For those mummies tat hv popped #3 baby, wld u organize full mth party for him/her still?
bbpoohfamily - exactly!! as if there is a meter somewhere at bb's body that we can tell bb is full or not! what nonsense..bb auto dun want to drink, what can we do?? haiz..and she everyday also tell us to give her fm when i finally got enough supply for her. dunno what she thinking. she kept saying that fm is better than bm. best part, she tried to psycho my parents that bm is not good. and she always got things to talk back one. haiz..this CL of mine, everyday also got new stunt. i also fully utilising the CL so that i can rest more. can't imagine what will happen once my hubby goes back to work. now, at least got 2 ppl sharing the nonsense from her. after he goes back to work, i gg to take all from her. haiz....
sh.... - try to muster some courage to bring her out. step by step and take it slowly..maybe try to bring her out and come asap?

I just got discharged. Bad day.. Broke down in
Hosp jus nw. Couldn't control my bladder again n the min I got out of bed, all the urine poured out n I was unable to stop it at all. I wet the whole pad, whole bed n floor!! Cry! Tdy is day 3 after delivery n I still cannot ctrl. M I suffering fr incontinence?
Next hubby told me bb's hearing test failed tdy for one side n i lost it again. I was having alot pain on my backside tear wound n now this..I think the nurses saw my teary eye n told me mayb there's liquid or wax inside so retest again nxt mth [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]
Now dischRged Hm, hubby said bb vomited milk with some blood stains n suspect the blood is fr me this morning cos breastfeed him n there's blood coming out.
After vomiting, my bb seems v tired n he couldn't wake up like that! His last feeding was at 8.30am one side for 15 mins n 9am for the other n unlikely I hv milk now for him so he shld b hungry by now. We heat up milk brought Hm fr hosp n he refused to wake up even if I teased his mouth with the teat. Hubby said he looks weak n like cannot open eyes like that so bring him bk hosp again.
Suspected we duno hw to burp him properly so he vomited cos everytime we burp him, no sound came out. But hubby is v worried m feels past 2 days he Kept crying n so active, y tdy so unusually quiet. I hope nthg is wrong w him.

Sh,
wa so fast, ur bb already 1 mth. I oso thinking wan to shave bb hair on 1st mth as well. But will do the ta mo bi as we did for #1. Both of them have lots of hair. Hee, u can opt for them to come to your place then dun hav to bring bb out.
Evie,
I initially supplement with FM then when my bm supply is sufficient, i stopped the FM. So now bb is on full EBM with occasion latching. We told CL to warm the EBM at nite for bb. CL wan to feed FM as bb will feel fuller with that so their job easier, dun need to wake up so often and faster to prepare. Just tell your CL if u wan ur bb to take bm.
Bunnymum,
I have the same experience when i deliver my #1, i can't control my bladder after they take out the urine catherer. My gynae mention that coz when bb deliver, injured the bladder as my urine got blood, will take time to recover. That time i super stressed. When i go home, i put the blue continence sheet at my bed and keep going to toilet as i worried that my urine will jus flow out. It takes a few days then slighlty better, but after that i experience some urine incontinence, like if sneeze, urine will leak. For this #2, i'm quite worried but this time round afer giving birth, lucky i dun hav the same problem. My gynae say after i go back for check up, he will teach me some exercises to help to strengthen the muscles.
U dun be too stressed and very important that your hubby give u the support and help during this time. If you woried, talk to your gynae.
As for bb, you can call paedetric as well. Dun be too stressed, not good as you have just delivered.

Hi - haven't managed to keep up with the thread...The 8 days old BB has been keeping his parents bz.
Congrats to the mummies who have just delivered!
Desperately need advice from mummies who totally feed their bb with expressed breastmilk. My BB latches on for only 5-10min and falls asleep or wriggles and causes himself to unlatch. We have been supplementing his feed with FM to keep him satisfied and give my sore nipples a break.
If I want to just breastfeed him fully with expressed milk, how often and how long must I pump? Will my supply drop cos BB does not latch on?
Thanks in advance for any advice!

Mummies - anyone of u got fresh blood like menses after the lochia stopped? I just had mine..I think CloudPoem is that u that were asking menses came back just merely a week or 2?? I got a red fresh patch, kinda alot..quite worried [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif] my hb ask me to ring my gynae tmr.
split - according to LC, our ss will adjusted to meet bb's demand after 1-2 weeks. So it is norm I suppose..if u wanna build up more ss, then u gotta latch and pump more often. That's what I have been told to do so.

bunnymum, hope u feel better now. Tmr u can call your gynae to check on your urine incontinence. Don't stress first..
As for bb, ur hb brought him back to hosp? What the PD said? Usually NB zz quite a lot and they have reserved, don't worry if they r not drinking.
Also, if u have sore & bleeding nip, let her nip rest, put the nip cream and heal it first.

my boy is 1 week old but his skin is so red/ dark coloured!
Will the colour eventually disappear? My MIL say don;t worry cuz baby next to us in hospital also very red, but they are Indian couple!
My hubby is Japanese, those very fair skin type and I'm not all too dark either =(
Any mummies with very red/ dark skin baby?

I'm so frustrated.. My girl is having a bad cough with phlegm.. My maid serve a plate of fruits (papaya, blueberries & strawberries).. My girl is a fruit lover, the moment she saw the plate of fruits on the table, she's start to go crazy, throw tantrum..
Doc advise her not to take berries, grapes & orange.. So my hb questioned me why I didn't buy apples or other kind of fruits for her.. My girl like to stuff everything in her mouth & lazy to chew.. After explaining to my hb, then shout @ me either finish up the fruits quickly or put it away.. TMD, fed up man...

Dolly, T2 stage need a lot of patient & parents involvement. If ur mum & maid can help look after nb more time then u can actually guide your #1 better.
My #1 also needs lot of attn & time fr us but at least she is older & able to understd but still we r exhausted.

Apple, that's what I told them that I want them to look after the nb while I can spend more time with the #1..
Yaer, your mum said that coz she's not the one who is waking up middle of the nite..
Split, my hb slept thru the nite & during the day He hardly take care of the nb.. He's only busy with his own stuff... These men are so MCP...
Bb boy & girl, I told my hb that remember when we were taking care the #1.. She's not as fussy as the bb boy.. Quite easy to look after. Especially after making her sleep, she will not wake up again & cry for attention.. From her 3weeks onward, she start to drink milk from 2 hrly to 4 hrly... So for this bb boy, don't know how long more he's going to "torture" us?
