hihi, how do you guys lose weight? I have not lost a single kg after giving birth. Don't know what happened to me. I do not take junk food but rather healthy food since i am breastfeeding but i do not understand why.... *so sad and depressed*
Anyway... would like to seek some advice from mommies here. My baby is getting very cranky lately. And i realise it is because he wanna suckle. It is not because he is hungry. He relies alot on me to suckle to sleep. This has been a problem the last few days and i am getting worried. Does any mommies here also encounter such problem? How can i resolve it?
I will be returning back to work soon and i am afraid that the caregiver will have a hard time taking care of him since he will cry very very badly whenever he has the needs to suckle.
My hubby doesn't want to give him pacifier and feels that i am giving in to him too often by allowing him to latch whenever he cries. He feels that i should stop doing that.
How how? Any advice?

JP,
my baby's on Enfalac. but she only poos every 2-3 days but not constipated. Her PD said Enfalac is like that, dun poo every day. as long as poo ok, then ok liao lor
keropi,
dun think it's those olive oil for cooking. those that can be used for removing makeup, as moisturiser. usually they're displayed at the beauty/face care section of supermarkets. baby oil also can. apply on the cradle cap for like 1 hr to loosen them, then shampoo off the excess oil. i also use Dentinox cradle cap shampoo - effective on my baby
Sito,
wow! you manage to lose so much weight? the wonder of breastfeeding!
Phy,
my gynae says that as long as you're breastfeeding, to continue taking iron supplements. she said the milk is as good as what the cow eats. haha!
Eliss,
think it's 6 hours? not sure but i think i read it somewhere. why not you do an experiment? freeze it then leave it in the insulated bag, then start the timer
babycoco,
only 3.5kg? wah! you must had been really strict with your diet when pregnant

So envy you girls that can lose so much kgs after birth... my situation worst than cheese84...gain alot during pregnancy....now still left 15kg of fat struck in me [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]
Pacifier - I give it to my boy although I know is better not to but I think sucking pacifier is better than sucking his own finger (he had a habit of putting his mitten into his mouth if i didn't give him pacifier)
As for suckle to sleep - my friends bb girl till now still have the habit of waking up in the night just wanted to suckle to sleep (she 7mths now) however i heard from her that she will only do that when she is around... sometimes when her mum help her to look after for a night...she didn't wake up to suck...maybe baby can smell/know it...

jolin,
Maybe can try giving ur bb pacifier? As for weight lost, after giving birth, by right should straight away lose the weight of your bb + placenta + those body fluid or tissues? After giving birth, i straight away dropped abt 7-8 kg.
babycoco,
Wah only 3.5kg! So now you have "negative" weight. My aim is to loose the 2 kg left + another 4 kg to go to my ideal weight. Have to be discipline man. But breastfeeding makes me so hungry!

My baby is 2mth old. He is born small and so i do not lose much weight after giving birth. And furthermore, i gained back the weight during my confinement. Now cannot go on diet since i am breastfeeding but kind of worried how to shake off those extra kg...
Ya, i am thinking of pacifier too. Will need to discuss with my hubby.
Keropi, is your friend still breastfeeding? What if i have stopped breastfeeding and my baby still wants suckle to sleep? Continue to let him suckle despite there is no milk? sigh... i feel so "fan" over this...

Reading fm ur post mks me deduce ur boy wants smthg to suckle on. If u want to break e habit of suckling on u, u can try pacifier when he wants to slp. Other times dun give him so that he dun rely on it.

sun_tan, ya, ya, breastfeeding makes me soooo hungry too. now i have to eat 5 meals, breakfast, snack, lunch, tea time, dinner. i've never eaten so much in my life.
ica, no lah, i wasn't strict with my diet at all. but i realised something, eating pasta doesn't make me gain weight. i was craving for pasta almost every day when i was pregnant. and now when i eat pasta more than 3x a week, my weight will drop. amazing right? i love pasta, hahaha
jelly, i tried to give my bb pacifier, but she hates it, spits it out and then cry like we're giving her poison.

Cherry,
mine can lift up her head by 4 wks. So far 45', not yet 90'. Ya, like lasery said, hv more tummy time. I read that it's becos of SIDS, babies are put on their backs to sleep (used to be on tummy), so reflexes such as lift head, roll over, etc. takes longer to develop

Atomickitten: I will carry her by her armpit >>> I will sit facing her, with her butt facing me, then put my hands under her armpit and lift up (her head will be tilting front) and QUICKLY put her on my lap while my stomach blocks her head from tilting back since the head still quite wobbly. The other way is to just turn her around until she's laying on her back then carry her. =D

Mummies may want to give barely water to your babies who are suffering from constipation. I did that and my bb boy pooed. Asked pd he says barely water is ok. My mil says must give China barely, holland one will induce phlegm.
Mummies may want to try. Remb to give in small qty I gave only 30ml.

Have anyone introduce pillow to ur baby? Or when can we let them slp on a pillow?
As for lifting their head, hmmm I nvr ever tried placing bb on his tummy. I don't dare. Hehe. If like that issit he will take longer to learn to lift up his head ?

Red bb,
Yes barely water. My boy didn't want drink milk the other day n my mum Thoth maybe he is too heaty so gave him abit of barely water ended up he pooed a lot. So whenever he constipated I'll give him that. So far so gd.
Pd wanted to insert pill in bb ass but I told him barely water works for my bb so pd says to give barely then.

redbb - 2 to 3 days never poo is ok... I bought my boy to see a doc when he didn't poo on the fifth day... the doc say unless didn't poo for 4 or 5 days then consider constipation... but he does say my boy lazy to poo cos that's nothing wrong with his stomach...so maybe u can try using a cotton bud to apply some lubricant to his backside to help your bb to poo.. that's what the doc do to my boy & it works... unless u try liao he still didn't poo then go see a doc lor...
