mschar-how r u feelin?? hope u recovered well...
I just discharge today...
Csect also painful...
Now i only have little colostrum.. So stress!
Ladies, my bb likes to sleep, don't think I am giving her enough milk. and mum started giving her water everytime she hiccups. Really worried. How?
Just wanna ask when do we need to bring baby to see a paediatrician?
Kitkats csec is painful (the recovery stage) procedure is fast and furious but guess you endure 45hrs before going into e-csec also can feel the pain. Don't worry colostrum abit soon keep expressing out then milk will start flowing.
Snow I stick to avent lol. I think my babies super nipple confusion already but I guess I am not latching them already. But they nipple confusion among bottles. I do wish can latch them but don't know why just seems to be problem. If without help of pillow (like carry them and feed the position I don't seems to be able to get it, arms also very tired carry them) i actually so hope I can be like those bf mum outside walk just use shawl cover can feed Liao.
Bbhc my bb also hiccups a lot. That day my sil also feed some plain water to bb but after that I didn feed more already. My bb on fm and bm.
yes they try tooo many bottles, from avent to dr browns to nuk then como tomo then back to avent then back to como and back to dr browns and finally avent as of today lol. this is mad! should I try tommee tippee?? hehehe my lil girl don't latch then the elder one can latch better but also impatient if hungry will fuss. do u pump snow? I am wondering when can I start to drop the 3hrly pump yet still maintain the flow. very troublesome I every 2-3hrs need to excuse myself to pump and most times it happen when my babies are hungry also in end I cannot feed them as I am pumping. no bond not even able to bottle feed them myself. yesterday I carry my younger girl cry like mad then my mum carry she ok already very sad wonder isit she find me stranger.
now my girls at night 10plus don't want to sleep, need to coax them to sleep can take very long. do we need to like have a schedule for them so they know when roughly is sleeping time. don't know how to do also.
Mine also need sucking and my body warm to keep him comfort throughout the night.
I find him having a habit to suck just the nipple only and not opening mouth wide enough. Then he gets frustrated for not getting milk. Don't know what to do...
Breastfeeding is an art!!!
Snow check with u for pigeon bottles there is also a air vent at the teats that one also must face up(pointing towards bb nose) when drinking? Can I just say all brands regardless got the air vent on teats one all Should be pointing towards bb nose?
Yes I agree that breastfeeding is an art!
Luckily my gal can latch pretty well. Like what Snow said and what I had learnt from the lactation nurse at KKH during my ward stay, we need to be a little rough and push baby's head towards our nipple and areola. If we are too gentle, baby tends not to be cooperative. When we grab our nipple and areola area, our fingers need to be parallel to baby's mouth. Then when baby's mouth open wide, push our nipple and areola area and baby's head to come together to achieve effective suckling. The lactation nurse taught me to do it this way.
I will also try to squeeze a little breast milk to lure my gal to suckle and it works.
I notice my gal is getting very strong now. I am amazed by the amount of strength she has gained over 2 weeks.
Just now Mdm Emma massaged her and she really enjoyed it so much! No crying at all. Mdm Emma said there are some babies who cry so loudly that she can't massage at all.
Next weekends will be her full month celebration! Oh how time flies! Very fast, right?
CL said my gal enjoys bath time everyday. Also no crying at all. I am thinking of buying her the float that they use at baby spa and let her swim at my place's swimming pool. I saw the float at Oct baby's fair. Cost only $15.My bb fail to be tbf hopefully next bb can with is experience I make sure I do better the next round haha
U can bring ur bb go bb spa let her have a swim see she will enjoy anot

faithfullyours mdm emma do bb massage also? all in the pkg price? so when she do bb massage bb sleeping or awake?
I thought only can bring bb to the swim spa around 6 months when the neck is strong? mmmm not sure too but m interested as well to do so soon. just bought spectra s1 pump hope can yield more bm...one moment I am tempted to stop yet next moment keep looking at pump etc.
Iwahb, the baby massage is complimentary. Today is my last session with Mdm Emma according to my package (7 sessions for $450 with 1 complimentary baby massage) but I extend another 3 more sessions with her. These 3 sessions, I'll do alternate days instead of consecutive days.faithfullyours mdm emma do bb massage also? all in the pkg price? so when she do bb massage bb sleeping or awake?

My gal was awake when Mdm Emma was massaging her. She was smiling too.
Actually I am also looking at alternative breast pump. Feels that Avent breast pump is not very strong.
Snow, can I ask which one is better, Medela or Spectra?
If it's Medela, which one should I buy?
If it's Spectra, which one should I buy?
Actually during the Oct baby fair, I wanted to buy Medela freestyle but because I already bought the Avent one, so I thought I should give it a try first before I dismiss it.Hmm I dun use spectra so I not sure
I'm using medela dual swing so far I'm ok with it if u want a better u can try freestyle alot of ppl using this

I just googled and Spectra seems to have better reviews than Medela.Normally breast pump the better one are medela coz is hospitals grading those avent or pigeon is just a waste of money my frien say avent the suction is not as strong as medela
I just googled and Spectra seems to have better reviews than Medela.
Where did you order Spectra? S1 or M1?I ordered spectra too. Waiting for delivery.
Ladies who engage cl, do u let cl watch tv when she free?
What are the do n don't rules ?
How much does ur bb drink at 4days old? I have low supply of milk. Cannot meet my bb demand. Now mostly on fm....
I have appt with poly clinic to check bb jaundice. So do I still go back to see pd at kkh ?
Tonight I'm giving my boy bottle feed but not sure how much to give. How much does your LO take at day 9?
I think it depends on your comfort level. I let my CL do her stuff, watch TV as long as my baby is well taken care of. I am very particular with cleanliness, how she handles baby's bottles and my breast pump, etc. I want my gal to sleep in the cot. She also helps us with household chores.Ladies who engage cl, do u let cl watch tv when she free?

Wah iwahb, how come you buy so many breast pumps? So your verdict is spectra m1 is better?Faithfullyours I ordered my spectra s1 at Qo10 $290 I got Medela fs and both spectra m1 and s1, personally I think spectra better the suction seems more "rough" or maybe I m brainwashed by a lot people that spectra good spectra better so I thought so too hehe.
I just used my s1 twice don't know somehow feel not as good as m1 maybe s1 too many options and choice need to try and error to see which option gives u the best yield. So far I don't see increase of yield using s1 (I thought might be better compare to m1) in fact it looks even abit affected (10ml lesser)
