p3pp3r, i trying to convince myself on tt too. but somehow quite difficult to control my emotion.
sun, depends on bb.. on average first wk, bb of 3kg is taking abt 60ml to 90ml of milk according to PD..
anyway, it's best if you can bf totally.. i aren't able to keep up with bb's apetite.. so no choice, got to mix some formula milk..

Hi <font color="0000ff">Kome</font>,
Re: ML, I think we ourselves know our body limit best. We should have good rest to prepare for the big day. I think it is also good to stay at home to do some last min packing or tidy up baby room, etc. Even got nothing to do, Zzz also good. I just endure for another 2 working days and can start enjoy some vacation before baby pop! Taking care of new born shall be more tiring than working... HeeHee..
Hi <font color="0000ff">mangogal</font>,
I have washed my BB Cot bumper using washing machine rinse mode. After wash, need to "adjust" the padding inside back to shape before hang out to sun.
Hi <font color="0000ff">sun</font>,
Better bring bra so that can attend Gleneagles Hospital "baby bathing and breastfeeding" classes.

sunshine and wintertime, I just latch on as often but I know its not enough cos baby will sleep a while and then start crying. So have been supplementing with FM. Wintertime, I also worry not enough BM but CL and friends tell me that for the first child the BM will slowly increase. So lets jiayou together!
I uses bottle to feed the FM and find that baby still latches on well.
Prosper, I lost 6kg till now. Hopefully the massage and BF will help me lose more weight!

p3pp3r,
i agree with cindy. whenever i am very down during pregnancy, i will look at bb's 4D scan picture and video of her, it does makes me smile and feel better.

to mommies doing breast feeding:
i found this on a website, so dun feel discourage if ur supply is not as much.. continue to do ur best..
"A 1 day old baby's stomach capacity is about 5-7 ml, or about the size of a marble. Interestingly, researchers have found that the day-old newborn's stomach does not stretch to hold more. Since the walls of the newborn's stomach stays firm, extra milk is most often expelled (spit up). Your colostrum is just the right amount for your baby's first feedings!
By day 3, the newborn's stomach capacity has grown to about 0.75-1 oz, or about the size of a "shooter" marble. Small, frequent feedings assure that your baby takes in all the milk he needs.
Around day 7, the newborn's stomach capacity is now about 1.5-2 oz, or about the size of a ping-pong ball. Continued frequent feeding will assure that your baby takes in all the milk he needs, and your milk production meets his demands."

Between two and six days, most mothers will find that their milk "comes in". Sometimes this is accompanied by engorgement. Mom's breasts may swell and latching may be a little difficult for a couple of days. Frequent nursing will help to resolve, or even prevent engorgement. Because Mom's body doesn't know how much milk baby needs, it just makes a LOT, resulting in a heaviness or fullness in the breasts. Around the second week this fullness often goes away. This is not because mom is losing her milk but because the body has learned to regulate it's production to the amount her baby needs.
sun, yup.. trying to take it positively..
nana, ya... bb is one wk old now.. i started taking fenugreek yesterday too. hope it helps.
