Oz and bottles

I posted the other day about how many bottles your little ones are on and if they were down to two or not. I feel like I’m constantly asking but my LB is on two bottles am/pm he will only have about 4/5oz in the morning and 7/8 in the evening. If I offer him any through the day he either doesn’t have it or has 4 oz then doesn’t eat much solids (BLW)

With the heat he’s off his food a little and will only eat yoghurt and cold fruit?!

Do you think I need to offer more milk or just carry one? (He’s 10 months) x

My girls the same sometimes misses a morning bottle and has an afternoon 4/5 oz and then a 6oz at bedtime

I read that by 1 year they are meant to be on 16-24oz of milk a day. My 11 month old is on 16oz absolute maximum. It’s child dependent. I wouldn’t worry if he’s having less, if he doesn’t want it, he doesn’t want it. Sounds like he eats well normally?
With the heat it’s normal for appetite to be affected, it happens to us too

Something my HV told me is that the daily oz guidance isn’t just for formula/ breast milk, it also includes other milk sources such as what you put in cereal, yogurts etc. My little girl isn’t great with her milk so we make up for it in her food. She only has 2 bottles per day (morning and night) and has about 6/7 oz, sometimes as little as 4 x

My baby is only on 8-10 oz bottle at night for bedtime and 3 meals and snacks if he is hungry in between. And is offered water throughout the day (wish he is drinking ALOT of atm probably the heat)
We have only cut to one bottle recently due to not wanting the bottle in the morning

8 week immunisations

My 8 week old has his first set of injections tomorrow and I’m abit nervous. Does anyone have any advice for after the jabs? I know they get a temp after so have got some calpol to give just before hand. Should I put him to bed in less clothing to make sure he doesn’t get too hot? Any tips from your experience with first set of immunisations? Am I worrying more than I need to? 😅

11 month old constantly standing in cot

Please tell me someone has some advice for this cause wow it’s trying. My almost 11 month old is fully on the move now and his new favourite thing is repeatedly pulling to stand in his cot. The problem is that he wears a sleep sack (mainly so his legs don’t get stuck between the bars tbh lol) so he’s not stable enough to lower himself down. So earlier he fell backwards and hit is head and now we feel like we can’t just leave him to it. Typically it’s his first full day at nursery tomorrow and my first day back at work IT’S LIKE HE KNOWS!!
Please tell me someone has some tips. Currently we are quietly placing him back on his back every time but he just keeps doing it! 🤣🤡

Took 9 week old to a family party where there was loud music and she was next to the speaker for most of the time (about 3 hours). She slept through most of it. Do you think she has hearing loss from this?

Freaking out right now :(

Struggling in the 4 month regression

How are people getting out of the 4 month regression? I’ve been looking it up and it says I need to be trying to put him down drowsy but awake but this does not work for my LO. Every time we do this he ends up being wide awake and after almost an hour of trying we have to contact nap/rock to sleep. I want to avoid rocking to sleep because now when he wakes up in the night he needs to be rocked back to sleep which he never used to need.

Nights are constantly broken because we are up 2-3 times to rock him back to sleep. Please give me your tips on how to survive this and how to get out of this!! Constantly feel like I’m failing and doing something wrong
