fiona: Pampers last for the whole night??? i don't think my boy will accept that cos it's very heavy in the front and it's sitting on his bird bird...i've had him experiencing discomfort and cried big time...the moment i opened the "3kg" soiled pampers, he stopped crying liao...

hi everyone, i have jus given birth on the 2nd of november, my edd was suppose to be on the 28th of oct. anyway, after the birth of my girl, i really realise that being a mom is the hardest job in the whole world. i really need advice on breastfeeding and i hope mummies here can help me. from the lactation consultant in tmc, the correct way of breastfeeding is to let my girl suckle on the right/left breast for at least 15mins and then the left/right breast for at least 15 mins, then pump the remaning milk out. but my girl only wants to suckle for 10 mins at most on one breast, that left me no time to proceed to another breast. no matter how i tried to wake her up or feed her, she refuse and will kind of like choke on the milk by coughing. this makes me really dissapointed on breastfeeding her and thoughts of stopping breastfeeding kept coming through my mind. also, i do not wish to feed my girl on expressed breastmilk but what should i do with the expressed breastmilk if i were to pump out cos of engorgement? throwing it away is kind of wasteful. i hope experience mummies here can giv me valuable advice. pls email ur advice to my email add, [email protected] as it is easier for me to check my email. thanks a million!
PM: there is no diff from drinking from ur breast n drinking from bottle.
mine girl drinks EBM from the bottle and she latches on when i am trying to heat the EBM up. dun give up on breastfeeding, we are all once like u before.
its a matter of time before bb gets use to it... patience ok!
Jia You

but i am concern about the expressed breast milk in the fridge, the nurses told me at most it can be kept for 2 hours. but my little girl feeding time is kind of irregular, sometimes is 2 hours interval, sometimes its 3 hours. if i pump out the milk and keep it in the frige, not freezer, how long u mummies keep in the fridge? and can i warm up the expressed breastmilk using hotwater? i have another question, my girl needs to go for her jab on the 6th of dec, is it cheaper if she receives the jabs at polyclinic? how do i go about doing it? jus bring her to the polyclinic on the 6th of dec with her health booklet will do? or mus i pre-register her?

Dear all Oct mums, I'm new to this thread. Hope it's ok if I join. My EDD was supposed to be 28 Oct and I have been reading your postings. Really envious that there is a support group ongoing. Anyway, I delivered on 1 Nov (via c-sec) as baby was past due but wasn't engaged. I still hope to join the Oct thread since I was reading it instead of the Nov one.
Precious moments: I have problems breastfeeding too, but am trying real hard to perservere. Don't give up on what's best for your baby. I know it's tough-I'm also facing it, but tell myself not to be too stressed up, otherwise milk production really dwindles.

buffet? not thinking of losing weight after delivery?hahaha...btw, if u r gng alone and not gng, how do u carry ur bb pram?
I go out alone with bb sometimes and I dun drive as hb using car. I usually carry bb in one arm and my bag in the other arm, find it quite troublesome.

preciousmooments: i keep my ebm in the fridge for max of 3 days. so far do not have extra ebm for storage in freezer but i read tat it can be kept in the freezer for up to 2 months.
u can warm up the eb, by soaking the bottle of ebm in hot water.
i bring my gal to polyclinic for her jab cos it is cheaper as compared to my paed. Just call up the polyclinic to make apptm then bring along ur bb BC and health booklet to the polyclinic on the day of the apptm.
adel: onz lah!! then i will eat all these...safe even for bfeeding hor??
Clarissemum: u dun stress..i dun have extra bm at all. Just tat my mil looking after my gal at nite and she feeds my gal with FM. So every morning, i will pump out and keep in the fridge if it is not time for my gal to feed yet. tat is why i have bm to store in the fridge. If i bf her during the nite, i will not have any extra bm at all to bf. me thinkg of taking fenugreek to boost my milk supply so tat i can have ebm then can go out shopping or work (after my maternity leave) with ease.

sneaky: http://www.breastfeeding.com/all_about/all_about_fenugreek.html
Generally, i think it is quite safe to consume fenugreek as long as dun consume too much. in fact, i bought fenugreek liao but am still prolonging taking it hoping my bm supply will increase.my fren told me the supply will generally increase during 6 to 8 weeks. now me in 4 wks...thinking of waiting till 6 wks then decide if need to eat anot.

can try the ameda pump at breast feeding support group to see and feel the effect b4 u decide to buy. was using medela dual but bought ameda, more gentle on nipples and can get more milk somehow. the motor also not as noisy.
SSL,
i bought the tollyjoy warmer but used once and put it aside coz milk was too hot when the indicator light changes to green. Still doing the conventional method now. faster too. i also let bb latch on like clarisse mum so bb remember how to latch on, and appease her b4 ebm warms up.

Tao_baby: i gained a total of 20kg for my pregnancy and now at the end of my confinement i lost a total of 10kg. Still got another 10kg to lose. Of course very low morale. sometimes when i looked at my figure, really feel like crying!!
i went for C-section, so i was advised not to exercise for at least 3 months...so dun think i will exercise for the time being. Me dun intend to take slimming pill cos i bfeeding my gal, not good to take pills if you are bfeeding.
Intend to take note of diet from tomorrow onwards (since confinement ended liao and i took a lot of tonics during my confinement) and together with bfeeding, hope will be able to go back to my pre-pregnancy weight before i go back to work.

Hi All,
Just finsihed reading all the postings finally as had been busy taking care of my bb this week as my mum needs to go back home..So all have to qing li qing wei.
Puea,
I may want to go to the PD [the one beside Lot One] for the injection.
I have checked their rates and find that the polyclinic is more expensive [dun know the polyclinic nurse got quote me wrongly or not].
Below is their charges [the one beside Lot One]:
Hep B - $55 + 5% GST
5 in 1 - $105 + 5% GST
6 in 1 - $140 + 5% GST
Polyclinic charges for 5 in 1 is $295. Hep B is $10. They do not have 6 in 1. Anybody who intend bring their baby to Polyclinic injection can advise me whether the charges that I have written is correct?
Ling,
I managed to post the tel no. of the clinic as it was in bold and red. Only finished readuing today, so I dun think u need the opening hours as you have went to see the PD liao, right... So how is Clarisse?
I also want to join u all for the gathering but my confinement only end ard end nov...sob sob...Kuririn, I also same same as u...
