oh ya, I've a silly question....
if my breasts didn't expand much, would that mean I wouldn't have a lot of breast milk or is it too early to tell now? Coz' I dun find that my breasts have expanded a lot so, I'm having some doubts about spending so much to buy the Freestyle now...

Tweety,
wow... your fren really shen ah!! Hopefully, I'll have the milk bah... Sigh...
Oh, just to check with you ladies, after baby's bottles are sterilized, do you just keep it in the sterilizer till you need to use it or would you keep it in another box? if keep in another box, does it have to be airtight?

Moon,
If you are ok, I think it is best to latch on.. at least the first month.. Helps to build your supply.. Babies are designed to suck your milk out efficiently.. In the first month, if I were to pump, may not be much cos body still adjusting to your baby's needs.. And in general pumps aren't as good as baby in clearing block ducts and increasing supply..

moon: ya lor.. she got so much supplies that she gave my another friend's bb her BM lor... powerful!!! haahaaa...
Gerry,
okie...but some mummies dun like latch on or have difficulty latching on too, rite? hmm... do you think the following is viable:
1) latch on first
2) if got problems, get hubby to buy a normal manual pump and place order for Freestyle
3) when Freestyle arrives, then switch over
but hor, there's a possibility too that by the time Freestyle arrives, my supply would have dropped, right?

Moon,
Feel like I got blue black... Ya i think walk too much.. But if I don't move and sit in front of comp, also can be very painful when I get up.. Arghzz.. And when I tell my gynae, she just ask me to take panadol if cannot tahan.. It's normal.. If it gets very bad in trim3, then she might suggest asking me to buy some support band.. Sigh..

Piggy,
okie... just that I'm very scared that after spending close to $500, got no milk lor... ya, I wouldn't want to spend like tens of dollars or hundred plus to buy another pump and then, buy the Freestyle again too, like double loss like that...
Oh ya, have any of you heard anything about the Ameda Lactaline Dual Breastpump? think it's going for $299 at the Robinsons sale this week... is it good?

After baby's bottles are sterilized, do you just keep it in the sterilizer till you need to use it or would you keep it in another box? if keep in another box, does it have to be airtight?

ST,
how do I know if the breast is emptied? how long would baby take to drink? i know there's foremilk and hindmilk but how do i know which one baby's taking already? or is it after baby finishes, I'll have to pump to see if there's anymore? and hor, how do I know if baby is done? baby will stop suckling and go away himself/herself?
Piggy,
okie.... I shall 以你为榜样 and push myself!! Thanks!!
Sigh... it's my BIL, not Bro leh.... if Bro, then easy already....

Moon, Jtho,
I used the ameda for #1.. And I like it.. And I was pumping 2x a day when I went back to work and I had enough to feed my #1 and lots of bags in the freezer.. Until towards the end, when I slowed down, I had to throw a lot away...
Moon,
Ya can use hands, sometimes when I get very uncomfortable and I have no pump, will use hand to squeeze out the milk... Ya like what st said, best to empty the breast... sometimes the baby might not empty your breast.. and u might still have to pump.. When I was travelling with baby, I didn't bring the pump, i just latched on and as she was suckling, I would massage my breast to make sure got no clot..
St,
one left butt one right butt.. Maybe it is the way we sit or walk??
