hi Scubababe,
Am keen on the moulding kit. Can you pls count me in?
To the rest of the mummies.. bfing is really a tough journey. Hang in there okie?? Has anyone tried frengrek pills yet? i tried and was blessed with good supply today. Am going to try the Mums in Mind Nursing Tea as well cos am sick of drinking the red date tea liao. I also heard that eating the vingear pig trotters can help bring in supply.
Blessed: Am so sorry to hear that ur baby is sick. Hope baby gets well soon k? You don't be too stressed also, it affects ur health. Very soon, the confinement period will be over liao.

Kea,
I also use J&J top-to-toe wash to bathe bb, mum use that to wash bb's hair too.
Think my lochia like discharge for 3 weeks, still have it now, use toilet paper only instead of pap since week 2. Dun know when it will really stopped. Initially i thgt stopped liao then still come on and off.
Koori,
Think bb got blocked nose, breathe very hard. My girl has that last week bt it is ok, as long as they can drink and sleep. It may sound like v xinku but it is ok unless they cry and have difficulty drinking and sleeping.
Steph,
March mummies are taking fengugrek pills, heard it is herbal and natural not like vitamin. My hb plan to buy for me but i ask him to hold on as i want to eat natural produce to stimulate milk production.
Cherish,
I also find using warm water faster than bottle warmer. Bottle warmer can be used if bb is still sleeping and u know est when they r up. Talk abt 10mins to warm up. Warm water like take 5 mins or less.

cherish - my confinement nanny will heat up the EBM.. using hot water. She say the food warmer takes a longer time. that day when she wanted to heat up the EBM, i told her i have the food warmer. but by the time i took out the warmer to figure out how to operate it, she has already heated up the EBM liaoz. keke...
steph - you tried ah? is it from GNC? Had wanted to try taking it. Maybe I can try buying it online from GNC and take it. till now, my supply not alot. today hit max 70ml.
koori - my bb's breathing also very heavy.
cherish - i think you can place the order online. my hubby helped me check it out last night and found out that we can order online. but not sure if there is minimum amount to meet anot.

Hi Step,
Where do u get the frengrek pills? Am interested to try to boost my supply.
Cheesecake:
Dont b too upset. If stress, then ss will drop, just continue to pump more. I was v stressed when my bb hosp, so I just pump for 1 h to express 100 ml for both sides. V tiring but its worth it. Esp when my bb was hosp, i realized though i hate expressin like a cow, i was grateful when my bb recover and that i ve a chance to express milk for him. I also intend to rent PIS advance to up my milk ss. U may wan to consider getting a better pump to empty breasts to step up milk supply.

cheesycake - cheer up.. dun be so upset. look on the brighter side. have to remember to keep up your spirits for the sake of your baby. If your supply dropped, you may want to consider the Fenugreek pills from GNC. If cannot to GNC to buy can also buy online.

cheesycake - i have not started on the fenugreek pills yet. my friend told me not to start so soon. coz the supply takes 4 weeks to stabilise... so she advice me to try to be patient and try to increase supply by increasing demand and try to pump every 3hrs to let the body increase supply. so think i will try that out first. but now me started bf-ing for 6days and supply for each pump for both sides only 50-60ml. abit worrying leh. sigh...
Hi Sherin, sorry I got another friend who is keen to order with me. So have already ordered. Sorry about it.
Simp: The diameter is only 16 cm so I dun think there's enough space for both handprints and footprints. I am not sure how long it takes for the print to take shape. I will try to ask the supplier. I am thinking it could be like the normal clay we play with during art class so maybe an hour plus or so?
Ladies you can update the list below so once it reaches 10 I will place the order.

hee my boy oso born on guan yin dan, march 26
have heard from many that better don bring nb to temple until they are 1. so i will be going on my son's behalf instead.
cheesycake, actually can order tingkat if you wanna cook. i am going to order tingkat after confinement as no one is here to cook for me. actually so long as you eat a balanced meal, the nutrients should still be sufficient.
baby heavy breathing
my boy will have heavy breathing if there is mucus in his nose. then will have to try to get it out if not he will be quite cranky during the feeds.

<font color="0077aa">burpy_babe, u are on total BF or partial?? if partial wat FM u using??</font>
strawberries: you have to standby FM, I tried to get the same brand as what KKH fed my bb on the day of discharge and who knows they sold out at the KKH phamarcy as I guess most people did that. Check with the nursery what brand they use for yr bb as they change brand regularly.
my boy usually sneeze a few times in a day if there is a mucus blocking. so if lucky, the mucus will be quite out. so use cotton bud (those thin kind for babies) to try to get it out. most of the time a small strand of mucus will be out. i juz pull the small strand until the lump is out.
