I have read in a lot of articles that oat helps to increase supply. Hope that will help me and eventually not have to supplement with fm. My cl says oat will also improve quality of BM.

Little lamb are u direct latching or pumping? For me I find that if I do a 20 min pump rest 5-8mins then pump another 8 - 10 mins, it helps to slowly increase supply in the long run. I started oats today also. Will see if it works.
 
A friend of mine started baking lactation cookies at home and said it has helped her with supply.. I don't bake as I don't have oven at home, she has offered to bake extras and give me some to try :) perhaps mummies here who bakes also can give it a try?

I am mixing in between direct latching and expressing. Will try your method for expressing. Oats like no difference for me. Maybe coz day one.

Enfamil is stage 1. My boy drinking that now. Enfalac is the old name.

Does all ur babies make a lot of stretching n clearing throat noises? My boy does that throughout the day n night... Esp night time when it's all quiet... Super noisy. End up i keep waking up though it's not feeding time. He also drinks n stretch at same time cannot just quietly finish his milk....Duno wats wrong with him.

Wah very good. I drag 4 hours can get 120 but only at after 4 weeks I think.
 
Little-lamb, I take the oats 3 times daily in small amount. Also eating Carmen's muesli bars with rolled oats and nuts inside. Bought at cereal section of fairprice.

My right nipple still sore n think almost blister. My baby like dun wanna open mouth big to put whole areola in n he laps with his tongue as soon as my boob is in range of his face. Really doesn't mean 3rd time round easier.... Each kid suck differently.

I so understand how you feel. For me although I kept #1 stuff, deep down it was for a girl. Now boy I dunno what to do with him. I've no cl so I do most of the taking care. Then now #1 sick so she's banned fr her didi room. The poor girl can only sit at the door to watch. Sigh...

I even started "scolding" him liao, for not latching properly. My areola big so he can't take in all so each feed hurts. Makes me feel so battered and bruised.

Last night he also couldn't sleep, fr 6+ on/off all the way to 3am! I'm thinking it's growth spurt cos it's exactly one week today, but all he wanted to do was latch. Simply refused to be put in his cot. Then #1 high fever somemore. Ugh.... Just madness......

For me, I find that with #2, I tend to pass him on to others to take care. Hospital pass to nurses. Come home pass to CL to manage. Somehow 2nd time around not so wanna be too attached and tend to let go more. Hope your #1 gets better soon.
