jul> gees. so good to have lots of milk. think my supply dropping again, becos i've been too lazy these few days. hais. no more milk leh. dunno y oso. -_- maybe becos i've not been diligently taking my fenugreek supply too
 
Finished pumping..

Boobs are flat, floppy n empty..

Unfortunately, bottles are also quite empty...

*stares at bottles hoping there's a parallax error somewhere*

I know it should be tight. But so tight that I can't stuff my boy in leh. Tried twice today and he became very grumpy, so cannot continue. My hub was helping me and I'm thinking that he can't always be there to help me put baby in. So can put him up right huh? I try try again tomorrow.

Jul
Nice to have your friend demo live for you.

I am dying to go out. Just got a hand-me-down pram, but my boy don't like to lie down for too long and hates the cradle hold. So bring him out like very troublesome now. Me turning 'moldy' at home, sob.

Pain in other boob when nursing
Recently when I nurse my boy on one breast, can feel some pain in the other breast. Is this normal?

Happykae
Hey, me also july 1979. My first kid only at 30. Don't know if I will have another one although would love to have a girl.

I am still waiting for my boy to grow older when he can interact with me. But it's really happy when I see him smile at me and making noises when I talk to him.
 
You all really reporting arh!! Wah sei. Now still pending Lina, cookiezz and rach! But I think rach went to sleep liao.

Lochia Begone! Gong xi gong xi! Now can have sex liao.
biggrin.gif

My bub also off mittens since Monday cos I can't stand the wet mittens!! Although I can't seem to force him to suck his thumb, he has to do it willingly on his own leh. And he's more of hand sucking than thumb sucking. But who cares?! As long as he diam diam!


<font color="ff3399">Jul</font>
If pumping in peace usually have more milk, I noticed that for myself.
Never pump since 7pm? You've been latching?
How can bottles be empty if you haven't pump for 5+ hrs?! You sure not?!

3 mths hardly magic mark, cos not out of "colic-free zone" yet. And still not as interactive as they would be at 6 mths!


<font color="ff3399">Prettymums</font>
Immed after latching I can get about 30-40ml from that boob? Other boob is usual amt lor (80-180ml depending on when the last pumping was), since bb only latch on 1 side per feed. But usually I only pump about an hour after latching, so I can "harvest" more.


<font color="ff3399">milkyway</font>
Your boobs seem quite inconsistent hor? Happy happy soft, happy happy then full. Mine still feel quite sore from those days when I didn't pump.
sad.gif
Boobs like having fever like that, always feel hot.


<font color="ff3399">bbq98 / happykae</font>
Happy pumping, girls!

<font color="ff3399"> joopz</font>
Is it like something poking the boob kind of pain? I get that also leh! Heard it has something to do with milk being produced, thus got slight pain. I don't like that feeling. Makes me feel weird and uncomfy. BUt no choice leh!
 
Just took shower.. hahah just now posted say going to shower then baby woke up... So I latched him on lying down then who knows, I dozed off as well.. hahahah

Then when showering, BB woke up so have to cut it short..

Now he sleep already hope can pump in peace then go sleep soon..

<font color="ff3399">Steph</font>
I'm expecting mine to wake ard 1.30 since last feed was 10.30pm. But I hope he doesn't wake! Just now 1am heard him make some noise then heard him sucking hands again. Woohoo, i think he now can successfully self-comfort liao.
 
<font color="aa00aa">shelled</font> - babies when born will all Pa Jiao a bit mah... but will outgrow it lah.. cause they can't focus yet so always look pa jiao..hahah

Sex... last thing on my mind.. in fact it was already last thing on my mind before concieving... but sway sway (or heng heng) that twice in Dec, I was pregnant... hahah *faintz*

Now I'm so tired loh.. how to have sex... some more dun wan to risk having #5... hahah
 
my boy still not sleeping frm 9pm onwards... sleep and then wake up within minutes.. just fed him FM so he can sleep with full stomach.. but he is still eyes wide open...

shelled
yah lah... i also dont know why... but i was out today in the afternoon so didnt latch her and she was fed EBM. mayb that's why hard hard again? but ytd cant b soft whole day mah and when i tried pumping.. i get very pathetic amt lor.. then now i can at 200ml again!! siao one lor..

and my gal aso a little pa jiao when she stare at me closeup... hahaha

joopz
i also get that piecing sudden pain.. but even when not nursing leh.. it can just happen anytime lor.. i dont like it too!!
 
-Rubs Eyes-

I thought it was 5am... Because she has been sleeping on my stomach and chest for so long!!! When I opened my eyes... It's only 2.35??? T^T So I thought... Heck, just pump... I pray she sleeps through and spare me the torture... I had to sleep like a "Mummy" for I "Thought" 5hrs, but ended up 2hrs. >.<
 
<font color="ff3399"> Steph</font>
I don't mean that kind of pak jiao lah. But real pak jiao lor. Dunno why got paranoia that my kids will pak jiao.
You also very suay (or heng) leh. Twice nia also can... Must be very fertile indeed! Are you considering contraceptive methods to prevent conception of #5?


<font color="ff3399">Jess</font>
Soft also should pump lah. Stimulate more supply mah. But very tired hor? *sigh* Some days I also pump minimally only when boobs get very uncomfy. Tired leh, esp when small bugger is fussy.


<font color="ff3399">milkyway</font>
200ml?! So good! Ytd you latch her alot is it? Maybe that's why soft soft?
 
<font color="aa00aa">shelled</font> - Yah loh.. some more I was so busy preparing for my boy's P1 stuffs...
Yes definatelt!!! was thinking of IUD but not sure whether it affects BM supply or not...

I'm super forgetful so Mercilon is out... lol

<font color="0077aa">shelled</font>
2am gave my boy "human pacifier" &amp; "BM dessert" after the FM feed..
so no need to pump liao... argh.. after each breast BF, he managed to doze off but woke up few minutes later... so now at 3.06am.. finally sleep liao!! im free.. and no need to pump liao.. he "pumped" for me liao...

and i dun enuff storage bottles and used up my milkbags.. waiting for the lansinoh to arrive!!

my boy eyes oso got a bit crossed when he focused on thing so near to him.. im so worried it might be permanent leh
 
Today I ending my shift early. My hubs jio me go to bed. (Not for sex cos small bugger sleeping with us tonight.) Hahahaha.
He didn't wake up for his 1.30am feed, so I'm just gonna give him dream feed now so he'll sleep til at least 7am before he needs milk again.
