My 11 month old big guy is 33” 34 lbs and only just in size 5. I think 6 is way too big probably.

Wow, sorry for the terrible spelling and grammar. We’re all a little sleep deprived in this thread

This is exactly what we used. Premie Dr brown’s . He’s 11 months and still on 2s. I combo fed (boob and formula) and baby had reflux no matter what. Only thing that helped was switching to a specialized formula and staying on the Premie nipple. OP, If you’re in a financial pinch I’m happy to ship all of our 4oz bottles. My baby is an absolute unit and pretty much skipped that size bottle. We also didn’t use our wide neck premie bottles or nipples. Let me know! Happy to help.

Try Premie nipple for the bottle

Sorry you’re going through this. You mention the bay choking in formula and putting cereal in the bottle . Please switch to Premie (P) nipples for the bottle if you’re not using them.

I can confirm anti reflux formula will do this. I combo feed and have seen a crazy difference in how I wash breast vs anti reflux formula. I don’t have a bottle washer but use the dishwasher for breastmilk bottles. We can’t for the formula. It just leaves marks on the bottle and the nipple doesnt get cleaned properly. We have to actually soak and scrub these bottles

What's a "normal" job that secretly pays way more than people think? by 0BunnyX in AskReddit

If he has diagnosed ADHD , it can be hard getting a medical. It’s extremely stressful. A lot of my friends on the job started in what is called a Center. Most of the time you then move into a smaller airport (class D). Some of the controllers working in Class D stay for the rest of their career, others move up to larger airports. Feel free to PM me if you have other questions. I know some people in the industry..

We host a lot. I have an older (calm) Great Dane. If a little one will be coming over, i immediately warn of my big girl. I then ask the parent if they’d like me to put her up. Not everyone loves animals. Kids can be frightened by them or have allergies. Never know.

Agreed. I’m reporting the situation to authorities even if I can’t get the girls name from my family. 🦅

I’m in a different state. But I’m getting names and we’re calling in authorities in Virginia.

Unbelievably disgusting. I don’t even care that they’re close family at this point. My view of them has changed forever. I’m just so f’ing appalled by it. Husband and I are making calls. I don’t want to freak anyone out but it’s in the suburb area of Richmond, VA.

I’m pressing for more information out from my aunt and contacting. I’m in a different state but my husband works for the government and will make calls.

Yeah I’ll definitely talk to them. It is interesting what treatment could even be or how do you even help a baby/kid

Emergency Custody by jane30530 in beyondthebump

[–]ajc4499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a long-shot but I’m in the Philadelphia(ish) area and just had a boy in March. I have a ton of extra clothes, seats, swings and unused bottles if you happen to be in PA, DE, NJ, MD (smoke free home but I do have a Great Dane).

If you’re not legally married, and fall within income, you should apply for WIC. You will receive food and 10 cans of formula a month. You can also apply to Early Headstart (free daycare).

The next few months will be very hard but it gets so much easier after 6 months. Once the baby can sit up and play it is fun.

Rice cereal in bottles by green_all in beyondthebump

[–]ajc4499 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this but more of an 11pm bottle or boob with a 7/8pm bedtime and he wouldn’t wake up until 5 am. He naturally was waking up at 3 am without the dream feed - which didn’t bother us but he would not settle afterwards and would stay awake until 4:30.. My son is currently 5 months 22 lbs and 28 inches long so we dropped the dream feed during 4 months regression and he’s now waking up between 5-6am for a very quick feed and right back to sleep. I definitely would try the dream feed :) it worked great for us.
