am trying out the klorane hair loss treatment serum.... i pray it is sth that is short-lived. was whining to my mom about it and she told me that it is a common problem =X
Click to expand...
Yes it's a common problem. Maintain or increase ur vit...

Lack of vit will prolong the hair loss period...

I got a friend wanna slim down.. so on diet after giving birth. End up her hair loss last until bb 1 yr old N 1 big hole with no hair...

Went doc n doc say partly due to lack of vitamins... cannot diet at this stage ..

I stuff the pacifier back n bb will push it out again n wanna talk to me.

Then I stuff again. If bb push out again. Then I reject n turn my back facing him n I go back to sleep. He will play awhile n go back to sleep .

Mummies who went back to work, can I ask how many times you managed to express at work?

For storage wise, I can put the milk in the bottle with some ice pack and put them in the fridge?

Pump parts after using rinse in hot water and put in lock and lock container and put in the fridge too?
Click to expand...

Same as Esther, I pump 2 times a day. Usually 10plus and then 4 or 5plus in the afternoon.

After pumping, I put the milk bags in the fridge, never put with ice pack.

Pump parts just put in container and put in fridge too... Bottles I also reuse, just screw tight the tops and dump in fridge....

I wash everything before I go back home and leave out to dry. Next day come back offer then fill the container with water and sterilising tablet.

My gal has seemed to have lost her cheeks :( her milk intake is down to abt 700ml a day now from abt 900ml. Shd I be concerned??
Click to expand...

My boy also seemed to drink less, always leaving milk behind, esp at the 6-7+pm feed before I reach home.

I was told most important is their poo and pee output. As long as still poo and pee as per normal then should be okay.

ooo so far I haven't introduced the pacifier yet, in the middle of the night if she wakes up, I will just go and nurse her and then put her back into the cot

but the past 3 days she's able to sleep 5-6 hours straight at night, fingers crossed that it will become the norm

oooo I intro pacifier since she very young to save my sanity, I think I had a pretty bad post natal blues during that time..
I kudos to mummies who don't use pacifier, how u guys make bb stop crying when they reach a like a screaming stage or soothe them to sleep without pacifier, nurse them to sleep? my gal sometimes fall asleep on her own when I babywear her, at home, she still need to suckle a bit to fall asleep then I pull the pacifier out. haha

Mmmm I haven't used a pacifier so far. I cuddle and talk to her to soothe her. I have also more or less trained her to fall asleep on her own. I'd initially cuddle / pat her until she is drowsy, then I'd put her down. She'd sometimes play on her own for a bit before falling asleep on her own.

I am worried about the same thing too, was commenting to my sis that bb grew thinner and only gained 0.05kg over te last 2 weeks. Also the lack of appetite. She say maybe my boy needs to get used to the new care givers..
See alr very heart pain.

Same here, some how I feel our LOs cannot regulate their temperature very well, so he is still wearing socks at home and outside.

Yap, I do feel that the feet is colder especially during rainy dates, think they still can't regulate their tempt very well, I will wear socks on those days. then when my ah ma come visit, quickly remove the socks hahaa
Anybody bb got sweaty feet? my gal feet is rather sweaty lei.. aiyo...
 
The masseuese (donno how to spell) lady told me baby need to wear sock, if not sock, booties. Or else must swaddle or cover their feet with blanket. She reasoned that exposed feet makes baby very vulnerable. Baby easily gets chill/cold and other sicknesses because heat escapes from their exposed feet. Not sure how true is that but im following her orders because i think its quite factual? When we think abt it, during our confinement period where we are vulnerable, we are also told to cover up and wear socks. So i think it applies reasonably to babies...

for washable ones how do we attach them to the bra? cos for disposables there is the adhesive then I just stick onto my nursing bra...
Click to expand...

My bra is spoil from using Avent disposable pads. Le sigh. Now using pigeon nursing pads. Adhesive not so strong as avent. Can stick to bra but wont spoil. Bbut now i also find that it is very uneconomical too. :(
Thinking of getting washable ones from SPRING. But i heard quite ex. Anyone gotten good washable ones yet? From where ah?

Sounds like I gotta ask my mum to let her wear socks again at home.
 
My bb coming 4th month. Wear socks everyday without fail. His feet will get sweaty even in aircon room.. but after removing to let it air awhile, it became icy cold. So i rather him sweat. Sometimes i would wipe with wet wipes than apply powder. I feel that feet cold is not good for body. I personally feel that if my feets are cold, I wouldnt be comfortable too.

I let my bb wear when weather not so hot.

He has sweaty feet n cold... my ah ma says coz his body weak...

But i didn't wear for hot days as his toes was squash in my tummy n the last toe abit not aligned together. Thus need massage it regularly.

But now his toes is ok already...

I bought lots of socks... but i realised I always forgot to wear for him.. wasted
