shihui, Dont worry, yr supply will recover. I pump extra hard to rebuild the ss. Thats the only time my MIL gave me the pork liver. No more pork liver for me from then onwards and my supply went up again.

shirley,
Lil bit of warm water is ok, as sporty mentioned as well. No worries
shannonbaby,
Wah, latch per hourly really 'shiong' ler! Can't imagine if I am in that situation!! Glad ur situation is better now...
shihui,
Maybe pump once every 2-3 hours, regardless baby latch or not. Pump at a fixed time/interval, maybe will help...
sporty,
Will definitely pop by this week, not that bad la, hehe. Just that the 'wait' is really looooooong lor! Looks like I'm gonna be induced again coz really got NO sign of labour at all up to date. Hopefully on Thurs checkup can request to induce already...dragged for too long ler! Else later X'mas cum wedding anniversary also cannot celebrate liao

haiz, i woke up at around 12.45am to pump. then set the alarm to sound off at 4am but just couldn't wake up when the alarm sounds off at 4. i only woke up at around 6.30am with engorged and leaking breasts. haiz...super lazy me lor.
jane, i saw your hotcakes in FB.
shannonbaby, confinement can be enjoyable without the interference of MILs, our own mums and sometimes hubby. sometimes, i just wish that they can leave me alone and stop interferring.
momoko, pat pat. dun get angry over your MIL. no point getting angry over this kind of xiao ren. just ignore her lor.
rue, my doc didn't specify the dosage for fernugreek. i just follow the instructions stated on the bottle - max two capsules per day. never heard of vac foc if it's compulsory leh.
now my baby dun like to latch on le. she's an impatient eater, want to down the milk fast fast and my breast is not a showerhead so she's super frustrated when i latch her on. she even grumbles while sucking my breast at the same time. when i give her the bottle, she happily takes it.

Jing Hui, jia you! My gf also pop at 41 weeks with induced as she totally have no sign of labour at all after 41 weeks. But her baby is big - 4.2kg.
dingdong, I love those times during my confinement when my MIL n hb went out, leaving my maid at home with baby n I. Lots of freedom to do what I want without interferring, esp my MIL loves to watch me latch baby on my breast. She can watch so close until almost banging on my boy's head already. Then will ask me qns like how I know he is drinking etc.

sporty,
The last time (#1) was induced coz I was hypertension at the very last stage of pregnancy, amnio level quite low and decrease in baby's movements. It was not overdue, but 2 weeks early! Induced at 38 weeks. So, to compare hor, the wait this time is really long lor! I was like expecting my gal's arrival since 38 weeks...

Ru Yun,
Haha, I also think my womb really comfy until my gal don't wanna come out yet! Enjoy as much as she can inside
Weight not known lor, coz never check the last 2 times during visit. But as of 37 weeks was only 2.5kg. So, is around 2.8-3kg the most...? The last doc/prof I've seen on last check up (last Thurs) said/commented my baby is on the smaller side compared to others, but is ok. So, I just trust the prof and shall wait until 41 weeks!

Shannonbaby and dingdong, think our mil and mums are concerned la....cos my mum also asked if baby is drinking or if she has enough or why she take so long to drink, etc.....cos I believe ppl in their generation are not used to BF and they see us and the babies like very poor thing, thus kept asking questions lor.

Jin Hui, yup, her baby is so big when delivered. Think max is 41 weeks according to her thus she induced.

sporty/funne - which ergo carrier u bought? i'm thinking of getting ergo sports but not sure if it's good.

Starrz, regarding the FM, maybe your girl doesn't like the brand that you offered her? Cos my baby's also not interested in the Nestle Nan we gave her initially...she will suckle, hold in her mouth and then spit it out. We switched to Similac and she has no prob with it.
gosh...have to chase my son ard the house while pumping...luckily my pump is portable! he always likes to di siao #2 when i am bz...arrgghh
funne, how was ur session with parent craft? have they resolved ur engorgement?
starrz, bb now are more sleepy...what the nurses taught me is tha wake them up to feed every 3 hrly in the day...from 12am to 7am, then feed on demand...
ru yun, 4kg is big lor...nvm la, now ur bb shd be 4kg liao after abt 2 weeks...can beef up bb now too
dingdong, what ur hb said was rite lor...mouth small nicer i bought the organic version of ergo...the cloth is softer...i think sports ergo, its more "hot" for bb becuz of the cloth used...

Today is Day 4 liao, by right no reserve in her body liao right, shld be rather hungry liao right... haiz.
