Hi Mummies
krissie
If I recall correctly I direct latched on for almost the first six weeks, in order to build up ss. At nite I let my boy take 1 fm but I still expressed at 11pm when he was drinking the fm. Reason being I was really too tired out and he drank v often (stimes can be within 1 hour!). Of course when he woke up in the nites I direct fed him... v xin ku but worth it lah. Apparently bb's suckling is more efficient in increasing the amt of bm.
If u intend to total b/f, do ask for your bb once u are cleaned and back into your ward, put bb to your boobs to let him start to suckle.
Also take note that on third day u might suffer from engorgement, so try to massage with warm towel and if boobs too engorged, try to express out the bm.

I also never feel any movement but from the scan, can see they are both active lah...
PIS means pump-in-style... the one I used was dual electric pumps. V efficient for use in office but expensive, I borrowed from gf. I think the version they sell now is the haversack type. Might not be worth to buy it.

U having a gal or boi this time?
Yah v thankful that my boi feeds v well. For me no point pumping cos he drank v frequently that time, demand feeding, whenever he was hungry I just put him to the boob. He was also v good in that he can suckle each boob for 15 mins each, and then was done. One thing that spurred me on to b/feed otherwise would have given up that time!
