Milk

I’m 38 weeks and wanted to go with Kendamil but I thought it was so expensive for the same ingredients as most milk so I have gone with aptamil. My health visitor advised not to get any tub of milk that says anything other then the number 1 on the box until they are 12 month as all the other boxes that have hungry baby etc on it is just more advertising for them x

It is expensive but its working for us but I am now finding it hard to get cuz it's so popular. So not sure if to change now or not. He is 2 weeks old and so settled on this one. Hasn't been sick at all!!!....

I pick up a box every time I see one basically I know it’s expensive but I’ve got a nice little stock going now, the shop that’s always got stock by me is Sainsbury’s then probably savers , hopefully you can get your hands on some xx

Yeah that’s was my other issue too as it’s very hard to get. I would change and see how your baby gets on with it. Buy 1 tub and see how they go and if you find they are okay buy a few more in

I wouldn't use hungry baby milks, they are full of filler rather than nutritional goodness and I don't think that's good for their tummies.

Are you pace feeding bottles and following hunger and fullness cues?

Pace feeding bottles??? Yeah hence y he has had 170ml in 4 hours lol

Pace feeding means keeping them upright and the bottle level so they're not tipped back with the bottle able to pour into their mouth. You keep it level and only fill the teat with milk when they're actively sucking and you let them take breaks. Theres lots of videos and stuff online if you want to have look.

Have you tried on the Kendamil website, with my first I had it set up to come each month automatically x

last time I checked they had paused new subscriptions because of the supply issues

Sometimes the smaller Tesco Express stores have stock, if you've got a clubcard download the Tesco App and you can check stock levels in your local Tesco's and see which has it.

Larger Tesco stores and Sainsbury's now have the new Kendamil Bonya Formula, made by the makers of Kendamil but cheaper at £8.45 for a 800g box and ingredients wise very similar to Kendamil Classic.

Jumping on this thread with a six month old who is exclusively on Kendamil. It has been difficult. However stock should now be coming back up to normal levels as they’ve increased production xx

Oh thank goodness, music to my ears
