I use MAM and sterilize them in the microwave and seriously I get so weirded out!! Like is it really ok to be microwaving our babies bottles!!?

My 3 month old is formula fed (kendamil first infant ) and has 4oz every 3/4 hours. He used to have 5oz but doctor said I was overfeeding.. what’s everyone else’s babies drinking at this stage?

What’s your feeding schedule for baby? (General idea of amount and how often) I’m worried I’m overfeeding my little one after comments our HV made

Hi! Has any mums who formula feed, given their little one hungry baby formula at 7 weeks old? I think my little one has silent reflux, and I think part of it is due to him guzzling his bottle so quickly. I read that the doctor will probably just give a thickener, so I wondered if the hungrier baby formula was thick...

So I feed my LO bottle during the day and the formula says 6 scoops which I do for her age, but not sure it’s fulling her up enough an I should go up to 7 scoops? Just wondering what’s best she’s almost 4 months old. Also wondering do u start her on the porridge when she’s 4 months as some people say it will help bu...

Hi, LO is 8 months and I’d like to start looking at dropping one feed. In 24hr period LO has 5bottles. 1 of the bottles being in the night. Did people find an easier time to drop a bottle?

How many bottles is your little one on now that weaning has started? My little boy has started refusing his bedtime bottle and still manages to sleep through. Wondering if I should reduce number of bottle but increase amount of ounces given?

I am currently breast feeding my little one we have started giving bottles of formula once a day usually 7oz. My little one has bottle of pumped breast before bed occasionally but I want to get him used to having occasional formula before bed but unsure how much to give him?

My son is 3 months old and has started to get himself into a routine of having his “bedtime bottle” at 10pm… I’m worried that this cycle will just continue. How can I change it? Or is it a case of holding it out until they understand the bedtime routine?

He used to have 6oz every 3 hours - last feed at 7pm and then he’d go right through to 6am. Now he wants 7oz but every 4 hours, if he keeps the same routine this will mean he’s down 2 oz across the day. Is this normal? Should I top him up at night?

My baby is 8 months old and has been fully breastfed up to now. I have a 4-day trip coming up in just a few days, and she’ll be staying with her dad. I’ve been trying to introduce formula (tried three different kinds), but she refuses it—makes a disgusted face and pushes it away. Has anyone been through this? Any f...

Help! Milton cold sterilising tablets for the last year have destroyed my hands. What on earth can I do to get them back to normal looking hands? Normal hand creams don’t work! Got builder hands 😭😂

How much formula is your 3 month old having and how often?

I need help. I accidentally gave my 5 week old a 6-12 month formula a couple days ago. We are combo feeding. I noticed two days ago that we were giving him the wrong formula and since then I breast fed him the first day and we gave him the correct formula too and have still been breastfeeding too but he is still eat...

How many mls of formula is your baby having each feed? Just had my 9 week old in A&E and the doctor asked how much formula she's having and how often. I said around 150ml every 3-4 hours (except at night where she sleeps through from around 11pm - 6am) and he was shocked, he said she should be having 70-80ml every...

Mamas whose little ones have issues with throwing up have you tried the Kendamil goat formula? If so did it help the situation or make it worse? We’ve tried so many formulas and reflux medication but nothings working. Hoping that maybe this formula will work for my son.

My son got given this but it’s like he constantly Hungary and can’t get it enough can anyone recommend something to fill him up bit better please x

I’m thinking of getting the vital baby uv steriliser but what are everyone’s recommendations?

Looking for advice or mums in similar situation. My baby has been exclusively breastfed (no expressed milk or formula) and is about to start nursery. He’s my second child and I’ve had zero time or interest in expressing and don’t plan to when he starts nursery either. We’ve been offering him formula at least once ...
