JJmom2008 - Same same, me also scared to bring bb out alone myself. I cannot take it if she starts crying non-stop and pple around me start staring, thinking what a lousy mum, dunno how to coax her bb

Me going supermarket with MIL later... haha... that's like the place that I always frequent with bb ever since I delivered, coz MIL follows. Haha. Got one more person to coax bb.

Rebecca - Any thermal flask will do. Some shopping malls hv hot water in the nursing area I realise, v convenient for mummies these days. You can also pour warm water into the 1st feed bottle, put inside thermal bag bring out. When she wanna drinks, just pour powder in and shake. I bought the Avent thermal bag, quite good. As for the 2nd feed, am sure you wld hv passed by some place (food court, coffeshop, relatives' house) to replenish your hot water. That's my plan when I eventually switch her to FM.

XinYing - wah, i notice your post to pump is at 1039hr and you are bk at 1115hr?! How long you pump? Fast leh... My whole session can take at least 45 min including washing and storing the EBM. Cham, boss sure not happy when I go bk work and pump.

hahaha!!

Xinying
great idea. We chuck the kids into the swimming tub and we paint nails. I like nomads dream! Think yr range more than most manipedi shops. Colours that I want always dun have. I can bring my poshe quickdry to share. Really dry v fast!

Rebecca

Hang in there. Keep thinking-- once they grow up u can xiang3 qing1 fu2! We all at that age prob still struggling with little ones.

The way I bathe my bb is about the same as xinying. I put the bathtub on the floor instead and I sit on a ikea stool when I bath my gal. As bb grows older, the task of bathing is becoming easier

I heard pple said even no menses can conceive also cos since we have just given birth, we are very fertile so may strike any time wor. That's why I hope my menses will come back soon at least can monitor mah.</font>

 

[jillianl2004]

mousebb
yeah, know wud u mean, no joke 1 parent handling 2 kids..that'll be me next wk when hub out of town..yikes

 

[xxinyingxx]

I also normally latch. But Marcus nwowadays abit distracted. Drinking lesser. So no choice, got to pump if feeling full.

Jill, u ok with opening up ur condo for gathering? We can order high tea buffet. Let me ask who's interested. When shall it be?

 

[pig_pig]

<font color="aa00aa">Cheer Bear
