Been a tiring nite last nite. Baby woke up almost every hour. and sometimes twice/trice in an hour. Either want milk, or diaper change or spit out milk....
Almost each hour, he wants milk. I latch him one side and he will doze off.... after a while, wake up cry for milk again. Think tonight will give him FM during nite time. then I pump out BM. Argh! Sianz... At least he can drink full full and sleep for longer interval.
Just want to let out my frustrations.

Try not to let bb sleep on her stomach till thy grow older, its kinda dangerous. For better sleep, maybe can try swaddle them up so that thy feel secured.
Veniz
Me too not PC saavy.. only looking for gd buy then i am... keke... Think the nursing tea shld be gd just like English tea. Can drink & eat cookie just like having hi-tea.

Hi piyo, if I feed FM, I make 90ml-100ml for him. But I latch on so don noe how much he drinks fm the breasts.
Jenny, u lucky lor! Got MIL to take turn look after for u. Btw, how old is ur bb? As for me, I'm like super busy n tired. After a tiring nite, morning wake up feed him cos he cries for milk. Then I quickly eat my bf then go bath bb liao. Then rest of day, feed him, change his diaper n tend to him whenever he cry. Tiring... maybe that's why not enuf rest. BM supply may reduce.
Btw, what tea r u all ordering?
So far, I'm taking fenugreek 2pills twice a day to see if my BM supply will increase.
Tonight, I will try give bb FM while express BM out. Then I will see if my supply got increase since taking fenugreek. Last time when I express, it ranges from50ml to 80ml... mostly 60ml.
Shycloud, I got use medela mini electric before. I find it not very good in emptying the breasts. Just sharing my experience. Then I'm using Avent manual ISIS pump if I express now.

<font color="aa00aa">hi gers,
just to share...
i used medala duel electric pumps since delivery till couple of weeks back, didnt realised tat breasts r not really emptied out, hence constant engorge feeling but i also didnt realise.
however, due to wk necessity, my hb bought me a off-e-rack pigeon single pump (which is simple, light-wtg & not as expensive as medale) which i bring to wk daily & surprisingly my breasts r always emptied. think partially tat's y i can tahan for 6-hrs stretch or more. each pump (from both sides) when i emptied them thrice daily will yield me abt 200ml...
the amt of EBM derive is not lots, max is 600ml daily, slightly more on wkends cos i ve the luxury to pump ad-hoc at hm, but i m satisfy as of now...</font>

Hi Leng Leng, thanks for the tips on the fenugreek! Will try it out. When my hb went to buy this, the GNC pple say take 2pills twice a day so I don dare to anyhow take too much then.
Piyo, the interval is around 3hrs to express that amt. how abt u? U feeding bb EBM?
Crystal, so each time u can get 200ml when u pump using the Pigeon one?

mylittleprince,
Its the nursing tea tat can help increase or maintain BM. I tik taste just like lipton/earlgrey type. Since we also need more water for the BM so why not try..
lengleng
YES! JIA YOU! JIA NAI! kekeke..
shycloud
I only hear the Medele gd range is the PIS but no gd for the $$. Next option is the Ameda.
Fennie
U want order the nursing tea also??

hi MLP,
I latch on hourly basis most of the time, at times topping up with EBM. I will express out at 3 hr interval, which at times will be after latching or when bb din ask for milk. After latching, I express about 60 - 130ml depending on how much bb drinks directly from me.

juz back from being a cow...
MLP,
yes, i oni got tat amt when i use the pigeon pump. when i use my medala pump, i oni got max of 100-140ml if i m lucky. so i attribute it to the pumps for the increased amt cos i guess whether we emptied or breasts or not prob make a diff in the amt we pump out. so now, i give up my medala pump oreadi, stick to my pigeon pump, a bit of a hassle of having to switch breasts but worth it cos i can last longer w/o engorgement which is reai impt since i m wking...</font>

Need to admit ur baby?
My PD asked me to stop the flu medi drop "iladin" (something like that) and just let her auto recover.
*pengz*
If u bring to hospital, need to be warded in for the condition? Better check carefully first.
My baby was previously warded in to KKH for reflux and under observation for 3 days. Which I felt was totally unnecessarily.

samsoon,
think should be ok to order from the faster one ba.
tan leng leng,
I ordered fenugreek from drugstore on 7th july, just received email from vpost to pay shipping charges last night, 15th July, not sure when the items will arrive at my address, think its quite fast, not sure other company take how long
mlp,
according to jenny, fenugreek cost abt $23/bottle of 200capsules, so it is definitely cheaper than GNC,if we are ordering from vitacost or vitaglo for the nursing tea, you can order the fenugreek as well, since samsoon said fenugreek also available there

Hi babycupid
Did PD says nebuliser is a must? If not, maybe can try to let him be on cough syrup first? So young better try to reduce medication.... Is he coughing badly? Try putting vicks on his feet then wear socks... It warms up the body. Or you might wish to seek TCM, they have some tui-na thingy for babies...
hi star,
It is not recommended that babies sleep on their stomachs. Higher risks of SIDS. But for short while ok lah, I rest mine on my chest after milk.. he also likes it.
Mummies
Anyone with babies always having milk come out from the nose? Mine does on and off and today was more frequent, abt 3x liao. We always burp him after milk and elevate him for at least half hour... Hmmm....
