Medusa,
Me, still working hard bfg JR...5 months liao... and true very very not easy... esp when go out... I have to either feed him in the car or in the nursing room. And when work piles up...supply dropped... esp recently I am damn unlucky...and feeling down ..my ss also dropped drastically! But I really wish to bf JR for long..as long as I can.
Really enjoy the every moment JR latch on my breasts. The closest is really beyond description. And when u see him smile at you after his milk milk, it really warms your heart! I told myself no matters how difficult, I will still try...imagine when I was very sick not long ago, I have to opt for medicines that are ok for bfg mums..but take damn long to recover..and now my nose still bleed occassionally.
Actually I hate to wake up early to express milk too! Like this morning, I woke up at around 5.30am to express milk and then cos' cannot sleep liao decided to iron a few clothes...and ended 'burnt' my fav shirt ...maybe too tired...
HAte to express during work time, so reduced my pumping session to only once at work! during lunchtime somemore...no social life for me to mingle with colleagues and cannot drive out for good lunch
Aiya, bfg has to sacrifice alot... I dun know how long I can tahan, but I wish I can tahan long... and I know some mummies like Blisse and cosmo is giving me lots of support here! Dun want to disappoint myself and them too! Also, know of some mums who bfg their darlings till 2 years old..or even longer ...think I will take them as role models and inspiration for bfg.
IF I am sahm...then most problems are not a problem at all! Too bad, cannot be a sahm yet but I am planning to for my next bb.
