Drop in milk intake

My LO is coming go 5 months and she's is starting to drink lesser milk. she's been drinking expressed breastmilk since she 2 months, but recently she doesn't seems to be hungry or wanting to drink milk. I have not start solid foods for her yet. she's still active as usual. I really don't know what happened. anyone can advise?

as babies grow older, time between feeds will also go longer.

transition from breastmilk to formula.

i tried with Abott Grow formula milk and few hours later my baby vommited (abt 1/4 of the milk). i tried giving her again but she kind of gags. prolly bc it tasted new to her. should i keep trying to feed her? (this time less quantity. i think she was overfed....) and how much time should i give her? few days to try again? help 🫣

Did you try to mix breastmilk and formula to let her get used to it? What I did when I want to wean off bm and switched to formula is that I started with 80(bm)-20(formula), then slowly increase formula to 50-50, then subsequently transit to full formula. And according to the nan representative, she said some babies will need at least 8-15 tries before accepting formula.

Grow Infant Milk

hello! looking into mix feeding & slowly transit to formula milk. just ordered Abott Grow because it is kind of affordable. when i was a baby, i love this brand and grew up with it. but i know as time advanced, usually there's a change in recipe and/or coutries (of imported) affects too. any feedbacks on this particular formula milk?

Poo so many times

Hi my baby is going to be 6 months old. Since yesterday she is poo around 4 times. Poo is not watery though. Please advice whether needs to be worried?#pleasehelp #FTM #firsttimemom #firstbaby #firstmom

I am facing the same issue. My 6 months old poo after every feeding. She had it since Tuesday. We visit dr and we got Densitin cream as well as some other medication to mix with water to stop the diarrhea. There was only few reason as to why it happened. Either milk, stomach flu or food transition like cerelac, puree, porridge. No specific diagnosis. As long as she eat and drink milk well, we don't have to be over worry as advice by the doctor.

Consider getting a sleep sack, can get cheap one from SHEIN for a try.

Baby boy always hungry

My 5 month++ old son always seems hungry. I wonder if it’s normal thing for baby boy? I normally feed him every 3 hours, 150 ml. But recently, it went to every 2 hours or sometimes even after one hour of his feeds he will be very fussy. Tried so many things like put him to sleep or etc but doesn’t works. After feeding him milk again, he’s ok. I’m afraid of overfeeding him but so far he doesn’t throw out milk. #firsttimemom

should be growth spurt

Labels for infant care

Hi mummies, understand that I'm supposed to label LO's bottles for infant care. What about clothes and towels? Do yall label everything individually and how? Not keen to use those ink stamp, as the clothes have to pass down to his cousin few months apart.

Early pregnancy ultrasound

Hello mummies, I not sure am I over worry. My first day of last period is on 13 July 2023 & I tested positive on 7 aug as still just faint line, follow this app by now baby should be 6 weeks plus. 24 Aug I go for my 1st appointment & did ultrasound but only can yolk sac & not clear fetal pole still can’t see the baby. Izzit still early for it to see the baby or app edd is not accurate?

Every numbers you see regardless on the ultrasound scans, online or the apps are just rough gauge, not 100% accurate. If you mentioned 6weeks, sometimes it might still be too early. You should be able to see more clearly at week 8.
