Switching to comfort milk

Hi,
My baby is currently on kendamil and is struggling to digest it. Very uncomfortable straight after feeds, wriggling and crying and very difficult to settle
Bought aptamil comfort today after trying everything else recommended

Question is, can I just give her aptamil comfort for all feeds straight away? Or gradually with 1 bottle day 1, 2 on day 2 etc?

Asking here because online I'm seeing mixed answers

Thanks in advance!

I was in the same situation. Started with kendmamil but baby used to cry alot (colicky). Switched to aptamil comfort after using coleif drops in kendmamil milk. Took her straight off it and put her onto the milk. Saw a massive difference

Thinking I should just switch so she has the benefits sooner, but scared that she will not react well to the change. Not really sure what's best
She had an aptamil bottle 4hrs ago so is due another feed now so currently standing in the kitchen with both tubs of formula in front of me stressing 😂😂

We had Kendamil and swapped to aptamil comfort. We just did a straight swap and little one was absolutely fine

Switch straight away. Should never give more than one formula x

We just switched. Used comfort for both my kids and it was a lifesaver!

you’re welcome!! ☺️

How long until you noticed a difference with your little ones?

Couple weeks after using she settled down with the colic crying, it was a godsend for us!

pretty much straight away in terms of the unsettled mess straight after and a couple weeks for the sickness to improve 😊

Wdy think of this for a toddler to learn word construction?

I'm open to anything else to start teaching him to read and write. He's 3!

Do men really enjoy fellatio?

Been together more than 10 years, but it's been a while since he even seemed remotely interested in me getting on my knees, or vice versa so to speak. I think it was once last year. Must be something I am doing wrong 🤔. Generally everything else in that department is great and we have two young kids with no extra support, so it's quite surprising we can't keep our hands off each other but may need to try new things. It's basically 2 positions each time with some foreplay.

Naps

How is everyone doing for naps?

Little one is 9 months old and will have 2 half hour naps and one solid 1 hour - 2 hour nap a day

Then settles for night around 9pm. Wakes for a feed around 3:30 then sleeps until 6-7

Vanilla extract

Has anyone used alcohol free vanilla in their babies formal to help them drink?
I’m 100% sure my baby refuses her bottles as she doesn’t like the taste of it!

Just anxious to try it, don’t want her to get used to it and then refuse bottles again after two weeks of using (correct me if I’m wrong but I’ve read you use it for 2 weeks max)

TIA 🙂

Pumping advise

FTM to a 2 week old! I’m breastfeeding and then giving one formula bottle last in the evening before bed. I want to start expressing milk to give me some breathing room and also allow my partner to be more involved in feeding. I’m finding the idea of introducing pumping into my day quite overwhelming though. I don’t want to take milk away from my baby by pumping if he needs it during the day when being breastfeed.

Can anyone advise how I start pumping and when to do it? Thank you!

Sex post C section

Hi ladies I’m 4 weeks 5 days postpartum and I had a C section. I’m not bleeding properly anymore just some brownish discharge stuff that starts on and off. I’d like to do the deed with my partner; is it okay to do so or shall I wait the full 6 weeks. I feel up for it but also worried because the advice is 6-8 weeks.
