So little one is 6 months next week. She is fine on formula and happily takes a bottle. Currently 50/50. We have started solids this week as she is clearly ready for it. I have decided to stop breast feeding all together (currently am and pm and 2 pumping sessions) My question is how do you space out bottle feed...

I go away next week and my little girl won’t drink her milk unless it’s warm (won’t drink at room temp) has anyone ever had to fly and heat a bottle just wondering whether it’s something I could do on the plane if they would give boiling water to put the bottle in? As it’s a 5 hour flight so if she needed a bottle i...

What formula have you chosen to use? And why? Struggling on what to use, I’ve been told they’re all the same done just have additional benefits..

If you have a kid w dimples how long did it take for them to show

I know milk is the main source for our LO's still but those who have started weaning, how many feeds/amount of milk are yours having still? I keep seeing stuff about dropping feeds but our boy is still having 5 bottles of day.

My 4 month old is down with his first cold that’s ramped up a bit since Tuesday. He’s taking in less milk from it which I’d expect. Wondering though how long would it last at this age, how long has it lasted for others? Thank you

Has anyone switched to milk 2 for those who formula feed? I'm a bit confused by it as ours only has the servings for a 6oz bottle on it? But my son has been having 7/8oz bottles recently... do you still use number 1 as their main milk and the 2 for after solids? Or just use the 2 as their main milk whether they h...

Moms please help. My boy just turned 8 months old and we are desperately trying to put him on to formula but it’s proven to be difficult. He probably like the comfort of BF. My hubby tried couple of time during the day and I tried as well before putting to sleep but he only takes a small amount. We trying to give it...

I’ve been noticing an oily residue on bottles after washing in hot soapy water and scrubbing with a bottle brush and then using a sterilizer. I rinse them very well so I don’t think it’s soap residue. Usually when I wash and sterilize a second time it comes off. Anyone else experience this?

i anyone else having their 2mo choking on a level 3 avent nipple? i had to go down to 1 because he wants to chug the bottle and is constantly choking

Has anyone else’s bf baby began refusing a bottle? I only give a bottle occasionally but I’m anxious as I’m at a wedding on Saturday evening so my mom will be giving bottles while I’m away. He seems to chew the teat and only takes a little of the milk before refusing and becoming unsettled, he’s 2 months old for ref...

Hi mums, how do you sterilize bottles while travelling? We will be staying in a hotel for a few days so wondering what is the best way to do so?

My nearly 11 week old has recently started absolutely refusing a bottle of my milk, we have tried absolutely everything, warmed, left cold, switching bottles….. he used to drink from a bottle fine, any tips? We have tried mam and tommee tippee bottles and teats 0 & 1

I was wondering if anyone had some advice of making bottles abroad. I am taking the Nuby rapid cool with us but we will be out and about a fair bit in the day so won’t be able to wash and re sterilise. We are using pre made for the plane journey but can’t justify the cost for 10 days worth!

Want to start off by saying o have nothing at all against formula fed. Fed is best. My LG is nearly 5 months now and up until today has been EBF. She’s had maybe 4 bottles of pumped breast milk since she’s been born mainly due to me having a blocked duct. She’s been getting very upset and screaming recently whic...

I feel like I’m back to when it was baby weaning 🤣and struggling with how to go about cows milk. Currently LO is on 7oz of formula he doesn’t drink all of it but maybe because he loves food so much 🤣 I’m thinking at first to give him his formula in the morning and cows milk as lunch time bottle and then formula…

For some reason the tomee tipee slow flow bottles (teats) are so fast now but I have a severe reflux baby. Need recommendations pls

How many formula feeds are your 7 month old having and how many meals?

Hello, just looking for advice. My little bundle is 4 weeks today born via c section at 38weeks, breastfeeding is going okay, he had a tongue tie, which was corrected. Due to tongue tie he wasn't feeding effectively and was loosing weight/ maintaining weight, so we were told to do formula or breast milk top up. Rece...

Does anyone find there LO will seem full or show no interest in a breastfeed but then will drink a bottle of formula no problem?
