My baby takes 5-6 bottles of 6 oz a day. How often is your baby drinking the 4oz bottles? I would think long as they drink total enough milk it should be okay?

He’s still having 7-8 bottles a day while eating 2-3 times a day with solids. He was originally eating breastmilk, but then we switched because I lost my supply after my first period.

Then you should be okay! They are eating more frequently than some babies but sounds like the total intake is still good for their age!

My girls dropped massively, gone down to 3 bottles a day sometimes 1 over night, roughly 6-7oz plus solids

My son is eating 4oz to 8oz and 5 to 7 bottles. Some solids throughout too. I try every 3 hours to get calories in

4-5 bottles and I really try to feed 2 solid meals but that is SUCH a struggle.

We're still doing 3-4oz at a time but 8-9 bottles a day, plus 1 or 2 "meals." She's gaining fine, so I'm not worried.

My girl usually eats 4 bottles of 8 oz a day. She also eats some rice cereal for breakfast and a few of her baby snacks (yogurt melts, cereal puffs, baby Cheetos, etc.) while I’m making her bottle or when I’m making dinner (she gets excited when she smells the food cooking and upset when she can’t have some yet), then I also share my dinner with her or will give her a little bit of her own.

Self settling

Any tips or advice of how to teach 6.5month old to self settle? I’m up multiple times in the night to cuddle her back to sleep and put the dummy in. I understand she will wake up and want a cuddle etc but any tips on self settling would be appreciated 🥰

Breastfeeding

Does it ever feel better? The actual feeding part of it is going really well and baby boy is growing so well. I’m struggling with how my boobs feel day to day - it’s really getting me down most days. The let downs make me feel awful and sounds silly but, I am also really missing not wearing a bra! 9 weeks postpartum and still getting fairly engorged, even with comfort pumping.

Any advice or just shared stories would help. I’m so torn between carrying on because I enjoy the feeding side of it or switching to formula.

Big nursing bras!

I’m looking for recommendations for good nursing bras for bigger breasted ladies!

I’m currently in a 38H which seems to be the biggest size done at M&S (UK based mama here) and it’s snug and not as supportive as I’d like. When I look online, they mainly seem to be sized S, M, L, XL etc rather than bra sizes.

Any recommendations please?

Help! First time mum -

I have a 4 month old and now all of a sudden when he’s been asleep for 1hr30/2hrs he will wake up screaming (high pitched) I’ve tried winding him sometimes that helps, I’ve tried bicycle legs & bringing his knees up but that doesn’t seem to help but he brings his knees up himself sometimes but nothing happens. I’ve noticed since the 4 month mark he has started to struggle passing wind downwards! Any tips?
