Looking to buy a cheap Medela Mini Electric Plus. The adaptor wire for the pump I have is not working. One of the pins on the power plug broke. Need a new adaptor and looking to take over a pump just for the adaptor. Or if anyone is willing to sell only the adaptor, perfect.

maddog, have you tried drinking the fish and papaya soup? It works wonders for me. Other things that help me are soya bean milk and milo. Jia You! Don't feel depressed. We all just try our best. If can provide, it's good. If cannot provide, then we look for other alternatives. Most importantly...

Joey & SaraGrace, thanks... that must be it then. SaraGrace, yes, I find that I have to spend more time burping baby and calming her down. The only feed where she doesn't fuss is the night feeds when she is super sleepy and doesn't suck so hard, so the milk flow is quite slow. The problem...

Any mummies experiencing baby fussing during BFing? My baby will fuss, arch her head backwards, and sometimes cry out loud. It started about three days ago.. Sigh.. it has made BFing quite stressful because I have to unlatch her many times before she bites off my nipples and also to comfort her...

Ryan_Leroy, what brand of nipple cream are you using? I used to think they are all the same, but after comparing Pigeon and Avent, I think Avent is more effective.

P1nk1e, I read that you use pacifier too. Do you latch on directly, and if so, do you experience baby fussing alot during feeding? Luckymom, do you recomend Body Silk for flat chested gals like me? :P The original was great for me, fits just nice. The Allure is abit too big Not sure about...

Bdmummy, you are right. When I drink fish and papaya soup, I feel so thirsty the whole day and end up drinking a lot of the red date and longan drink. Another sign is, if I get a headache, it means I’m dehydrated and I’m not drinking enough liquids. My confinement nanny is going back soon…...

Aspialle.. sigh.. I also don't know how to explain. Basically, our helper has been with us for 2+ years. She has proven through time that she is very sensible and reliable. She's very disciplined and systematic and we treat her more like a housekeeper. As such, we've also treated her as part of...

CanopyHaze, here are my details: This is my no. 3, girl, EDD 4 Jan 2013, Emma, gave birth at TMC, doctor is Dr. Adrian Tan, DOB 5 Jan 2013, 3.315KG, Natural, I live in Katong. Aspialle, good question. What does my helper do when both kids go to full day school? Right now, I have a...

p1nk1e, O, didn't realise that Bravado is by Medela. I got mine from AlleMom.sg. There's a discount if you buy 2 or 3 bras. I'm usually a 34A, and I bought the smallest size for the Bravado Original (think it's S) and it fits just nice. Chinlee, yes, I only have 1 helper. Both my kids 6yo...

ChinLee.. o, you also no. 3! Yay! Someone for me to discuss with on "how to cope!". Are you a SAHM? I'm a FTWM. My helper is going back on home leave during March... I think I will go nuts for 2 weeks! :P Yea, I know what you mean about not getting the correct technique. Was just joking with my...

Heya p1nk1e, I get painful letdown as well. It goes away when I use my palms to press onto the breast. Painful letdowns are very normal. The only thing is, can't imagine when I start going out and having letdowns and need to press my breasts in public!!! For me the latching is super painful...

canopyhaze, can you help me update my details too? This is my no. 3, girl, Emma, gave birth at TMC, doctor is Dr. Adrian Tan, DOB 5 Jan 2013, Natural. siewz, I assume can apply slimming cream. The Elancyl one has caffeine, but I've been told if it's cream applied on the body and not taken...

Ryan_Leroy, that was the case for me. I had 5 sessions of massage, the last 2 was slimming. The effect was fantastic. My mum even complimented about how quick the slimming down was for my tummy, but it's been one week, and my tummy is out again (my mum said so too), although not as big as when I...

Heya ladies.. my massage was very effective too, unfortunately, the effects are not permanent. Now, I have started using the Elancyl Stomach Cream... today is day 1, suppose to use for 14 days. Will let you guys know if it's effective.
