Community Posts, Tips & Support on Baby Feeding

Hello, I am looking to see your routines with your babies. I have a 4 month old and I would like to be a bit more "strict" with times instead of him ruling everything! Would you mind sharing your routines (feeding, naps, play time...)? Thanks!

Those with 2 under 2.. how are you coping? My 17 month old is pretty demanding at all times so my 10 week old has zero routine compared to when my daughter was this age. I was following wake windows with my daughter and writing down when I fed her which really helped but I just don’t have the capacity to track anyth...

My baby just turned a year old on 10/29. My supply is dipping and I'm not producing enough for his bottles he currently gets at daycare. When do I stop giving him bottles throughout the day and only give solids?

How many mls of milk is your LO having and how many meals?

Just stay little a little while sweet boy! I know the newborn stage goes so fast but man photos make it more obvious. 1,2 & 3 weeks so much change. He is also up a pound from birth weight and the sweet baby rolls are coming in nicely 🥰

My LO is 12w, he has been using the Philips Avent bottles currently using the nipple 1, when should we change to 2?

Please give me honest reviews for this product, is it worth the price? Can I also use it at home? How long does it take to warm a bottle of milk (About 60ML)? Or any other bottle warmers that you’d recommend?

How many bottles are you 1 year olds having now?

Appreciate the back of a tin is a guideline but Kendamil suggests dropping to 4 bottles a day at 6 months but upping the oz (210ml) & at 7 months 210ml x 3 x a day. My baby is almost 7 months & currently has 5 bottles at 180ml but now we’re weaning doesn’t drink the full bottles (2/5 feeds) I’m wondering if it w...

Do you steralise them after every use? If not what do you do just wash them?

My son is nearly 6 months and he’s getting frustrated whilst giving bottles, he keeps trying to sit up during them and grunting, I noticed some of the teats aren’t flowing properly and wondered if that is it? When did you guys move on? In the box it says by now should be a size 4 but that sounds like a big jump

How do you girls get your little ones eat the whole 4-5 oz in one sitting please? We’re 6 weeks tomorrow and right now it’s very much on demand at every two hours at 2-3oz. She has about 20 oz a day so I’m not worried about her gaining appropriate weight but we’d like to do long stretches (like the formula feeders ...

Hi moms! It seems we started the process a bit too late as I have been exclusively breastfeeding until now, but my LO absolutely refuses to take the bottle. She plays with the teat and then spits it out. I’ve tried slow/fast/suction teats with no success. She will be starting daycare soon and I absolutely need to fi...

So we were using mam bottles but they were awful, the teat was literally pissing out milk like a water pistol so I changed to Philips Avent, the teat shape is obviously different & now his latch isn’t the best… do you think this will improve over time or will I have to change back? No tongue tie or anything like tha...

My lg is 9 weeks and we have just been told she has cmpa, we can’t get the milk until Friday,does anyone have any suggestions on how to help settle her? 9 hrs straight screaming last night and I can’t do that for another 3 nights x

After some advice on peoples schedules Ours is currently 7:30am-8oz formula 8:45am-breakfast Nap 1: 9:30am-10/10:15am (rarely) 10:30am-snack 11:45am-Lunch Nap 2: 1:30pm-3pm 3:15pm-5oz formula 5:15pm-dinner 7:00pm-8oz bottle 7:20pm-bed Since starting childcare the morning nap has pretty much gone out th...

Hi mums My baby just started solid and we’ve been giving him puree but we want to do BLW. Should we do this after puree once he got his intro to food or can we do this now already? Thank you

Has anyone’s baby still choked on gripe water when it’s been put in the bottle? I’m wanting to try it but worried about choking. (I’m aware it shouldn’t go in the bottle but putting it in a syringe or the teat is not an option as baby will not take any type of medicine this way anymore).

What worked for you? He’ll be 3.5

Why do we have to take away the bottle? Why is it bad? And do we switch to a sippy cup and why?
