pump milk easier or breastfeed easier?

will breastfeed and/or pump milk permanently darken nipple color or cause nipple to become bigger like tutu (pacifier)?
 
my nipple already darken... so ugly.
From the way I see my sis, I will pump coz I don't really feel comfortable with latching haha.
Maybe pump and latch in the 1st mth to get the flow going, then will pump instead.

Other pp can also help feed bb if u pump out. hehe

some babies are good latcher... some bb may need more time to get used to... cant answer for all...

erm i think once you no longer a virgin, the nipples will permanently be dark pink...nipple wont enlarged with pumping or bf la... keke...but if you latch/pump for long, may cause boobs to shrink and sag after you stop bf

if you have your own breast pump already, you should bring yours along to hospital also to get used to your own breastpump suction...else there always your bb that helps you to relieve the engorgement (erm maybe not all the time)

My clinic call me and say I have UTI after sending my pee sample to lab. The results came back after like a week. And I din feel anything for this whole time. She ask me to go and take the antibiotics. Is it necessary? Actually will the infection just go off by itself 1?

No it will not go aways after you got it ..
best take antibodic cos we dun want to risk the bacteria travel upward and cos damage to the kidney

But bacteria may also travel from your bladder, up through the ureters, to infect one or both kidneys. A kidney infection (also called pyelonephritis) is the most common serious medical complication of pregnancy. The infection can spread to your bloodstream and become life-threatening for you.

A kidney infection may also have serious consequences for your baby. It increases your risk of preterm labor and having a low-birth-weight baby, and it has been linked to an increased risk of fetal or newborn mortality.[\quote]

Hey kittybaby, u dont have any symptoms?

May I suggest that you request for the test to be repeated cos it could be contamination due to incorrect collection technique. If you are asymptomatic ( no fever, no pain etc) I don't see the reason for starting antibiotics.
 
PTB7674 said:
it's ok lah..dun be sad..
look on bright side ..that is no artifical color and your beanie wont be any artifical coloring with the milk lolz
Click to expand...
if BM has artificial coloring, I'd faint!!! Thick waist, dark nipples, enlarged areolas, sad case man. The only thing i am thankful abt is that the skin arnd my boobs and tummy is still ok .. no SM and no linea nigra

No leh, no sypmtom at all. No fever or pain when I pee. Can UTI have no symptom??

I took the pee sample 2 times on the day of collection leh. 1st time pee on the strip, then gynae say suspect of infection, then ask me to collect pee 2nd time send for culture test. Can there be contamination on both time I pee? If send for culture again, need another 1 week to know result...

Welcome to the group of taobao-ers, hehe. I also never buy before I was preggy but started realizing what a wonderful shopping site it is with the help of the mummies here. You can ship directly from taobao shopping site no need middleman. The mummies here recommended me 4px, which I used and found was good. Happy shopping!
