hi lh_jyc,
my son also down with bronchiolitis. i hate the medicine feeding episodes. he ever choked when we fed him through the syringe so have to coax him slowly using spoon.
did your PD ask you to give baby diluted milk and lots of water? i noticed my son does not like milk these few days but he still eat his usual quantity of porridge for dinner.

Anna,
Up to the host, Sponge, leh.....no response from her also
I thought the three jabs are to be taken during 7th, 9th and 12th month (if below 1yr old)? How come you so fast finished jabbing already? Not KS la.....although Jarrett don't go to CC or IFC, I still think it's better to jab as I always bring him out or swim in common pools.
Look forward to see you, anastasia

joyce, aiyoh ....with a sick bb quite jialat. I still rem the time when my son was not feeling well. When he puked, it was so worrying. Fortunately, he was cooperative enuff with the nebuliser.
Re: MS
SAme...6 hrs, so little. I can also feel lumps in my two breasts. I do hope to bf for a longer period of time since I am a SAHM. There is no reason not to do so. But the situation is rather discouraging.
Hi little nana, Jonker's WAlk is an alley, I think. Like a pasar malam. The last time I went was last year on a company trip. They sell chicken rice balls, satay lok lok and also chendol. Also got tons of other things lah.

Hi all,
we are all so determined to breastfeed but stumbling now cos of low supply. I'm very troubled by it as well. Dilemma to try supplements and monitor how baby takes it but want to be 'all natural' as well.
My baby has sensitive nose and sensitive airways and very prone to bronchitis as well. Hmmm why are babies so susceptible to bronchitis these days. Been on nebuliser once and now pd put him on Dhatifen and I noticed his last couple flu bouts did not escalate to bronchitis nor as phlegm-y. You may want to check with your pd on your next visit.

hi hi ly_iyc,
hope your boy will be ok soon. be strong ya.
fates,
i don t really have supportive husband when it comes to breast feeding he always say can take formula la no big deal don have to be stress but i always insist.
actually i do have a way to increase MS but as my girl just recover from chicken pox i still cant take. dont know if you gals believe. its actually those HONG JIU that some will take during confinement. my aunt told me that she drank when she had my cousin that she got so much excess milk that she also let her niece drink which is two babies supply. so i actually try and eat HONG ZHA JI mee suan and true enough after i ate one bowl of that in four hours time, my MS WENT UP TO 240ML HIGHEST record. hee so you might want to try but must remember to boil it thoroughly so that there is no more alcohol content or simply go to those FU ZHOU store where they sell HONG ZHA JI mee suan and eat a bowl.

Yes, Jonker's Walk is within walking distance to the Wind Mill. In fact, you can tour around Malacca (excluding outskirts) on foot alone! Get a map from Equatorial Hotel if possible. It was in A4 sheet (Malacca is quite small) and was in colours (don't know if there's any changes).
You can find more info on Malacca here

hei gals, I cannot make it for the gathering too.. as it is, there are two gatherings we have to rush to on that day...sorry.
I have stopped nursing Christian since I started thyroid medication. It was very sad and yes, engorgement was a little incomfortable in the beginning...now, almost gone liao...and 'mammaries' also small liao *waaaaahhh* haha.....
Doctors keep reassuring me with 'breast feed 6 months very good already...after that, not much quality....'...and what WHO's recommendation is 6 months and blah blah blah...while i feel comforted that he has had enough, I really miss the bonding...sigh.

hey ladies,
sorry was real tied up with work! Since so many mummies cannot make it on the 16th, why don't we postpone it to another date then?
joyce,
oh dear hope lil Rayne will recover soon. You must take care too yah..
wow I really admire all the mummies who are still breastfeeding at this stage. You all have come a long way! Fight on! It has been a good 4 months since i've stop breastfeeding..and i still miss the feeling of closeness that I once shared with Ariel. Not that I don't bond with her now, but the feeling is so so different..

<font color="0000ff">Re: To increase MS
My colleague (from China) said this helps to increase her MS:
Boil some water, add 3 - 5 tablespoons of rice wine into hot water (how much you add depends on your taste). After 5 - 10 mins, turn off the fire, add 1 - 2 eggs and stir. Can take this for breakfast everyday.
I didn't try personally as I'm a bit lazy and don't really like rice wine.</font>

hihi everyone
bbloh, its correct and basically it is what your china friend say but i am not sure if white rice wine is ok cos i take the red rice wine.
red rice wine chicken vermicelli is actually a FU ZHOU dish.
All of you can go to the people's park hawker ctr they sell that.
Those who are keen can try and see the effect. hee

Hihi Sponge,
I would love to attend the gathering too but i have a pre-X'mas thingee to attend. Hope to meet all you mummies next time!
So envious when i saw all of u enjoying at last gathering.
Chris, its true that WHO's BF guideline is for 6 months. You have done well!
My naughty boy is slim cos he refuses to drink milk from the bottle
Nvm i have reached the stage whereby I give up in making him drink fr the bottle. He will "have to" drink when i return to work from Monday onwards or else....go hungry, thirsty....hahaha...I know i sound like a bad mummy but i guess he has to learn...somehow.

Hi Yvonne!
Long time not see! What happened?? Is it the incident of your hubby brought Nat back to Penang? Hmm....to be honest, my mum and I thought both you and hubby look alike, got fu qi xiang, maybe have a good talk and things will work out well? Take care and I hope I can join the gathering too.
Fairysnowberry,
Hi! You've been MIA too? Going back to work eh?! Isabel also dun like to drink milk from bottle, and sometimes she'd rather go hungry and thirsty! You know I've not been a high achiever in BF, and now when I'm sick and my supply dip some more, she also just drink 1oz or 2oz every few hours...scary! How to grow??
Matsu
Maybe I need to try the hong zao ji mee sua! Hmm...ask my mum to cook tomorrow!

Hi bbloh,

Hi matsu,
Thanks for your recommendation too. Will keep a lookout for this dish if happens to be at beach rd or people's park
Hi Yvonne,
Take it easy and time heals everything. Be strong for your girl's sake ok? If you need a listening ear, there are lots here. Cheers,

Thanx Isabel&Zach's mum and fates. We will see how our marriage moves on from here. Yeah, the penang trip did play quite a part in the whole episode.
hi isabel&zach,
yeah.... lotsa pple sae we look alike... hehehe... Regards breastfeeding, am still breastfeeding too. Am down with fever, flu and cough, the usual suspects - now. however, do continue to breastfeed, cos it's even more nutritious for the bb. Our body produces more antibodies when we are ill to protect us, and so this goes into the milk, thus the milk will have more immune properties than usual.
It's such a heartpain to waste bm isn't it. Here's what i have started to do. I feed her by bottle the first time. She will drink till she rejects. I will then try again 10 minutes time. The remaining of the milk, i will just mix with just a bit of rice cereals, brown rice or potato, and feed ASAP. This is aside from her 2 proper solid meals. btw, pd advised mi to feed her twice alreadi, cos my gal is also not putting on a lot of weight... she just grows taller... Hope this helps...

yeah, btw to all bf mums out there, anione in the same situation?
I've got quite a bit of on-the-job entertainment, events and parties, etc. So everytime i go for such, I will pump and throw away the milk. so heart-pain. I dun exactly noe, how long later do i have to wait to express milk that can be stored for her feed. I pressume 6 hours is fine. This is what i have been doing. Just worried that it may not be right. Did quite a bit of online research - well, all advice differs. So would like to hear from ladies in the same spot...

I didn't try the recipe as I'm too lazy to prepare the things in the morning.
Just beat the raw eggs into the boiled solution and stir and it will become "egg flower" (dan hua). No need to eat 2 eggs daily. One egg also can (individual preference).
kk,
Wow! Seems that you've enjoyed the trip. Envy ...
Ivy,
Hope BB X recovers soon. Anyway, don't blame the daddy as I'm sure he didn't mean to spread the virus yah?</font>
