ermm... I think the maternity leave is inclusive of PH leh... at least that's what I understood from my company HR, regardless whether you take it now or later in split leave, they will count from the day you deliver, taking into account all PH. Eg. If I go back work now, then next Mon and Tue PH, you only hv 3 days of Mat leave later on to clear, not 5.
Rain - yeah, still pump for 30min if I think can go longer, but hv the after-effects of sore nipples later on. Ok, shall not stress myself and just cut down to 15min. The milk is now coming out faster with high suction. But can be slow if I don't get let-down. Abit tense with the increased suction, esp when they jumped from stimulation mode to expression mode, I can see the pump motor vibrating! very strong power... Going to KP later to buy purelan.
Mousebb - same here. Overslept this morning and missed my 4am pump. Woke up at 7 plus and pump furiously to de-engorge the breasts. Now nipples sore.
Littlebluey - Wah, $26 is not that expensive. I go Eu Yen Sang for tui na already $26 with no acupuncture. You mean they leave the needles in your wrist?! Ermm.... they got licence one hor..... Hmm... can PM me the address and name of the place?
Xinying - you v good, remind mummies at work to pump!
lili - I see... don't worry, I think it works. But I don't think shld take long term, was abit surprised when my fren sais she took it for the whole 6 months. Fenugreek ok coz it's herbal. I buy GNC brand too...
Oh yes, Happy birthday Jellypurin and Xinying!!
