Transition formula to cows milk

Hey Mummies !! Any tips on how to wean my little one of formula during night ? He won’t take any milk during the day but at night he wakes up twice and if he doesn’t have milk is going crazy crying like is the end of the world …😭 . I need to transition him to cows milk as 13 months already but not sure what to do with the bottles at night … with my first one I think I just gave him some water and was fine but the second one is more stubborn lol

I have this exact same problem 😭 I am trying cows milk before bed and in the night sticking with the formula for now, in the hope he will drop that bottle soon! I would also love some tips lol

We’re in the same boat right now, we tried mixing the cows mix and formula and slowly reducing the formula but still giving a little bit just before bed so he’s full overnight and then when he wakes up for a bottle we do the same but with less formula if that makes sense. It’s sooo hard though because he cries for formula too sometimes, 😭🫶🏽

My son had cows milk in his breakfast and other foods for quite a few months, so the transition to cows milk for bottles was fine. If it’s the first time they’ve had it there stomach just aren’t used to it

Baby seats for trolleys, high chairs etc.

Has anyone got one of these from a brand they recommend? Not sure if Coco seat is a UK brand or what it's like as a company?

Thanks in advance!

Nappy leaks at night—what brands or tips work?

My 12 week old uses Aldi Mamia size 3 nappies during the day with no problems, but at night both Mamia and Pampers Premium Protection size 3 have leaked after a few hours. Has anyone got tips for nighttime leaks or recommendations for other brands or strategies?

Sleeping through

Hi all so my nearly 3 week old is wanting to sleep through the night she has had no issues with her weight and is gaining really well. Can I let her sleep through or do I keep waking her? TIA x

Sleep regression or upping daytime intake?

My baby is 15 weeks on Saturday. He used to sleep 9ish-6am with only 1 wake for a feed. He’s now ready for bed at 7/7:30 and sleeping until 7am but waking for 3 feeds! He had dropped to 6 5oz bottle but has now added in an extra one at 11pm. I’ve tried him with some 6oz bottles in the day but he struggled with them. What’s going on? Do I need to ride it out or try and up his daytime intake?

Formula advice

I was just curious if anyone has switched formulas. My 12 week old baby has been on aptamil 1 since birth but due to crap mat pay and the prices of formula nowadays I was wondering if anyone can advise if they switched and (or) if they've used aptamil and changed; which brand did they switch to. Thanks mummas
