Candy White,
How long have you give birth already? my milk doesnt really come in so soon also. Since the 7th day of birth, my milk only 70ml for whole day. Never give up. Make up those required with FM. Then slowly, the next day (8th), it increases to 100 and then next day... 100+...etc. Till the 13th day, I got 360 ml for whole day. Don't stress out over the quantity and give up. Just keep pumping. I do that every 3 hours. Hand express though get sore fingers, can empty the breast real well and once you empty it well, the milk quantity comes in fast - body prob thought you need more supply cos there is a demand for it. Plus no more engorgement also. Do not squeeze the breast ok? Just use your thumb to gently push the breast forward (towards the nipple direction) and then gently squeeze the aerola and the nipple. You can do it
PY,
Same loh... before that... her demand is only the teeny bit of colostrum mah. Now she demanding more, and with the short nipples.. sigh... cannot satisfy her fast enough.
Ewe,
What did you do with your breast???!!!!
How come red? OMG... cannot use force one. Will damage the breast tissues. Got to do it gently. Try the method I just mentioned to Candy... see if it works? Fingers soring is definite. Still trying to find a cure to it. Else if too sore don't know how to pump already. Yes, got to bend a bit. Use gravity to help mah. I do it while sitting on bed. Bend forward abit until the breast is sort of perpendicular to the bed.. then stuck nipple at the hole and start pressing. Same? I don't let her latch already lah... since she kept crying... and I also end up crying... Just live with the present method.
