Cheesycake,
It's very tough to do everything yourself. Take a step at a time. U an call hospital for advice whether u deliver there anot. Have a list of qns on hand and phone them. I did phone my hospital regarding ebm matters

I also like also go crazy one of the nights last week when bb refused to sleep from 10pm to 2am. The moment i put her down, her eyes big big and cry for security suckling. Actually it is becoz i dun have ilk for her, she is feeling hungry and din want to sleep, or she was over stimulated during daytime and too tired to fall alseep. So i was like dun know wat to do. Cried a little, then abt 2am, my mum came to my room and carried bb and helped her to sleep for an hour b4 coing to me to nurse again. The next day, parents bought stuff for me to eat and dun dare to cook ginger, wine stuff for me liao since it stopped my milk so much.
Last nite, same thing, i ate the wrong stuff and no milk, bb crying for milk and nurse her for 1n hour but still no milk. Then finally gave in to fm for the 1st tie last nite. The 1st fm was diluted fed at 11.15p then at 12pm, she cried again, so mum fed her with the original strength of fm. I was so upset that i couldnt bf her last nite and struggled within. Cried to sleep and bb was w mum the whole night. I kept drinking red date longan tea. Then at 4pm, i woke up feeling so full that i pumpedd. Managed to pump 120ml, broke all my record. Must be bb's suckling for an hour that stimulate breasts to supply. Then bb also woke up at 4.35am for feed and i gave her my ebm. she only drank 70ml and threw away 50ml, so sayang. BF is really a mental battle. Think i lost it last nite.
