mom_yam

the med that your PD gave you is moutilium right? I used that b4 and my mum takes the same medication for her gastronomical problems, it is to aid in faster digestion.. went so hungry whenever I took this pill last time.. stopped taking liao... using fenugreek as a standby now
 
back to the carrier topic, have anyone decided what to get? i'm still stuck with my decission, very tempted to get but i'm so afriad my boy dont want to sit.
 
mom_yam

keke.. i have 2 carriers... 1 domaro and 1 ergo carrier.. shld have let your boy try when you were at my place last sat... my girl is big sized so think that the domaro carrier will not last her long.. so am letting go...
 
babe - dun stress dun stress....stress will cause further dipping. check the cause. could it be a block duct? or u not getting enough rest or fluid? for me, it usually dip when i have a block duct or milk blister.

hunniepot - u take fenugreek daily? i am taking daily but intend not to but fear that MS will dip .
 
Re: BB Carrier
mom yam,
sama sama with me too. my mom bought a cheaper one recently... nto sure what's the outcome yet.= p

Anyway, we still hesitating.. as both of us really like the combi 4-way8systems one.

Re: Sat gathering??
Hmmm.. hunniepot, dun think can make it except for the class. Hb b working at night and so after the flashcard lessons got to rush back home n let him rest. =p
 
Re:Nuk teats
My boy also using Nuk. He started with Nuk latex small. He was drinking very well with tat. Since he is 3mths alrdy, i decided to change all the teats and decided on Nuk silicon Medium. Heard that latex quality has some chemical in it, no gd for bb. Now using silicon Medium, i also realised tat there is always abt 1 oz left, wonder isit the teat too hard and difficult to suckle. Also, i realise that he has lots of wind recently after i changed teats.

des, Rach... any comments? btw.. are you both using silicon medium teats also?

Re: baby carrier
Mom_yam, if you wana try baby bjorn which i find it very gd, u can get the salesgal at Mothercare to help u try on and explain to u. btw... wat is Issac's weight now? Someone mentioned tat baby bjorn carrier can only carry max. up to 10kg?? Can someone varify? is there any carrier can go beyond this?
 
mel

I dont take fenugreek daily... my PD recommended not to take it daily leh.. he said to take it only when ss is low and stop once supply is established.. and my gynae frowned upon taking fenugreek also (cant remember the exact reasons)

Got the bumbo for 68 dollars...
 
Re: NUK teats
Guess u all refering to Nuk teats for the Premium bottles?
Xuanting used M for quite a while already. But she still prefers the standard bottles - NUK Size 2 (6-12 months) one.

Both type of teats, she used only silicon ones.

Most of times finished her milk completely except for occasionally she left with ard 5~10ml of milk.
 
mel,
i got the bumbo at $68 frm the BP

tiffany,
i have both the silicones n latex ones but i've been using only the latex..have not tried silicones..i'll try to punch a bigger hole on the latex n see how..will update 2nite..

hunniepot,
me dun mind potluck..but i attended the session last week liaoz leh..
 
Re: Fenugreek
mel, i have stopped taking. i think it didnt affect my MS, instead, i think MS went up. i can pump abt 200-300ml each time for interval of 4-6hours.. is this volume normal or alot. my boy cant catch up with supply, end up, transferring alot to freezer. wat is your pump volume??
 
<font color="ff6000">re: baby bjorn carrier</font>
the baby bjorn original can carry up to max 10kg. as i mentioned before, it's v strong and sturdy, and comfortable for parents to use but if you're baby is already abt 7kg now, it's quite a snug fit.
 
hihi... sorry for the sudden interruption..

can anyone share whether their bb have difficulty staying in a stroller when going out?? i used MIM sling since my bb few days old. then now cannot go into stroller... will not sleep and will cry when we leave him inside... any remedy??
 
tiffany - how come u have so much milk??!!!so envious.

me can pump abt 140ml every 3 hrs. never try 4-6hours coz i cant take the engorgement.

i also have to freeze coz J sleep thru his 2.30am feed. i used to express otherwise my breasts would be hard as stone when he wakes up 6 hrs later. but nowadays start work liao so try to tahan coz need to sleep more thus aft J wakes up at 4am feed, i express the balance still have abt 140.

rach/hunniepot - tks for the info. Kiddy palace selling at 79.90.....must sneak behind hubby's back to buy...hee hee.

fenugreek
my LC also discourage me fm taking as she say is not scientifically tested as it is a herb and not a medicine. but i have phobia that my MS wont be enough as I am still scarred by my experience during the 1st mth when J is demanding 150 and I am only expressing 80 at max. but now est already so plucking up the courage to drop fenugreek....gulp.
 
Tiffany,

I dont pump very much.. at the most once a day only.. can get up to 150+ ml from each breast when I wake up in the morning.. other than that.. I latch on all the time..

Mel, Im too lazy to express mroe than once a day.. if the breasts get engorged... then let it be hee.. there are times I wake up wetting my bed with milk...
 
preciousbabe and Rach

Hmm.. how about we do it for the next session then? After the BP has been done and we start on the subsequent lessons?
 
Tiffany, wow!!!! so good. my son starts to "complain" that i do not have enough for him and he got when he cant suck anything from me. yrs can do facial alr! heee

Isaac is alr 8kg, will he be too fat for bjorn. Guess i really have to make a trip to mothercare. Hopefully, i can find one that fits him.

Hunniepot, thk we have it the next session what say u gals? we can have mini party for bb.

Cin, how big is yr bb? i use to have the same prob but now he is bigger, he seems to be okay now.
 
mel

Hehe.. not everyday lar.. there are times I get about 120 ml from each side.. but I pump after 1 full night of not pumping thats why...
 
Okies mummies... will be discussing with the instructor on the pricing of the BP tomorrow... hopefully we can get a good price for that

mel,
u are ok mah... 140ml 3hourly. for me, i pump 4-6 hourly, tat y get between 200-300ml.

hunnie,
i can get 150ml on each side early next morning too. last pump abt 12mn and morning pump 6am...

mel, hunnie, mom_yam, i didnt know 200-300ml is alot, thot its normal. look at the size of my breast, cant imagine can store so much.. haha
 
Hunniepot,
i think there is a tradition where the egypt queen bathed using cow/goat milk... =p

So I guess that explains why breastmilk is good for our skins lor. =p
 
bebe..
i eat everything, but i have fish for most of my meals. maybe tat helps.

BF mommies,
does ur bb have bits of poo every time u change diapers? L has 1-2 big poos a day, but he has many small poos on most of his diapers. anyone has this prob too?
 
hi, momyam,

well my baby is 2 and half months now. he started sleeping in cot, then on my chest, and now no choice gotta sleep in sarong le...

sometimes even sling also he dun really like...
 
Hi, mums

Me really deprived of sleep, bb sleep for half hourly and wakes up. Now, even feed at 11pm, he still wakes up at 3am to cry.

Do any1's bb wakes up at nite to feed. And my bb will cry at around 8pm to 10plus, no matter what ways to coax, i still cant get him to cool down? HELPPP....even my mum shake her head

Oh Cheona

Thanks u very much

Hi, Hunniepot

R u organizing another flashcard session? Can i join? And what is BP? I stay in woodlands.
 
Cin...
yup.. L farts alot and loudly. everytime i hear farts, i wonder its hb or bb! the fart sounds like adult fart lei....so loud! so paisei when bring him out...

so... the small poos tat comes out with fart is normal? bcoz of all these small poos, my MIL refrain me fm taking papaya and cooling food.
 
any BF mums give pacifier to yr BB? tot of giving to J to see if it helps him to sleep longer but worry with interfere with BF.

also does any BB sleeps longer than 6 hrs at night? I want to stretch J to sleep longer than 6 hrs but worry he might need his feed.
 
Re:Carrier

mums, in fact, i bought a carrier from combi, personally, i felt that, it really depends on bb, for mine, he like to move alot, thus a carrier is very uncomfortable to him.

And a petite size like me, cant carry for long time, a pram is a better choice

. You will get tired easily. Also, his birdy will get red if carry for too long cos the pressure is there. For my case, it happens, so i decided to forgo the carrier.
 
Jolie, sure no problem

But have to stop at these numbers liao... cos my place might not be able to accommodate so many people...

Izit BP for the flashcard?

And where are you staying? Can PM me? How long is the session? What am i suppose to bring? I really worried, what if the bb wants to sleep or eat? how you mums managed at your place?
 
tiffany,

well, not only does he fart loudly, he poos loudly too! there was once i was feeding him in the bfing room, he poos so loudly i think the pple outside can hear lei..

well, i not sure if its the cooling food that causes it. but my baby got bits of poo everyday, even on times when i myself gets very heaty. does anyone bb has such "poo bits episode" too???

when my bb poo when my MIL around, she will suggest waiting for a bit longer to ensure bb poo cleanly le. u wanna try that? but not too long else get nappy rash.

there was once when i was changing his diapers, he farted and i saw the yellow liquid of his poo at the anus... so i take it that it comes out with the gas since bfing bb poo rather watery.

did u try ur MIL method see if still have?
 
Cin,

so funny..... i also share the same experience. also times when i change him, he had strong fart and his poo shoots and soiled my bed. even my mobilephone's chain got soiled.. had to throw away the chain.

sama sama, MIL also said, wait awhile more see if anymore poos then change. L has lots of wind, at least it does come out.
 


Jolie
Is anybody else helping u out apart from urself?

I was like tat when my gal was ard 2months old. Then my hb got his mom to come over to help in afternoons while I take a quick nap. Weekends I placed her with my mom.

Kind of helped me not going into post natal blues.

Anyway, my PD told us tat when bbs are ready, they will automatically sleep through the night. So far, my gal still eats one time between 12am - 6pm.

Her problem is becoz she doesn't burp sometimes when she's sleeping n thus ve stomach pain later and got to wake up ard 3~4am to carry her and sleep her on my tummy.

How's the little one sleeping pattern? What u mean by half hourly? Throughout the day and night? Does he often cry at that time 8~10pm?

Mel Lim,
I gave XT pacifier. It helps a lot as once I place her on cot and she struggles. I pop the pacificer into her mouth and then she will suck and eventually fall asleep. Quite good, I must say. Then when she sounds asleep, the pacifier drops out... she didn't complain n so didn't put back for her n keep it.
