Kendamil shortage

GUYS help!!
My little boy is using Kendamil. There's obviously a shortage so probably going to have a hard time finding tins.
What's the best formula to switch to? I've already tired aptamil in the past and that made him sick.
What's peoples opinion on cow&gate and SMA.

My little girl couldn’t stomach Kendamil, and made the switch to cow & gate when she was a few days old
We love it but the tubs are not very durable if that makes sense, and that’s the only thing that puts me off? The lids are quite faffy as if there’s a little powder around the edge it won’t close properly and you wouldn’t even notice unless looking really close, and with it being a cardboard tub, wiping sides and things, you have to be careful that the tub doesn’t get wet! But the milk itself is amazing😂❤️

Cow and gate has been fine for my little girl, she's 5 months on Saturday and she's had no problems at all. My nephew is nearly 2 and he was on it as a baby too and had no problems

Ive not had a problem finding it. Boots have it online at the moment

touch wood neither have I! Sometimes the ready made packs are abit hit and miss but the powder has been no problem so far !!

Its also back in stock on their own website i have jyst checked 🥰

ive seen a couple of places empty and they stopped me maling changes to my subscription but ive never had a problem getting it in the supermarket

@Sade where are you based?

I usually get it in our local Sainsbury’s recently couple times they haven’t had any but Superdrug’s seems to always have loads

Try super drug… you can also check there website and see if it’s in stock x

SMA has been great for us since birth.

Cow and gate and Aptimal are the exact same product, made by the same warehouse just different names ( just in case you chose cow n gate and they didn’t have any) x

For the breastfeeding moms

What drink should I choose instead of soda? I’ve been drinking a lot of soda and sometimes water, but I want something bubbly to drink while breastfeeding. I don’t like seltzer water or flavored versions. Please help me find a drink.

Anyone else's baby NOT sleeping through the night?

I would never have expected this, but I am seeing so many comments from mums saying that their baby sleeps through the night. It can't just be my baby who is waking up every 1-2 hours? Please say I am not alone...

Sleeping bags

My newborn hates a swaddle of the love to dream swaddle. So was thinking of a sleeping bag.

What tog do you have your baby in that is always a warm baby, rarely cold?
My girl runs hot all the time and normally has a thin blanket on but she is constantly moving so it gets kicked off

Don't know what to do

Hey im a first time mom to my baby girl. she is 20 days old and last night was up most the night. I've had 2 hours sleep total im so tired but she won't sleep at all. She will wake up and have some of a bottle and then when I put her down after burping her she will start crying half an hour later for more. She's on 6 ounces of hungry baby formula. Im just not sure why this is happening. Could it be sleep regression?

Regression struggles

My baby has woken up upwards of 8 times already tonight. Nothing works. I am mentally and physically exhausted. This is week 3 of this and every night is worst than the last. Feeding doesn’t work, rocking works until I try to lie him down, co sleeping doesn’t work. He has a dummy but cannot keep it in his mouth so I have to hold it in. I tried to take it away a few nights ago but he screamed for 3 hours until I gave in.

All day all I think about is how horrific night time will be. I don’t enjoy any of being a mum as I’m consumed by how exhausted I am and how this will only get worse.

Sleep through

Does your lo sleep through the night yet?
