Hi Hong,
Ya, my gal's pimples will dry up after a few days, but new ones will keep coming out & it seems to be spreading to her forehead now...Anything we can do to prevent the pimples? Is it because of allergy or in contact with dirty stuff?

White Lady, yr baby has it since birth? If so then I guess it's ok.. If u want u can apply baby oil or moisturiser for BB no harm.. can treat it like a massage for ur baby. =)
YB, try to avoid kissing baby, i realise when i stop ppl from smelling and/or kissing BB, his complexion sort of improves.

Lucida, glad tt u sound better today.
Had a horrible night ytd. Quarrelled with hubby. First time in our whole r/s he scold me so many times f***. Haha. Shld b even more than total accumulated previously cos he was not e kind tt wld scol vulgar words one. Think i aggitated him too much.
Anyway, went to see lc at tmc ytd. Margaret helped to do 'treatment' first, then Mrs Wong came to check b4 I left. Spent like..2hrs there. Margaret helped massage my breasts cos there were lumps in both breasts. Left side was bad cos there was a huge lump, they suspected that when I stopped bfg the twins, I didnt clear the lumps, so plus nw it bcame bigger n bigger. N even part of my aerola had e lump. Then she helped massage till i nearly died. Super painful. Then they said it wld prob take abt a mth to clear with constant massage..So i think it prob wont clear. Wahahah. I will massage la, definitely, but i think it wont be the same as how they massage. They really use alot alot of energy. But i think ytd was a good experience la. Learnt quite alot of stuff. And used their Avent IQ Uno dual electric pump to pump. Wah, it's good man. But it's 800bucks. So well, sad case. Good but not affordable. If this is my first child and i intend to bf for 1 yr and have 3 children then mabbe i'll invest. But well, this is my 3rd and prob last child im going to have.

Ya, quarrelled with him. Think cos both of us were very tired. Cos ytd night at 4am baby still refused to slp. Then actually at abt 2am she was going to fall aslp liao, but hubby on-ed the light to do his work. Then she started being abit cranky (so i sort of blamed it on him). Then at 4am I went to heat up milk. Then when I came back I sort of 'show attd'. Put the milk bottle on the table loudly kinda thing. Then he told me that if i was unhappy cos he was tired and didnt help, then i would be unhappy forever. Then I told him that he shouldnt keep thinking tt he's the most tired person in the entire world. Then he told me he's tired working. At least when i feed baby i can close my eyes. He cant when he's working. Then I said,'Does it mean that when I go back to work then u'll start to help out?' Then he said,'How can like tt compare?' (which is totally crap and contradicts wat he said earlier on). Then I said,'Oh, so it means tt even when I go back to work you still won't help out la?' Then he kept scolding his 'f***'. Think he was very tired ytd la. Then i think when ppl quarrel with me normally will be quite pek chek one. Cos i think ive got this disgusting part of my character that like.. when im angry, I wont say out. But i'll show attd. And when other party finds out, I wont be those very direct one. And I wont shout. I'm those kind tt will be super sarcastic and calm. Haha. (I hate this kinda ppl)
Anyway, my MIL is also like your husband, as in, she keeps telling my kids 'Later papa come home and beat you.. Later papa dont bring you go gai gai, blar blar blar.' Then I think my husband's so innocent. Haha.

Hi Yenny, Felt better today. Thks for the encouragement. My MIL and mum came to help (mum cook in morning and MIL noon). Hubby today MC so can help look aft baby.
Hi brambles, I total breastfeed. sometimes direct latch, sometimes bottle. The main problem I face when directr latch is baby dozing off
and due to improper posture, my back and shoulder ache..
On bottle feed is also baby dozing off. It can take more than an hour to feed him. However, I think this is due to the bottle I was using (Avent). Baby took very long to suckle. Yesterday night I tired pigeon bottle (free sample) and baby can finish milk within 20 minutes - before he can doze off! Tonight will try the NUK teat TMC give and see whether baby like that better.

morning gals.
actually last time my boy also dun sleep at nite one. then daytime sleeps until shiok shiok.
so i slowly adjust his timing.
wat i did was:
1) at evening time, to keep him awake - will play with him, "sponge" bath, let his daddy carry (becos he just came back from work mah) etc. since diff pple play with him, he wont get so fussy so soon. so usually can last for 2-3hrs.
then now, at 3mths old, he will be awake from 5-6pm to 9-10pm. force him also wont sleep!!
(one bad thing is it clash with our dinner time. so usu cannot eat dinner in peace!)
2) at nite - if he wakes up in the wee hrs, i will usu cluster feed him. once feed, he will continue to sleep. during confinement, i co-sleep with him. so he got the habit of feed liao, sleep. i dun even get up from the bed. so no habit of rocking him to sleep by walking ard.
so since he got ample sleep at nite, daytime, he naturally wont sleep so much. imagine if u nap until 9pm, of cos u also wont sleep until 1am lah.
of cos, slowly adjust. maybe one day push back 1hr etc. cannot see immediate effect one.
so now my boy usu will stay awake from 8am-11am (so this is morning bathing time). then nap till ard 3-4pm - feed then nap to ard 6pm. then stay awake. so i will give him his evening bath, daddy come home play with him, he play by himself with playgym/cot mobile n we hv our dinner. then ard 9-10pm, feed n go to sleep. then at nite, 3-5hrs feed once.

Hi mummies
Sometimes i wonder what is keeping me sane from all these. Probably the thot of going back to work soon. Can only tell myself to hang on there. Dun know why, i dun seem to see my son grow very much leh, or prob becos i see him everyday so no diff to me.
MTDT
Sometimes it's quite diff to control their sleeping. Ur baby is 3 months old liao? 3 months old babies tend to hav a better sleeping pattern.

my son is 2mths, 1week n 1 day old. (DOB- 15Jun)
of cos, every bb has different character, so might not work for everyone.
my boy sleeps with us too. but in his own cot bed.
dsii - both boys sleep in ur room? got space huh?

to mummies who latch on, recently i finally able to latch my bb on.. but i realise 1 feed must latch a few times, is it? is like he latch on 1 side for 15 mins.. then fall asleep, ofter him 2nd one, he dun want.. then after half an hr or so, he'll cry for milk again! is this how it shld be when we latch on? more tiring then bottle feeding i realise..
misaryeo - dun let bb sleeps afer 1 side.
wake him up by touching him, tickle him, change his diaper etc.
for my boy, only when he sucks both side, ave 30mins total for 2 sides, then will he be satisfy n will demand for feed 3hrs later.
if he only sucks one side, sure demand for feed within 1-2hrs later.
