Switching from kendamil to aptamil comfort

After weeks of my daughter being in pain after feeding, crying and being so hard to settle, wriggling all night and straining I've finally decided to change to a comfort milk. Would've done it weeks ago but the HV wasn't very helpful and just said her symptoms are normal and was only concerned with her weight.
I was trying to get kendamil comfort, but after seeing it is out of stock often, and only online I decided to go for aptamil comfort

We switched her today, and I'm just wondering if anyone else has done this (doesn't have to be the same brands) but how long did it take your little one to be more comfortable?

We have done the same, we went from kendamil to aptamil comfort and il be honest it’s been a week for us and we haven’t noticed any changes yet 🥹 feeling a bit deflated by it.

I was told we should notice a change within 48hours but 2 weeks for a full transition if no changes by the 2 weeks then it could be something else causing the discomfort.

Hope you see some changes soon 🤞 x

We changed from cow and gate to Aptamil comfort and infacol ( before every bottle) we have seen a difference- a lot less crying. However he does a lot less poo’s. He normally poos every 3 days and the HV said it’s probably because of the aptamil comfort ( not sure if she was just trying to force BF - which is all she does 😩)

I had this same issue he was in a lot of pain there was nothing we could do to comfort him we took him in the car at 4 in the morning driving round to soothe him but I’ve come to learn a lot of bottle fed baby’s get colic I tried changing to SMA comfort but but it made his poos a lot more frequent and really runny then switched back to kendamil because it’s not the milk I would advise switching back to the original milk make sure u burp her every 30 ml in between feeds can use gripe water sit her up for at least 30 mins after feeding and try and do tummy time with her for at least 20 mins a day to g t her stomach muscles strong enough to burp easier and now my son sleeps through the night he’s 8 weeks old now on track with his weight crying alottt less x

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 🙂

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.

Car seat crying

My 6 month old PANICS the second I put him in a car seat and screams, cries, chokes and recently even projectile vomited on a 14 minute drive. It’s gotten to the point I don’t even bring him out unless it’s to a doctors appointment. I’m a stay at home mom with no family in my state and it has been very isolating. We’ve tried 3 different car seats with no improvement. Has anyone had a baby who hated the car seat? Any advice? This started at 3 months. I will add it does seem worse when he’s tired. He does cry on every trip though. He only contact naps and co sleeps so he reaches for me and will not sleep in the car seat.

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.
