Formula ratio

I have just found out my partner mixed our daughters formula wrong this morning. He made a 180ml bottle and only put in 4 scoops of formula instead of 6 (we swapped between 120mls and 180mls throughout the day as she takes different amounts so he must have got confused).
I have looking into this online (I know I probably shouldn't have) but now I'm really worried.
Has anyone done this before ?
I'm a first time mum so not sure if im overthinking it.

Breastfeeding popularity

Absolutely zero judgement here, but I’m curious how many people actually breastfeed? I exclusively breastfed my first for a year and currently 9.5 months in with my second. Out of the 11 babies in my friend group my 2 are the only ones breastfed past 3 months.

Poopin probs

My son is 4 months old and has always had a hard time pooping (he goes once a day is that). He currently has the stomach bug last week and is starting to feel better, but his poop has been hard some since being sick. He has also been so fussy. I give him gas drops often. What do y’all do when your baby can’t go?

Proud

I have no where else to go with this so thought it would be good to shout out here.
Baby girl is 4 weeks and 2 days old, was ebf however she could not latch deep enough so I went to pumping and bottle feeding.
However last 2 nights baby girl has got extremely restless after her bottle. Tonight my husband said put her on the boob she is it helps her, well I did with a nipple shield and she fed for 25 minutes. Came off content and fell to sleep straight after.
I thought my breastfeeding journey was over and it was bottles breast fed and pumping but think we may introduce a night time breast feeding to see how that is.
I am proud of bay girl and myself.

Baby changing bags

Can anyone recommend a good baby changing bag? I’ve had a Gigil one but already had it replaced once in four months & the replacement bag is having the same fault. I really like the look of the totes for you one but it’s out of stock & eta on it being back in stock is September 🫠

Milk supply.

My baby is 6 weeks old, my milk supply has dropped I am exclusively pumping as baby will not latch at all but the last 48 hours my milk has started to smell and taste funny. My baby has become extremely unsettled I’ve had to top her up with formula because no matter how much I’m pumping I’m not producing enough. Over the last 6 weeks I’ve been oversupplying and it’s just suddenly dropped. I don’t know if it is because I am feeling extremely exhausted and run down or if it’s just drying up and coming to an end. I was considering weaning off by 3 months but have been very undecided about that. Has anyone got any advice?
