the swell and water retention will go away after you give birth, perhaps not immediately, depending on individual

Good to hear that you are back home.
believe my gal will be the same.
the thing i'm scared most is the drip, not epidural, find it's very painful.

It's feed on demand for newborns. dun worry, you will never overfeed your baby. cuz bm is very diluted, and they poo and pee every 1-2 hours too. it's a hard job to breastfeed.
JJmom is correct. you hv to record how many times our bb poo and pee if you really want to know if your baby is having enough. I used to do that.

the coming in of breastmilk depends on individuals. mine came in on 3rd day (c-section)when i had my gal.
Now massage massage massage your breasts as often as you can. and drink alot of liquid the first few days after you gave birth.

i will probably be ordering next week.
common things that mummies order are diaper cream, calendula cream, shampoos/bathing soap, aloe vera gel, toothpaste, avent valves, nursing tea, fenugreek, lanolin nipple cream, bpa free bottles etc.
i'm stocking up some of the above items for myself
if items arrive after i give birth, you mummies may need to self collect from me
