dym, my gyane also given me the huge pink pill + calcium tablet. I hate popping pills and keep forgetting to take.
Starr, dont standby formual first it will kill your motivation for BF and surrender to FM due to convinence sake. For my 1st I did not standby FM, as we attend those talk Sponsor will give out FM sample just use those if u have supply issue.
To share my experience for first time mummies, once you give birth the nurse will ask which brand of FM u want to give yr baby. For my case I gave in bec had 16hrs of labour when BB finally come out already no strength to BF baby and Nurse physco me say yr baby so big 3.9kg cannot go hunger during midnight better give them FM, I too tired to protest and gave in too. For the 2 nite stay in hospital BB is half BF & FM feed.
I am glade that I had BF my son for full 10mths before he was sent to IFC.
