I'm wondering if I'm having yeast infection cuz it's itchy there, but not sure if the discharge are normal or really yeast since I'm sure there are pretty much "things" to expel from the body....hmm... Shd I see the gynae? I'm only seeing him in a month's time for postpartum check up....

If it's itchy and makes you uncomfortable.. Better to ring up gynae and let him know bah. Already so many things to juggle, you don't need another problem to worry about.
Jia you, lilacz. Why go back to work you can't pump? Workplace not supportive? Or because of your hand? If it's hand, I guess can get those handsfree kits to help you with it?

I am so sad... baby suddenly doesn't want to nurse at my breast.... Hubby gave her bottle twice already cos she was so upset.... now I am the upset one. Worried that it is nipple confusion and she won't want the breast anymore.
Any mommies with experience letting baby get back to breast after bottle feeding?

Keep trying. Could be nipple confusion but never give up everytime it's time for a feed k? Sometimes it could be the flow too. What you can do is hand express some milk first so that you'll have milk ready at the tip of her tongue when she's ready to suckle.
Yes yes.... that was what my mum, sisters and cl told me... need to rest my back.. mayb you try to lie in bed.. . Hope u get better...
I occasionally will switch between breast and bottle.. then my boy will sometimes cry like hell (til no sound) when I offer my breast.... I will calm him down first, til he doesnt cry, then offer that side of the breast.. if he still dont want, I give him tge other side.. usually he always take the other side... mayb u can try???....
Sayang u... dun wear bra first if possible... wait stick back again... u got the breast shield??? If no, air your nipples, dun wear anything...
To all mummies, jia you.... I having difficult time feeding my boy too... he sleeps in the day, feed 1 and half hours... but always cries like hell at abt 2am to 7am.. wants feeding every half to an hour.. nipples pain.. so I try to air them.. I am still down with my soar throat.. last night, I coughed out phlegm with blood... cl say cannot drink water.. sigh... wearing mask 24 hours even when sleeoing.. damn cannot breath loh..... so stuff.... sigh..

You going back to work? If you are, just take it as early introduction of the bottle, no choice. But keep persevering k?

Yes going back to work. But I am hoping that she will take both bottle and breast. Not just one or the other. Sigh. Especially in the first month I want to build up supply so really want her to latch.
little_lamb
Well-Known Member
Understand. Maybe give her a bit more time ... I have read of cases of babies who were exclusively bottledfed for 3 months and were able to switch to latching after that. Maybe visit kellymom.com website for some suggestions.

Read this in a book about breastfeeding not sure if it helps.
'Giving the bottle with baby turned toward the breast of with cheek on your bare breast can help build more positive associations. You can also try placing the bottle under your armpit, preferably by a bare breast, so that baby must face you more fully when he feeds from the bottle as he would at the breast.
Offering the breast when he is sleepy and placing him upright skin to skin to take advantage of his nursing instincts can also help baby overcome his resistance. Once he begins latching, he'll gradually learn to trust the breast again over several feedings or days, and then feedings will become the enjoyable experience that they were meant to be.'

It's the hormones. I felt this way first few days when I saw my daughter also. But after a while you will feel more at peace with yourself and you will realize also that your girl has suddenly grown up. As if she suddenly understands a lot of things.
Sayang your girl.....so poor thing... neck sprain...

Sometimes they cry after throwing up milk is cuz they are feeling uncomfortable with a lot of gas in stomach. Carry him n burp him, it may just work. My boy also like that...most of the time just need burping then will go bk to sleep. For 90ml..my CL burp him 3times as she feeds him... She said their little tummy cannot take so much milk at one shot.

Hearing about the wounds is scary!!! I dunno how my Cesar wound is like.... Haven't removed the dressing yet. Gotta go back to gynae this Tuesday to remove. Amazingly though I have been able to do a lot more then I imagine I would be able too.... So should be healing alright.
Rainbowstarz, I experienced those emotions when I had my second child.
Felt bad that I was neglecting my elder boy (almost 4 then).
This time before giving birth I tried to prepare my self for such feelings and in a way i Thot I would not have a strong bond with number 3 coz "no time" to really enjoy him, but since meeting him... I instantly bonded and will carry and have as much skin to skin contact, interaction as time permits. Won't scared whether he will become sticky etc. Just want him to be contended. But I have been emo too... As when I look at baby, it brings back memories of my 9yr old boy and makes me feel bad for all the times I have my struggles with him... Ie education expectations etc.
Feel been neglecting his need as a child to play.... Always micro managing his everyday. Really hate the education system here... Can see why less ppl have kids.
Think the exams Have been stressing me till i was thinking or dreaming (not sure ) my left/right Breast is Chinese or English, during 3am baby milk feed... (I was practically still asleep and fed baby in lie down position for the first time.

lilacz is right, have to pace them. Cannot one shot drink a bottle, must burp in between, even for BF-ing. I think 90ml may not be enough for your boy. Is he 4kg already?

*hugs to you* Must be such challenging moments and although I cannot empathise in full but to some extent I can. Like you, I thought back about how I raised my girl when she was a baby and I think I'm kinder this time round as in I carry him more and let him cry less. Maybe coz' we have been through this whole phase and we know the needing to be carried phase will soon pass. Like my girl now, no matter how I wanna hug or carry her, she won't want it anymore. But I also take heart that I've raised her to be a really independent child and that she's not sticky.
As for education system, I know what you mean.
Having come back from Shanghai, even at a preschool level, I can already see the differences there and here. Not that I think her current school is no good but I feel that international schools in shanghai, the teachers put more 'heart' into raising their kids to be all rounded instead of just focusing on academics and results oriented. I feel sad sometimes when I think back that we have to put our children through this education system henceforth and wonder how my kids will turn out to be. Really hope DH will have a chance to be posted back to China again sometimes.
