Bottles

How many bottles is your baby having in 24hrs? We are two month into battling to getting milk into him. He loves food and I’m aware food before one is for fun but I’ve tried cutting back on the weaning and he just over drinking milk. 😂 I will be continuing to try and get it into him but just curious of what other babies are like?

We are now x4 210ml with 1 attempt at solids a day. Sometimes a rogue 120ml night feed if she is awake a lot and wont settle.
She is on 97th percentile.

Our little man is on 3 meals now so we've just dropped one day feed. He has 3 x 7oz per day (+1 if he wakes at night for one which he usually does). We found it too much for him having 3 meals and bottles every 4 hours x

We’re on the same boat. I contacted the health visitor and she reassured me this is a really good sign. He’s taking really well to weaning. She also stated that if he’s having less than 17oz of milk to give vitamins to ensure he receives all his nutrients.

5x 7oz bottles (7:30am, 12:30pm, 4pm(ish) 7:00pm, and then a Dream feed at 10/10:30pm) but my little man hasn’t quite got the hang of solids yet either. He has porridge in the morning after his first nap, and tastes of different foods for his dinner but only small tastes really x

5x5oz bottles, usually has 2 meals a day, some days eats loads and other days isn’t fussed about it and would rather play with it xx

My little boy was refusing his day bottles and I tried upping teat size on the bottle (we use mam) after a day or two he went back to drinking as usual plus we also dropped a feed and three meals a day

Either 3 or 4 bottles of 8-9oz and 3 meals a day.

When my daughter was this age she was not a big milk drinker so the health visitors advised 3 meals from 6 months but just to offer milk before meals.

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?

Toddler not listening

Ok my 2 yr old does not listen to me. I know everyone says that but what do you do when it starts lol. We were walking on the side walk and he just took off (he’s never done that before) I was running yelling after me and he was laughing. I got so scared because we live on a boulevard so it’s busy. But just lately he’s been saying no no no to me and runs away. Idk what to do especially in situations like this that are dangerous.
