its the nipple size not the cup size ...

you can simulate the breasts by massaging...but dun go use your breastpumps to pump out the fluid... percautionary cuz pumping out milk suppose to contract your womb... this is not the time to contract our womb now!

Means, to use 21mm size, your stimulated nipple should be around 15-17mm? (give and take some space for the nipple to move)?

I called them up. The express class does not include breastfeeding lesson. They will teach your at your ward after you delivered, if you are NUH patient.
And, you cant bring your baby for hands-on massage lesson (bcos you havent give birth yet. Hahahaha!)

Icic.. Thanks sugar!
 
I finally signed up the prenatal classes at TMC. Cost $350+ after disc with FBI. Anybody also looking at Nov weekend classes? I will see u there

soft fit is made up of silicon, material is softer so more moulded to your breasts but it is easily stained and does not last long. Personal fit is made up of plastic, hard of cos but relatively easy to wash/rinse off... i had both before, I will go for personal fit but its personal choice...

ecym , so I can use either to pump rite? I bought mine in 2011 and use the softfit to pump in 2012.
wanted to go to their service centre to check if the pump is still in workable condition then only now I saw the personalfit in the box. haha.

Hi dearbabe, any particular reason why u chose tmc over other hosp in terms of the class? Seems like tmc is charging more than mt or nuh..
 
I juz finish my detail scan..

There might be some problem.

Baby’s lower spine cannot be seen clearly as it should be. And neither they can find the "lump" that indicates that baby might be paralyse. ..

So cant conclude anything yet. Have to review in 2 weeks time.

Anyone know anything abt this issue ??

its a kinda try and error thing... cuz the medela comes with the standard size 21 (if I remember correctly), once you start pumping bm, and you feel pain (nipple) while pumping, it could mean the shield is too small for you...

or if think after 20mins of pumping, you still feel your breasts are still full, the shield may be too big for you to properly drained out through pumping..

here is a good read from the web ... though I will not suggest you go try it before your give birth... you may induce birth if you go try to test pump!

Don't panic first. Is it possible to arrange for an earlier review? Or go to Dr ananda?

Today scan twice.

I m 19 weeks 2 days now. But based on scan baby is 20 weeks.

So the sonographer say shouldnt be blur.

So they decide to scan in another 2 weeks time... cannot early cannot late.. muz be 2 weeks exactly.

Saw gynae he say it should be fine... but the person who scan me make it until like very serious. ..


Hope false alarm...

Just got back to work today. See all the unread email already sian liao.... =.=
