I pump after feeds and use a hakka during feeds for let down do i need to wash and sterilise these after each use or can i just wash them finding it hard to do all of that between feeds. LO is 6 weeks.

I have two little girls with a 14 month gap. My toddler is a wild child and all over the place. My second came out the most chill baby so much so the nurses and doctors worried cause she didn’t want to cry. The transition has been rather easy as my toddler just wants to continuously give her kisses and my newborn sl...

Hi all, First time mum so no experience! Do you have to stick to the same brand of dummies as bottles or can you mix them? Also, when baby is given the dummy, do I then need to stick to that brand ? Thanks in advance ☺️

Hey mamas! Hope you’re well. As some of you may be aware of there is a massive shortage of kendamil products across the UK. As a result we’ve decided to change our baby’s formula. She is just coming up to 6 months. But I’m unsure of what formula to go for now? Has anyone else changed their baby’s formulas and what to?

Anyone else doing mostly breast feeding with formula top ups here and there? How is it going?

How many oz are your 5 week olds having in a 24hr period??

How long can these be used for without getting rid? If I feed a newborn and pop it in the fridge. Can I use it again in a few hours for their next feed?

Formula fed

My little girl is 7 weeks tomorrow and she’s sick quite a bit after a feed, and when she does bring up the milk it looks like it hurts. Im holding her up after feeds etc. She also fusses with the bottle and something just isn’t right. She’s currently on kendamil, does anyone recommend a reflux formula? Hoping it is ...

My LO still has 4 5oz bottles of formula a day - morning/evening and before each nap. I'm struggling to figure out how to drop them, as he's in a veryyyy fussy eating phase and is eating almost nothing most days.

I have 3 unopened 12.6oz cans of formula. My son is officially off of it. DM me if interested!

Is anyone’s 3 month old still feeding every hour in the day time? He’s EBF but I’m wondering whether to give a bottle of formula every now and then to ensure he is getting what he needs as I’m worried by feeding so frequently it’s because he’s always left hungry? He comes off the breast on his own accord and doesn’t...

My lg is 1 on the 4th November so will be starting her on cows milk. I will be getting the big milk which has got vit A D and iron in it as my lg keeps making herself sick with vitamin drops. She's not been taking her bottles very much the last few days. Will it be okay to start weaning her on cows milk mixed wit...

Going to France for a day trip soon! I’m feeling a bit nervous because it’s a very long day we don’t come home until midnight and we leave early hours of the morning. Any tips? God knows how we’re gonna do his bottles all this time as well! I’m thinking we’re gonna take the flask for the first couple and then we hav...

I know every baby is different however roughly how much is your baby drinking? What’s normal for a 7 week old? (On Kendamil) Thanks

Is your baby growing in the

My 3 day old just won’t settle tonight, she keeps wanting to feed and we’ve fed her 3oz at 9pm and then 2 oz at 10:22pm and 1oz at 11:43pm as she just wouldn’t settle. I don’t want to be over feeding her but she’s just constantly sucking for a feed and will guzzle down a bottle. Anyone have any advice please

I sterilise my bottles with either cold water sterilising solution or microwave and they would be wet but fine as sterilised but just bought milk powder boxes and wonder how I can sterilise them without getting them wet? If they need to be dried/air dry then they would no longer be sterilised yet it will be a nightm...

Anyone know where I can find these bottles in store, needed for my hospital bag😫 TIA XX

We’re in a predicament as we should be transitioning to cows milk but baby has a cows milk allergy and we have BOXES of special formula to get through. Why can we reduce her bottles while still on formula, and then continue to use it along side, or mixed with non dairy milk until it’s used up? She’s 13 months
