Hi Chantalle
Jia you.. I do not Know how to help u
But last time, i just force my baby to accept the bottle as she also have nipple-bottle confusion.. Spend alot alot of time for her to suck the teats until she really hungry n drink from teats.. Once she adapt to teats, for many days, i dun Latch her already, in order not to create any more confusion.
These few days, I latched her back as i have lumps & infection to clear.. she used her bottle way to suck my nipple..But i leave it to her own way of sucking, dun change her already.
Hi iemiko
How much is a tin of similac stage 1 ( 0-6 months)? I need to get a tin for baby to try.. incase she reject FM... cos its been months she tasted any FM.
Hi snowger
Yes, my temper is very bad lately.. HB talked to me abit harsh.. i can scream him back twice as harsh.. very very bad..
I dun wan all these..
My friend told me, breastfeeding is not everything, without breastfeeding it does not mean we are a bad mother. Just try our best lor ( I am always giving myself excuses to make myself not so guilty if i stop bf her)
I told my HB, i will definitely cry..I will Latch my baby one last time.. let her suck till she happy,b4 i pop the medicine.. cos it will be her last time to latch for milk. my poor baby.

ok, based on my understanding, Baking Soda has a bitter taste if used alone as it lacks acidity.
Baking powder contains both acid and a base.
So i guess your recipe is trying to even out the taste by using both. Also, when the 2 are used together, Baking powder basically does most of the job of rising the mixture. The baking soda is added to neutralize the acids in the recipe plus to add tenderness and some rising.
For me if baking a cake, I prefer to use double action Baking Powder as it rises in 2 stages (one when mixed with water, 2nd in the oven due to the heat) It gives a better rise to my cakes
If you you single action baking powder or baking soda, you have to bake it quickly right after mixing, otherwise you may get a flat cake.

Hi Chantalle,
I am from Jan 09 thread, though my boy was born in Dec.
I have EXACTLY the same problem as you. My house is full of bottles & different sizes of teats - NUK classic, NUK premium, Avent. My boy (almost 3 mths) keep on fussing over bottles. In fact he was on NUK classic during confinement & no problem.
I am at wits end cos I will be starting work soon. It is like fighting a battle when comes to feeding.

Dear all,
I happened to lurk around and saw the lively conversations about breastfeeding - what it does to you, your baby and most of all the relationship between wife and hubby. I couldn't help but to login and share my story with all of you.
I also gave birth in dec to a healthy baby boy and have been breastfeeding for 3 months now. I realise that when we are breastfeeding, our hormones are topsy turvy and can make us very short tempered. I guess for many of us who are first time mums, it makes us very anxious and our maternal instinct just acts up on us.
Do perservere with breastfeeding if you can but like what jowinbaby said, breastfeeding is not everything. Our babies need us beyond our milk so no point for us to get all stressed up about breastfeeding. Its easy to say it but hard to live to that statement. As women, we condemn ourselves as failures when we learn that there are other women out there who have successful breastfeeding stories to tell.
Just to share with you all, each time i wanted to quit breastfeeding, something or someone with some inspiring story about breastfeeding will happen to me.
Nearing CNY, I went shopping for clothes, happen to meet one saleslady who was very auntie auntie around her 40s, when I told her i wanted to look for loose clothes to hide my big boobs due to Bf-ing, she told me not to give up, she breastfed her babies till they all went to kindergarten.
2 weeks ago, I suffered from mastitis and went to my gp for dostinex. I couldn't take it anymore but upon reaching the clinic, I told the attendant at the counter about my situation and she again managed to psycho me to take antibiotics and to keep at it to breastfeed. She breastfed her baby till 1 year old.
The most inspiring story i know about breastfeeding is from my doula. She breastfed her baby till 6.5 years old!! I really admire her willpower to keep at it!
My baby is not on TBF but i'm happy that i'm able to provide him with whatever feed I can give him. Don't be mistaken that my supply is not abundant. I pump exclusively because my baby was hospitalised shortly after birth for a swollen tummy. Now i pump 3 times a day and can yield between 250 - 300ml each time i pump but I still give my baby 2 feeds of FM each day so he will not reject FM should my supply really dwindle one day.
To all breastfeeding mothers out there, kudos to you, you ladies are doing a great job. To all mums who are not breastfeeding, it doesn't mean that we are lousy mothers, we have tried our best and we can be there for our babies and bond with them in others ways.
Thanks for listening mummies. This forum is such a great platform for lending support to one another. Let's keep our spirits up and try to be a good wife and mother to our husbands and babies.
Take care all!

Hi Mummies,
For those interested in the Similac, pls go ahead to buy if u can get better price else where. Cos its not really worth it to order 12 from the supplier and u dun actually need so much at all. I'm ordering cos I really need 12 cans. Sorry to have taken up your time and didn't help at all.
