Reflux Mumma’s, aptamil to kendamil??

FTM here and just wanted to ask has anyone swapped from an anti reflux milk to kendamil before? My baby has reflux and we have been backwards and forward from the doctors since she was born, we are now trying the aptamil anti reflux formula and the sickness has calmed down a lot but she is straining lots to poo now, she seems to be struggling and she is also passing so much wind now. I was thinking of trying the kendamil formula because I’ve heard nothing but good stuff about it but just wondered if anyone had done this transition and how you have found it with your baby’s?
She isn’t having as much milk now because I’ve started weaning her so this could be why the sickness has calmed down.
Please let me know your recommendations.

Thanks in advance ☺️

Mine wasn't on anti reflux milk, but she was vomiting and filling her nappy immediately after every feed. The minute I changed her milk to kendamil she improved so much and I had no more issues at all!

I have a baby with reflux and I found the anti reflux milk almost too thick it was gloopy. I ended up just using a thickener. The cow and gate thickener and it really helped a lot.. she was slightly constipated so I made I give water during the day the help. I also never used the full dosage for the thickener and slowly reduced it.

Health Visitor Home Visit

Hii, could anyone explain what the health visitor does on their home visit?

Also if anyone had a home birth, what the midwife home risk assessment involves?

I’ve got 3 home visits coming up in the next two weeks (health visitor, midwives and doula) and it’s making me nervous for some reason. I think having 3 just feels like a lot and a bit invasive if that makes sense!

Poop question

Hey mommas I’m a ftm and my babygirl hasn’t pooped in two days she’s formula feed and is 12 weeks old. I can tell she’s uncomfortable and I feel so bad. I’ve been doing belly rubs and bicycle kicks and all the things like that. Also gave her some gas drops and gripe water to relieve the gas but still no poop. Does anyone have any tips or tricks for me. Pic so we don’t get lost💕

Who else is out there holding a baby thru the night so his noises dont wake up the house?!

I cant believe im still doing this at 15 months old!!!

My 2nd child is not just the noisiest sleeper but they have always been weird with breastfeeding

I think currently he is having some kinda developmental leap and growth spurt, eating and drinking like crazy and in the middle of the night if he wakes up , it takes ages to put back to sleep and he rolls around making sooooo much noise!!!

And i either have a low supply now OR he loves a fast flow and so he just jumps off the boob when it slows and complains loudly or just talks cutely but loudly! and i have to keep swapping boobs OR i have to get up and hold him and feed so gravity helps and the flow is faster and holding him means he eventually sleeps or at-least is feeding properly so is bloody quiet now! So at 1 am or 3am or often 5am onwards im holding n feeding until he wakes up 🥲🥲🥲

Any tips?

Bottles and feeding

Hi my three months tomorrow old went to bed last night with only four bottles he’s having between 6oz to 7oz it differs but I’ve had to wake him up (anxiety). Because I didn’t think four bottles was enough and I’ve been up all night panicking if he wouldn’t wake up. Any advice for this? X

How’s everyone’s babies sleeping?

My little one is 19 weeks, she used to sleep through when we would put her to bed at around 10pm, she would sleep through until 6-7 am.
Now she gets so tired around 8 pm so we moved her bedtime here, but coming with this is 1-2 night feeds and she’ll be wide awake at 6 am, which I know is still amazing but I am currently as sick as a dog so hasn’t been the best for my flu 🤣.
I’m unsure whether this is the regression though as her naps are very scattered throughout the day with the max nap being 30 minutes through contact only.
Does this sound like the regression? When did your little one start sleeping through again if they ever did? Thanks in advance 🤗❤️
