CONGRATS YUNBB!
Wendy
i tried searching for Synflex but it's not listed in the book. Must know the scientific/medication name for it. It's probably not called Synflex per se. Oh u not using the stiff neckline one liao? Personally i got buy the shawl type also, like one hole in the center and wear like poncho one rite? I dunno about Tobey, but Rylee hates being totally covered cos the shawl very big. Now i had to use it as a cover for my baby's stroller. U're right in saying very difficult to meet up. But if u're taking the airport express train, then shud be easier, but since u have bought it, then never mind
If u find it not do-able for Tobey, feel free to call me then.

Wendy, glad you like the Giordano wrap, what colour did you buy? I got the dark grey one, seem to be less exposed. Hee.
Mylife, I can't really BF while walking, think my Bjorn carrier is too small. Maybe those sarong type sling can but I can't seem to master those.
Congrats to Yun BB!
Steph, so fast, just 3 more months, it'll be your turn hor?

thanks, i jus found it online too.
here's also a link i found, apparently, not encouraged to use for lactating mothers:
http://emc.medicines.org.uk/emc/assets/c/html/DisplayDoc.asp?DocumentID=1734#PREGNANCY
Here's the section from the book
NAPROXEN
Lactating Risk is L3
Naproxen is a popular NSAID analgesic. In a study done at a steady state in one mother consuming 375mg twice daily, milk levels ranged from 1.76-2.37mg/L at 4hours. Total naproxen excretion in the infant's urine was only 0.26% of the maternal dose. Altho the amount of naproxen transferred via milk is minimal, one shoud use with caution in nursing mothers becos of its long half-life and its effect on infant cardiovascular system, kidneys and GI tract. However, its short term use postpartum or infrequent or occasional use would not necessarily be incompatible with breastfeeding. One case of prolonged bleeding, hemorrhage, and acute anaemia has been reported in a seven day old infant. The relative infant dose on a weight adjusted maternal daily dose would probably less than 3.3%
Adult Concerns : GI distress, gastric bleeding, hemorrhage
Pediatric concerns : One reported case of prolonged bleeding, hemorrhage and acute anaemia in 7-day old infant
Alternative : Ibuprofen
Lactation Risk Category
L1 Safest - Drugs which has been taken by a large number of BF mothers w/o any observed increase in adverse effects in the infant.
L2 Safer - Drug which have been studied in a limited number of BF women without an increase in adverse effects in infant. And/or, the evidence of a demonstrated risk which is likely to follow use of this meds in a BF women is remote
L3 Moderately Safe - there are no controlled studies in BF women, however, untoward effects to a breastfed infant is possible. or controlled studies show only minimal non threatening adverse effects. Drugs shud be given only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the infant. (new meds that have absolutely no published data are automatically categorized in this category, regardless of how safe they may be)
L4 - Possibly Hazardous - There is positive evidence of risk to a BF infant or to BM production, but the benefits from use in BF mothers may be acceptable despite the risk to the infant (eg if the drug is needed in a life threatening situation or for a serious disease for which safer drugs cannot be used or ineffective)
L5 - Contraindicated - Studies in BF mothers have demonstratd that there is significant and documented risk to the infant based on human experience, or it is a med that has high risk of causing significant damage to an infant. The risk of using the drug in BF women clearly outweighs any possible benefit from BF.

i think diffrnt places hv diffrnt colours? I bought a grey one. actually liked the black, but too "holey"... can see from outside!
mylife
erm, the giordano shawl not v big coz it's not meant to be a nursing cover. For those apron types, i scared Tobey flip open and & hv to struggle with him la. this weekend after washing it i will try it out & hopefully he doesn't fuss. I asked husband abt taking the airport express train... it remains an option coz we hv the FOC airport transfer. Considering travelling with 2 kids and husband has bad back, i think he'd rather opt for the airport transfer...
godsent
those were good days... baby can't move, can't fight with gorgor for toys, just eat & sleep, i had great confinement food, enjoyed my maternity leave. hahahaha

Jess, wendyg, mcfluffy, pixiepixel,
tks
this time, i anyhow eat alot of junk food & fast food unlike 1st pregnancy. I drank alot of cool drinks too...simply can't control or maybe bo chap...very bad mummy la. I've gained 8kg+ liao. Yesterday just went to Jurong Point to buy some bra top like sports bra type to standby for maternity shoots later on cos my chest expanded, from 1st pregnancy is 32B & then up 34B/C & now i need size 36C but sports bra (from john little) go by M or L size & i could fit into XL too!
Oh anyway, if u all happened to drop by west area, go explore Jurong Point cos now expanded with more retail shops, restaurants & very spacious!
Quote from Mar09 thread:
CARTER SALES:
Just incase mummies who don't know where is it. Its actually near SAFRA Tampines, there is a small road beside SAFRA, if walking in will be a distance. Last year I went with my sis taking a taxi from bus interchange as weekend don't have bus service going into that road. It will be better if drive there. Its location quite deep inside the building if I can remember is blue in color right at a corner.

in hosp... i didn't wear bra until i was discharged coz i wore nuring top when discharged, surely hv bra. i delivered via c-section, so only wore the hosp gown, no bra no nothing!!!
During confinement, i only wore bra when i was bfg so that can stuff the breast shells to catch the other leaky boob.
Now, i only wear bra when i'm outside of home.
Since pregnant time, i been wearing nursing bras. More comfy.. no wires to poke me. But means my tops also can't be t-shirt tight lor, but i dun mind la. My $6 and $9.90 mumsy nursing bras already fully depreciated, and i love them so much =))
