Hi Mummies,
Long time since I posted.
Had been busy adjusting to my gal's schedule etc esp after my CL left last week. Did come in once in a while to check up the posting here.
So far so good for my gal. My gal is 5.08kg and 56cm at the 1st mth check up. PD said very good weight gain.

Congrats!
For episiotomy, I had it with my #1, my pain only went away around 5 to 6 days.
Mint,
Regarding pouch and sling. I prefer pouch. I bought one from Pupsik and my gal loves being in it. I find it easier to handle than sling as I just don't know how to use the ring on the sling ler. But my friend told me it is just a matter of practice.
Babe99,
I do warm up EBM in advance if I can. Sometimes she wake up way in advance then no choice. Because I realise it is very hard to feed her when she is super hungry. She will fuss and whine as she drink. If I prepared in advance and fed her immediately when she need it, it is much easier to feed her and she is satisfied. She is on 3 hourly feed. I prepared 15 to 20 mins in advance. But sometimes, she needs her feed 2.5 or even 2 hours, then no choice.
Precious_08,
Some babies do sleep better in sarong. But if they get used to sleep in sarong, they might have problem sleeping when u bring them outside or other places because they need sarong. That is why if I can, I prefer not to use it. I used for my #1 'cos she got colic. We can't deal with her endless crying. We stopped using when she was 4 mths old as by then she no more having colic.
Re : Sleeping on tummy
I do let my gal sleep on tummy if she can't get to sleep on her back. She can sleep well on tummy, around 3 to 4 hours.
