Will still wake up frequently in the night and only go back to sleep with a bottle Just wondering if anyone else went through this and how you...

Please recommend.. I’m using avent Philips I don’t think it’s colic free

My baby is 4 weeks, she’s on 4 ounces and almost every single feed she will fall asleep after 2 ounces, or will stop for a bit then want the rest about 20 mins later. This morning we tried using the little bottles from when we were in hospital and she downed them no problem. I think the teat is faster flowing than t...

Earlier on this week I decided to start combi feeding my LO. She is 3 months old and has been EBF until now. For context, I decided to start introducing formula as my milk supply seems to disappear in the evenings and I used up all my freezer supply. Ive always had a good supply in the mornings (can pump off 120+m...

My little girl (4 months old, fully formula feed) is starting to refuse milk, she’ll go 6/7 hours in the day without a feed.

My little boy is now 11 months old, and he really has little interest in his formula milk now, eats his three meals a day and drinks plenty of water. The bottle before bed he literally refuses it. Anyone elses little ones the same? And what is everyone doing about it?

Has anyone’s 6 month old suddenly lost interest in their milk intake recently? I’m not sure whether it’s a developmental change, a preference to food since starting weaning or teething related but my little boy would easily drain 35-40oz during the day and I’m lucky if I can get him to have half of that these days. ...

Hi all, Probably a silly question but just wondered if anyone had any advice about milk for their toddler abroad? My 16 month old still likes a bottle of milk in the morning when he wakes up and just before bed. We are staying at an all inclusive hotel in Mallorca, I don’t think there will be a fridge in the room, m...

Guys I’ve stopped breastfeeding and now full time with formula. I’ve been mixing my daughters formula with sterilise water from b my the kettle but all over TikTok people are using the hotshot method.

How long do milk storage bags say sterile ? I've got a lot of unused bags left from my first daughter ( 1.5 years old ) and wondered if I can use them for my next baby?

I need help and this may be silly questions but I’m new to this so sorry. I’ve been expressing for my baby since birth and he has been on only breastmilk. He has 120ml per feed and as I’ve learnt babies on breastmilk only don’t have too much more as breastmilk changes where with formula you need more as they grow. ...

My LB has always been bad about eating too much. He was eating 8 oz by three months every feeding, meaning every three hours basically. I took him to the doctor because he is NOT a chunky baby. He’s 30th percentile in weight, which I know a lot of people say percentiles don’t really matter, but for him to be eating ...
