(2009/09) September 2009 MTBs

mamato6js> ur boy how big only?? can sleep thru de nite liao?? so envy!! i tot earliest is like 6wks. haha. but i doubt mine can. i heard if u wan ur bb to sleep thru de nite, u must really keep him occupied in the day wor. but i dun haf the patience to occupy him de whole day =x

erms. hubby's colleague was telling me abt the nite clothes too. everynite she put on de dreamsie for her, den she'll know it's bed time. maybe i shuld buy a dreamsie for him to wear at nite. den he'll know it's nite time?

pamelia> den clean ur bb in de evening. now my bb bathe in de morning n clean up in de evening. dun think i wanna bathe him twice =p

flower4> i put on 14kg. manage to lose 13kg so far =p haha. actually mine jeans i think maybe not so tight? i was able to wear my prepregnancy jeans till i was abt 3mths pregnant? but nobody knew i was pregnant till i was like 4-5 mths pregnant if i nv tell them. cos my tummy started growing real big only after 5th mth =p

in fact first 2 mths i lost weight due to an infection in my gums, den ended up my whole mouth was swollen n i got no appetite to eat, plus fever on n off for a whole 1mth till i was finally cured -_-"

y cannot wear non nursing bra n clothings? juz wear la. unless u bring bb out tgt n wanna bf him ma. go office most likely find one room close door n pump? but seriously i haven manage to find any room. cos i will be moving office soon. stress. haven been to tat office before. dunno wat to expect there -_-

medela from usa dun haf local warranty wor. which is one reason y i din wanna buy. tat time i oso saw ar 485. but cos no warranty, so i went with de ameda dual pump instead

i oso wanna know how to make my tat line dissapear. hubby say tummy back to normal, except extra skin, got line n stretchmark -_-"

steph> i oso wanna know how u manage to make bb sleep thru de nite. really envious of such mums =)

rach> drink expired ebm, den shuld b lao sai? but their shit oredi look like lao sai. so how we know if it's shit or lao sai =x

faint. y u stock up so many S size diapers. keke. i oso still have abt 240 S size diapers left. but my boy is smaller in size. only 3.6kg now. n my left with mostly pampers which are bigger cutting. but y canot finsih? tot bb every wk use abt 60 diapers liaos. with my supply, 1mth will finish. doubt my than my boy is bigger den 7kg? at most he'll b 5kg =p

shelled> yeah. finally de tops have arrived. wonder if can get by fri, so can wear on sat for bb first mth party? =p

my house look more like minimart. i even have M size diapers liaos -_-" got 6pampers, 2mamypoko, 2dryper jumbo n 4huggies ultra -_-"

tat y when pple say dey buy me more diapers for gifts i tell them no thank you. cos my hm really no space for it liaos.

gina,
good good, hope your contractions set in soon and that you'll have a fast and relatively pain-free labour, if that's possible hee ...

gina and stephanie,
requested to add the both of you as friends on FB
 
HEHEE thanks!

gynae sms say go to kk delivery suite this am. -.-'' meaning i can sor there before 12noon hor? HAHAHA
 
Michelle
no lah, he sleeps thru but will wake up for feeds in between. but he wont wake up, will just cry then i feed then he go back sleep. its been like that for the past 1 wk plus.

Gina
all the best!!
 
flower4
I'm alone at home with bb most of the time too.. Have to juggle my time properly. How frequent does your bb feed? Mine wants to be fed every 1 hour, sometimes every half hourly these 2 days. I have no time to bathe and do other things. Wonder if it's cos I have no milk... but he's sucking whenever he's at the breast lei.
 
<font color="aa00aa">flower4</font> - I find that Pampers are thinner and even when wet its not thick.. Mamy Poko even when a little wet will get thick.. TMC uses Fiti and I find it quite good also.

I always very sneaky when changing his diapers when he's asleep.. lol.. super quiet and never turn on lights as well...

My boy is 2 weeks old today.

<font color="aa00aa">Michelle</font> - I'm just lucky... Last night was the 4th night he slept through... I'm counting my blessings...
happy.gif


He slept at about 9pm and only woke up at 7:30am this morning... even hubby was surprised.. hahaha
But I still didn't get much sleep cause slept at 3am after expressing milk, then woke up at 5:30am cause eldest son go school... then 7:30am wake up.. hahah tired
sad.gif


I think he fuss too much during the day time... I dun get much rest during day one loh.. keep crying and wanting to carry. If I carry him or latch him on and he sleep, once put him down on the bed, he will cry
sad.gif


So think day time he too tired... lol... evening time other than latching him on, I will give EBM also... so maybe means stomach full full then go sleep can sleep better? hehehe

<font color="aa00aa">sandwich</font> - added!

<font color="aa00aa">Gina</font> - Jia You!!! May you have a smooth and quick delivery!
 
stephanie:

michelle:

Hi mummies,

anyone knows if drinking caffeinated drinks while bfing has an effect on baby?

2 nights ago, my baby didn't sleep well, kept whimpering the whole night. I thought it could be the coffee I drank in the day. Last night, she slept much better when I skipped coffee. Not sure whether it was just coincidence.
 
mamato6js> lol. than my boy sleeps thru de whole day thru liao. only morning sometimes from 630am to 9am he will fuss. after tat is sleep thru n wake up for feed =x

tot ur milk so power. can let him no need wake up for 11hrs. den i must start doing something =p

itsy> it's growth spurt. my boy was like tat for the past few days. yesterday back to normal again. dun worry too much. he juz trying to help u up ur bm supply to suit him =p

stephanie> wah. but no matter how much my boy fuss in de day, even not sleeping, at nite de longest interval he manage to sleep thru is 4hrs. den he will wake up for his 20mins feed n go back to bed =p

i try yls before. find it soso only. =p

rach> haha. tat day i gained back 300g after stuffin myself full with so much food. tink now back again ba. but i nv weigh yet. maybe later =p

dunno if glamourmom can reach me by fri or not leh. c when shelled send out. but i cant make payment now. zzz

if my boy merlion, i too busy cleaning rather den looking at wat it looks like, only know is white color n definitely it's milk =x

i nv buy fr sprees. dun find it cheaper. u wait for supermarket promo, sometimes much cheaper.

mamijoan> kke. de youngest i heard manage to sleep from 9pm to 6am is 6wks old. 2wks. keke =p
 
michelle
haha.. i forgot to add my boy also sleeps thru the day!! his awake time is probably abt 2-3 hrs in the day only.

if he sleeps thru 11 hrs wo waking up for milk i will get worried leh! i sure will wake him up lor. he is too young to sleep thru 11 hrs.

mamijoan
yes caffein will affect our babies if we tbf. maybe thats why urs is so alert haha... maybe u try decaffeinated coffee?
 
Yesterday went to see my girl. Did not latch her, just bought ebm for nurse to feed her. was thinking dont disturb her so that can recover faster. another thing bother me is, would she be able to latch again after 2 days?
 
manijoan,
do avoid caffine during breastfeed. Will have some content in ur milk.

Jenifur,

What happened?

Rach,

I thought only I have so much diapers at home. So you are a diaper collector too! My sessions with Mona ended yesterday. Going to miss her and the chit chatting sessions with her. Tell her I miss her...hehehe. I still haven't lost my pouch though it became smaller. I think getting back my 24 inch waist seems almost impossible now.

Pamela

Tell me about insufficient sleep. I sleep only abt 1.5 hrs in total at night because I have to take care of two. 1.5 hrs is some more due to me giving up my 2 night milk expression sessions. I know my milk flow is going to stop soon because now I don't pump at night but as it is, I already have no rest, if I pump, then I really don't need to sleep already. Insufficient sleep made me lose my temper on my babies everynight when they fuss or drink their milk too slowly. I am afriad that I may strangle them one of the nights.

Shelled

So excited about receiving the tops. No hurry, send them out when u are free. I tried to transfer the remaining amt to you but seems like DBs website is down now. Will let you know once done.
 
bbq
yup the stupid dbs website is down since last evening... i had to keep trying a lot of times b4 i finally get it working lor...

sarah> depends wor. actually latch n dey feed for u, spend abt same amt of time. so y dun latch n bond abit with ur gal?

connie> i took sweet secrets package. no min. but 100bucks free delivery n with 12 boxes n abv, dey do printing of bb photo on de cake =p

milkyway> keke. thanx. i tok to shelled myself liaos =p

jenifur> wat happened to u or jed? are u ok? take care k?
 
<font color="aa00aa">mamato6Js &amp; Michelle</font> - No leh.. my other kids never like that... only my eldest boy slept through the night after 1 month old. Should I get worried? But when he wake up or before he sleep at night, I will give him more milk.
 
<font color="ff0000">Michelle></font>

<font color="ff0000">bbq></font>

i also told her i'll miss her..

hahaha..if she got clients in yishun she'll drop me a call if she can squeeze.....
its pretty hard.but she'll try.. keke..:p

she's very nice to talk to hor?? every session with her make me laugh like mad...
she say u very good liaoz hor..dun complain.. please...24inch waist!!!!!!!!!!! thats my primary sch waist maybe..
hahaha... u are a mom of twins leh.... slowly la....

do more sessions with her?? book another 5 sessions like next month or something?
sure got effect de..
i already done 10... so will just do slimming massage for maintence and lose more if i can.. hehe..:p

thats why a good pump is very impt... now with my medela freestyle, i take 18min to clear both sides..sometimes faster...
before i can reply the forum, my breasts are empty..
u still using a single pump??
do get a dual one... then can save time......
so now i finish pumping, i linger ard to finish online then i go sleep in the wee hours.. hehe.. :p
somehow.. my supply also like dropping.. my highest was 200ml for a full pump..
now only like 100-120ml...
but enough for nite feed and day latch..so i dun bother la.. think body adjusting to the demand loh...
 
Stephanie

I tried giving my babies more milk so that they can sleep through the nights but they refuse to drink more than what they usually drink.
 
Rach

I want to continue so she will keep me posted if she comes by my area. Nothing is fixed yet.

I have a dual pump but i always use one side because I need to massage the breasts as I pump to increase the amt of bm I can collect.
 
Rach> wow u almost lost the kgs tat u gain...me since the last check up w gyane..have not go weigh....(..tummy still big big..tis 2 days MIL no cook..being eating moon cakes and junk food...ai....
 
Harlow gals

Someone told me that u all miss me leh. How're u doing? me have been a bit sian to come online, coz busy with BB, then MIL like letting go &amp; letting me cope by myself. So a bit tired.
 
Just found some info on coffee and BF on kellymom.com. Guess I have to stop drinking coffee until I stop bfing. Haiz, cannot control leh. Sometimes still need to sip my mum's coffee.
 
<font color="119911">Michelle</font>
Growth spurt? Mmm... I tot also maybe he's just sucking for comfort and not really drinking milk. Any idea how to differentiate?

<font color="119911">bbq98</font>
I'm using a dual pump too, what I do is "hold" up the pumps using my nursing bra.. dunno how to explain, you try experimenting lah. But I mange to secure the pumps with nursing bras, leaving my hands free to massage my breast.

<font color="119911">gina</font>
Jia You! Waiting for your story!
 
stephanie> abit too early tat ur boy can sleep thru. i worried =x

rach> ya. shelled say will send mine out first. she say she have mine address. not scared i run oso -_-"

now i nv read newspaper, so wun know when they having sale wor. anyway i really alot of diapers liao, dun need more at least for now =p

sometimes i online while latching or when bb asleep lo. but most of time bb sleepin. he dun latch very long anyway =p

shanice> lol. seriously i dare not drink mine milk =x

jul> lol. still can come online when bb sleep ma
 
<font color="aa00aa">Michelle</font> - Wah... like that I call ParentCraft and ask.. lol.. see whether I should bring baby to PD or not...
 
Just called Parentcraft... the lady say let baby sleep cause since he is awake during the day, pee and poo well.. only at night can sleep longer.. she say just feed on demand and no need to wake him up.. phew...

But I will be going down to ParentCraft soon cause I suspect I got block ducts so supply is low and I have lumps in my breast...
 
Hi Mummies,

May I know how often do you express ur milk out? I express my milk 3 times a days (interval of 5-6hrs). Each time can express abt 240ml of milk. Do u all think I shld pump every 3hrs instead to maintain the supply? Cos I heard the more frequent we pump, the more milk we will have.

And also anywhere to know more abt storing of breastmilk?
 
mummies do u all tend to get hungry everytime after breastfeed?how to control on diet while breastfeed?i'm trying very hard to lose back all the inches.
