I hate this stage. When does it get better.. the separation anxiety, the yelling, the hitting, I feel myself going insane.

I already know imma be too busy to sterilize bottles by hand, so I was looking at this brand. Idk if I can use other brands of bottles that fit in it too?

I am trying to introduce a bottle to my little girl (again) , just wondering what size teat to use ?

Hey all! Baby girl arrived 10/6/24. We brought colostrum tickets the hospital and thankfully didn't need to use it but now I am trying to find ways to use it so it isn't wasted. Any easy ways you can think of? Can adults use it?

My LO is 7 months and I’ve been wanting to switch to fully bottle feeding as I feel like my milk isn’t filling her up much. But I don’t know how much oz to give her per feed as scared I’ll over feed her. I’m not quite sure how much milk she needs at this age as she’s also on solids/purées three times a day

Can I prep the same as regular formula? So hot shot? And same rules so can make it in advance, 2 hrs out the fridge, 24 in the fridge etc…?
