Over the weekend, is super tiring for me. I brought my #1 (2+ yo) back from his grandparents place. But my #1 is super jealous, he refused to let me carry or go near his baby sister and will stick to me like super glue. He will cry when i'm out of his sight. I wonder how im going to make him...

KWL, my bb is like your little one. Cried for milk 1 hrs plus after latching. My CL will give ebm (if any), if not then will give formula. I'm using medela freestyle, usually I will use to letdown function first ( press 2x if needed) then change to level 3 to pump out the milk. I find that level...

My bb also like to fall asleep while latching. Can only wake up after putting her down on the bed then she will start crying for milk again. Latch her on, she fell asleep again after like 5mins. My PD said put some ruyi oil on your palms & rub. Then cupped your palms over your bb's tummy...

I will accumulate my clothes and machine wash it to avoid any unhappiness in CL and in-laws. It's only been a week and my flow is quite light after I discharged from hospital.

My CL already handwash my baby clothes and I machine wash my clothes with husband's. When my in-laws knows CL didn't wash my clothes, they quite upset about it cos they pan-tang & said my clothes are considered 'dirty' and should be washed separately from husband's. Now I find it hard to ask my...

For those with CL, do you ask her to handwash your clothes or only wash baby clothes?

Congrats snowfern! Rest well! :)

I had elective csect in TMC and stayed in 1 bedded. My bill is approx. $14k (inclusive baby) For my #1, I had e-csect, bill was abt $16k and I stayed in 2 bedded then. Actually, I quite scared to go massage becos of the wound, so most probably I don't intend to go for any post natal massage...

I supplement my bb with enfamil too cos bb always seems hungry after latching for 15 mins on each side. Also i will let bb drink a little bit of water to rinse her mouth after that.

Hi mummies, today is day 4 and i have engorgement. It is painful cos breast is hard & bb can't latch well & can only suckle thru nipples. Now i have sore nipples Does regular pumping & applying hot towel helps to soften the breast for bf?

I delivered mine yesterday via csect. Baby is small at 2.5kg but she is healthy and that's all it matters :) thanks to all mummies who have given valuable advices here & also all the best to mummies who are still waiting to pop!

Redvel & Verluv: that's right, she should inform me about her DIL or medical condition earlier so that I can find some other CL. Plus she already accepted my deposit in March! I engaged this CL for my #1, think she was ok & didn't give me much problem back then. So we decided to use her again...

Speaking about CL, mine called last week to say she can't come on time becos her daughter -in-law just gave birth. She will get someone to cover her for the 1st 2wks. Now she called to say she can't come for the whole month becos of medical condition & her replacement will takeover the whole...

Congrats emk! to minimise the pain at the wound area, you have to keep the binder on. All the best and rest well!

Wow, so many babies popped yesterday! Congrats to all mummies!

Redvel and Gan1972, all the best! wishing both of you a smooth delivery! Just to add, after taking beef, avocados & having lots of small meals in a day, my bb weight has reached 2.9kg as of 36 + 4 wks :). Today is my last work day and I will be starting my maternity leave from next week...

I love almond paste! Having it a few times cos almond is good for cough. Also heard that eating oats will boost milk supply so i'm eating it more frequently now. I think for now, I will just do whatever I can to pump up the bb weight till the next gynae visit.

yes, have been taking prenatal supplements daily after the 1st trimester. I have the impression the fruit juices will taste quite yucky without ice/not cold but i think i'll try to order it without ice next time.

Last 2 weeks, I have been drinking iced avocado juice 2 times per week but stopped recently due to cough. When I went for checkup last friday, bb weight is still low at 2kg (start of 34 wks). My gynae is quite concerned abt it so now i am trying to eat more meals throughout the day and see if...
