Today's topic Breastfeeding and baby carriers eh? It took me so long to read through the new threads. Been sleeping the whole day today
For new moms who don't mind gg out during 1 month, I would recommend going to babycafe at Mother & Child at tanglin mall together. They have nurses/midwives there to help you Breastfeed and some refreshments for only $15 (last I check). They helped me a lot. Seeing other moms struggling with Breastfeeding also helped me a lot knowing I was not alone. But note they are really pro 100% Breastfeeding. So whatever advice they give try to see perspective from that end. I was really stressed w my #1 for Breastfeeding that I drank 6 bowls of soup for dinner.
Pumping I used to do quite a lot too. To ease the boredom I would watch korean soap dramas while pumping. But I really hate pumping... It's like milking a cow...
For antenatal classes, do take note on the baby care during the first year too. I find the first year the toughest, especially baby sleep..
For baby carriers, our next outing I don't mind bringing what I have to show. I have the pupsik pouch, a sarong and also the manduca. I also have the easy wrap but it's with my friend in oz now.
