Preciousbabi, nope .. not yet. Normally, Dr Cheng will only offer package only after the 20th week. Each gynae works differently. Anyway, not much of a diff. After the 3rd month, check up is once a month. So during the 4th month, you pay the max 200 and the subsequent month, will be the detailed scanning with the package offered to you. If u buy the pump, you dun open up first. After your delivery, you hv 1 month confinement. 2-3 days later, your milk will start to flow in if you can latch on your girl successfullly. From there, you will definitely know whether you hv enuff milk or not. But remember must latch on, and the supply deiniftely be there. Just now, went to my girl's classmate hse. The mummy also just gave birth. Wow.. She fed the baby from the breast and you can even hear the baby almost choking becos flow is very fast and supple. So you must contsantly latch the baby on. Demand = supply
Jolin, you are right! 2 is enuff for me. After going thru this round of severe MS, I feel that age is catching up with me. No more energy for the 3rd one. Close factory..

Our first baby, u try to see your friend hv the manual pump with the bag or not. I was left with tht one. So now I only need to buy the pump. Actually, you can just buy any cooler bags off the shelf and get ice packs and that will do. I wanted to buy the medela single electric as it costs abt 150+ but very troublesome as i need to pour the milk from the bottle to storage bags or bottles. For Avent, you can take out the bottles and close the sealed cap and store in the fridge. Not much of contact with the air. And let-down is good as to emptying the breast. However, if you considering about the Avent and Medela, you can get Avent at abt 480 - 490 US set, completely new. Medela seems heavy. However, you might want to try Ameda which is more economical. I will just get Avent as I will be using the steriliser and the bottle warmer. Hope the exhibition can sell everything in a bundle package.
Trinket, my girl is coming 4.5 years old.
Valerie, aiyoh.. u dun need to emphasis ONLY 1 pimple. Make me go green with envy. Luckily I m using Body Shop Tea Tree.. Just now scolded by my gynae. I told him tht the internet mentioned tea tree is not good for pregnant women. And so is Tiger Balm and those medicated rubs. So he shot 1 statement in my face and kept my mouth shut. "Maybe what you need to stop using is the internet and not all the stuffs you mentioned".. Hehe.. My gynae like tht with a sense of humor?
