tinklebellx, you are not the only one. My wife have the same issue.. Now my gal appetite is getting bigger, so got to supplement with FM at times.

HBB, i am also starting to train my gal to sit in the pram...making her sleep in pram in the afternoon... so far unsuccessful also... Got to make it quick as she will be "showcased" to the world this sat... stress :P

anyone of the mummies try fenugreek seed?? Does it help??

we tried both.... supply of milk still not what we expected. Understand that BB's demand will determine supply of milk. So am wondering if she is not demanding more..just a guess. Got a friend who has 3 kids tell me that supply of milk increase when u have more kids... true or false. Cos this...

I had the same dilemma too. To pump or not to pump to increase milk flow? My gal now coming to 3 weeks and she's been feeding a lot more. My wife will now latch her on for a longer period (approx 40min) and if she do cry after tat, which is possibly not enough milk, we will supplement with...

Is it advisable to give your new born baby some simple waketimes after feed everyday, say in the morning for around 15-30min? Or they should go back to sleep right after feed for the 1st one month? Do share your experience

Thanks lamagier. This info has been very helpful

Just a question, for a 2 week old baby gal, how much milk she needs per feed? 40ml? or 60ml? My gal seems to be satisfied with just 40ml. Is that common? Her interval between feeds are quite normal, every 2.5-3 hrs interval.

Oh is that true? 1 mark is 30ml? I got to go back and measure. Hopefully she has enough

I'm not too sure if my gal is enough... What i gather is that she is having 6-8 wet diapers everyday and 2-4 poo a day. I reckon she is feeding enough. Is that correct?

Hi Mummies, I heard somewhere (forgotten where i heard it) that the amount of breast milk from the mummy's breast is much more than pumping it directly from electrical/manual pump. Is this true?? My gal is 15 days old. Yesterday night we decide to introduce formula in one of her meals and...

Growth spurt!?? that's really fast.. my understanding is that growth spurt only occurs after the 5th week. (may be wrong though)

Oh thats e same as mine..also 2 weeks old. She is born on 15 Jul

doing confinement DIY is really tough esp for #1. I had a confinement lady at home and must say that it helps a lot esp for greenhorns like me who know nuts abt parenting

mashy, how old is your gal?

Thanks for all the advice folks. I do hope its colic..at least i know where to get the help (rid wind). Shall try out tonight and see if it works. So its true that colic usually happens in the evening?

Ok thanks. I shall go and source for it. Got to monitor today again and see if she cries again tonight.

Hi Han Bao Bao, Rid wind = Ruyi Oil?? the one that is used to rub on her tummy one? or its colic drops?

Do you think i should bring her to a PD to ensure it is colicky? Or is there anyway to find out?

Thanks SUNSWEET, mashy, Han Bao Bao I don't think she is colicky cos she will give out a long burp when i burp her and she will look so "satisfied" after the feed. We did toy along the idea of pacifier but decided against it lest it becomes her sleep props which is not a very good habit...
