Combo feeding - what formula?

My LO is almost 8 months old and exclusively breastfed. Supply is low and I think I need to stray supplementing before my freezer stash is used up.

My girl has never had formula before, and will mostly still breastfeed. What brand should I get? What type of formula is best for mostly breastfed babies.

Honestly most of them are very similar. I would take a look at what is available near you and go with that, because there are still lot of shortages. For me, the easiest to find consistently was Enfamil A+ so we used that. I topped up my (now EBF) baby with it for several weeks at the beginning while waiting for my milk supply to come in, and she did great on it.

Assuming that she isn't sensitive to lactose, she should do fine on any of the formulas.

We used Hipp and love it!! Ingredients are a little more “clean” than the North American ones in my opinion

Did you know this was a thing?

Didn’t know this existed! I’m actually not breastfeeding 2nd time round (though wish I did) after a bad experience with my 1st baby. But this is something I 100% needed 1st time round.

Screeching baby

I have twin boys, 5months.

One is very quiet

The other... is like a pterodactyl who screeches when bored, tired, hungry, as soon as he wake up to be held etc...
This habit has only just started!

Has anyone else experienced this and how long did it last?
So far it has been about 5 days 😭😭😭😭

How do you dry your 🐱?

Joie Signature Parcel LX lightweight stroller

Has anyone got this stroller? Up until now we have used our mamas and papas ocarro and we love it. However we are going on holiday in June and looking at a lightweight stroller to take with us. I'm not bothered if it fits in overheard locker, I would rather have decent wheels on the stroller and this one does have slightly bigger wheels than most travel strollers we have seen. Has anyone used this stroller abroad or got any other recommendations? TIA x

Fighting naps

Does anybody else feel like they spend all day trying to get baby to nap? I get tempted to give up as he must not be that tired but he is too cranky to play or do anything else!
