went to see LC today, omg, burn one big hole in pocket, consultation 130, pills for increasing supply 48, n she wants to see me again on thurs for review, that's another 110. go already can DL never mind, i seem to be able to do it there but once i'm home, my boy doesn't want to latch again. so now i'm back to pumping. damn sian man... feel like giving up on this whole DL business n just pump all the way. should be the same right?
anyway, for mummies who r interested in what i learned today, the position of bf-ing is different. think in hospitals they use either the cradle hold or football hold, here they use "biological nurturing laid-back" bf-ing, where the mummy slouches back on a comfy couch, n the bb lies on mummy's tummy, almost diagonally across the body. its actually pretty comfortable for both mummies n bbs... so comfy that my boy keeps on falling asleep when i try at home. to increase supply, need to drink more water, rest more, eat rolled oats and brewer's yeast, n interestingly, she suggested acupuncture. must DL/pump every 2-3 hrs in the day, 3-4 hrs max at night, cannot sleep thru. if boobs r engorged, she does not recommended hard massages, instead she says can use electric toothbrush, or electric shaver, and press the flat side to the lump, n gently massage towards the nipple.
