whoofy : The massage lady gave me an ointment like ru yi you to apply on baby and also to massage him. As for u saying when ur daughter is hungry and will try to put her fingers into my mouth, my son also will do the same and i think it's called "Rooting". An indication tat they are hungry and wanted us to feed them! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

For me, it's hard to jot down pee coz dun really know how to see. Hahahaha.. Poo still okay coz is more visible! My boy's poo is yellowish, sticky and lump-like(like crab roe) Hehe.. How's ur girl's poo and also feeding time? My boy's feeding time is haywire lor.
whoofy : U can check wif Ida & i think she's also a nice lady like Mariam and there shldn't be any prob wif the payment!
Sometimes i also find myself "hard" to grab my boy's neck too. So afraid tat he will sprain it or what coz he suddenly turn or move!!! Guess, we are all of the SAME!!!

hi mummies... when you use your breast pump, how often do you sterilise it?
Is it ok to sterilise just once (in the morning), and for the rest of the day wash normally and air dry?

kath: Oh ok, thanks. I thought 8-10 times is a lot.
muffin: Oic. Oic. U need the rest after giving birth. =)
Lovie: I didn't take it down the timing. About 8 times a day. Usually I change his diapers before feeding him each time.

bbin: So you sterilise only once, and do normal wash for the rest of the day? I am also doing it, but not sure whether ok or not... After seeing tira's advice, i immediately went to sterilise my pump parts...hahaha...

Hi mummies!
Glad to see this thread back.
Sigh...my gal still refuses to suck on my breasts. She's rather impatient and once she knows that she cannot get much from sucking,she will turn her head violently away from my breast and wails. So now all i can do is to pump my BM out and give it to her via milk bottle. But i seriously wonder how much BM nutrients she's absorbing in because my CL mixes the BM with FM. I let her do that cause my gal might be used to the "sweet" taste of FM le. BM shld be tasteless right? Afraid she doesn't want to drink purely BM. Furthermore,everytime i pump,the amount is not enough for her. She drinks 80ml of milk each time and my BM is about 30-50ml on average only.
Currently i feel emo too. I think my in-laws are being too over-protective of my gal(their first grandchild). So over-protective that i feel irritated. My FIL even thinks i don't know how to carry my gal properly and he always "teach" me everytime i carry her. Super irritated with him!
Ah...sorry for the grumbles. I emo.
Anyway,hope u all have a great and prosperous Lunar New Year! =D

Wow thread is moving real fast that i cannot catch up!
Envy mummies who have supply>demand! My boy wants to drink every 2hrs, perhaps 100ml is not sufficient for him already cos i'd wish that he drink every 3 hrs instead. Sometimes after a wet diaper + poo, he cried for milk after an hr...imagine how to have sufficient supply after just 1 hr??? Me very stressed here expressing milk every 1-1/2 hrs and only get 80ml maximum and is not enough for him! It has been 3 wks but why my supply didn't increase alot ... hope to have more to pump out and store but so far can't!
portia,
I understand the stress that you are going thru thus that time during my 1st confinement, i also gave up BF eventually! But this time i'm still struggling, hoping to sucess and BF as long as i can... Really very tough, not enough sleep/rest, nipples swollen and painful, panda eyes now!
jgal,
Am going to order from Neo Garden too for buffet.

Bbin> same sins here..! But sarong later mths come in bah.. My CL keep assuting me my gal very clever juz try pacifier lor. Since i buy le n bb keep crying after most feeds, her pattern is like to suckle awhile den sleep. She'll push it out when done 1. Den I monitor her myself at times when my CL is not looking.. Looks true. Saw some info from baby centre.com, oso say it's a soothing effect. Guess we gotta monitor n control the pacifier lor Bo pian. Cos for me I oso dun wan her keep crying wait more wind lagi worse..!
Angel : can understand ur heart must be very painful .. But jus one thing to note .. Hope u dun mind..
In medical view, bb first poo is black, follow by green cos there's alot of calcium in bb tat can't be absorb at earli stages.. Den poo will change to yellow frm 3rd / 4th day cos liver is gradually functioning to help bb clear the jaundice. So u jus hv to monitor in future.. If bb has green poo again, it's not bcos bb got frightened (which all old folks always say).. It's becos there too much milk - calcium tat bb can't absorb ..

Guess why i have the time to log in at this time to chat? Cos i gave my baby FM just now at 9pm so he is so super satisfied and slept soundly till now. If i had latched him on just now, he would have wake up just now for feed and perhaps now i'm feeding again thus every nite also no time to do anything else...
I better go and rest now, expect that he would wake up at 12+ later for feed... Good nite all.

thanks fiionn, congrats to you too. thanks also tirabon, gyan and kath.
think i'm just a scaredy cat. i'm not sure if i will go through another c-section GA. hur hur. but if i were to do c-section, i would do it under GA! don't think i can do it half-numb like you, kath.
i called the clinic this morning and was told that my stitches are dissolvable too. *phew* my mum has been nagging me since i discharged to ask the doc abt the stitches but the clinic wasn't opened until yesterday. so so so nagging.
the binder is really useful. i'm only 2-3kg away from pre-pregnancy weight. it may be the breastfeeding and the binder or just the breastfeeding. heh.
