed him at 12lbs 7oz. I go back on the 10th next week to check on his weight. He was eating breastmilk an average 30oz a day. But since he isn’t where he should be weight wise, I was told to start purées and fortifying my milk. Well now he doesn’t really want t...
So I have a almost two month old (he’ll be two months on the 12th of this month) baby and he has been struggling to gain more weight and I feel like a terrible mother for that but I’m trying. I was feeding 2 oz in the beginning after he was born, then bumped up to 4, then bumped back down to 3 because he kept spitti...
What is everyone’s 9-10 month olds routine when it comes to milk and weaning/food. I feel like I’m struggling to find the balance/right amount for my lb. How many oz and when, how many meals, what kind of meals, etc?! Would love to know. I’m aware that every baby is different and has different needs. TIA 🩷🩵
hi all! we have started to introduce formula. is there a way I can pre make it so I can give the bottle straight away? does anyone have any tips? I just find it all a bit faffy. thanks 😁
So for the past two weeks my 7 week old has been hard to settle at night around his bed time at 7pm up until about 10. i use the tommee tippee advanced anti colic bottles but they don’t seem to be helping. I’ve tired switching to dr browns but he won’t take to the teat as it’s different to the tommee tippee bottle...
Has anyone started nesting yet? I’m really hoping it kicks in soon because I could really do with something giving me a kick up the arse. The motivation is definitely harder with a toddler.
Hey all, is anyone aware of when should we do christening in order to be able to get into good Catholic schools later kn? Im very religious and really what to get my baby girl into this but heard some that you have to do it within the first month of birth
Is there a way to use the rapid cool without needing to wash and sterilise it between feeds?
How many bottles is your little one having a day ? My little boy isn’t really interested in them but eats 3 healthy meals and snacks throughout the day. He would normally have one when he wakes up one around 1:30 / 2 and one before bed. But yesterday he ate so much lunch I didn’t offer him it because I didn’t want h...
Any mums using CMPA formula prescribed? My girl has been on aptamil pepti 1 for just over a week and we have a review on Valentine’s Day to see if her symptoms have stopped etc and if they have then they want us to go back to the old formula to show that it’s that causing the symptoms in order to get a diagnosis. ...
Anyone started planning for their child’s 2nd birthday yet? I don’t have any idea on what to do and if it’s even to early to start planning 😂
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make formula prep easier/quicker? I looked at the Tommee Tippee Perfect Prep machine, but that only makes feeds of 4oz or larger, but we're doing 2oz top-ups.
Looking for advice, my nine month old has pretty much dropped her daytime bottles with her now having three meals a day and snacks, the only downfall to this is she’s not really having much water. She won’t take it herself from a tommee tippee she just throws it, she only really drinks some if I take the lid off and...
