How many oz?

I’m trying to switch my EBF baby over to bottles of formula/pumped milk.
How many oz is everyone’s 5M old having?
I can hardly get her to have 4oz sometimes lucky if it’s 3oz😢🫠
Just feel like it should more?
She used to BF every 1/1-.5hrs day and night so feel like she’s a snacker also?

Start with 3oz bottles then and increase it once they start to finish it. Breastfeeding is just different in terms of how often they need to eat so there will be an adjustment as you switch over. My breastfed baby would initially only take 2oz expressed milk from a bottle if I was lucky, now it's more like 4oz, very occasionally 5oz. He will take nearly 4oz of formula now used to bottle. But on breastmilk he is feeding 2-3 hourly, sometimes more often

My boy varies sometimes he drinks 3oz sometimes 4, 5 or 6 will depend on how hungry he is 😂 sorry that's not too helpful!

Ms Rachel ??

How many of you are putting ms Rachel on??? I’ve just introduced it to my 8 month old and it’s like sorcery. I feel so guilty putting it on because LO don’t take his eyes off the screen, but it’s the only way I’m getting 20/30 minutes during Velcro baby stage. I’ll put it on twice a day for up to 30 mins at a time, the rest of the time we’re out the house, playing with toys or he’s with me doing jobs around the house. Should I even feel guilty?😩

Thoughts on this pram?

I’m 18 weeks pregnant and thinking of prams to get my baby. I saw this on Amazon and it seems affordable, plus the reviews are very positive about the quality of the product. Are there any mamas in the group that got this specific model? If so, how did you find it?

Baby cutlery

Out of curiosity.
If we have to sterilise baby bottles, dummy’s ect.
Do we also sterilise baby cutlery?

Hipp Organic Ready Made Bottles

Has anyone found their baby is sick more using a the ready made bottles vs powder or noticed a change in the colour of their sick when using ready made bottles? I got some to use when we’re away but I’m not sure if they agree with him or it’s something else. For context he’s recently had his 16 week injections & is teething

Moving while asleep

My 12 week old has been sleeping through the night (8 hours) for the last week and a half and since the 3rd or 4th night he's been wriggling his way to the other end of his crib to the point where his head is cocked to the side
He seems fine but it looks uncomfortable and ive always been told he needs to have his feet touching the bottom of his bed and if I move him back he wakes up.
Has anyone else experienced this? Did you leave it? Are there any potential issues if I do leave it?
