I’m introducing SMA Advanced formula to my currently EBF baby. What do you do when you are out for the day and using powdered formula? Do you prepare bottles in advance? Sorry if it’s obvious but it’s all new to me

I'm new to purees as I didn't do them with my first, except for the odd soup but that didn't work out so doing a combination of purees and blw this time. What is the best way to store/freeze purees if you cook more than baby will eat. How do you manage /rotate these?

Has anyone else noticed a decrease in their baby’s appetite over time? My baby is now taking less than half the amount of formula he used to, and it’s been almost two weeks. He’s using MAM bottles with a size 2 teat. Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated. 😔

Any tips on hand expressing colostrum?

so my LO is 10 weeks old and has a milk allergy. the doctors have prescribed a special formula to try if i don’t feel i can cut dairy out of my diet as she is exclusively breast fed. i’m so torn on if i should move her to formula or stick with breastfeeding and try to cut dairy out completely. or maybe try combine f...

How are people planning to move from formula to milk, also how are people dropping feeds as at the moment my baby is very still dependent on milk. He has five bottles a day which I plan to start reducing over time and hopefully only be on two bottles. Just wondered how everyone has found balancing bottles and food.

I’ve been gifted a Momcozy M5, I was going to test it and am reading the manual. Saw that you can’t use microwave nor UV steriliser (which I have). It’s showing to sterilise with hot boiling water but if it touches the sides it can cause damage blah blah 😶‍🌫️ Does anyone have this brand? Can I use cold water…

My little girl has her bottles at room temperature. She is on special milk so I have to boil the kettle in the morning and pre fill the water ready for the day. I've found now it's colder the bottles seem colder. How do you guys keep it at room temp and when you go out?

My baby is 6 weeks old and weighs 14 pounds 5 ounces. He’s on the 98th centile for weight. (He was 8’10 at birth). He’s waking up 5 times in the night to feed and takes a good 45 mins to an hour to feed. Then during the day he wants to feed every hour. We’re EBF and on demand but it’s too much for me. He’s always h...

My LG is 4 weeks old and is currently having 4oz every 3 hours during day, but 2 hours during the night. Is this an ok amount to be feeding her?! She was on 3oz but was never settled and always hungry after! She was born 6 weeks early so im just very unsure with things as feel i didn’t “prep” as best I could with ...

My baby wants to drink 5 oz of milk every two hours and at this point my supply is seriously dropping. I don’t want to start formula. I need help!! Any advice? I’m only getting like 4 oz every two hours now. Is he eating way too much or is it just me? He has been dealing with a stomach issue and has been having diar...

Will this baby be the 2nd under 2 when born for anyone? I am excited but so nervous my baby is only 7 months old and will be 16 months when June baby arrives. Not sure how I will have energy to take care of my 7 month old who can’t walk 😫😫

My LO is 2 months now and continues to have a bottle top up after being on my breast (due to limited milk supply) but only has 2-3oz (sometimes less) of formula. Feel like she should be drinking more as she’s getting older/bigger but hard to know exactly how much she’s having in total. Her weight has been stable so ...

My baby's 15mos and recently transitioned from infant to toddlers' room. She's been on formula since she was 5th months. The daycare keeps on insisting on cow's milk for her and not the formula I provide. My husband and I believe there's more nutrients in the formula than the cows milk but what do yall think? I just...
