1. How often do you feed your new born baby ?
I BF every 3 hours, I planned it that way. I fed DD1 on demand and it was a nightmare, she fed every 1.5hrs and never got enough, so with no 2 I fed 3 hours apart.
2. Have you tried bottle feeding and B/F ? I used bottle and breast from very early on. No nipple confusion (i topped her up with EBM). She slowly weaned herself after 8 monhts.
3. When bottle feeding , how much milk / formula should you be feeding your baby ? /Whatever it says on the tin? I didn't formula feed until 9 months. Now I just give her 100ml a few times a day, she rarely has it all.

Panadol and any wind medicine that a newborn can have!
6. How often do you change your newborn baby's nappy ?

7. Do you recommend cloth nappies or disposable nappies for new borns ? why ?
