Qoo10 sells 4pkts at $68.90, while this NTUC Finest promo is $63.80 for the same 4pkts. It isn't often that such promo come along.
Hopefully Expo will have better offer.
Looks like my girl is a small eater and very petite too.
At 11+ weeks old,she's only drinking 80ml ebm when I'm not at home. When I'm around,I directly latch her on. And she only drinks from 1 side. Measured her weight at home last week; she was only 4.9kg at 11 weeks. Kinda worried about her growth but then, she looks fine and healthy. She was born at 37+ weeks though and only 2.4kg at birth.

Ar.. Nvr know can combine. My fridge a lot of milk bag now! Wahaha..
Juz now saw a video on FB while I'm pumping. Video say how working mums struggle to pump liquid gold for their bb at work. Watch till my tears keep flowing.. Muz keep watching this video to motivate myself! Feel so bless that my LO now on TBM and I still can afford to pump for her. 3 more weeks to work. Haiz...
My mum ask me to work half day in initial returning to work. Say my LO got separation anxiety! I think I will too... Sob...

Just went to e pd, and surprised dat bb is 4kg now at 5wks. Like i mentioned earlier, totally dun look like he gained much weight!
So funny, e older folks scared dun feed enough, we r scared of overfeeding. Im using e pacifier in btwn feedings, cos feel dat sometimes bb just need soothing. Yesterday bb keep regurgitating milk, then realised hubby has been feeding him 100ml or more! Told him to keep to 90ml then kena black face haiz.

#2 Is a boy. #1, 4 yr old ger. This time i dl till 3rd week when bb jaundice suddenly shoot up n was hospitalised due to breastmilk jaundice. Then i got mastitis as pump wasnt clearing enough. Bb hospitalised for 4 nights. Admitted drinking 60ml discharged drinking 80ml. Reached home drinks 120ml. (In 4 days) Supply couldnt catch up. Faint. To ensure bb drink enough, i only believe in pumping...

Did u buy spectra connector? The smaller flange comes with the narrow neck from what i heard can fit medela.
The wide neck cannot fit pigeon bottle cos the thread on the bottle is different.
Yea true that ur supply wont catch if DL n furthermore stressful jus to take care of them both! But nvm la, as long bb is growing well n u able to provide the best is good enough!
Now ur supply shld be quite stablised...
@MTB-2015 u been busy at work n ur girl... So far can cope? Now i counting down to the days left to go back work.....

I got the book from one of the seminar held during my pregnancy. Those sponsored by cordlife. The book made in fabric that one. Got 123 and abc book. Read that newborn only can see black and white and red. So I try to read bb a book. Seems he is staring at the book. Someone also told me why our nipple getting darker during our pregnancy is becoz for bb to see and recognize so they can easily find out where got milk one.

Woke up to DL and pump at 4.45 just now. Its been a while since my breast leak. And just now, woke up and my right breast leaking. Happy for a while. Hehehe...
My baby nowadays, kinda sleep thru the night alrdy. I give her the nipple once I feel her moving. She drinks while sleeping and I continue sleeping. Hehehe....
Endure a lil bit more mummies. Hope your babies will have longer sleeping time soon.
My girl will be having her 5 in 1 jab later in the afternoon. I kinda nervous for her. Hope she'll be ok. Or rather, I'll be ok. Hehehe

How abt Spectra S1+...? It's hospital grade and comes with massage function. So far it helps me to have 2 letdowns within 10mins. It really empty my boobies fast..and very quiet machine. I bot from qoo10 and shipped from Korea directly.

My bb also sleep quite long. 8pm go sleep then only wake up at 3am. Then DL half hour. Then I go back to sleep again. I wake up take bath at 6, prepare to go office then bb wake up at 7 to catch his last meal before mummy going to work. So smart. So I did not pump just ask bb to empty. Good! Lols
Spectra 9+ I bot in Qoo10 during time sale at $128, with dual pumps.
Having time sale now!

Wah been at least 1 week tat bb tortured nv me. Now he start all over! 3.30am latch to sleep, 5am den 8am.. Sleep more important den clear ducts for today. Haha.
@littlepurple , if u dun nid portable pump, can invest in hospital grade like wat @minidonut suggest. Can clear boobs faster... For me i really bo bian need pump any where any time
Mummies, jus to share what my mum 'taught' me. Duno if it can work for all, but for me i think it worked.
Dont take aftermoon naps... @.@ haha at first i freaked out, during confinement like nap x infinity... Haha. But really i feel less cranky after 3rd day of no napping. Even thou night feeds are a torture since DL i dun bother waking my hub up, amazingly i can manage and still wake up 8am not feeling moody, or even lack of sleep. Maybe is jus training body to take the tiredness and put it elsewhere.... So far 6th day...more to go before can conclude further. Haha

I woke up at 2.30am and 6.30am to pump. Pump till I kept dozing off. Was worried I dropped the bottles. Then bb woke up at 5.30am for milk. I helped to warm up the milk for hb to sleep before knocking out again. Then woke up 8.30am to have bf and prepare before bb wakes up. So sleepy.

@dreamersg , yes u can start to remove her mittens so her fingers will start exploring n open instead of clenching...
Botties i feel is alright, like wearing socks etc... But when remove mittens, make sure u regularly cut bb nails, and the scratches on faces will heal real fast if bb do scratch..
Swaddling is good if bb can slp comfortably, and for longer period. I feel tat bb also wont jolt from slp easily. My bb stopped swaddling at 1.5wks, had hard time coaxing him to sleep! I wld rather b be swaddled so his arms n legs wont keep moving too much during zzz too.

Haha isit the blue capped full cream meiji milk? Its my favourite-st milk too! I love everything diary and been drinking meiji since pregnancy days. Till now i still drink cereal everyday (breakfast and teabreak) and on and off longan tea too. I think staying hydrated helps. I dont eat alot cos of small appetite. Yield averaging around 160-300ml per session...
Your hubby got say anything about ur 'asymmetrical' boobs? Hehe
