Adelynn & Lemon Tee>> Dun worry, just continue to pump as usual (i.e. frequency and duration) and drink lots of water. I'm sure your supply will go back up! On my side, I'm trying to reduce supply...but no success yet! I'm prone to breast infection, so I have to take this very slowly...
I thought the instruction from Pigeon steriliser of the how to descale sterilizer is to use lemon. Just squeeze half a lemon on the metal plate and leave it for half hour. Then just wash with tap water will do. Safe and leave a very nice lemon smell. If you do this every week, don't really need to do thorough descale with vinegar. BTW, i only descale every fortnight. But now, i stop sterilising liao. I think its good to expose them to some level of germs since they are already on solid and putting everything into their mouth.
Hi mummies, need your advice. how do u all feed your babies? Do u put bb in bb chair, walker or carry & feed them semi solid food? Sorry for the trouble & thanks.
Hi sporty confirmed 2 pax. Thks!
Hi bidosoh- I also used lemon juice to descale. But don seem to have much effect. Maybe coz I seldom descale. Probably got to descale more often.
Hi Adelynn & Lemon Tee - my ss also drop to quite low. Now BM can only make up 2 feed max per day. The rest substitute by FM n cereal.
Hi mbj- hope ur baby doing fine & getting better
Hi Chen ma ma - congrat!

Rainz, I put my baby in the high chair when feeding her. At my mum's place, we will place her in her walker since there's no high chair there. My baby doesn't move around in her walker during feeding time. Even if she is full or distracted, she will just look away instead of moving away.
Hi Ashley-Morn! Thanks for ur reply. I was thinking of putting her in walker. Which is easier to feed? high chair or walker?
Hi adelynn-Morn! Thanks for ur reply. I put her in bumbo seat but my girl will bent her body backward! Then her body almost out of the seat.so thinking if must buy high chair for her since GSS now.

rainz - yes i agree. as they get better with their motor skills & smarter, they know how to get themselves outta the bumbo seat.
IMO, a simply high chair would be sufficient, not too fanciful cuz it serves a basic need. I have a ikea high chair and pre prego ( a gift) and for the price difference, the ikea high chair seems more worth it

Morning mummies,
I'm also thinking of getting a baby chair but I'll need a foldable one as my MIL makes noise if it takes up space...

Re: High Chair
My high chair is passed down from my elder one, its fisher price, very sturdy and reliable till now! hahahhaa...BUT, i find it taking up too much space at my place, i hardly fold away as i used it daily...
My friend use ikea type, looks good and very economical! But can't fold away though.

Woah! Seems like this thread is evolving very fast!!
For mummies using NUK Latex teat, can I check how long can 1 teat last? I've been using NUK latex teat for almost 4 months now, it appears that the teat gets harden very fast and my gal has difficulty sucking. No milk flow!! And after a while, she gets tired and refuses to drink anymore!!
It seems that the air vent cannot open due to the hardening and thickening of the rubber. How can we prevent this? I thought it's the steaming of the teat, so I dun steam sterilize the teat anymore and use hot water to rinse before use. But still the same after a while. So fed up. I change teats almost every 2 weeks now. Very expensive leh...
I tried changing to silicon one and tried pigeons teats, my gal just refuses to drink. Sigh...
Anyone shares the same experience??

adelynn, when you going?
what's TH?

Rainz, I personally find the feeding chair is much better for feeding compared to the walker. We are using the Ikea high chair - highly recommended cos it's cheap and easy to clean! Plus it is quite sturdy and safe.
I've long returned the bumbo seat to my friend (who loan it to me before I popped) cos my baby hates to sit in it. When she was 4 months old, she would arch her back and try to get out of it whenever we put her in the seat.

Peipei_I am using NUK latex teats...better than the silicone ones as its softer. I do not steam it as I notice after doing that for a few days, the teat got a bit sticky and hard. So normally after each feed, I will just wash it and throw it into a cup of warm water until the next feed is required.
I change the teats every 3 to 4 weeks. Have tried a few other brands but I think NUK is still my prefered.

Chenmama - valerie is so pretty! Good luck on sunday!
I never descale my phillips sterilizer ... oops. good to have this forum I think! lol
Regarding high chair- I am using the ikea one. Quite good, sturdy yet cheap (only about $25). Can buy a table top for the chair too (only $4!). Also if you r baby is small, you can get a cushion that goes around it for more security.
peipei- I tried the nuk latex teats too before - and usually cannot sterilize or it will get hard. I am using avent now.

ayukie, i know silicon lasts longer, but my gal refuses to take that!! she was using avent since birth, but when she reached 3 months, she refuses to take avent anymore. so i got no choice but change to NUK latex.
EASTgal, ya, that's what i do as well.. but the teat still become hard leh... though i like it soft (my gal too), but changing every 2 weeks is very siong! expensive leh, one teat is $3.50!!! every month i need to spend $7 just on teat... more expensive than the cereal!
1st time mummy, i wish my gal is willing to take avent again... i have so many avent bottles, but all cant use... trying to switch her back to silicon teat, but she doesn't want... sob sob... my gal so high 'maintenance'.
