I give up trying to figure out the bm alr...

same as me ..my boy also drank stage 1 til 12 months old so my gal also will be doing the same so on average every 2 wks 1 can of 900g
not keen to buy the 1.8kg ...cos i prefer a fresh new can every 2 wks than 1 can for 1 month

Any reason why?

we feel stage 2 is redundant cos it is meant only for 6-12months so dun bother to change it.

Hello mummies, have you guys start thinking about childcare? We are a bit kiasu but there are so many babies this year ;) we checked with caterpillar cove child care at jurong east and my lo is on waiting list..

I'm also looking at Caterpillar Cove! It's not cheap though. Have you visited the school yet? What's your impression? Why did u choose this over others?

Can you pump a little bit to relieve the engorgement?? Or massage your breast under hot shower??

Huh I read on the Breastfeeding Mums FB thread. Quite a few ppl say they got supply dip after eating these items, so I don't dare take. In fact I avoid the bak kut teh, 猪杂汤, kway chap stall altogether...
Click to expand...

I eat all these frequently!! No wonder my milk only moderate supply lol
 
just cleared my blockages... officially on one pump per day but my ML suggested that I take the medicine from gynae ...faster and easier

Everybody's milk killer is different bah. I just play it safe and avoid altogether. Later kenna is my milk killer then will be damn sian and have to work doubly hard to bring supply back up again...

How is your bb drinking?? Still drinking more than before starting solids?

I am going to visit the Jurong one this weekend. The location is quite convenient for me to drop him off, my parents or my in laws to pick him up after school. The reviews online seem pretty good, that's why shortlisted them. The waiting list seems quite long though, I was told there are 40 kids on the waitlist... Did you pay a deposit when you put your LO on the waiting list? Are you on the waiting list for IFC or CC?

I live in Bukit Batok near the swimming pool and have also visited a couple schools around there and in Clementi....

hey !

was referring to LO'S milk intake ...

haven't gotten my period yet , no ss problems but I am now wondering if it's the right time to start dropping pumps. I am producing about 40% to 50% more than what Lo needs. I feel it's not efficient to get a new freezer and then wind up blessing the milk to others if lo doesn't take fbm , or to thrown away so many milk bags / milk . I'd prefer lo to not have fbm

If you are already producing more and you don't want to keep fbm, then no point producing the extra, no?? You can drop a pump and let your supply dip first??
