Some mums dun mind the "age" of the milk coz to them, its considered superior than FM, while some hv no choice & can only give BM to their kids of allergies. the contact of the mummy tt i passed to pups belongs to the latter category in which she has no choice coz her kids r allergic to other milk. though her kids r alrdy a few yrs old, she dun mind giving them FBM of any age, so she even willingly came to collect fr my sis whom's milk is barely a mth old.
She had alrdy stopped bfg long time ago but she makes the effort to buy milk bag in replacement 4 the ones tt she collected, so i feel it depends on whether the mother wants to make an effort anot. somemore the milk bags used r not cheap ones, each costing abt $0.50. I feel its fair to state tt we wan new milk bags upfront in exchg.

Oh if pd advises against introducing new food for the time being, then best to lie low.
Wah u and Wendy scaring me... nvr lose weight for 2nd child despite oso tbfg all the way....???? Scully i kena all the weight gain later since i am not really piling on much at this stage! I rem at one stage when i was bfg (when R was ~3 or 4 mths old), i was at my lightest weight in YEARS!!! it was 5 kg lesser than my pre-preg weight! but tt time i was scared to lose so much weight coz i am eating so much a day and still losing weight. Scary.

No prob.
if ur wkg env is not cfg friendly, then its really tough. I am oso wondering how my bfg career will b like when i get back to work coz i am required to b out field for half a day. that means i gotta find a plc to pump discreetly and if i end up using electric pump, wun i hv to lug the heavy parts ard and hvg to find a pwer point? headache... dun wan to think abt it yet. but I will def wanna bf longer this time round, esp i dun intend to hv #3 liao. somemore its a daughter, so dun hv to feel awkward even when she nurse at 2, 3 yrs old. i cant imagine how it wld b if i am still nursing R now? he wld prob ask a lot of qns!!!
My sis oso kena blocked ducts many times during her confinement and keep hvg fever. think her son is sleepy most times and only nurse every 4 hrs or so. sleeps like a log & its hard to wake him up, thus she kena bad engorgement n hv to resort to expressing for relief. i cross my fingers tt my girl will not b like tt. R was a v frequent nurser and i seldom hv engorgement then.
