Gd Morning,
Who else popped y'day? Anyone in TMC? I'll be going there in the afternoon for my post-natal checkup!
Woke up this morning with hardness/lumps in my right B again, hence, nid some pump to get rid of it & guess, managed to get 40ml on right & 20ml on left, without totally emptying them!
Hope everyone is doing fine. Off to shower Hui Xin whom has just been exposed to the morning sun for 30mins.

Joyce,
I forgot to submit when we do the BC for the baby. Can check with you for form BB@, the part to be filled by account holder can be either me or my hubby and the bank account can be either of our bank account or is it refering to baby's bank account. Do we need to open a bank account under baby's name? Or we can use my hubby & my joint account?

Janice,
I take care of bb myself day & nite including shower/change nappy/bf full time! MIL & helper helps in cooking/preparing shower water/wash nappies.
Is ur hubby able to help in washing/cleaning the house? If so, u my cater confinement food and the rest leave to ur hubby to do.. however, u may find it exhuasting as this is ur 1st bb & sometimes u may not get ur bb's cue on what it wants!

thanks joyce, my mum felt that after giving birth.. i shldn't touch water thus doesn't wan me to bath the bb myself
oki, seldom soft because i dont pump unless really bo bian... whahhaha... i'm lazy!
but i realise lazy mummies have advantage also.. we tend to latch more, meaning supply more, less chances of engorgement and can enjoy more bonding with bb..
disadvantage is we feed on demand 24\7, we r human pacifier..
oki, i have dragged my nite pumping to 4.5hrs.. i think i will stick to that timing because Bs r full but no engorgement and can get ard 300ml even after latching. need to wake up once to pump only... u can test yr schedule again... hehhee...

I usually try to remove if she dun suckle any more.. then try to get bean bag to place on her tummy.. once the cord has dropped, I will let her lay on her tummy.. she shd sleep longer if on tummy!

Hi mummies!
Talking about weather, I turn on the aircon and fan all the time, except meal and shower times! Die ah, sure a lot of wind has gone into me! But what to do, weather is terrible and I have heat rashes all over my neck and shoulders...
Just told my hubby the first thing I want to do on the last day of my confinement is to DRINK A GLASS OF COCA COLA FILLED WITH ICE!!!
liewb, PUB bill? I dare not even think about it. Surely doubled or tripled, esp with confinement lady wasting my gas, water and electricity
This month's expenses is gonna be real real high!
CL:
Just now, CL for no reasons, scolded my maid... she came into my room crying... sian... so tired liao still must be a middleman! Both my CL and maid very sensitive species
For those who are coming to an end to your confinement, CONGRATULATIONS and WELL DONE! Enjoy your freedom
For those who are still doing your confinement like me, lets press on and look forward to our day of freedom

hi mummies.. haha.. it indeed is a hateful mth to do confinement...
electricity- me on air con 24/7.... can't be bothered to off it.. since i hide in room most of the time... anyway, guess its only for this month ba.. just leave it. dun wanna make myself suffer...
in fact i think its ok for us to on air con instead of using fan... i've always got this feeling tt.. in controlled room temp, is better....than fan blowing wind.. (on top of tt, hot air nia)zzz

shers,
thanks... tat breast always yields less milk...I will try to latch on more often... the tingling feeling... really cant be sure, never feel that before... just that my breast always feels a bit painful... like engorged but still very soft?
output still pitatic... 50ml per pump from both side. only pump twice a day when breast feels hard...for feeding during daytime... try to latch at nite...
Porky,
mind if i ask how is ur progress? need some benchmarking... me still doing only 100-110ml per day for the past 3 days since i started fenugreek...

melody,
jia you!! latch whenever u can... minimise pumping..
u will get more and more... drink more longan water before u latch.. u will be surprised.. else milo helps to boost supply as well... heard that it contains a cocoa that boost the supply..
i drink 1 cup of hot milo every morning..
