Just curious to know about your feeding routines for your little ones. How often do you give them a bottle of milk, and how much do they usually drink each time? Trying to get an idea of what works for others. Thanks in advance!

Do y’all sterilize baby bottles after each use or how does this work ? I been doing it after each use but I was told not every use ? 😩

My baby started 3 meals this week (not eating lots at all but trying things), however is still tanking bottles, roughly 32oz per day - I've played around with giving less but this results in waking in the night crying for milk - so I obviously I don't want this - am I giving too much? Baby showing no signs of wantin...

I hope this makes sense... if 6oz of formula per feed is recommended, does that mean:

How many pre-made formulas should I bring in my hospital bag? They are 70ml bottles and I’m booked in for a c section so will be in minimum overnight. I know some hospitals provide formula but i plan to use kendamil and they don’t always stock that.

I know its a long shot but anyone in my local area I need of first stage kendamil. My daughter is on allergy milk and I have some sealed tubs and ready made bottles we haven't used.

Do all baby's come off formula at 1? My baby eats food but showing no signs of dropping her milk. She's one next month and still having the same amount of milk since I can remember. She loves her milk

I don’t know how to use either of these. I’m guessing they’re pretty easy but should I have a practise making bottles up before hand or is it a waste? I’m 37 weeks now so could be any time and I didn’t want to be stood messing with a crying baby waiting for feeds etc. what did everyone else do?

Mama of 3week old baby. He his formula fed. He has 4oz every 3/4 hours. Is this too much or not enough?

My baby has always been a really good drinker m, now over the last couple days he will struggle drinking a couple ounces and cry on the bottle? Has this happened to anyone else? We haven’t changed formula or bottles

What age did you change your baby from the bassinet to the sit up part

My lo was on size 1 teat with nutramigen which is thinner than most formulas she's 3 months this week I upped to size 2 she's been OK is finishing quicker but hv recommend to go down a size I've tried and she's taking longer does anyone have any advice as now I'm questioning which teat size is best

Hi mamas, My baby just had his 4 months check up and he was weighing 7.3 kgs. The doctor told me that he was 75th percentile. She was concerned about how much we’re feeding him. She told us to not exceed formula over 1L in 24 hours. We tried to reduce the amount we give him but he genuinely needs more. He cries a...

Is anyone else’s 3 week old on 120ml (4oz ish) and draining the whole bottle on majority of feeds? I feed on demand and she is going around 3hrs between feeds in the day and goes 4-5hr during the night (on odd occasions 6hrs). On average she has between 6-7 bottles a day She looks to be gaining weight and is get...

Has anyone tried By Heart Formula? Your thoughts? With the Kendamil shortage- I need to find an alternative soon - thank you

My 13 month old is having his 3 meals a day, but still likes alot of milk. How much cows milk are your little ones having? I just can't seem to wean him off it.

hey mamas!! i’m a ftm and utterly confused🤣 my little one will be a year old in less then a month and we are about a week away from being full milk, no formula. my question is, once he is drinking full milk, do i still offer 4 bottles of milk? or do i cut back and just add my solids? our feeding schedule is…

Hiya can anyone tell me when to drop the last bottle of milk? He currently still has one at night but will only drink half if that x

We went to our 1 year check up and the doctor for said we need to transition her out of formula into cows milk. She can only take 16 oz vs 24 oz she was taking. My problem is my daughter does not eat sufficiently enough to keep her full. She obviously expects a bottle knowing that will satisfy her tummy. I don’t kno...
