Before Xmas she was on 4x6oz and this week I’m lucky to get 2x5oz!!! She is on me a lot more but I wouldn’t say a lot, lot! I have weighed her this week and couple weeks ago and she’...

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make formula prep easier/quicker? I looked at the Tommee Tippee Perfect Prep machine, but that only makes feeds of 4oz or larger, but we're doing 2oz top-ups.

Looking for advice, my nine month old has pretty much dropped her daytime bottles with her now having three meals a day and snacks, the only downfall to this is she’s not really having much water.

I thought since he will be having a n...

I have just been accepted for my little boy to go to nursery 2 mornings a week, starting in April. He turns 2 beginning of march. Now it’s all set in stone I’m starting to doubt myself that he may still be too young. I have no work commitments that means I need to send him but he’s an only child and is never around ...

My boy has been refusing feeds cuz he’s ill. This is literally the only type of teet he will have a full bottle with, the hospital gave us a few but they’re disposable.

my 2 week old is on kendamil organic formula but last day or so she’s been spitting up after her feeds and she wasn’t doing that. she was taking 2oz now maybe a little under 3oz but she will ask for it. i’m not sure if i should switch or just lower the amount i’m giving her.. she takes about 3oz every 3 to 4 hours
