Re: thawing frozen EBM
mummies, i notice when i feed my girl frozen EBM, there's like small bits of solids that dun dissolve. a bit like when giving FM like that, but not as bad. but when giving chilled EBM then like all poerfectly dissolved, no such little pieces of solids.
do you ladies find the same thing? but my girl never reject the frozen EBM and it's not gone bad as well. makes me hesitate giving frozen EBM leh.

chewy, me feeling better already. Yesterday went to see Dr Lim liao cos previous nite kena urine infection and din sleep the whole nite. Was given 2 kind of antibiotics... one for urine infection and the other was for the pain at lower tummy cos Dr say its inflammation. So hopefully finish the antibiotics will be ok.
Anyone knows if there is any baby fair going? I need to get some NUK teats and bottle cos my gal prefer that to Avent. Avent bottle she doesnt want at all.
Maybe today will try Avent again as last resort and if she still rejects then tmr will hv to go buy NUK liao. So sad wor cos i bought many Avent bottles.

Sim & Esther_mummy - Ergo carrier:
My friends are using Ergo carriers, not very warm for the BB, and one thing good is that the weight is mainly on the hip. U may want to check out the online store for offer - http://mummysmilk.com/
I also bought one from there.
Simp - U are having block duct and having a fever? Is your breast red? Or warm on touch? If yes, u may be having milk duct infection. Can still BF but need to go to doc to take antibiotics and call your lactation consultant for more info.
Re : thawing frozen EBM
Lynn - the milk is not throughly thaw, is it? The lump may be fats which are not thaw yet. Leave the frozen EBM in the fridge overnight to thaw it for use the next day.
Re : Increasing milk supply
Unripe papaya soup does not work for me. But eating ripe papaya works for me. Haha guess everybody's different. But still can't exceed 400ml :-(

Amy - Have my friend contacted you regarding the freezer?
My massage lady told me yesterday that my internal wound for C-section is swollen. When she touch, can feel the pain on my lower abdomen... She told me that for those with C-section, the internal wound will take about 2 years to fully recover.

Serena,
I may check out by trying the ergo and bjorn carrier when hubby comes back in a week or 2 before i see if i want to get locally or overseas. If i am getting from overseas then i let u know.
Veronica,
My fever subsided yesterday night and now ok. I really dun know if it is really the heaty food or the blocked ducts. Last night i took bittergourd soup, mineral water and lots of water to flush my system. It helped to bring down the temperature. Also my rt side has been blocked for 3 days and when it is ok after bb help me, my left side blocked. Now still a little blocked on my left. It could be caused by the blocked ducts as well. There was no redness but my body was very hot and my breasts too. Now my breasts on both sides still warm. In fact i farted so smelly a few times yesterday and my urine was really warm.I really dun know what happened. Maybe it is the blocked ducts. I feel uncomfortable but still manageable but u may be rt that it could be milk duct inflammation. Now i get blocked ducts easily esp when i pump. I wonder if any mummies has this as well. Is it that the strength of the suction to hard or i pressed the funnel to tight on my breasts. Now i very scared to pump in the morning as i surely get blocked ducts the next day. This happened now as bb dun really wake up for milk every 2 hours at night. Now she wakes up every 3 to 4 hours and feed on 1 side nia. So in the end the milk collection in 1 side is the results of 6 hours. Any advice? I tried to massage only abt 1 min, sometimes, work sometimes dun. Any mummies can share how u manage to pump and no blocked ducts? I only can rely on my bb to unblock the ducts. Need to take sometimes a few days to d o it.
Puffish,
I am interested to get the milk bags from u as well. Let me know.

Haiz, me oso running out of freezer space. Got to wait till July before my house reno is completed and my own fridge is usable. My MIL's freezer is packed and hubby doesnt think its worthwhile to buy a mini freezer and we dun have space to place it as we are still staying wif my MIL. *headache*

Simp, dun take bittergourd soup as I read in a book, diet for breast feeding mums, it's not too "cooling" for breastfeeding and during the recovery from labour, the stomach is still bit weak to take. You may refer to this site: http://www.kellymom.com/bf/concerns/mom/mastitis.html
Babe, drink more warm water. Try massaging your right hands (palm facing downwards) with ur left hand closed and rub down fr right knuckles to ur wrist. My experienced therapist taught me, pretty useful. & vice versa for other hand. Hope this helps & may u recover soon.

chewy, i ordered 1 box of milkbag from the earlier BP organised by (er... is it Koori?) as i am sharing with Amy... Still waiting for it and meanwhile I still have 2 boxes of 25pcs left. So if you or Simp need it more urgently, pls do get it from Puffish. I can wait and order more... no worries. Let me know ya! At the rate I am storing my EBM, its scary how fast we use the milkbags... LOL!

hi simp
to clear blocked ducts, use hot compress. fill small milk bottle with warm water as hot as u can stand. pump one side at a time, while pumping, press bottle hard against breast. work your way around the breast and under it till all ducts are cleared.
hi burpy babe
can pls share your lobang for mini freezer?

Re: Cold stuff
I still drink cold drinks leh even though I am BF-ing. Why cannot ah? Will it reduce ss?
Re: Soup
I drink all kinds of soup. As long as u consume lots of fluids, should aid in ss of BM.
