I agree with Laura hun ;)  My LO is 22 1/2 months old so formula isn't her main source of nutrition at all... she just has about 10-12 ozs a day to fill in nutritional gaps right now... she is milk intolerant otherwise, she would have cow's milk ;)

I agree with changing nipple sizes as well... Laura had to remind me to stick with it when I switched as well.  I would use the bigger one in the AM then move to the smaller for her BT bottle when she was sleepier... it just confused her!  Once I jumped to the bigger one, it took a day or two for her to adjust and then things were golden again :)  For us, 20 mins was a long feed!  DD has always been a guzzler ;)

Hey girls - no worries about thread hogging - hog away! But hope it gets sorted - as I was reading through I was going to suggest if it take her that long, she's not really hungry as Laura said.

A LOT stronger. Ibuprofen doesn't even touch DS's canine and 2nd year molar pain.

Well Medised is much stronger but obviously no longer approved for use in children under 12 now I think? Or is it still 6?

What they need to do is invent a stronger pain killer that isn't a sedative. Then they won't ban it for use in little ones....
