Mam Bottles
Any advice on how the best/quickest way to sterilise mam bottles is please, we’ve just changed from Tommee Tippee which only needed to be sterilised in 2 parts 😊

Ive seen people put them in a microwave, not used them myself but im sure theres tutorials on youtube c
Fill the bottom up with a little bit of water just to over the base, put the teat inside of the bottle and microwave it for 30 seconds! MAM bottles are self steralising so are their dummys! Make sure when you microwave it put it on the edge of the microwave plate!
Mam bottles can be sterilised in the microwave. Still a bit fiddly compared to tommee tippee but still faster than using a steriliser. I just googled the instructions. However, if the instructions don't mention this.. make sure you take the teat out of the ring, put the teat on the base first and the ring over the top otherwise it makes the bottles pop x
Search it on YouTube - it’s v simple in the microwave
Hey! So you’ll need to assemble first with the bottom beige piece, white piece, teat and surround inside, then pop the outer bottle over the top with cap over the top all to be left loose (not screwed up) , 20ml of boiling water in the base (measure this from the lid). 3 minutes for one bottle, add an minute for each additional bottle, maximum of 6 bottles in microwave at a time ( 8 minutes) then wait 15 minutes before making a bottle up. Been doing this for 2 weeks now though and considering getting a steriliser so I don’t need to assemble all the parts and measure the water in, see how you get on! Xx

help :(
hi 🤍 ftm to my almost 2 month old. i choose to breastfeed and bottle feed but i don’t have a consistent schedule. i’ve been doing either or, based upon the time
of day, how much milk i have stored, or how fussy my baby is. i also co-sleep at times but other times he will sleep in his bassinet. but now im realizing the only way he is soothed is by being on my chest or immediately getting breastfed or by the bottle (eating.) i cant really sit him down anywhere anymore for more than 5-10 minutes before he starts crying again. he also doesn’t really rely on pacifiers or like being in his swing that long anymore (he used to love it without crying). i love that he’s attached to me, but i also want to know how to have him be soothed in other ways for when i choose to stop breastfeeding, put him in his crib in his room, travel and need family to watch him, need to run an errand, do anything around the house, etc. any tips or ideas ?

Cows Milk
For those who have switched from formula to cows milk when your LO turns 1, what have you done about night feeds (if they still wake for a feed through the night)? Cold milk from the fridge? Warm it up in the microwave? Take a flask upstairs? We’ve always used a prep machine in his bedroom so it’s been quite quick to make bottles without him getting too upset when waiting

Prams / travel systems
Hi mamas 💕
I was hoping to do an appointment in person to see how prams worked.
However, I’ve had a difficult pregnancy where I went on for a follow up scan at 22 weeks which resulted in a 6 week stay in hospital. I’m now back at home but fully on strict bedrest (just going to hospital appts only). Gutted my pregnancy isn’t what I expected but happy I’ve reached 28 weeks now 🥰
Any recommendations of prams/travel systems? We are having this one thing gifted, so ideally I’d like to try buy in Black Friday Sales for a good deal.
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated! 🙏🏼

Regression
It’s gotten to the point where I don’t even know if I’ve slept through the night because of how often my LO gets up and how light of a sleeper I am

4 year old spits when she’s been told off
My daughter spits when she’s annoyed or we’ve told her off. Why is this? Is this normal and how do I stop this? Of course we keep telling her not to spit and that it’s wrong!
