OZ???

How many ounces are your babies eating at what age?? I’m curious because my 6 month old is still eating 3 ounces but he’s gaining weight and super healthy!

Its completely normal for breastfed babies. Formula babies usually eat more as they get older.

The overall amount of milk he drinks in 24 hours is more important than how much he takes at each feed. Some babies just prefer to have little and often.

If hes putting on weight and not showing signs if dehydration he is going good mama!

Would you make a birthday registry for your kids?

My 2 sons are having their 3rd and 4th birthday together. Everyone’s asking what to get them and last year I told 2 people the same thing. I don’t want to do that this year. But I don’t know if it’s rude to make a registry or if people would feel some type of way.

Can you overfeed a formula baby?

My 5 week old is eating 4oz every 2 hours on the dot! Is it possible that we are over feeding him? No he does not spit up often, he will fuss at the 2 hour mark (wake up from sleep as well) until he gets his bottle.
We offer the pacifier after feeding sometimes but I’m worried about offering the pacifier when he fusses incase I miss the hunger queues.

9 months coosleeping baby

My daughter is nine months old, and I’ve been struggling so much for the past two weeks. We’ve been sleeping together almost since she was born. It was much more comfortable for both of us because she used to fall asleep whilst feeding. But for the past two weeks, her sleep has been constantly interrupted by crying; she whines, makes strange movements, and suddenly starts climbing up the headboard. As this happens every half hour, I haven’t been able to sleep at all. I wonder why this might be happening.

Baby sleeps with his head turned mostly to one side ?

Little one is 4 months and I’ve noticed he has a favourite side to turn his head and it’s very slightly flatter than the other side due to him always facing that way, even when he’s awake he faces one way. He can turn his head both ways but even when carrying him he always looks left. I’ve even tried switching his position in the crib but he still prefers one side. and When he’s sleeping I gently move his head to the centre so he’s looking straight but he moves it back to one side after a while. He does suck his thumb on one hand so I guess it could be to do with that? I just don’t want him to have a wonky head or face bless him, has anyone had this ?
I might go to the GP

Breast milk storage

Has anybody used frozen breast milk for bottles after they’ve passed the 6 month storage time? I’ve seen conflicting opinions, but i really want to believe it still has some nutritional value…. I have about 100oz unused and I’d rather not use it for just baths 🥲
