Hello ladies
one for all the mam bottle users here!!
I’ve just started on mam bottles as baby kept choking on tomee tipee as the flow was too fast even on the slowest teat…
anyway, when making up a bottle of formula I’ve always worked off ml, instead of Oz.
On the tomee tipee bottles the ml and Oz difference isn’t a lot based on where the lines are on the bottle, however on the mam bottles it seems like a really big difference in the likes… for example, the line at 150ml is much higher than the line at 5oz on the mam bottles even though 5oz is meant to equal 150ml in baby bottle world.
i probably sound really dim but I really don’t want to be making up formula incorrectly and can’t work out whether it’s me that’s the problem or whether the mam measurements are wrong lol.. it also seems that I measure my 150ml of water and then once all is said and done before I feed baby there will be an extra Oz in the bottle! Someone said it’s because I stand the bottle in cold water to cool it down and the bottle is taking in the water but DH said this is impossible…
would really appreciated those who are experienced with the mam bottles to give me your advice on these measurements as I’m driving myself bloody nuts trying to work it out lol… Thank you x
