Community Posts, Tips & Support on Baby Feeding

I am really struggling with my baby as he will not feed during the day and only will at night! It's near impossible to feed him of I am out and about. I am breastfeeding him during the day and night but we have a formula bottle for breakfast and just before sleeping. I don't know what to do and I am thinking just m...

P.S I don’t have support or a village but I really want my child to have a sibling.

Hey all! At the beginning I was an oversupplied and now it has steadily dropped, which I am sure is normal. But I am so close to making to my goal of exclusive breast milk/ breast feeding for my son’s first year. And am scared to start supplementing with formula on top of solids. I feel like my son isn’t really eati...

I use the Milton cold water steriliser and obviously sterilise the flask after each use however I just wash the lid in hot soapy water and then wipe down with Milton spray as obviously I don’t want to damage the sensor on the lid. I notice when reading the booklet it says you can sterilise the lid using a UV steri...

I’m really struggling to find Kendamil for my little one, has anyone swapped formulas? If so, what and how was the change?

Hi Mommies! My baby is 5 months old and only been drinking about 3-4 oz per feed (formula). She’s been using size 2 teat so we tried a bigger teat (size 3) but she is refusing it. Do you have any advice? How did your LO take a teat size up?

How much milk (oz) should baby be drinking after transitioning from formula?

Brand new bottles never used! I cannot remember how many there is but approx 5/6+ Let me know if you want them….

Girls who pump how do you work your feeds? I know you’re not meant to feed more than 4oz a feed, my boy is 3 months old on 3.5oz a feed at the moment which he has every 2-3 hours so feeds normally 6 times a day. He is ready to drop his 10.30/11 bottle, I struggle to get him to take it all & last night I just let h...

I’m a soon to be mama 36 weeks 🥰 I would like to know the best formula for newborn. I would love to breastfeed but if I can’t I need an alternative. I have been looking at “Kendamil” organic precisely as I want something which is most natural. Please let me know what you are all using.

I’m just curious when others stopped / are planning to stop sterilising bottles?

Does anyone know what is best to clean my Tommee tippee. I’ve been using lemon juice.. but doesn’t seem to last.

I’m exclusively pumping and Baby boy has been eating between 950-1200 ml (32-41 oz) of milk everyday… I read the daily average is between 24-33 oz for a 3 month old. Is anyone else’s baby eating/drinking this much?? My boy is about 16 pounds now and in the 99th percentile for height. Aka he’s HUGE. Slender but he...

GP recommended buying carobel but i cant get hold of any. I've asked 3 pharmacies.

What have people done with their babies bottles for going abroad on a plane? Going to Edinburgh for a couple of days and not sure what to do with formula etc and also how did you sterilise bottles

For the babies 5 months old… what size bottle teats is everyone on??

Has anyone had struggles with their babies and these bottles? My daughter just seems to spit it out the sides and the teets keep like clapsing in as she drinks them…

Hi Ladies, Is anyone using/planning on using Kendamil first infant formula and can advise how easy it is to get hold of in the Swansea area? I am keen to use this for my newborn when she arrives, but concerned about the stock issues. I don’t really want to rely on ordering online and would feel more comfortable kn...

Little one 1 year old. Are you still giving your 1 year old a morning and night bottle?

My baby is breastfeed and is nearly 6 months old. He very occasionally has expressed milk or formula from a bottle and I’m still using the same teats we have had from birth (so technically size 0) which he still takes fine. Is there any issue with this or should I have been sizing up to bigger sizes?
