Baby Feeding

Stupid question… do we have to sterilise all of the weaning stuff? Plates, utensils etc?

Hey all, Just want to know how much formula your 4 week old is taking? Mine is taking between 40-110 ml.. is that okay?

My baby girl is breastfed, however I am thinking of expressing & giving her a mam bottle every now & again, what size teat would people suggest would be best? I’m thinking of size 1 or 2 as other sizes might be too fast flowing for her? Thanks

READING IS FUNDAMENTAL😭

My two boys are fighting CONSTANTLY! One is about to turn 3 in June and the other is 14 months. You best believe it’s my youngest starting it all🤣🤣🤣

My son is on a size 1 teat at 18 weeks old, he is playing with the teat, unlatching often and never finishing his bottles but he chokes on a size 2 (we tried size 2 for a few weeks). Feeds are fussy and allover the place. Any advice on how I can get him to transition as I feel he's ready but then still struggles wi...

I’m a bit worried because my 4 week and 2 day old (2.9kg) is having 90ml every 3 hours. Guideline says 150ml -5 feeds a day.

We’re combination feeding using ready to feed formula for convenience but now looking to switch to just formula soon so need to move to powder. Is the perfect prep/rapid cool worth getting? Or a waste of money? Willing to pay for something that will make my life easier. Never made formula bottles so not sure how m...

I’m currently planning for the postnatal period with a newborn and a toddler (my son will be 3.5yo by the time baby comes). I want us all to be as prepared as possible for that period as I really struggled mentally last time so I’d love to know… what really helped you during those first weeks with a newborn and todd...

Has anyone used the Lidl own formula? I see articles saying that most brands contain the same ingredients and this is half the price of other brands. Any reviews would be most appreciated! X

I formula feed and breastfeed. Only reason I formula feed is because I believe I don’t make enough for her. She would drink her formula without a problem, but this morning she’s refusing and just wants the boob. I can’t have her starving! Any suggestions?

Has anyone got any of the old style tubs for sale? Happy to pay full price but lo is constipated on the new tins. Thanks!

My little girl is 20 months old, she still has milk for bedtime etc. when did you all move to a beaker and take the bottle away? If so, which did you move to?

My LO (20 weeks on Tuesday) has only been taking about 2/3oz of his bottles. His night time ones he drinks the full bottle but day time is a struggle. When he’s drinking it’s like he’s chewing the teat, rubbing on gums. I’ve tried changing the teat size to a 3 but he couldn’t handle the flow & most of the milk ended...

Hi, My lo is on aptimal pepti 1 and I find her reflux is worse due to the consistency of the milk? Whats everyone thoughts on carobel? Does it cause other problems? I’m in two minds to try it? My little one is also on omeprazole. What size teats do people use when adding carobel?

Does anyone has any recommendations for bottle warmers? At the moment we’re just using a flask during the night but I want to make sure the bottle is at the right temp. We have mam bottles. Also may be a silly questions but we’ll be using formula, so do you put cold water and then the formula in to the bottle and th...
