Got the strangest parenting 'advice' from the mil the other day...to mix coke a cola or pepsi in with formula/expressed breastmilk in the bottle so 'it tastes nice for him', WTF! who does that?!

I love my mil and shes a massive help- i vouldnt be without her, but sometimes i do wonder how dh survived childhood

I'm 50 and my grandmother used to tell my mother to put a couple of drops of brandy into my formula to help colic, it relaxes the muscles apparently and settles babies to sleep better. Have zero clue what Coca Cola is supposed to do though.
