How many bottles , how many ounces and how often after your babies taken bottles in a day?

My boy is really stressing me out, he’s just less and less interested with his bottles every day. He’s only taking about 10-12 oz in 24 hours now weaning. I think he’s just bored of it? Has anyone experienced this?

Hi, My son is 3 months old and still drinking 3 ounces per feed/every 2 to 3 hours. Even if I give him more he would never finish it. What should I do to help him get more please! And how many ounces your little ones drink?

My baby currently drinks 8 Oz of formula milk 3 times a day, she also eats 3 meals a day and loves her food very much. I've been reading the NHS guidance and it says 10 month old babies only need 400ml of formula, Is it time to start slowly cutting down her bottles?

Hi, I have a 4 week old son who is constantly crying between 3-8pm. This has started around the time we have increased his bottle feed portion.

Bubba is 6 weeks. He was having almost 4 ounces of expressed breast milk every 4 hours. He’s now crying for milk every 2 hours and finishing 5 ounce bottles and is very fussy. Surely it’s too much milk for such a tiny bubba. How are your little ones feeding?

Hiya, my little one is 14 weeks old and will soon out grow her small white tommee tippee bottles, I have also been using the larger anti colic tommee tippee bottles (pic below) but I hate them!

Those that are combi feeding with the odd bottle of formula, when did you start doing this? Are you just give one bottle a day? Currently ebf, but my god its intense isn't it

I’ve had a few friends and we all seem to age our babies differently. Do you use 4 weeks = 1 month or would you say if your baby is born on January 1st, on March 1st they would be 2 months? My husband and I are using different methods so I’m wondering what others do. Thanks!!

I cannot get Kendamil first infant formula (stage 1) ANYWHERE! Had to buy a tin of organic. My question is has anyone had the same issue and tried baby with the organic? Were they ok? Any stomach problems? Etc?

Hi all, just wondering how much your 6 weeks old are on for formula? My little girl is on 120ml but noticing she is finishing quickly and sometimes wanting milk around 2 hour mark so wondering to up to 150ml?
