How come membrane will curl up? (Medela n00b mah.) And I thought you ordered new shields liao?!
<font color="ff3399">bernice</font>
What you're experiencing is like me lor. How long have you been using the Ameda? Mine started out not too bad, then started getting less and less effective over the course of 2wks. Until I was almost tearing my hair out!
I always pull out the valve at the round end instead of following their instructions of pulling on the "thick sides". That way, CONFIRM won't tear it, cos I'm not even touching the valve!
Just kaypoh-ing abt the slings... Pupsik for the win!! MIM's buckle really takes quite some practising to get used to it. But it does have more cloth for boob coverage if you intend to BF bb in the sling. Hope this helps.
<font color="ff3399">rach</font>
The white piece is the membrane lah! It's yellow meh?? Why you all say yellow huh?? The yellow piece is called the VALVE.
Seriously if you wanna count BF needs/accessories then I think..... ok, i dunwan to think.
Otherwise later I feel guilty sia. The total cost surely already dunno how much liao!
<font color="ff3399">Pamelia</font>
This time you ask wrong person liao. I am pumping n00b, remember?? But personally what I think is, maybe don't need to sterilise lah, but at least also must wash?? After pumping all the BM dried up inside the funnel, not gross meh?? Will turn crusty leh!
<font color="ff3399">Steph</font>
Pok gai is sibei jialat liao. It's the ULTIMATE pok!
<font color="ff3399">bbq98</font>
Oops.
Hope you're not offended.
But mine hor... when I didn't need it then it made so much milk until it gave me so much agony. Now I need more then it LL only gimme this kind of amt. Not sia suay meh?
<font color="ff3399">momoteh</font>
I don't believe so. Don't think it refers to breast size specifically, but more of the number of efficient milk ducts and possibly the size of milk ducts? Cos I do know of mommies who have very small boobs (and I mean VERY small) who have tons of milk, and mommies who have boobs larger than their heads but can't up supply regardless of what they do.
<font color="ff3399">mampoko</font>
Underwire not really advisable for early BFing moms? Maybe when bb turns 4-5 mths then it's more ok to use. Cos if your boobs swell up while you're wearing the bra, the underwire will press against your ducts and cause bruising. Thereby leading to higher risk of blocked ducts, mastitis, etc. Just FYI.
I personally endorse Glamourmom nursing tanks and Bravado nursing bras (especially the Original Nursing Bra). Mothers En Vogue also quite affordable and comes in various designs if you're looking for non-tanks.

the medela membrane is worse than the ameda membrane! lagi easier to spoil. mine kaputs after 3 weeks.
btw medela also doesn't clear my boobs leh. porb not possible for pump to clear boobs. bb supposed to be the best.

the white membrane lor. so soft n delicate. curls up easily, n once it curls, no more suction liao.
er.. spare parts not from spree meh?
pam
parentcraft consultant advised to sterilise every time when bb is below 3 mths old. but guess lots of mummies dun do that, n it seems ok.

itsy
I used to feed him every 90ml every 2h to control his reflux.
Then I progressed to 100ml (sometimes 105ml, 95ml) coz I lazy to measure properly n to try to stretch timing..
These 3 days, he has been taking 110 - 115ml (sometimes 120ml) every 2.5h, or 3h is he's asleep.
Just these few days only, I notice he has been taking less n less at nite. Tdy's the first day he stretched 7h wor!
I shall try to give him 120ml starting from Mon, see if he can take it without puking

Shelled,not offended lah. I think u are too stressed now that's why lesser milk. I used to think I have to produce for two and I had miserable output. Now that I pump for leisure and only 4 times a day, my total output for the day is about 2 to 3 times more. Was telling husband, the milk comes just I was intending to stop bfeeding. Argh!
bbq
Yup, he was 2.6kg at birth, n 5.5kg at 8 weeks. Now he's 11 weeks n he's 6.xkg liao. Arms can break from carrying him
Thanks for the compliments
I think he's just very round. Round eyes, roung nose, round mouth, round body 
Pam
Hmm.. true lah, but seriously hor, I pump abt 5-6 times a day, but my supply doesn't dip. In fact, it seems to be increasing a little bit bit *strange*
rach
Harlow! Me waiting a while for my pumpset to sterilise & to warm up EBM for Sam.

momoteh reporting too!
shelled:
oh, the breast capacity i'm referring to got nothing to do with breast size (or cup size). It says something like the mummy with bigger breast capacity takes a longer time for the breast to get filled up and to feel the same engorgement as the smaller capacity mummy. So it's not accurate to compare output per Xhrs basis??

good morning!!!
<font color="ff0000">PAMPERS LEAKED</font>
on my girl TWICE last nite..
once before she abt to sleep... she was latching on from 10.10 - 1045pm and suddenly she was struggling and stretching and finally she screamed...
i tot what happened..my boobs again??
then i lift her up, my NEW BEDSHEETS ( i just changed yest morning.........) has a patch wet wet... kaoz!! then i changed her..and her pyjamas all wet too!!!
this morning when i was trying to latch her at 4am, same thing..she cried..lift her up...her pants wet again...........
but i discovered early.. no wet patch on bedsheets....
but...why Pampers leaked???
I was using the 12pcs of sample packs (4pcs x 3 pkts)..and that was the last few pcs left...this morning i changed her to Huggies M liaoz..
My girl is officially on Huggies M size on 7 weeks 6 days.. tmr is 8th weeks liaoz...
And Pampers S is soo huge for her can....
now i understnad why those using Pampers still using S...
i compared Pampers S and Huggies M..they are almost same "height" when u dun open it... in fact, Pampers S a bit longer than Huggies M..
But after i changed her to Huggies M... i felt more secured, though the tapes overlapped...means her waist still slim and small la. hahaha.. but the thigh area looks snug and good... but makes me worry too..if she'll outgrow M soon as well when her thigh gets bigger..
Pampers no have thigh prob coz its so wide and big....
like the salesperson says, Huggies is Bikini cutting, high up on the thigh.. Pampers is old grandma panty cutting..wahahhahaha.........
okay.. i'm being bo liao here...
<font color="ff0000">Pumping Yield</font>
kaoz.. i last latched my girl at 1010pm.. i pumpede at 5am, after 7 hours..and with at least 5 hrs sleep.. i only have 100ml!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??
Shelled, my boobs took a break on sunday too.. sob sob...

Good morning!
I think the samples are "old stock" leow.. i compared new ones and the samples i had, the yellow indicator lines are much fainter. But... diapers got not expiry date de hor???
Yesterday morning my boi while latching gave a loud poooohhhh. After his 'meal', my mum helped to carry him up while i got ready to prepare his bath water. Then i saw 2 small patches on the bed and the position dun seem like leakage from my breast or from his mouth. I bent down to smell and told my mum, "kanna sai". Then.... I looked up and saw the poo stain on my boi's shorts! It's really "sai" ah~!!!!

Hi all,
Good morning!
Think I dozed off in front of my desktop last night ard 10plus. Just woke up ard 5.30am to latch bb and pump.
rach,
My bb initially got greenish-yellow mucus. After sucking out for her and latching her more frequently, she got well after 4 or 5 days on her own. Guess breastfeeding helps.
pamelia,
Really hats off to you.. can still work and bf bb. Think I'd have broken down if I were you... Do take good care and take short breaks in between work. My grandma always says a woman will get all sorts of health problems when past 50 if don't take care in the first four months after childbirth.

Last time i pump half an hr can get 80ml but these few days i pump almost 1hr only 40ml n I see like only have 1 or 2 sprays of milk coming out when i pump instead of 4-5 sprays. Yesterday I drank ALOT of fluids n let my daughter latch more then pump every 3hrs..so far for e past 2 pump sessions can get abt 55-60ml..
Pamelia,
Wow! U r a hairstylist? I havent had my hair done since i got pregnant with my 1st kid..now seriously in need of a haircut.. Where's ur salon?
Stephanie,

re:Ameda
I used Ameda for my 1st child. Initially it was gd but after 4mths,I felt e suction was not strong enough 4 me..e valves tear very easily. Infantree says that e valves shouldnt b sterilised.. N if u do,u gotta chg ur valves regularly..
Pam,
Ur hubby never let u take ML ah? Poor thing.. Rest whenever possible..

Wah! Sam is quite chub also leh!
I intend to make Hubs give K EBM so can slowly reduce his night feeds. Since he latches all the time, also dunno how much he drinking... Just now pumped first thing when I woke up cos right boob ROCK HARD and sibei painful. Then immed ask Hubs to give that to K cos his last feed was 4am. Drank 130ml, wasted 20ml. Oh well.
Sounds like Sam is gonna sleep thru the nite soon! If my bugger wake up hor, he won't just look ard then go back to sleep lor! He skips at least one feed everyday, but it's usually the feed between 6-8am. I'd much rather he skip the one in the middle of the night. Oh welllll.

Actually is mai hiam then my supply is not bad liao lah. But I agree, stressed = less milk. In fact, if I try pumping when I'm stressed, my letdowns refuse to come at all! I end up pumping air for ages. So since I found out, I always try to eat some icecream or whatever that makes me happier, then watch tv while I pump so I get distracted. Otherwise sibei jialat!

Hahahahaha You still can memorise Glamourmom slogan arh!??!
Speaking of Glamourmom, I emailed PrettyMums on my payment for Yummie Tummie and the registered postage for both orders. She don't reply email one??
You mean to say Freestyle has NO MEMBRANE AT ALL?! So does it mean that there's no parts that will break and require replacing? Hmmmm if like that maybe I also want a Freestyle!!
My hubs is gonna kill me.
My uncle stayed over last nite mah, not very convenient for me to pump. He relocating to HK and flying off later today. No place to stay cos he ended his apt rental on 31 Oct, so had to move out and sleep over with us lor. Cos I didn't pump, wake up my boob machiam tio langah. Only left boob was ok cos latched K ard 4am.

So it's not just me?? The Ameda really has weak suction? Are yours all the BPA-free version also?

rach,
I'm a naughty mum who likes to disturb bb when she's asleep.
I'll use corners of hanky or facial cotton to tickle her nose till she sneezes. That's when the mucus will show and can use the aspirator to suck it out. At least, this'll clear the block and won't damage her nose.
Pamelia,
Get the bottoms first lah.. If still have spare $$, then buy the nursing T. I've also spent more than $3k recently buying lots of stuff, such as clothes, grocery and baby's things. So, don't wanna end up broke, have to consider carefully.
Okie. Me gonna catch my noon nap after pumping. Going to Centrepoint tonight to shop and eat.
Got to have a booster nap. See lah.. think I'm a bad example... Talk about budgetting and I'm going to spend some more. Hehe. Think I'll be like Stephanie soon - pok gai. Haha.
