I love looking after my son and I could not think of anything better than being his mummy.

Formula Milk

I breast fed my little boy for 4 weeks and because it wasn't filling him up anymore we moved onto formula. We use cow and gate hungry baby milk, which is brilliant as it is heavier than normal milk and keeps my little man fuller for longer.

Feeding baby with a bottle can be complicated at first as it's hard to establish the amount of milk the baby needs and how many ounces they will have before they throw up. The best way to do this is to follow the amount on the packet in correlation with the babies weight.

Having said that I had to up the ounces for my baby's milk as he is a hungry baby.

Now we have dropped his ounces of milk because he has food now.

Good tip with bottle feeding is to watch their moods the bottle and if they are happy then they are probably full and it they are grumpy then they are probably still hungry.
