We suspect my son may have a cows milk allergy or may have a lactose intolerance causing reflux and other symptoms. Is there any harm in us switching to a goats milk formula to see if it’s gentler on his tummy and helps with some symptoms?
Hello all, my LO was EBF up to 13 months but my supply has completely stopped so we have now tried other alternatives. However I was wondering how much milk is everyone giving their LO. Currently has 200ml in the post lunch nap and then before bed another 200ml, but wakes up 3-4 times at night to have water…(not su...
Hello mums, I’m first time mum and doing combi feeding to my 8 weeks baby. Any tips on how shall i increase my milk supply so that i feed him more of my breast milk rather than formula??
My little girl is on cows milk, we’re going to an all inclusive hotel, am I being silly by asking will they have full fat cows milk she can drink, she’s on two bottles a day? Or do I need to bring something else to substitute it? Can someone also give me any tips on how to keep an 18 month old somewhat occupied on...
Just wondering when you knew it was time to go up a teat size and what signs baby was displaying? My baby is nearly 11 weeks and we’ve been on MAM size 1 teat since he was about 3 weeks. Have noticed during his feeds recently he’s getting fussy part way through the feed, doesn’t seem to be sucking properly and som...
When did your babies start smiling and discovering their hands? My baby girl is 6 weeks old but I haven’t got a full on smile from her and she hasn’t discovered her hands yet. Should I be concerned?
I’ve been giving LO single veg purées for 8 days now but not continuously, we had a weeks break in between. Is it ok to start two food purées in a couple days already?? Don’t know why but feeling so lost when it comes to weaning, I’ve read so much to prepare and it all just confused me more it seems 😅
How do I dry my baby bottles once they are sterilised quickly please, like if sterilised and then needed straight away for packing for a trip or for using then etc etc?
has anyone cold turkey switched ebf to formula? how do i know if my baby is taking the formula well? He is 5 weeks, he didn’t seem to ever feel content or relax after breastfeeding so i started pumping and giving him the bottle which helped but not enough. yesterday i started formula during the day and breastfee...
My son has been extremely fussy with his formula/bottles for a few weeks now. He’s weaning fine but milk has been a huge struggle, hardly taking anything. I’m wondering now if I should change bottles. Would it be worth doing this to get him to drink it? He’s using tommee tippee atm.
So anyone who’s little one has already turned one when have you been offering milk as im gunna be using toddler milk stage 3 and it says to give 2 150ml bottles a day
Hi Moms, I have a 13 month old daughter. Soon turning 14months. She has transitioned to whole milk. And takes about 4 bottles a day 5-6oz each. She takes 3 meals and a snack. I was wondering whether its time to drop a bottle? She goes to daycare and takes 3 bottles there. Any schedule recommended?
Is anyone else still sterilising there babies bottles I do with my little girl and people keep saying wow you shouldn’t be doing it anymore they put things in there mouths all the time but I’m just not convinced it’s clean enough when I don’t sterilise them.
My little boy has been on Puramino since he was 4 weeks old and he’s now 6 months old. There’s a shortage at the moment so we’ve had to switch to SMA Alfamino which I’ve been trying to give him this week but he doesn’t like it at all. He cries and hits the bottle away. It’s a lot thicker than Puramino and it smells....
My LO has been taking a lot of milk the last two weeks (approx 35oz) then today has decided to not really take any (11oz so far today). Don’t know if any other LOs have been through this? Don’t know if she is perhaps at the end of a growth spurt but very strange!
Little girl is 4 months- have exclusively breastfed to this point. She is starting to really fuss during feeds and is very upset so worrying she’s not getting enough milk. Have decided to start introducing formula. How many ounces should I be looking at giving per bottle?
Anyone else find the newborn stage an absolute killer. I see so many posts etc about missing it and how people loved it, but I found it sooo hard!
Hey ladies, which brand of formula is easiest to digest for newborn?x
My baby has a total of around 1000ml a day still, but also has his lunch and dinner. He’s not overweight at all. Should I still reduce his milk intake nevertheless? He still wakes up 2x per night for milk 400 total) and drinks the other 600 ml throughout the day.
Hello, we've recently introduced occasional formula bottles to my previously EBF baby and I think he might be a little lactose intolerant because whenever we give him a bottle, he gets very gassy and uncomfortable. The thing is the first ingredient for lactose free formula is glucose syrup, so sugar??!! And then oil...
