Formula

Thoughts on formulas? I’m currently using similac but it makes my baby fart constantly 😂 as funny as it is, it’s a bit concerning. What are your favorite formulas you currently use? Any formulas out there that are gentle in the tummy? I heard kendamil is a good choice but I can’t seem to find it in amazon.
P.s my baby is 2 weeks old ❣️

i personally HATE similac lol it has a weird smell and makes baby’s poop smell weird (which i only noticed once i switched) i always used generic target brand (up and up) because i got % off since i had a registry with them and they do have gentle formula options. if u want something more boujee im sure someone else on here will recommend something else 🤍 good luck!

Bobbie is good and made by moms

I’ve heard good things about sprout

Kendamil is a good brand of formula.

Im using kendamil organic. They also have goat milk for sensitive stomach

how you notice a difference with your baby?

I’m considering kendamil cause you can purchase with food snaps 🙈 have u notice a different with ur little one?

is it pricy through the website?

Several didn’t work for me.. including bobbie 🥴.. that one gave my baby acidic diaper rash! I loved HIPP. I ordered it locally from a distributor because it was easier but I also ordered online before that

no spit ups no gassiness no belly pain just a full stomach

hi Kendamil is on target and walmart . They take snaps, you can buy regular, organic and goat. My baby is not gassy at all . I think less after we switch, i was using enfamil before but i heard they have corn syrup so i switch.

I’m trying kendamil for now so far if don’t see MAJOR improvements I’m switching to Bobbie! The prices aren’t that bad either

Can someone pls help i keep making this post and nobody is responding

My boyfriend booked a trip for us to go to mexico for a week as my push present. I have severe anxiety leaving my 7 month old with my mom. I know she will be in good hands but she’s exclusively breast fed for the most part but accepts bottles just fine. i have all my pumping parts packed and will pump when baby normally eats but i don’t want baby to forget me or have latch issues when i return!! any mommas ever experience this?

When does it get better?

I was crying on the phone with the perinatal mental health team today and the lovely lady, bless her, kept assuring me that it gets better. I kept telling her I hope so because people have been saying that since having my LO and it just feels like it keeps getting worse. She assured me it gets better....

Rant/WWYD

My sister (youngest, 24) has two kids, 4 & 1, and i (oldest, 30) just have my one who’s 6mo old right now, so i ask her for advice or call her to vent about things sometimes. Well im tired of her turning around and telling my other family members that I’m “losing my sh*t.” Literally have not lost my sh*t nor have i ever freaked out to her about my baby, i just call her to talk and tell her what stage my baby is in or talk through how im feeling, but she chooses to tell people that im like a complete nutcase or something which worries me that my family is going to start being judgmental about me as a mother or looking at me funny like I’m some fragile ticking time bomb.

What would you do in this situation? I’m already pretty much decided that I’ll stop telling her anything about my struggles, but I’m almost at the point where i feel like it should be confronted because she, of all people, should understand what I’m going through.

Rapid cool/ hot shot method

Sorry if this sound stupid but how are we doing the hot shot method?
Are we boiling the kettle and letting it cool a little before adding to hot flask? Then with the cool water do you boil the kettle and leave it to cool right down before putting into another flask?
My baby brain is fried trying to work out the easiest way!

Night time routine

Heya, my 3 week old daughter is currently exclusively breastfed and I’m not pumping. Can anyone recommend the best way to share the load with my partner? At the moment I’m doing all the feeds/burbs/settling and my partner is sleeping through which obviously isn’t sustainable, I’m trying to work out the best way to get him involved. Any advice very much appreciated!

i just want someone to talk to😔😔😔😔

when things get hard i have nothing not any support from my partner im convinced he doesn’t even love me anymore but thats another story
I have a 3 yo and a 2yo that are in bed sleeping only just now. I have a 1 yo that’s been sleeping from 8 o’clock to 10 o’clock. I just gave her her milk and she would’ve gone back to sleep if it wasn’t that
I lost her dummy earlier in the day when I went out
so now she won’t go back to sleep and she won’t accept any of the other dummy’s i have!😔😔and it’s 10 o’clock and I’m gonna be up until 3 o’clock with her and when she does want to go to sleep i won’t have any dummy to give her she will accept and she won’t sleep without it i just wanna cry 😔i have nobody to talk to and i feel so alone i get no support from anybody i’m so tired and i don’t feel well to top it off😔
