Is anyone else’s 5 week old drinking 4-5oz per feed..?

Can I ask what everybody’s 4/5month olds are like for a schedule with their formula feeds? My girl is all over the place at the moment. She’s only taking around 23oz a day which HV said according to her weight she should be more like 30oz but as she seems fine, she’s just going to monitor her growth more closely for...

Which bottles have you found are the best? Tommee tippee natural start with the anti colic valve or mam anti colic bottles? Thanks ladies x

Hi all I combi feed and have noticed my baby has more of an allergy or intolerance to my breast milk then he does to formula. He gets slight hives/rash not very noticeable but because I’m so close to his face all the time I see it and he seems to spit up more and farts There’s dairy in his formula so wondering wha...

My little one is 6 weeks old now, and I've noticed she’s taking a bit longer to finish her bottle lately! Depending on her mood, she drinks anywhere from 60 to 120 ml. She often nods off while feeding also. Any tips? Thank you!

Anyone’s 2 year old still drinking milk from bottle? I cannot get mine off it. Managed the dummy, but the bottle is an absolute no go at the moment 😫

Just curious on what formula non breastfeeding mums are using when baby’s here, Im strongly leaning towards aptamil but want to know what everyone else is using 😊

Hey all, my LO is almost 2 and a half and he is still drinking 4 ounces of formula 3-4 times a day alongside 3 meals and snacks. I want to stop the formula now. I don't think he needs it at all and I want to move on from bottles. Any suggestions how to do it???

Wondering how people make bottles on the go? Up until recently my baby has been exclusively breastfed but my supply has dipped so we are having to do a lot more formula recently. She categorically refuses to have room temp so ready to feed is not an option for us annoyingly I know nuby rapid cools are popular but ...

Does anyone actually just sterilise these as if they demonstrate, in the microwave, no steriliser, just pull apart, boiling water and ping In there for 3 mins? Looks easy to me without other faffy stuff like the good old days haha x

We are going on all inclusive family holiday at the end of May to canary islands and our little one will be 14 month.. How will it work for milk feeds?? 😫 Shes on full fat cows milk. Stupid question, will the Spanish equivalent of full fat milk be ok to give her ? Will the milk at the all inclusive be ok to give…

My boys decided he will not drink his milk, I’ve tried different formulas/ RTF bottles ect and his just not drinking it - I’m think I’m going to have try whole milk as want him having some and surely that’s better than none?? His only 8 months and I know they advise not to give before 1 year

Just wanted some advice on bottles… I used tommee tippede with my first and got on well with them etc but I’ve been looking at the mam ones the last couple of days? What do you all use/have used? Recommendations please! 🙏

Hiya, Anyone else have a small baby? My little boy is on 3rd centile (weighing 4.6kg at 10 weeks). He is EBF and I’m not keen on introducing formula. We saw a paediatrician today (referred by the GP after his 8-weeks check up as he had fallen a few centiles). He said he’s healthy but I need to try and pump to introd...

Formula fed babies

Any formula and bottles recommendations to start combi feeding?

What’s the longest you guys have gone out with your babies? My son will be 15 weeks this Sunday and I still have anxiety about going out longer than 2 hours 😅 anxiety from how we’re supposed to manage timing of preparing the bottles, how to make them last and how to prepare bottles if you’re out without a kettle.…

So we had mold on our pushchair (probably due to a leak my partner had in old car) so I cleaned it all with distilled white vinegar which I’ve seen a lot about cleaning mold with vinegar but now the issue is even after I’ve washed it all down with warm soapy water it smells like a fish and chip shop🤣 I’m going to…

Baby is 8 weeks will it be ok to change from mam bottles to Tommie tippie? I’m sick of sterilising 100 parts 100 times a day😂😅

How many bottles does your 3 month old have a day and how many oz
