Baby Formula HELP

Long story short.. my 6week old baby(3weeks corrected) has been in aptamil since birth.

He has developed symptom of CMPA - rash/spots on face, loose nappies, discomfort etc. GP has advised to try a different formula for a few weeks to see if anything improves before trialling a dairy free formula.

Any suggestions?

Dummy’s

I’m exclusively BF and my newborn is only 11 days old and she definitely is cluster feeding and using me as comfort so I thought let me get newborn dummy small mam ones but she will not take them at all? Is there any others you reccomend or reccomend changing as I don’t want to just use me as comfort so I’m feeding her I want her to sleep longer periods during the night if possible so could give dummy as I did my other child and took it off him at 8 months old it worked fine but she doesn’t seem to want a dummy

Night duties

Hi my 15 week old is exclusively formula fed. I am on maternity leave and my husband works ft mon-fri. I do all night feeds and changes including weekends and when my husband takes days off as annual leave. Is this normal? Who does the nights for you? My baby usually wakes 2-3 times. At weekends he will usually take her from like 7am so I can sleep an extra hour or two upstairs. Sometimes I feel annoyed that he never even offers to do a night even at the weekend but maybe it’s normal for mum to do it … I appreciate it would likely be different for breastfed babies. Thanks.

Breastmilk

If I still have a few drop of milk when I hand express could I build up my supply again? Is it worth it at 6mo pp

Mosquito bites 🦟

Am I the only one covered in mosquitoes bites? I lived in London for many years and never had that many bites before. Now it’s looks just as bad as when I used to live in a tropical country.

Are there any effective mosquito repellents I can buy in the Uk?
