kite,
I am going for 5-in-1 jab
The package in polyclinic is slightly less than $300. I remember the last of the 5-in-1 jab is at 18 months.
6-in-1 jab supposedly to reduce the chance of fever in babies. But some babies will still get fever. Polyclinic do not offer 6-in-1.
There's 4-in-1 in polyclinic which is free...
missk,
I am using medela mini electric
Wow... 80ml in each pumping session is not bad already since you are also latching your baby.
This morning, my milk increased. You know, I pumped one side got no milk initially, then I massage and pump.. Suddenly, a lot of milk... lol... I can see jets of milk... I was surprised, dunno where the milk comes from... kekeke... Then after that, I still got milk when I latch my baby when he woke up half an hour after pumping...
I was taught by the lactation consultant to just clean the breasts once in the morning. Just water can already. Our areola do emit some anti-bacteria liquid from those "dots" on the areola. I use dry cloth to wipe my breasts after latching and after pumping... I dun wipe the areola and nipple dry unless it's leaking...
Dor,
I am good
I am still breast feeding. Few days ago, I tried to reduce my milk supply and it went down a bit too low and I got worried. Then I pump and pump religiously. Now increased again. How are you doing?
I am comparing 5-in-1 and 6-in-1. 6-in-1 jab includes the HepB jab taken at first month. These two jabs have different vaccination schedule. The latter is more expensive, and only available in PD. The thing is, if go and see PD for the jab, will still have to pay another $60 for consultation. It's a bit too expensive... To me, my baby dun need to see PD since there's nothing wrong with him... Unless he's sick, then will bring him to PD.
kk,
Wah.. your MIL cooked seafood on the day of your discharge ah...
How much does Dr Ong charge for consultation?
okasan,
How did your friends control their breastmilk supply? I either have too much or too little breastmilk supply. If I pump too much, I get too much milk. If I stop pumping, I get insecured cos my engorgement gone and I dunno if baby has had enough...
Are we supposed to pump out the breastmilk?
MTDT,
Jia you...
Just try your best. If baby not full, can supplement... Seems like your baby has got enough to drink since baby is satisfied after every feed.
spicegal,
I realised, if we stop breast feeding and pumping, the breast milk supply will sure decrease...
