Im probably being stupid but my midwife has never told me about centiles and it’s my first baby and I don’t understand all I have in my antenatal book is where’s he’s on the growth chart. If someone could help me understand thankyou 🥹❤️
Hello ☺️ I have noticed my baby has started to go longer between feeds in the day, it was every 2 hours (very hungry baby!) but he seems to be going past the 3 hour mark now. Do you wait until you see signs of hunger from your baby to feed them or are you feeding them every 3/4 hours as routine? For example, he was ...
We had our review today (11 months exactly) and got told because little one eats 3 meals a day to stop the morning bottle and only give one just before bed. I thought the formula was vital until their one. Do I listen or keep doing one in the morning too?
Stopping bottles? Stopping dummy’s? Stopping nap time? Toilet training? Going to nursery (if not already)
My baby has cows milk morning & night, my parents seem to think I should still be giving her formula as it’s full of goodness & that’s why she’s not sleeping to late someone please advise me as I feel cows milk is enough.
Induction!! Going in for an induction this Thursday when is the best time to sterilise my bottles (they are mam) And dummies (also mam) heard lots of people say them and the bottles are sterile for 48hoyrs then some say 24? Is there any way of making them fresh (the bottles) for longer TIA x
HELP. I’m hoping to transition from pumping to feeding with formula due to mental health deteriorating. We use MAM bottles and I’ve checked everything on YouTube and online about how to warm up the bottles properly once you have made some up and stored them in the fridge. I don’t have a bottle warmer (looking a...
How many bottles is your baby on? My little girl is only on 3 bottles in 24h, not started weaning or anything yet. 9am, 1:30pm and 7pm Al 8/9oz bottles so she’s having between 24-27oz but I can’t help but feel like she should be on more 😂
No judgement, just curious to see the figures! What milk is your baby receiving?
Ladies, if baby wakes up crying for a feed at night, do you change his diaper and take him with you downstairs to make formula OR you change his diaper, leave him upstairs and go quickly make the formula and come back?
Just wanting to see if anyone else has experienced this. I've been chatting with my health visitor and raising concerns that my LO may have reflux, we've been to the GP and said he has slight reflux and colic but due to him gaining weight well they don't suggest starting him on anything. Yesterday my health visitor ...
I’ve just started my daughter on cows milk, she has roughly 17oz a day. I just wondered if I’m giving her enough milk. I do include dairy i.e cheese and yoghurt in her diet too.
Sorry if this sounds super dumb. Question for formula feeding mums. How do you know if your baby has an allergy to their formula. It seems like it’s quite a common thing but how do you tell the difference between allergy symptoms and typical newborn behaviour ie. Struggling with wind, grunting and bringing up milk? ...
Morning! I am trying to get organised and need to decide on formula - what brand formula do you recommend? I want to stick to the most organic and healthiest option (if that even is a thing) thank you!
Hi! My baby is over 4 months and is starting to fill out their pram. When did everyone transition from the bassinet to the pushchair?
We use MAM bottles and have reflux so my 9 week old has been using size 0 teats up until now. The last couple of days he has been falling asleep during feeds and not finishing the bottles so thought maybe time to change to size 1. Tried it tonight and he coughed and spluttered and half of it ended up splashing on ...
