Rant a little here ... Bf-ing can be so tiring sometimes. I feel like I am taking day time to recuperate sleep from night time so much so I'm missing out precious time spent with my #1. CL also very strict over what I am eating even though it's been more than one month coz of bf-ing and she believes that whatever I eat will affect baby. So tempting sometimes to just give up on bf-ing totally. Days seem to drag these days.

Really looking forward to the days when baby can interact more with us to cheer myself up some more. Yet also very heartened to see him grow out of his newborn look already.
 


Baby has peeling and acne on his face. Can't do anything about it right? I only use cotton ball and water to wipe the face cos soap will be too strong.

Normal. Just have to let it pass. It can also be our confinement diet which is too heaty that is releasing it all out on his face if you're bf-ing.

I heard Babies fully on fm will be prone to constipation... but I remember some brands of fm won't cause that. U might want to switch brands and see if there is improvement. Also gentle tummy massage with ruyi oil can help too.

Depends on how much you want to freeze. The Sensible Lines tray has 6 or 8 rows each tray I think.. Each one row is meant to fit 1oz of milk, and comes out as milk sticks so when you want to thaw the milk sticks you just put appropriate sticks in the milk bottles and leave them in the fridge to thaw slowly.

The set comes in 2 trays.

How do u transfer the milk stocks fr tray to freezer ziplock n eventually for consumption?

The trays comes with lids.. I twist the trays abit and 'unload' the frozen milk sticks on to the clean side of the lids, then transfer over to freezer ziploc immediately and dump into freezer. Hands must be clean..

U can rub the tummy in circular motion and take the baby's legs to do cycling motion. Helps to get rid of wind and improve bowel movements..

Even after all the massage I still have a tummy. . Look like I'm still 4 months preggy :( think I need to exercise and diet after confinement le. .

You may like to try this ...The nurse teach me to clean bb nose dirt with small cotton buds. Have to use the bb/small cotton buds, wet with water, clean after bath time. Hold bb face, gently clean inside nostrils, not too deep in. When the dirt/mucus is a little outside the nostrils, it's likely to b a little sticky, try to stick it to the cotton bud and twirl and pull out the rest inside nostrils. Just b warned that while u try to hold bb face, bb will be crying, kicking, flinging hands .....so have to b gentle and fast.

Rainbow, we used ruyi oil for ours. Rub a little in a clockwise motion after bath. Works wonders. Ours farted and cleared all the initial poo today. 4 times poo.
 


My baby is like in pain trying to poo today too. Cry high pitch as though screaming. Seems to be having a growth spurt. Today interval from 3 he become 1 hr. My nipples so sore... After shower even the slightest touch from the towel makes me cringe.
