Can you give cow and gate baby porridge to a Kendamil fed baby?

Might sound like a silly question but I’m not sure lol

Yes I did although I am wondering if it’s making her eczema worse 🤔 reason is anytime she has veggie purée on it’s own or with her milk she’s absolutely fine but when I mix a bit of this porridge in her purée she gets a bit of rash outbreak. Also when she has porridge on its own. Initially I thought maybe the porridge is too sticky and she gets it all over her face so wiping it is making her skin red but this is happening even when mixed with veggies. Just a theory btw I am gonna test it a bit more as it could be the light fragrance wipes I might have used x

I use the cow and gate porridge and Kendamil formula, had no issues. I have also bought Kendamil porridge in Tesco, it’s also online

We’ve introduced Cow and Gate porridge with fruits for breakky this week to our Kendamil baby and it’s backed him right up. He’s not pooed in days despite having lots of vege lunches the same as last week. These little guts are very confusing!

You can just buy normal oats, guys.
Tesco do super fine ones if you don't want anything too textured, sure all supermarketsdo something similar. You can mix it with whole milk and save money that way too

that’s what we are planning to move to but I’m a bit nervous as I have coeliac disease so my little guy is at higher risk of having it too, so introducing gluten makes me so nervous! The baby one we are using atm is corn and rice based rather than oats.

give him a beer as a test 😆

My 5 week old is always up from 1am every hour grunting and squeaking and just won’t sleep. I end up having to bring him with me and I’m worried I’m creating a rod for my own back. I’m exhausted. First half of the night he’s okish. But from 1/2 it’s absolute hell. He farts a lot then as well but I just dunno what to do. Last night was the worst it’s been.

Not sure what’s wrong- 5months

Has anyone experienced any of the below problems with their baby?
He’s always a happy baby so this is completely not him. He’s a terrible sleeper but now it’s worse, if it could.

He’s was EBF but now on formula for the last 2 weeks. 2 days in a row now he’s vomitted a lot of milk out everywhere in the evening and just before bed.
For example I was walking around the room with him around 18:45 and it just came out of no where everywhere.

He’s very miserable and takes ages to get to sleep. Crying lots.
He’s been dribbling a lot, flushed one cheek but I can’t see any teeth coming.

All night he just won’t settle in his cot. Sometimes just starts crying hysterically and I can’t settle him at all.

A very tired mama.

Any advise on what it could be?

Side sleeping baby!

My little dude is 4.5 months old— he sleeps the best when he is on his side and when we pat his back. Whenever he shifts or moves to his back, he is much more likely to wake up (he’s already not sleeping much these days😅)

Do any of you have any suggestions for what works best for your little side sleepers to stay on their side? Or any items you use to help pat/move them overnight so you can also sleep?😅 TIA!
