Baby won’t finish her bottle

Can someone please help me understand why my 6 weeks old doesn’t want to finish her 90ml bottle but rather wants to continue on the boobs. She will take the bottle but will start crying after taking half of the bottle until I give her boobs. It’s frustrating and it’s wasting milk since I’m not an oversupplier

she could be getting frustrated/bored with the flow speed on the bottle teat, maybe try a faster flow??

she could also be struggling with the shape of the teat if she isn’t latching properly xx

She might just not be used to the teat, try using teat size 0 x

Breast pumps

Hi, I'm a first time mum and would like to breastfeed. I'm 23weeks and trying to buy along the way, to spread the cost and not leave everything until the last min as I'm anxious about birth.

I want to get a portable breast pump as we have an active lifestyle. What does everyone recommend? Preferably something that won't break the bank 😊

Prams !!

Currently 22/40 with our first baby!! We plan on having 2 under 2, would it make sense to purchase a double stroller to avoid a secondary cost with the second bay?

Do you wipe your baby each time when changing nappies if there is only pee?

It's bc the wipes are cold and my baby cries when I use them at night time :(

How many words does your 15MO say?

This post is not to put anyone or their baby down especially if that baby is having difficulties I’m just curious how many words other children My daughter‘s age are saying because she surprises me. She’s been saying words since she was about 2 1/half months old it started with little words like go out dad mama and she’s already at the point where she’s repeating random words out of nowhere I didn’t think kids started doing that till they were a bit oldershe says far more than 25 words at this point I couldn’t even name them all and like I said every day she says something new she repeats words out of nowhere and I didn’t think a kid that young really started repeating repeating words, unless they’ve sat down and it’s been worked with saying that word but she’ll just say things out of nowhere. She’s already starting to try to put two words together and at her doctors appointment yesterday her doctor told me that that’s actually a skill for two-year-olds what do y’all think and how much is your 15 month old saying?
