Thanks for the welcome!
Been a few days since i log in here.....havent quite finished reading everything yet. have to do everything in a rush nowadays.
Fenugreek: I may give it a try. So far, I'm only producing abt 120ml each pump (and that is when i'm very lucky)....else its only 70ml. Pathetic right? My left side is terrible....only 30ml each time.
But the strange thing is last sun, my left side milk ducts got blocked. My supply is low already...dont know why can still get blocked ducts. Had to get lactation consultant to come in. Right side no problem.
So I'm in a dilemma....to increase supply but afraid of blocked ducts. Less supply, may have to increase formula..which I'm giving once a day.
I'm glad I'm not the only one with baby wanting to be carried all times problem. yes, my parents also complain that I spoil the baby too much etc etc.
And i have one more problem with him.....he falls asleep very easily and quickly if he's nursing. So daytime when my parents look after, its terrrible. He rejects pacifiers too. sigh.
is it like this with you guys too?

Hi mummies!

Ooh didnt know got such a gd deal

Teenyweeny: Haa..you are not the only one, realised I have been spreeing and buying a lot of bb stuff too!! Just bought a set of Chinese storybooks, and now feel like getting a playmat. Wonder how useful is it, or shld I wait till bb can crawl
Renting of toys:

But didnt want to buy yet in case he didnt like it. Was talking to another colleag and we realised got quite a few such websites in sg must be coz they realised got $$ potential since mummies always like to get new stuff for bb to try out!

I'm just like you, not sure issit my pumping frequency.. I'm visiting my gynae tmr to get some advise.
Maybe your baby needs more soothing. Perhaps can try asking your parents to talk to him more, slowly discover how to assure him best..
Previously before we introduced the paci, my MIL gave him some water to just wet his mouth, if not gripe water works best for me until now.
<font color="aa00aa">glad_gal</font>
Shopaholic too eh! hehe, i got a musical playmat for my boy too! but a small one, not the LG/Parklon type.. Suppose to be interactive. Think i bought too soon also *heh*
<font color="aa00aa">Renting of Toys</font>
Yeah! Thanks for sharing, i yahoo'ed and managed to find rent-that-toy, i remember my cousin-in-law telling me abt a toy rental blog, will update once she replies me! At least can compare!
<font color="aa00aa">Mamypoko</font>
Will try on tonight for the size before i stock up! I have a very bad habit of buying in bulk!

I was informed that Vitakids is selling HappyBellies @ $9.40/tin in case anyone wants to try. Its abt there buying from the sprees as well.

WAH!! Everyone is contributing so actively I cannot catch up!! Will try to respond where I can.
Welcome to all the new mommies on the thread!
alibaba: I used Ann Tan, but she is darn ex ($200 1st visit, $100 subsequent visits). However, Choo Wan Ling delivered me because Ann Tan was on leave when I went into labour. Like Teeny Weeny, I find her pretty good. She is very gentle, and takes time to explain things to you. She is located at Paragon. think she charges $80 4 1st visit
Hey happywifey i recog you from the balboa sling BP! Hope ur baby is getting used to the sling. I am a shopperholic (i think dymples & teenyweeny are too! haha) and I am also thinking of getting the Beco. What i learnt from the balboa sling experience is to bring the baby along to try the carriers/car seat etc first... then can figure out if it is easy to use with the baby and if the baby likes it.

Teenyweeny, I delivered at Mt E. Her stiching was very good/ tight(from what the nurses told me). To be honest, when i 1st went to see her, i had some reservations cos she seems to see a lot of non-pregnancy cases ie more for cosemetic/derma stuff but i found her pretty good and dedicated after the visit and delivery =) Was she ur gyane too?

Re: Mosquito patch
There is a BP on it. $12 for 30pcs, cheaper than pharmacy.
Kash, I also go to the chinese medi shop @ Tampines Mart to get Enfalac FM and diapers. So much cheaper.

Re: Drugstore & Medela
I think drugstore does not carry Medela stuff anymore.
Re: Yaolan
Quoted from KKH website:
<font color="0000ff">"Sarong Cradles
-> Babies can fall out of sarong cradles, and the impact from the fall can cause serious injuries
-> The spring of the sarong cradle can snap
-> <font color="ff0000">Vigorous rocking can cause internal brain bleeding</font>, lead to baby falling out of the sarong cradle, or result in baby being pushed against an adjacent wall"</font>
Hence, do think twice before using. And if really need to use, do be careful.
Re: Walkers
Quoted from KKH website:
<font color="0000ff">"Baby Walkers
The myth: Baby walkers help babies to learn how to walk.
The truth: <font color="ff0000">Prolonged use of baby walkers can slow down baby's ability to walk.</font>
Babies go through many stages of development. As the infant grows, the central nervous system matures and muscle bulk increases in size gradually. This allows the infant to move from a lying down to an upright position.
There have been no studies to prove that an infant will walk at an earlier age if he is put in a walker.
Putting an infant in a walker allows him to move around and explore his surroundings. It encourages the child to extend his legs, allowing weight bearing to occur. At the same time, the muscle groups in the legs of the baby are strengthened.
<font color="ff0000">In addition, the infant should be about 5 to 6 months old before being put in a walker.</font> This is to ensure that he has developed adequate head and upper body control in an upright position.
When the infant further develops and starts to crawl or pull himself into the standing position, other muscle groups are developed in these activities. <font color="ff0000">Putting the infant in a walker then might not allow development of these other muscle groups.</font>
As the child grows stronger, a single push on the walker might propel the infant in the walker far ahead. This may lead to headlong collisions with furniture, or falls down a flight of unbarred steps.
Baby walkers have been responsible for many injuries and deaths in children as:
-> Babies in walkers move faster and reach higher than are appropriate for their age, putting them at risk of injuries
-> Babies in walkers cannot see where they are going or what they are running over well
Walkers tip over easily
-> With the `aid `of walkers, toddlers can run into hidden dangers, bump into furniture, pull on hanging appliance cords, topple over, and fall down stairs"</font>
Hence, walkers may be more of a danger than a help. If using, should not use walkers too early.

mummies, need some help/advice..
my baby has been fussing more and more after feeds, so hv been giving her some FM and EBM. Now really worried my supply is decreasing and cannot catch up so wanna start pumping. When do you guys normally pump? after latch or try to squeeze in some time in between feeds? i yield very little after latch, like 10ml only, probably cos bb has finished everything liao. But if pump in between feeds, am worried when she wakes, I hv nothing to latch.
How ah??

Morning mummies!
Maria: Bb tried the swing for 2 days - I think he is quite ok in it and also fell asleep after a full feed.
I think the swing motion and the soft music helps! However, if I just put him there when he is fussing, he can only stay still for abt 20 min haa before he starts fussing again..
Teeny weeny,
Hee yah, what are happybellies? When can we start giving bb?
Joyce: Np!
I also feel they are gd coz allows me to try out certain toys before buying...
Pamela, amooks: Serious?! So fast must enrol bb liao ah in kindergarten. Seems soo early! Was thinking more for CC haa..

My maid managed to let my daughter sleep 4 hrs in the day from 12+ to 4+ without any yao lan or anything (yes 4 hours continuous). She juz make sure my BB got suffificent gai gai time in the morning & sufficient milk before she sleep. She sleep on my bed surrounded by my hubby's & my pillow so that our smell is there and my BB feels secure.

Gd morning.. me panda eyes...
i rock my bb for 1 hr 10mins only to have him wake up 30mins later to scream. no matter wat i do he won't stop yelling. almost threw him on the bed and walked off.. in the end hb took over and he fell aslp within 15 mins.. damn sian leh!!! the only gd thing is he skipped the 4am play time and woke up at 6am instead. so tired!!
Glad_gal, thanks for the link on renting the toys! i have been looking for a swing for the longest time. almost wanted to import one over from US. but the swings all rented out leh.. hope they will be returned soon.
Alibaba, want me to collect on ur behalf? i stay near bayshore.
Re: walkers
Ya i dun think walkers are necessary. i rather use bumbo cos it forces ur bb to use the necessary muscles to keep his head up.
Re: kindergarten

Fruche, its possible that ur breast is block hence very little milk comes out. hopefully u can get it unblocked.
Glad_gal, thanks for the link on renting the toys! i have been looking for a swing for the longest time. almost wanted to import one over from US. but the swings all rented out leh.. hope they will be returned soon.
Alibaba, want me to collect on ur behalf? i stay near bayshore.
Re: walkers
Ya i dun think walkers are necessary. i rather use bumbo cos it forces ur bb to use the necessary muscles to keep his head up.

All talking abt sprees online!
I am also guilty abt shopping too. Just bot the Pupsik Pouch, waitg for it to come.. and now so tempted to buy the Balboa sling as well. Actually was deciding btween this, and the Pouch, but since Pouch is cheaper, then wanted to try out first.
Can any mummies give more feedback with regards to the Balboa sling? Wanna hear more before I cave in to temptations... again!!!

Dymples and Alibaba: Hi! My gynae is Dr Eunice Chua. Highly recommended. She's very nice and I would love to have her deliver my baby but in the end I delivered in Perth. I went to her all the way till sep then flew off to Perth. I continued seeing her after I return to sg. Dymples, we may have met in the clinic since we both deliver babies in nov.
Krystel: re milk blisters, the other day my lactation consultant also mentioned about using needle to poke. she said that type of blocked ducts is easiest to treat. just poke and milk will come gushing. i think its similar to what Dymples did herself.
Happywifey: about expressing milk...what I did was one month before i begin work, I give my bb formula in the evening. and in place of that, i expressed milk and freeze it. Collected just enough for a week's suppy cos i dun have much.
and cos i dun have much usually i dun express after feeds. I know I'm supposed to do that to increase ss but I'm also afraid if bb hungry again i hv no more milk. and i find the sterilizing of equip such a chore too!!! and then to express only 5ml each time gosh!!
Fifi: If you are helping mummies to get those milkbags pls let me know. I hv used medela ones and like it but too exp. now using playtex cos cheaper but i find them troublesome...difficult to clip the bag properly....quite often my precious milk will leak out of the bag. if lansinoh ones are like zip blocked bags, I'd much prefer using those. thks in advance.
