pildough.. I think no need to bring cooler bag lah.. I heard first few days won hv alot of milk.. even hv, yr bb need it too... else too many things to bring liao leh...
Pildough... milk bag is more convenience in storage... while btls can be re-use...
If yr friedge got alot of fish and food, maybe it's good to get a plastic tupperware to store yr milk inside then put in freezer...

Not sure if the milk bags fit the pump, but I plan to pump using the medela bottles, then transfer to the bags for freezing. For normal regrigeration, I have alot of hand-me-down bottles from my SIL (with caps) that fits the pump.

How much was the blue egg milk bag that u got in your last spree?
Had just confirmed with Jennifer Tan that she has stock for the blue egg milk bag at $6.
http://www.freewebs.com/mybreastmilkstoragebags/.
Is it cheaper than the spree?

Calendula is good to soothe and heal eczema, combat dermatitis and other skin conditions. Is of french lavendar scent. I used it on my boy cos he had eczema. It helps will eczema get appear but will need PD medication if it get worse.

bigflamingo,
i loved that phrase! Borat rocks.
hahahahahahahahahahah
she whose vagine hangs like sleeve on wizard.
confinement:
I'm so envious of mommies on confinement now, friend told me during confinement, must go out with hubby and friends more because got confinement lady to look after bb. When confinement lady leaves then it's panda eyes and boo hoo hoo time.
milkbags:
wondering if i should get some or wait and see milk supply first. whats the storage life for freezed milk and fridged milk, will the nutrients be gone?
desitin creamy:
it's a barrier cream right? i'm intending on putting bb in disposables after CL leaves so how much does it retail for? I heard that they have them at TMC pharmacy..
where's mousebb ah, she's awfully quiet

Yes, desitin is a barrier cream. There are many brands in the market but desitin works wonder. My boy nappy rash recover overnight. You can get them in most Singapore pharmacy. But they are selling 2 oz for the price of 4 oz when u get them from drugstore (the oversea spree).

<font face="tahoma"> Ruffles,
For playtex, they dont have the ziplock function. Hence we need to use our own clips.
Previously when I was using Avent liners, the same thing too. Hence I bought a big bag of Ikea clips, very secure... dont worry
Forest,
those with ziplock function more exp mah... it's disposable hence use and throw hence must save abit.

When you give your baby EBM, do you give them the fresh ones of the frozen ones or the fridged ones first? Was thinking of giving the freshest ones, but worried that the frozen/ fridged ones will spoil down the road... how to coordinate huh?

how does one unfreeze frozen breastmilk?
like what we do with frozen food, put bottle or bag in hot water until it defreezes then how to warm up?
will frozen breastmilk lose its nutrients then like what whitepaper say, if fridged bm is fresher but cannot keep as long, use fridged ones first then frozen save for a rainy day?

hmmmmmm ok, thanks, Tweety
whitepaper,
you should be giving the earliest frozen ones, since they do have storage life.. think best is within 3 months.. but if u use a deep freezer, u can actually store it up to 6months..
pildough,
to defeeze frozen milk... do transfer the frozen milk bags from the freezer to the fridge compartments the night before use... to let it thaw.. when you want to heat it.. u can:
1) either pour into the bottle and use a bottle warmer
or
2) put the milk bag into a container of hot water to warm it up...
maybe other experienced mummies have better advise? since i learnt the above thru the workshops n reading materials i have..

<font color="ff6000">I also think to give the freshest possible bah.
If really those frozen 1 turn bad also bobian loh but at least u know u have ample supply & bb is getting the best
Better to give the best than to save on this? Anyway Mrs Wong said if frozen EBM turn bad then use as foot spa loh so it's not wasted too mah
