Re: Breast feeding

gals.. dun pressure too much on breast feedin k.. as much as i wish my milk was pathetic so i din insist on total breast feed i do gave FM but i din gave up continue to pump every 3 hrly n my pathetic milk did increase gradually.. i seen many mummies stress themselve so much it affect their milk flow[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



Also breast milk is not free we mus take supp like maternity milk and fish oil but compare to the goodness of breast milk it nothing..



also i tink boobs size got nothing todo with milk flow.. some big boobs also gd milk supply[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



jia you all mummies[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



Re: Freestyle

mumies i cant confirm anythign at this moment..cos if my HB goin nex yr dun tinki can make a trip to US also n lookin at the US rate if u gals wanna get from spree jus go ahead k i dun wan to hold u gals up cos it will only be worthwhile if i make a trip to US myself n handcarry back but limited set also cos i got limited luggage size also... i can still get my HB to help to buy n ship back but i dun tink it will be any cheaper than spree...

 
Hi all, took me so long to read all post from morning till now...



Re gathering:

Isn't better wait till mid or late 2nd trim when all MS is gone n we are able enjoy ourselves? By then we compare our tummy more fun!



Re pram:

I hv 2 lucky baby pram, 1st 1 bought abt. S$129 at promo price, abit wear n tear Liao then happen saw the 2nd 1 at promo price S$79, but my son still prefer the 1st 1, giving away the 2nd to my sil who will due in March 11.... Thinking of getting a double seat 1 but worry my son dun wan to sit then waste... My son doesn't like to stay in his seat for long...



Re BF:

Agree that big size has little supply, I'm big size de but my supply is not as per my size lor... Summore I hv inverted nipples at my right breast so my son doesn't want to latch on.. I pump using manual tot to save $, pump till I turn sour also abit only... Plus I din have proper confinement pu tang, so my supply doesn't boost lor... The CL I engage for my #2 also mentioned if I want breastfeed must drink more pu tang like papaya fish soup... But she said if bb got jaundice then must reduce intake of ginger for first two weeks...



Re jellycurd from BP:

Piggy, it's nice!!! But to me it's abit too sweet wor... The testure not bad.... DH n me finish almost the whole tub just now.... Btw, the flavour I tried is strawberry, tml will try wen tou xue... *drooling*



Re bb fair:

I'm not going as I went for a few when my #1, always cannot get much thing from the fair leh... Further I hv most of the thing liao so no need to buy bulky thing, those wipe or bottle can always get from dept stor e when they hv sales...



Re bottle:

I used Tommy Tippee b4 but I find the bottle turn yellowish fast... Now using pigeon which I think is great will con't with this brand in future...

Sandy,

G'morning ladies...



Piggy,

Maybe beastmilk does not help so much with the pain but it will help prevent infection.. esp since there might be open wounds.. ya but I remember the nurses gave me a tube of lansinoh cream when I was in hospital.. It helped too..



I really don't think breast size matters.. but I hear some mothers take motilium (a drug that aids gut movement) to help increase milk suppy and they say it works.. I guess that is if you are super desperate... I think so long as drink lots of fluid and have a good diet should help bah.. But like what jojo said, no pressure.. take one day at a time...



jojo..

This is your #3!! You are good!! I feel so tired already with just 1 toddler and 1 growing in me..



Regarding medication,

Most medication will always say that it is unsafe for pregnancy since when they do drug testing, they don't test them on pregnant woman and children.. As it would obviously be unethical!!! So for the drug companies to save their a**, they will print that it is not safe.. this is to avoid lawsuits.. but sometimes, say for example, mother is really sick and needs it, the dr will see whether the pros outweigh the cons of giving the medicine to a pregnant woman..



Most of the old drugs are often used, like panadol, piriton.. cos they have been around for so long and many people have eaten it including pregnant women to deem it safe to eat.. but the newer ones, the numbers are not there to see whether it is safe enough.. and no one dares to risk it.

 
Did any of you 2nd time mummies do the post natal massage? How was it? I remember when I went back to my gynae for my 6 week follow-up, my dr told me I never do massage right? Cos still so flabby... Does it help?? Hehe!! Just wanted to know..

 
Gerry,

ya i agree no stress take 1 day at a time as long dun gave up we can still give our bb BM [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

i am not 1 tt drink alot 1 n i really make an effort to drink maternal milk/soup n water tryin to up my supply hahah n i tink the maternal milk helps a little[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



Morning Tweety..

 
Gerry,

the post natal massage is not really for the slimmin for they help to push the wind trap in our body out n push up our womb... slimmin r secondary.. they will help to bind ur stomach... n u urself mus leave it on ut body for as long as possible to have the effect... i tink it does help a little depend on the skill of ur massage lady..

 
Hey ladies, hope all are well....



Damn bz at work so can only log in now & then. Hope Vivi's case with MOM is settled!



Wanna ask all u mommies, esp those who have #1 or #2 or more liao, which is better ah, Baby Bjorn or Ergo baby carrier? Thing is, since USD so low, thought of buying some stuff online & save!

Hmm sometimes I also feel the crampy feeling but when I asked my gynae, she says as long as cramps without fresh red blood or very severe cramps that you cant tolerate, should be fine.

 
Tweety,

Hi Vivi, i oso got a bit of rashes on my lower back. It looks like mosquito bites but there are 4 or 5 of them together. A few days already...but still red...but luckily don't really itch. I suspected it is the stretch mark cream. After the rashes appear, i stopped putting on my back le, only put on my tummy.



Hi Enigma, the weather these few days were really hot. My friends were complaining on the facebook too.

 
vivi,

gd luck with MOM...i'm sure they can fight for u one![IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] dun worry too much k? [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



piggy,

yes..we hope together k?sometimes it's gd to bury myself in work..time does pass faster..

 
Thanks gals for your support.



Bearhugz I did not apply stretch mark cream at the back leh so I also dont know how come got rashes. YOu very hardworking wor I only bothered to put on the tummy. Not even the legs or the thighs.



Sometimes my back is very itchy...



Now I also dont know why I have this suan suan feeling at my lower abdomen area hope this is normal leh...

 
morning!



Good luck vivi for your MOM appointment...



I also go back rashes.... nv apply cream on my back oso... could it be expanding and stretching?



Yday nite also have bad cramps... i try not to move awhile it goes off.. think I moved to hard.. BB not happy! haha

 
Hi vivi, when do u feel the suan suan feeling? I always hv this feeling (even before getting pregnant). In the centre, at the bottom of the tummy. But i feel it mostly at nite when I'm turning on the bed and getting out of the bed. I checked with my gynae, he said as long as there are no blood and the pain isn't very bad, then fine.

 
Hmm Bearhugz like the lower abdomen area and the area where you mention and sometimes the feeling is like you dont go toilet for some time while your bladder is full....

Hope you understand what I am trying to describe hee hee
