My boy always latch but cannot last.. but when I pump, I can pump around 90-100. So dont know leh... looks like ss is decreasing liao... giving more FF to him slowly. Haiz.. want to BF also no use.
xinying, very good that your baby doesnt like pacifier. How you train?
leeyiling, i also think it is too long already, he is already treating you like pacifier I think. And he also wants comfort in your arms. Not a good practice although a lot of people say to BF as long as he latches. But also depends on whether your breasts become tender, if it does, then he is drinking milk.
on diapers, I wanted to get petpet cos cheap, but thinking of all the problems that you guys are having, I think i'd give Nepia a try though it is more ex. Huggies is super small cut, and Drypers sticker is not good.. I like the velcro ones like Fitti. My boy develop rashes when using nappies and bum got so red. Now he only wear underwear without anything to air his buttocks.
on weight, i only gained 2 kg fats during pregnancy and I also see the bulge and the mark of honour is pretty significant as well. Wondering any way to really cut those scars down?
on nipples, I also have short nipples, try to squeeze the nipples and express a bit of milk before latching then baby might latch better cos got milk to start with.
on motherhood, I am so tired but I think it will be more fun as he begins to understand what you say and responds as you talk to him. Really like to BF, but since not much SS, i think it would be better for him to have a good feed rather than to force him on BM.
All the best to all mummies!
