Following as I will be doing the same at some point. From what I read you want to reduce one session in length over a few days then eliminate it. Shouldn’t eliminate more than one pump every 5-7 days to avoid issues. But I haven’t attempted. I did successfully drop from 6 to 5 sessions a day by reducing length then eliminating

We slowly switched by doing one ounce formula three breastmilk and then upping the concentration over time

We switched one ounce at a time too

Please check this message for me.

Without providing any context I know it's hard, but my husband and I are in a bad place. I want to repair things. Please just check this and see if it's fair/makes sense/is clear about my intention?

Sleeping through night?

Just out of curiosity when did your LOs start sleeping through the night?
I know sleep regressions exist and each baby is different but wondering if there is some kind of average.
Our LO is 6 weeks and goes between 3-5h at night, aware there is still a way to go!

Daytime naps

My little one is five months old and she refuses to sleep during the day. If we manage to get her down she’s either in the pram or after a feed. At night she feeds and then sleeps but wakes after an hour and a half to feed again or screams. Her wake windows can be over four hours long. I know that’s too long and I’m exhausted and emotional. Any advice would be appreciated.

Naps in bedroom cot

When did you start to put them in their cot in their own bedroom for daytime naps?

Biting toddler

Please help! My 1.5 year old hasn’t stopped biting at daycare. If she bites 3 more times they are kicking her out. Please any suggestions help. I’m at a loss and I don’t want her to lose her routine. Her 3.5 year old sister goes to the same daycare and is thriving.
