Hi gers,
Good morning.
My bb is so cranky this morning.. Haiz, duno wat she wants.
Ellysia,

I oso realised that my BM ss decreasing. I keep worrying that my bb not enuff, so am keeping a close tab on teh soiled diapers.
Felicia,
I oso taking my bfast in front of the comp, hehe.
Re: Breastfeeding helpline

Re: Sterilisation pill
I heard that there is such a thing right? Must start planning liao. I am gg back to work in 1 months' time. Any idea?

Re: One breast more milk
Managed to get somebody on the breastfeeding hotline.
It is right to say that if you want more milk on the breast with lesser ss, latch on more to that breast. On top of that, do try to express btw feeds cos dd = ss. The more you stimulate + express, the more milk your breast will produce (ouch, sounds painful to me).
Babies who are breastfeed directly will reject the breast when they are full but those with jaundice tend to be more sleepy, so must try to wake them up for feeds.
It is not quite possible for one breast to cut ss. However, if lack of stimulation on one side, the milk ss might drop drastically.
The consultants are very friendly. For those with problem, can try calling them. Hehe.

To mummies who are BFing,
my mum had instructed to avoid these food,
cause they may chop our BM.
1. Mai Ya Tang (malt sugar)
2. Gu Chai (Those greens on top of mee siam)
3. San Zha (Those round red sweets)

Good morning ladies,
Din come in for awhile as I had given birth on 5/6/08 and stayed extra days in hospital as baby is jaundiced. M also busy trying to settle baby routine before my gal comes back this friday. (I put her up with my SIL)
My birth story:
4+am: Woke up due to contractions but thinking its braxton hicks, I choose to ignore thinking that it will go away. Also hoping incase its for real, I can tahan till 7am when my HB and gal can wake up.
7+am: HB and my gal woke up. I told HB this time might be real and I want to see doc at his clinic.
Almost 8am: Contractions intensify and told HB think can go A&E and not clinic liao.
8.30am: drop off my gal and maid at SIL place and rushed to hospital. My hb was panicking when he saw the morning jam on the way to hospital. hehehe
9+am: Reached hospital and was wheeled into the delivery suite to monitor. Was already 5 cm dilated. Asked for epidural and was given the injection. After that was a waiting period for me to dilate further.
12pm: Dr came and broke water bag.
1pm: My little boy was born.

<font color="aa00aa">mrswrx, during my #1, i mix cloth diaper with disposable diaper, so not too sure how many pcs to use per day. But my advise dont buy too many NB size as ur baby might outgrown very fast.
I'll use mamy poko for my baby in case she got golden buttocks.
Btw, since u'll be fully using disposable diapers, maybe you want standby a tube of nappy cream as well, just in case.</font>

mrswrx, it depend on ur bb like clean anot. like mine whenever poo or pee will cry for changing diapers. so far I have used up 1pack huggies, 2pack drypers n currently using pampers. so far I find that huggies NB is more suitable as it fit my girl very well. as for drypers, sometimes will leak from the side. pampers is much more bigger which will have grip scare will leak out. so far use for a wk nv leak. but the quality is soft, maybe bb will feel comfortable.

Sharon, the avent teats are big and round. That time I tried to feed my newborn niece milk in avent bottle and teat, I found I cannot handle. But all my cousins swear by avent brand. My gal does fall asleep while feeding, but she will still suckle at a slower pace. I normally like Ellysia will shake breast to make her suckle more otherwise will pull out nipple, try to wake her up then latch on again. Tiring, but so far so good. I suppose once they are full via BF, they will spit out nipple.
Linda, when I bf in aircon room at night, after feeding, my chest area and hands will feel cold in the bones. Have to wear sweater or hug my bolster closely to keep warm. last night held my son's hand then got warm faster.

Me have ored finish up 3 paks of NB pampers. My bb dun like his diapers wet, if slightly wet he will cry liao. Even though he is above 3KG i find those S size diapers a bit big for him and if i use, the poo can sometimes pass through.
Veniz and Linda,
I tink now we are in confinement haven't recover properly yet, me also feel cold easily and sneeze easily.
I use the little dreamers massage oil to relieve wind if i feel i got the wind. It has ginger to help relieve water and wind. Quite effective to relieve water retention, previously my legs are all bloated then i apply once or twice then my legs become pre-pregnancy size.
Yest nite i slept wearing shorts but i got cover with blanket, however ankles feel aching so i tink catch wind ored.. tink tonite i will ask hb to apply the massage oil for me.
MLP,
I didn't take a lot of ginger. in fact i only take small slices v seldom.
If u want to relieve the wind, u can try massage, its better.
My cut is also near anus. No choice but to apply procanol more diligently and sit on float when bf.
Zu En,
I have tried to BF and pump the weaker breast and it seems to be better now.
However cos my bb is light sleeper so nowadays i do not change side, so tat breasts will also feel full before feed.
I dunno is it my bb recently got growth spurge, sudd he seems to want more milk. He like to stay awake for half a day then he will make himself tired and sleep for longer time..so his schedule is a bit disrupted at times.
Sharon,
My bb also will pull my nipple while twisting his head behind like want to tear away. Later i found tat its seems to bec he dun want to suck liao but he dunno how to break away from the nipple.

Veniz,
I didn't wear binder diligently. My tummy is around 2-3 mths preggy size.. or looks like fat only. I tink some are really fats.. so dun tink i can slim down to my previous flat tummy. However a recent tv programme says tat BF can burn the fats inside our body cos the fats are transferred to BM.

mrswrx,
My bb can use drypers, which is one of the cheaper brands in the market (heng ah). Cos she is super small size, one-month liao but still using NB size diapers. If you are looking for better diapers and dun mind the price, mamy poko is good. Hehe. My bb can poo poo btw 2 to 6x in a day. Generally, she usd up 6 to 8 pcs of diapers in a day. I oso never standby alot of diapers, prefer to but when used up. Understand bb can grow out of teh diaper size quickly.
Ellysia,
If you are BFing exclusively, I think no need to care if bb gg thru growth spurt cos the consultant said that bb will stop sucking when they are full. They are unlikely to be overfed as compared to bottle fed bbs. Maybe really gg thru' a growth spurt, so better feed your bb. Hehe. My bb oso like to stretch and twist her head when breastfeeding, super painful. -.o" It is bcos bb dun want to suck liao? Mine will continue to suck after the stretching and twisting leh.
I oso never use the binder wor. I was busy running around initially and it was uncomfortable with the binder around. You only gave bith for about 3 weeks niah, give yourself abit more time lah. I 5+ weeks liao and I still have 5.5kg stuck on me. I think I have to start exercising liao. Hehe.
