xoxo: thanks! kelly's really good. she's so patient! so young and yet so good with the babies. cos my baby was really fussing that day and just refused to fall asleep initially.. glad i took up the package with her
glad to hear that your audrey is well enough to be discharged
what rotten luck to meet with such an incompetent nurse! if i were you, i'd pursue the matter to the end. it's people like these that give KKH a bad name!
and glad to hear that your milk SS is up again. hope you're coping well all alone. but knowing you, am sure you'll be more than fine
re diapers: am using pet pet now. since still waking up several times a night to feed and change, am using pet pet exclusively. once she sleeps through the night then use pet pet in the day and pampers active for night time - am not really doing much research on diapers la.. so just gonna do what i did with my #1 last time when he was on diapers.
jRRt: pus? i think the fastest way to heal is to actually get the pus to burst. i know it sounds gross and painful but that's what i experienced with adil la... like i said my BF experience with him last time got a lot of drama! i started bleeding badly after the first night at hospital. that's why i fully expressed BM all the way until he was about 2 months plus. then he became bigger, mouth stronger, head oso stronger so latch became better, and all that exclusive pumping for the first 2 months pulled out my inverted nipples which helped him latch better down the road too. then it got easier... BUT BEFORE that... it was hell! rem i told you i got mastitis twice???!! fever of 39++ leh.. in the car, on the way to clinic, every bump and hump was HELL! i wanted to die! on atibiotics so pump, pump and flush down. which is why adil was supplemented with FM for first month also. thankfully this time round, no such drama. pretty smooth sailing so far.. thank god! so you just hang in there! don't worry abt not being able to latch. i didn't latch adil for first 2 months and successfully did after, and we bonded just fine too. you'll be fine as well.
take care and take it easy yah?
siangjiao/jRRT: juggling 2 kids on my own is not always a bed of roses.. not always peaceful if you know what i mean. so no need to admire hor? keke but i'm still standing, and both kids are still alive, so i guess we're doing ok...? hehehe
astro: no wonder didn't see you around.. poor yu he.. and poor you. must be so exhausting. glad to know all's ok now and that you're both on your way to recovery. rest well, and take care.
i have that same guilty feelings when i look at adil now. so whenever ana sleeps i try to sayang2 him more lar. what to do... guess we need to learn to let go a little and once baby bigger a bit and don't need so many feedings a day, maybe things will perk up and get better..? hoping hoping...
PY: you're doing well.. just keep on latching when you can, and feed ebm when you can't. no pressure. soon everything will fall into place and it all becomes automatic and second nature.
tien: like i mentioned, don't feel pressurised to latch if you can't. sometimes when they're bigger latching on becomes easier leh. so don't worry too much over this lar. and even if cannot latch, ebm oso still bm. giving them bottles oso we can still bond what.. can still talk and play and interact so just take it easy ok?
bluesea: thanks
sunnyling: enjoy the time with your baby. i know how fun it gets when they start to learn to do social smiling and interacting. can't wait for my girl to start smiling liddat too!
re massage lady: i took aunty zainab after my first and 2nd birth. old lady - 67 years old. but she's good. at least i feel she's god lar. my waist went down from 42 to 35 after a week.
her no: 83850966. you can (if you want) let her know that you got her no from me. she knows me as sharifah from woodlands.
oops.. baby crying already! gtg... maybe continue later when she's sleeping again lar...
