Good Morning Gals!
Lact Aid is a system where u hang the bottle on your neck, then attach tubes to the nipple and let the bb suckle. But you're actually feeding FM/BM from bottle. It helps to relactate even for adoptive mothers! My boy's suck has been very weak. He still likes to suckle on my breasts, but it's more for soothing purpose coz my flow is too slow and weak. So this will encourage him to suck harder and stimulate the breasts to produce more. Bought the Medela one (coz i think Singapore only sells this brand) at Mums & Babes. They're having a 15% discount for mother's day.
Going to try using it later.

Yah, she's very nice. She massaged and squeeze my breasts to clear some of the ducts and then, got some sprays.
She also taught me how to massage myself before I pump. It's unlike Mrs Wong who gave me the death sentence. Mrs Wong said I'm hopeless liao and told me to continue pumping until runs dry which will happen probably in May.

If you want to continue breastfeeding, then you should see an LC. It's difficult. I've been through many months of super low ms. But something in me makes me wanna continue breastfeeding, maybe it's the bonding with my bb, maybe it's coz i wanna keep him healthier for as long as I can. Maybe that's why I've persevered for so long despite the difficulties and discouragement.
Anyway, I'm a SAHM, so all the more I feel that I should bf if i can. It's not like I'm working and it's difficult to find time to pump.
