Best Bottle for Enfamil AR Formula

My three week old son, Silas has been on the Similac Total Care 360 - sensitive and suddenly, he started to develop severe gassiness and would spit up excessively. He would act like he was in pain and discomfort no matter what we did to help. Yesterday, I took him to our pediatrician’s office and they recommended a trial switch to Enfamil AR formula and to add a probiotic.

With the Similac Total Care 360 formula, we were using the Dr. Brown’s bottles with the preemie (slowest flow) nipples. Since the Enfamil AR is thick with the added rice, I changed his nipple to a level one but I still don’t think these Dr. Brown’s bottles are going to work with this formula. Does anyone have a recommendation on what bottle would be better in this situation?? Thank you!!!

I use the same formula and the Philips Avent bottles works very good with that formula my boys eat don’t complain they get it through the nipple

Would it bother you? Hubby never finishes.

So my husband doesn't finish. Not for birth control but he just doesn't finish, he says he can go a really long time before actually finishing. He can finish as we have a child together.

It's never bothered me enough to cause serious problems in our relationship. Sometimes I wonder if I'm good enough in bed? He says he just gets tired. I've only ever been with two guys, my ex and hubby and my ex never had an issue with it. Hubby says he likes it and we have a healthy sex life as in we have sex regularly.

Just wondered if it would bother you or am I overthinking it?

Anyone know when the newborn insert can be removed from this seat? The booklet is absolutely useless.

Seat previously used for my son but he was over one when it was purchased so newborn insert was never used.

No kissing

Those of you who didn't let anyone kiss your babies, when did you start to let them?

I've had a no kissing rule since my LG was born, which was fine at the start but there have been a few incidents lately where her grandparents have kissed her where we have had to say something. One of these incidents she ended up in hospital with bronchiolitis and the other grandparent suffers from cold sores so I'm uncomfortable with her ever kissing my LG if I'm honest.

I just want to protect her but my partner thinks there needs to be a cut off point where we say it's ok.

Can’t hold a conversation with my 2.5 year old

He only started really speaking a few months ago and while I know he knows a lot of things, follows instructions so well, I still can’t have a conversation with him.

At most I’ll get a couple words stung together and almost always they are just words I have said and he is repeating them back.

I try to ask him about his day or what we just did and he’ll just repeat it back. He even does it with strangers when they have said hi guys, he’ll repeat it back to them or say hi followed his own name and he’ll do this with us too.

I really thought once he started speaking that we can finally talk, but it’s just him repeating and not really responding
