My now 11 months old who usually inhales her formula is barely finishing her feeds. I'm at a loss why. She normally has 270 per feed x 3 feeds in 24 hours. But layely, she won't even finish half for the past 3 days. She is still eating solids though. Has anybody experienced this too at this stage? I am worried.

LO is 1 on Halloween so starting to transition to cows milk. However I’m concerned about his water intake. Will drink 3x6oz bottles, but literally only sips of water with meals - maybe 2oz a day. Will his thirst just naturally increase as milk drops 🤔 How much water is your LO drinking alongside their milk?

My nephew is formula fed, and the stores around him havent had his formula. He has a lot of belly issues. I didnt know if anyone has an extra can or know a store that sells a formula close to it. I breastfeed so Im not really sure what to look for. He only has enough for a day or two.

How the crap are we dealing with the fact that our babies are 2 months old now….

Hi ladies! Question, how often are your Formula fed babies eating? My son is 6months 2weeks, and is having a 6oz bottle every 4hrs on the dot 🥲 I mean fussing at 3:30 and screaming for bottle at 4hrs. Is it too much? I tried doing 6oz every 5hrs but he can’t seem to wait that long. I’m concerned about whether…

My girl is 12 weeks old, she’s on Kendamil organic (normal Kendamil atm due to shortage) but she should in theory be drinking around 5oz a time now but we’re still stuck on 3-4, sometimes the occasional 5oz. I also log all her feeds and over a 24 hour period she drinks between 20-24oz which I don’t think is enough? ...

My 3 month old is really struggling with her feeds recently, will take it to begin with but as soon as we stop and burp her she refuses to take the bottle again and is just crying for about 20-30 mins before taking it again. We always get a few burps out when feeding so I don’t think it’s gas. When she is settled it...

Hi what replacements are you using and liking in place of the regular teat bottle for toddlers having milk please

How's everyone finding their formula? Currently been using Hipp Organic. Recently it's taking forever just to feed(I have tried to size up the teat, but just overflows) Also, he will then sick up a lot of the milk, few 30-45mins later. He also poos every 2-3days, and on the day he finally opens bowels. It's like ...

Hello, we’re suffering a really bad kendamill shortage where I live (only toddler milk available) can anyone recommend an alternative? We were using Kendamill organic, I’ve just purchased some Aptamill but really would like to hear some of your thoughts and whether anyone else has switched.

We’re going away tomorrow, can I just take my babies formula in his bag as usual in a little pot?! Can I get the boiling water on my flight?

My little boy has just turned one 🥹🥳 and is still having 3 x 7oz bottles a day (with 3 meals) plus snacks (he’s a hungry boy😂). Just curious on how many of you are still using formula with your little ones, once they’ve turned 1 and if so how many bottles are you giving them?

Hey! I’m looking for a little bit of advice on which steriliser is best, I will hopefully be using Mam bottles which I know are self sterilising so do I really need a steriliser and if so which one? There’s so many it’s such a mind field 🤯🤍

My little boy is 9 days old today, but he does between 3-4oz already on his bottle. He is never content after 2-3oz which is the guideline for this age. Don’t know if it makes a difference but he weighed 8lbs8oz at birth (40+6). Very worried he’s taking too much. Anyone else’s baby drink a lot?

Hi everyone, I’m due my second baby in March - I exclusively breastfed my previously baby - I have NO clue how to make bottles at home/out and about and the whole cleaning the process. I’ve researched so much and I just get so confused. I’m so close to buying a baby brezza bottle cleaning machine that costs over £30...

He has just turned 5 months today but I would say for the last month he has refused to drink anything during the day, he will cry for a bottle like he is hungry but drink 2oz (if am lucky!) but will happily drink 5 oz every 3 hours during the night when he’s not fully awake. He has been on kendamil since birth but w...

Good morning! What formula is everyone planning on using?

If so what does your feeding routine look like day to day?

What does everyone’s food/milk routine look like? Usually we do 6am - wake up & bottle (8) 8am - breakfast 10am - snack 12pm - lunch 1.30 - bottle (5) 3 - snack 5.30 - dinner 7 - bottle (8) Recently he’s been waking up for a bottle again around 3am so I’m wondering whether to drop the first morning bottle? ...

Why does it have to be fresh water and over 1 litre in the kettle? The amount of water I’m wasting is ridiculous . Is it really that important to follow?
