I think I am damn 犯贱 lor. When the buggers don't sleep I complain, then when they both sleep so early and so well, I cannot fall asleep cos so used to late nights (or rather, early mornings). Pfffffft!!

You and me 没有缘. Hurhur.
Your 1 boob usually can make 100+ml?! You win liao lor. Mine only ard 150ml per boob leh, so when I pump after latching, I usually only got 200ml in total (50+150). During my low supply hours (5-8pm) I usually only get 120-150ml total.
YOU DAMN GOOD. You feed 2 better lah. Wanna sponsor EBM to my #1??
<font color="ff3399">Lina</font>
Please remember to store your EBM this time round. Otherwise wasted again!

You also pump very fast hor?

SMLJ?! This is called "sharing the truth". Or rather MY version lah. Maybe 3mths will really be your magic mark lor. For me, I only look humane, boobs feel more normal, etc etc ard 6 mths mah. Cannot meh?!?! Now I just wanna humtam my own boobs for the hardness and that idiotic stinging/poking pain that I feel almost all day and night. All this only started after I reduce my pumping when my Ameda stopped working for me lor. Oh dear Lord, make it go away!!
What size of "full bottle" you want har? If it's the 250ml kind, don't worry, I also cannot fill up even if I total up 2 sides. Only on very very good days when I get very nice sleep then I will have it. So far only twice, I think. *flips pumping record book* Oh wait, thrice. On 21 Oct's 1pm session, 28 Oct's 11.30am and 6.45pm session. (Yes I have OCD so I record everything down.)

Q. My childbirth instructor says it's not pain I'll feel during labor, but pressure. Is she right?
A. Yes, in the same way that a tornado might be called an air current.
Q. When is the best time to get an epidural?
A. Right after you find out you're pregnant.
Q. Is there any reason I have to be in the delivery room while my wife is in labor?
A. Not unless the word "alimony" means anything to you.
Q. I'm modest. Once I'm in the hospital to deliver, who will see me in that delicate position?
A. Authorized personnel only -- doctors, nurses, orderlies, photographers, florists, cleaning crews, journalists, etc.
Q. Does labor cause hemorrhoids?
A. Labor causes anything you want to blame it for.
Q. Where is the best place to store breast milk?
A. In your breasts.
Q. Is there a safe alternative to breast pumps?
A. Yes, baby lips.
Q. What does it mean when a baby is born with teeth?
A. It means that the baby's mother may want to rethink her plans to nurse.
Q. How does one sanitize nipples?
A. Bathe daily and wear a clean bra. It beats boiling them in a saucepan.
Q. What happens to disposable diapers after they're thrown away?
A. They are stored in a silo in the Midwest, in the event of global chemical warfare.
Q: I'm two months pregnant now. When will my baby move?
A: With any luck, right after he finishes college.
Q: How will I know if my vomiting is morning sickness or the flu?
A: If it's the flu, you'll get better.
Q: Should I have a baby after 35?
A: No, 35 children is enough.
Q: Is there anything I should avoid while recovering from childbirth?
A: Yes, pregnancy.
Q: Do I have to have a baby shower?
A: Not if you change the baby's diaper very quickly.
Q: Our baby was born last week. When will my wife begin to feel and act normal again?
A: When the kids are in college.

milkway,
Good morning.
U belong to night shift or morning shift?? If I were you, I'll sleep so long as bb doesn't make noise. My bb can stare at me sleeping like a log.
Mel,
Could your bb be having colic? Why don't you take her to the PD if this has been going on for so long? I have 4 kids so I've to manage them as best I can with my maid's help. Good thing I'm having maternity leave now. They are all having flu and cough, and my 21mth old boy keeps waking at early hours for company.. Lucky not gone nuts yet.
Insufficient rest might lead to dip in bm supply for me, I realise... Maybe, it's similar for you.

I read that most mommies latch bb at nite rather than bottle feed cos no need to wash and pump and sterilize. I tried last nite. Wah piang, cannot make it! Ian will suckle for 10 min and fall asleep ( not to mention I was also struggling to stay awake) and no matter how I tried, he won't wake to carry on feeding so I have to put him to bed. He'll then wake 1 hr later, hungry again! Last nite, he woke at 4:30, 5:50 and 6:40! How you all do it?

must rave about my husband. so ultra sweet out of the blue since yesterday. last evening he sent older boy to my mum's place while i was out at borders shopping. then when i came back, he bought me pizza for dinner, offered to bath my younger one, and even hanged the laundry. now he's preparing the water to bath the younger one while i sit here and brush my teeth. feel so "xin fu" this morning.

itsy,
latch on is like that. i woke up every 1.5 hours last night to feed. fed till i was so frustrated that i stuffed the pacifier into his mouth after the 4 plus feed to keep him quiet. weather was quite cold last night perhaps so bb need for milk/comfort.
mel,
sonnigt has 4 children. and so does girly and steph. and mamato6Js has 6 children!

Now just temporarily use thumb only lah... lol.. cause I also dun wan it to end up as a habit.. this is just so that I can have 30 secs of peace... hahahah

<font color="aa00aa">mampoko</font> - Yes, mine from GNC too... I'm taking 9 caps a day. I took this dosage last time when I had #3 and it worked well... I did see slight increase.. I also will forget to eat or forgot if I had eaten... hahaha so now I use the medicine container and ration my day's amount first and eat accordingly.
I'm using Avent bottles and changed to Teat Size 2 when bb was struggling and upset with Avent Size 1 and he's now coping well... My boy at times will drip out milk one so to me its quite normal cause he does that even before changing teat size.
<font color="aa00aa">Mel</font> - Welcome...
For your girl crying nonstop daily, would it be Colic? Does she bring her knees to the chest when crying and nothing seems to calm her down? Maybe its Colic and doctor may give colic med? Think you too stress lah.. dun stress and rest well... (hahah who am I to advise on breastfeeding.. lol) Hugz, my supply also super low type... heheh but I'm trying to get supply up with supplements and latching and expressing...
I did have red spots on one of my breast previously for about 1 day and it disappeared.. How long did you have the spots on your breast? If its very long, then maybe you should see a doc?
<font color="aa00aa">itsy</font> - I give dream feeds to baby in the morning like 6-9am feeds...cause bb sleeps like at least 5 hours at night, sometimes 9... so he sleeps beside me and I just latch him lying down.. most of the time I fall asleep with my boobs exposed only realising when I really wake up... hahaha

sandwich, itsy and milkway,
I'm the laziest around, I guess
I can't wake up in the middle of the night to feed bb after full month each time. So, I express out for bb to bottlefeed near midnight. Usually can get bb to sleep till 4 plus or 5 in the morning before I latch during the day. Don't want bb too attached to me since I'll be working near end Dec. So far, quite ok except for certain nights when it's a bit warm.
flower4,
When I only had #1 without a maid, my schedule's like latch ard 7am while having simple breakfast of bread and hot drink. When bb finished, sterilize pump and bottles ard 8plus. Wash bb's clothes and clean the house. Catch a nap if possible near 10am while latching bb. Prepare lunch ard 11am and eat quickly before pumping a while and latch bb again while taking noon nap. After nap, bathe before latching bb and pumping every 2 to 3 hourly. Dinner preparation also done fast and simple. but last pumping ard 11plus before bb's hungry so that I can bottlefeed by midnight. That way, bb sleeps longer at night so I don't wake up to pump or latch till 6plus in the morning.

flower4,
he suddenly helped cos he saw me looking tired yesterday. yah, he doesn't bathe the baby usually. cos when the toddler is around, he has to bathe the toddler and i'll bathe the baby. but i'll be getting him to bathe baby on a full time basis after baby learns how to sit up on his own. cos if you bottlefeed, you actually can determine a fixed amount that bb drinks. if you latch on, chances are (like itsy says), bb keeps falling asleep before finishing a full feed. so end up have to keep waking up to cry for milk before 3 hours is up.
rach,
you bringing gal to PD again today? a spot of urine might be an indication of UTI. but hopefully your gal is fine.
steph,
yah super sweet. just now at 10am he volunteered babysitting services. so now he and baby napping in the study room. i could take a half an hour nap + get a long bath. going to wake the boys up to go out for lunch now ... i want to go to waraku to eat cha soba!
cookiezzz,
all the best for the moving. i think you'll have a lot of fun doing up jacob's room.

Yes. Like sandwich mentioned, a few mummies here have 4 kids or more.
Think Girlygirly is the most capable, managing 4 kids on her own.
sandwich,

<font color="aa00aa">Mel</font> - Erm... I find it ok loh.. some times no QC lah.. but I think inside got Fenugreek seeds... and maybe got other ingredients I cannot see.. What I can see is Red dates, Papaya, a couple of pcs of fish, wolfberries and sometimes have this seed thing which I believe is Fenugreek.
When nice its really nice but sometimes will have scales inside.. hahah Oh yah.. forgot to feedback about that.. lol
Per serving should be $6.50. I normally buy 7 boxes frozen and costs me about $49++.

My mom had me when she was 22...erhmm...actually i tot im fated to haf one child only coz i miscarriages 3x after my 1st. YESSS 3 times...so imagine hw devastated i was.
when i had my 3rd miscarriages, my eldest gal was 3yo+. b4 the miscarriage, I told her tat she will going to be a jiejie soon. She was so happy...bt eventually when i told her tat there was no bb in mommy's tummy anymore, she gave me the innocent puzzled face and asked me why?? I told her that coz bb has gone somewhere far far to play...she paused for a moment and said: never mind...it's okay...bb will come back some other days...At that moment, I cldn't control my tears anymore...my gal was my only console during tat period and i was so glad tat i still haf her. anyway, she was so right...those bbs tat i haf lost eventually come back to me when they had enuf fun 'elsewhere...after 3 miscarriages, i haf another 3 bbs...

Stephanie,
Fenugreek seeds can be bought? Where? I wana buy and give my MIL! Because she cooks fish and papaya soup for me everyday! Will die from Fenugreek overdose anot? XD I eat 9 caps a day...
[Phobia of what our kids may turn out right after delivery.]
I checked for everything! Because I was at the shop the time I was expecting and my HB was doing mini renovations... Drilling, hammering, spraying bla bla... What's more.. I'm a Hairstylist and I cut cut cut! I even forgot and cut a SMALL piece of paper on the bed.
[Leaky Fitti Diapers.]
I used Fitti. No leak if the gathers are pulled out properly... But if there is an EXPLOSION in there.. Tendency to leak is still there despite the precautions I take. My friend bought me Drypers WeeWee dry... I find it not bad.. Fits Kairi well... Will try Fitti again when I'm done with this pack and see if it's Kairi that grew, or the diapers fault. XD

phew..finally home with baby Kylie. But she's not discharged yet, we're on home leave, gotta go back once everyday for her antibiotic IV drip.
Rach
Kylie had fever for the entire night, and it came and went, highest peaking at 39 degrees, so the following morning i decided to send her to PD who told me babies below 3 months old with high fever definitely need to admit
At the hospital, they took blood tests, urine test, and drew liquid from the back spinal area to determine cause of fever. She's too young for medication (except antibiotics) so can only stay in hospital to observe until fever is gone, and cause of fever identified, in this case, UTI.
The thing is my elder gal also got UTI, twice somemore. I already keep her very clean, but still kanna. Maybe it's the genes...sigh
Tiring few days for me. now pumping, then gonna knock out after this
