Fenugreek - how many tablets do you girls take? I bought mine from GNC, 610mg. I have beeen taking 2 per day, is it enough?
flower,
Seems like your hubby is pretty sensitive. Maybe he is also feeling as stressful as you? Maybe get someone (mil or sister)in to look after the bb for awhile, u & hubby have some "US Time".

Dear mummies,
would like to ask, do you bathe your babies once or twice a day?
During confinement, my CL bathe baby in the morning and wipe him at nite. After confinement, mil say to bathe him twice a day.. 1 in morning & 1 in evening. I find it too much.
searched websites, it was advised not to bathe baby too much, like 2-3 or 1-2 times in a week!
Thanks.

TMC lactation specialist advised me to take 2 tablets, 3x a day after meal. She said can cut down to 1 tablet, 3x a day if supply is already good. Not sure if this applies to everyone, but I think it's more of case to case basis?
<font color="ff0000">Flower4</font>,
From what you described, I think you hubby is in fact a good dad who is trying hard to care for his baby. Which is a very good thing, as you can read from here, not many daddy wants to get involved much.
You must understand, when baby cries, he/she really make our blood boils. Unless one can keep his cool or is very experienced dad/mum, else sure start to shout/throw temper one.
My suggestion to you - you have to put 100% trust in your hubby, IF he can promise you no matter what happen, he won't hurt the baby. Then leave the baby to him totally. You may leave them in a different room and let him try handle baby alone. Yes, my hubby would be very angry too if i suggested something like it's the milk too hot, to us, we thought we try to suggest some possible reasons, but to them, it's like an insult that they are not good enough to care for their baby, it's MAN problem
I know you know this, but just to remind you - baby cries is not neccessarily a bad thing. That's the only way he/she can communicate with us. If you can soothe the baby within a minute, of course that's great. If you can't, just let him/her cry, and you try all the possible thing to soothe him - change diaper, carry him, walk, give milk, etc.
Just to share with you, my baby demands certain ways of carrying her. And it's not 1 particular way. Sometimes I carry with my right hand, she is ok, but sometimes she doesn't want, so change to my left hand, and she stops crying immediately. Baby is baby. Their needs are very basic and simple. And please remember it's not necessarily hunger that makes her cries.
For my baby, just started this week, she also refuses the last feed at night, both latch on and bottle. After a few days of trying, we finally found out that she didn't want milk at that hour. The reason she cries is because she is tired and wants to sleep. So we just carries her and soothe her to sleep, sometimes she wants her pacifier, sometimes she doesn't. Then only after she fall asleep, I feed her EBM about 1 hour later, and it's PEACE!
You have to learn to keep your cool. And be positive!!! Jia you!!!

Ya lah, it was ME asking abt the difference between landline and HP number for ParentCraft. I thought the mobile line was more of a helpline, and not the line to call ParentCraft for LC appt. So I just called the landline.
<font color="ff3399">Melissa</font>
At most I just bath my bb once a day in the afternoon when my #1 naps. If days are like today, very windy and cold, then sometimes I won't bath him. Just wipe him down lor.
The 1-2 times a week is more of foreign countries where they have 4 seasons, i think. Cos most part of the year would be too cold for babies.

Ladies,
My breast feel sore to touch, not the areola area but the breast. The blue black kind of pain but of course no blue black ehehheee. Why huh ? Is this engorgement ?? Even after pumping it still feels the same.. Softer but still pain to touch.
Michelle,
Wow no wonder no increase in milk supply yet ! I follow the instruction on the bottle hehehee.
I bathe my girl once in the morning or mid day depending on her sleeping time, then one in the evening (without soap) more of a wipe down + change of clothes. Any babies out there like my "DRAMA QUEEN DAUGHTER" who screams out loud (non stop) during shower ??? Headache !!

<font color="ff3399"><font size="+1">SORE BOOBS</font> (not nipples/areola hor)</font>
Same as Lina, I've also been having this sore boobs issue for the past few days. So just now I called TMC ParentCraft to ask for both of us lah. Was told that it's caused due to not clearing boobs often enough. So boobs swell, then after swell a few times, then your nehneh feel sore, bruised and battered lor.
Mommies, please start emptying your nehneh regularly!! I didn't cos my Ameda sotsot mah, but now I can liao!!
Was also told the soreness should pass in a few days once boobs get chance to recover. Which means I should probably need to empty boobies very very often these few days to facilitate recovery. Will need the love of Pumping Pals for the next few nights!

I didn't order Glamourmum.
Up to you - for me i will order M la- die die also must squeeze in.
I bought 10pcs of Forever21 tops ( M size) all seems too big, like L or XL.
Is Rayanne feeling better now? dont be too stress k - *hugs*
Yummie Tummie - supplier will contact us for payment right?
Girlygirly,
Yeah so coincidence - next gathering must put them together and take photo... sure very cute.
'Frozen Ice Cream - so far my #1 has been eating 3-4 sticks/ day. She even request to add some ribena syrup. The way she eat seems so yummie.
Michelle,
i guess my boobs will be too tight for M size but i hay-care la - later order L size then my body too comfortable then cannot slim dwn how.
Now everynight i wear my "lumimi set" to slp - after wearing it, like cannot breath so xin qu. But still insist to put it on - lol
Mama26js,
can you share wif me the pros and cons of having 2 maids? i tot of engaging another one more to help out till baby turn 1yrs.
heard many stories abt it- should get from same country or different?
baby's weigh
I'm happy - just weighed Baby and she is 5.9kg . she was oni 2.34kg when she was born and now 1mth 26days she gained more then double.
Xiaowei,
I know tat smell - is damn disgusting. i think the breast milk has the metallic/ fishy smell is becos we freeze our it together with our food. Usually i will discard the milk is there is smell - so wasted!
Tat is also one of the reason y i bought a freezer . Now my milk smells fresh ... even those frozen one. no more metallic/fishy smell le

thanks for the advise on the frozen EBM. I called TMC parentcraft just now and was advised tt it's ok to feed bb with it so long as it's not sour (spoilt). Normal to have fishy/metallic taste.
But hor... i smell liao even i myself wun want to drink it... really disgusting but not sour.... Will prob try to feed her later to see if my bb wants or not

Shelled,
Thanks for calling up TMC to check it out !
Now it all make sense, no wonder my wonder boob is not harvest as much as the lazy boob. I tried so hard to empty it though, but with the lousy Avent Single Electric pump doom lah.. Think need to engage my little princess to do the work.
Seems like all of you give birth at TMC ? Any mummies deliver at M. Alvernia ? Is the lactation consultant any good ? Don’t remember them giving us glass bottles like TMC yea ?
Kam,
2 tablets - 3 times a day !! The fenugreek I am taking now is at 610mg per tablet, yours ??

Jul,
Yes I wanted to die...
Mommies,
I've been downgraded to the toilet for pumping sessions.
Staff/friend needed to eat and went out to buy lunch. I had to pump so I had to use the table and pantry for FIFTEEN MINUTES. Staff came back and I told HB if he needed to eat immediately.. I'd go to the wash basin area, I'M WEARING A CAPE COVERING MYSELF ANYWAY. And my basin area is BLACK AND DARK ( Ask Rach, She knows. ) What is there to see?
Staff came back and ate at the wash basin area holding his pkt of roasted pork rice. I was left with a frikkin 3 minutes?! When I was done I told him to use the table... He kinda ignored me???
And when I went to the front HB told me to do it in the toilet next time... Like WTF did I do wrong now?! @#!$&^*
I feel like F@&*. I've been NON STOP since I woke up.. bathing BB, feeding BB, washing and sterilizing, getting ready for work, packing my pump, reaching work and assempbling pump to pump.. Fow who? My BB and HIS BB. Why the F!@% do I have to tire myself so much and spend so much of my BLOODY TIME?! Have this sick tummy which he says it looks FINE... Can't fit into my F!&@ing clothes !@#$ I really wanna break down and cry right now with tears welling up sitting at the counter, but I'm swallowing it because I don't want this to affect the biz!!!
Even wanting a SINGLE DAY OFF for me might affect business and that's why I'm here after my confinement is over. What appreciation do I bloody get? !@&(*&#

My BB and HIS BB. Why the F!@% do I have to tire myself so much and spend so much of my BLOODY TIME?! Have this sick tummy which he says it looks FINE... Can't fit into my F!&@ing clothes !@#$ I really wanna break down and cry right now with tears welling up sitting at the counter, but I'm swallowing it because I don't want this to affect the biz!!!
Even wanting a SINGLE DAY OFF for me might affect business and that's why I'm here after my confinement is over. What appreciation do I bloody get? !@&(*&#

Any gathering coming up soon for all Sept babies ?? Will be fun to meet up with all mummies + Sept babies..
Girlygirly ~ your daughter so cute hehehee I love Ribena but hate milk, cant imagine the combination hehee
Paige,
Thanks
Yea I will try harder tonight, praying + keeping her awake 2hours before the last feed. She tends to sleep after every feed.
Michelle, Paige
Aiyo my girl huh, I tried giving her a bath after her feed but then she's still pretty upset coz she wants to sleep. She gets very upset if anyone disturb her feeding & sleeping & cool air.. (air con). See you tonight too michelle !!
Rach,
I am using Avent SINGLE ELECTRIC Pump…ummm very very tempted to get the BIG TOY - Medela… Mount A short change me yea ? Never give me glass bottles , argh. How's the lactation consultant, why not we go visit together eehheee.
Pam,
Oh no, don’t cry… don’t be sad.. You R doing a great job. Sometime man just don’t know how to show their appreciation. Bet he appreciates YOU & everything that you are doing for the business, family & BB. Go grab a choco bar / bubble tea, all you need is SUGAR BOOST… (I sounds like a bad influence - intro junk food) well alittle junk food is better than feeling down & get depressed.. JUNK FOOD keeps depression away !!!

as u know, ur HB is very protective over u..
Mmm... u gotta work something out urself with him.....
but hugs... its not easy and its been tiring....
try to explain to him and see what can be done??
ask if he'll drink milk pumped in the toilet... and if he says no..ask him why he wants his bb to drink milk from pumping in the toilet??

<font color="aa00aa">Pam</font> - Hush Hush *hugz*... Honestly Men dun understand... maybe you should talk to him calmly one night... Let him know what you are going through and what mummies whom have bfed their babies say about their health.
My hubby also till now also keep telling me to give FM and I have to keep reminding him that our #3 is different in terms of health and mentally as well.. then he keep quiet and okie...
So need to explain to them calmly and simply for them to understand.
Do give him some time, he also first time dad...
We are all here to support you k?

I threw it away liaoz... i just pumped at 2plus.. think since her tummy is upset.. i better give her fresh EBM..rather than the frozen ones... so i sterilize the bottle and use another already sterilized one to put the milk and now i'm warming it.. by the time she wake up, she should be able to drink liaoz.. sigh... its so sad... to have a not-feeling-well baby.. feel like a lousy mummy... ggrr...

i'll observe for a few more days as advised by the LC at TMC... maybe if things dun get better, i'll go on Friday if she's still refusing latch... coz need to go back PD for folow up also... might as well..since my PD at Thomson Road...
