not pain leh....she press n say oh got blood clot...after massage the clot really will come out.
She uses hot stone on tummy to rid the blood clot then massage, including the tummy. She also do charcoal burning to get rid of the water trapped in my body like sauna like that...
Then hot stone can use on boobs, ease any blocked ducts or engorgement... No need press n press...shiok
but I broke the stone into 2 today while applying on my boobs sobz

Summer mommy: don't worry u are not alone.. My boy is 14 days old hor drinking 75ml and sometimes cry every 1.5 hours then I latch him then another 20-40mins cry again for milk and down another 75ml...
To me I think if he drink Liao can zzz another 2-3 hours and not vomitting milk I think should be fine...
If milk ooze from his nose I will drag his feeding..
My #1 doesn't drink as much.. Abit scary

Hazel>my gal also sometimes like this. Drink 50ml can take up to an hr. If latch on can be up to an hour and throughout the 1 hr of latch. Got to burp her or rub her constantly to make her awake!
Summummy> if your boy didnt vomit out milk think should be okay ba. Some overfed bb may get stomach upset so may gets cranky.

Hi ladies doing confinement
Do u get to drink milk? I can't remember if I did last time.
2ks
U r very kuai, even wash hands use warm water.
Rach too
Brush teeth also use boiled water
During my first confinement I bathed in herbs but still washed hands in normal tap water.
Did any of use the dry hair wash spray? Can use rite?

Pixelpixie n 2Ks, me also follow your recommendations. Pump every 3 hrly for the night, day time, i will latch on and pump the other boobie after the latch... Boobies still damn rock hard!! Normal right?
Also, want to check if freshly pumped milk can we immediately stored into the freezer so should we chill in then fridge before storing into freezer... Me like no more bottles Liao.....

Hi 5! I tot he's realli drinking too much.. But no vomiting etc. He needs to be realli full to zzz. I rem my gal only takes 60ml when she's almost 2mths. They r sooo different lor. My gal has to be coaxed n carried all the time cos she was colicky. Didi jus drinks alot n Kip wanting more.. Scare me.. We tried to delay more feeds or make him zzz by giving him pacifier.. It doesn't work too.. Sigh..

Spyria, my next visit to Gynae will be this wed, if I haven't popped by then. So this wed Gynae will check again then advise next step ba. She did mention last week can induce if I'm impatient, but she is super pro-natural type so she prefers I wait. She says some of her patients overdue by 10 days lo, faints!!! Hope my case not like that... Plus my bb weight and water level all still alright to her so she is not pushing for me to induce yet. when is your edd and next visit?
Mummies who gave in feb, did u know that feb only 28days? Meaning our confinement shd end at later date. Gosh!! I just realize it today. Sianz. Thou my confinement will end on 24th march. Actually shd b 26th. I still have 6 more days to go. Haiz....

Won_mummy: but I tot confinement is count by days one? Wad does it mean end later date? Hw to count? When did u gif birth? =))
Butter: no choice Cos during #1 time, first few days no cl so dunno mah then end up my fingers all numb u know.. I also brush my teeth with warm water... Anyway it's a month thingy only
Tres: if the amount u pump out ok for u to store in freezer, why not? Unless if let's say u pump 100ml per pump , it will be quite wasteful to store in milkbags cos bags can take at least 180ml and more..
Then u must make sure both yields same temp then transfer into one milk bag to the freezer.

im still not popping out yet, still waiting waiting waiting
now im making a bet to all my friends, asked them to guess a date of the birth n whoever wins will get a prize from me just try to make the waiting game more "fun"
wed will visit gynae again, but so far he doesnt encourge me to induce. just let it natural, plus i also want to experience the water bag burst

audrey,
my nxt visit will be this coming tue, which will be my 39w2d checkup. but my gynae dun intend to drag it for so long if bb overstays. she did mentioned that once i hit week40 and bb is nt out yet, then will recommend me to induce the following day.
my current condition is the same as u, normal weight n water level still okie. so just have to wait and see.
its myself getting impatient, hopefully theres abit of dilation during the nxt checkup and see what she advises too then.
lets hang in there!!

Just done with pumping...
2Ks: I believe must pump after latch! Just my day time very irregular cos sometimes I wait for bb to latch, she either sleep past my 3hr interval or she takes v long to latch, plus need to battle with her cos she kinda reject my nipples at times. Then I feel so confused shld I pump out or wait for her to latch. But after latch I will pump. Now I will try to make day pump more regular to up ss! Sorry ah... I gan jiong spider easily & will get anxious & vex easily...
My hubby & elder daughter caught a flu, now so scare virus will spread in e hse! Hate it!
