like that my plugged duct also 1 yr old, accompanied by 1 yr old sore throat and running nose. Didn't know being unwell can affect supply so much. today bb still need to take frozen milk.
jas
the article seems to suggest it's good for bb to supplement with lecithin in our daily diet even without blocked ducts? if so I will continue to take daily.
ask u guys, thawed milk has a smell leh but I tried it, still sweet so don't think it's spoilt. I used pigeon milk bag, freeze immediately after pumping, stored bags in an air tight container so should be very clean process. What's that smell? like metal to me but mum says it's like cod liver oil. bb still took the milk. No LS.

Hi Whitefloral
Keekee, my block duct still got a bit bit pain, maybe press too hard liao but think should be gone soon. Hope you will get well soon too.
You are lucky that your BB take your frozen milk, my boi don't like the metalic smell and reject milk ever since then. My freezer still have about 50 pack of 150ml.
My supply also drop, yesterday only got 500ml to pass to nanny, today drop to 480ml, but I pump before she come and fetch Justen so should be enough for his day time intake. Justen not drink that much too...

Hi Mummies,
Am new to this thread. Will be grateful for your advise in a few matters.
a) My baby will be with my in laws for a week. What is the best/ cheapest way to store the expressed milk during this time ?
b) When I go out without my baby, I will feel engorgment after 3 hours. What should I do ? If I pump out the milk, how do I ensure that the milk will not get spolit as I may be out the whole day ? Does this also means that I will not be able to go overseas without my baby ?
c) Anyone has any idea if we go for courses at IPAM, is there any nursing room or way to store the BM ?
Thank You.

ng,
u mean how you going to get the EBM to your in laws place, isit? same as if you pump outside, and will be outside the whole day...
buy a cooler box or bag lor. i have a cooler bag (the ameda pump bag) with 2 ice bricks.. if the bricks are frozen, according to the manual the milk in the cooler bag can last a good 12 hrs! but i seldom leave it in cooler bag for so long.. try to get the EBM to a fridge asap.. max was 5-6 hrs.
when i went hk without bb, i also threw away my EBM for the few days. but if you plan before hand and get ready your cooler bags/box/ice bricks, and yr hotel got fridge.. you can bring the EBM back to your bb.
crystalmum,
yest i tried again too.. no more hugs from her leh.. she like koala bear.. keep grabbing me then pushing herself up.. recently she wan to learn how to stand on her feet liao. in her cot, she also try to grab the sides and get up on her knees! so mayb the hug is a one -time affair.. mayb she sleepy sleepy so rest awhile on me that day. ;o(
celine,
hows yr pumping experience in the office?

Hi mummies
long time never post in this thread.
My pumping is now down to 2x a day (7am, 7pm). Just started yesterday and by 7pm, my br is already leaking and felt so full. Praying no block ducts and the br will get use to the schedule soon.
Been busy with bb haowen cos he's been waking up many times at nite for the past few nites (mummy panda-eyed liao). Suspect due to teething cos he's been refusing milk and drooling quite badly. Think his gum is sore cos he always calm down when I massage his gum....

Thanks Jas03 and Phoebe.
Jas03,
actually, I do not intend to bring the BM to my in laws ( they stay in Bt timah and I stay in Tampines and I still need to pick up my 2 years old son after work from childcare ). Hence, I am wondering what is the most economical way for me to store my BM in as I have limited number of glass bottles. A mental calculation concludes that I need at least 72 bottles ( 12 bottles daily * 6 days ). Stress.....
Does KK gives glass bottles after baby and I have discharged 2 months ago ?
Phoebe,
I am a civil servant and and IPAM is a building where most civil servants go for courses.
Once again, thanks for all the advice given.

ng, the other alternatives is to store in storage bags and froze it in order to last for one whole week..
hmm.. not sure about kk. i always go back to tmc to take and got no problem with it.. jsut inform the nurse that you need it to store your EBM.
ix.. so how much your get for 12hrs interval? i stil dare not cut down too much, scared not enuf milk for my boy.

alittlemiracle & crystalmum, I tried the 13-hrly pump on Mon night. But before I reached 13-hrs, I was already leaking v v badly, and was having chills and cold sweat, such that I couldn't finish my dinner. And when I started pumping, I realised I kena a very bad clogged duct. Couldn't get it out no matter how I massaged. Was terribly painful, until I almost cried. That's not the worst. After pumping, red spots appeared throughout my body. Yep, I got "hives". Sighs... after seeing doctor and taking medicine, the hives subsided, but then they re-emerged on Tues night (very badly - even the face is peppered with red blotches). I am not sure if the hives was triggered by an allergy from the food I ate, or was it from the stress of dragging the pumping-intervals and the clogged ducts.
That's not all... I switched back to 8-hrly pumping to ensure I get my clogged duct cleared. Yep, it has cleared, but I realised that my supply has dipped badly. It dropped by as much as 20%. Sighs...
alittlemiracle, when u get clogged ducts, do u increase your frequency of pumping, or do u still remain at that stretched intervals?
I am really petrified at pumping at > 12hrs liao. Think I have to stick back to my 8-hrly. Really dunno how... esp since there are no nursing rooms at my work place.
Ix, how is your 12-hrly doing? Hope it is good! Did ur supply drop with that?

alttilemiracle, crystalmum, westbb, jas03, phoebe, tuffy, poko, celine, fun, love, sheris, serrich and my dear worm supplier (sp) and all mummies... wah so many, cannot conso all.. finally got some time to settle down and pop in to really read! HOW ARE U ALL???? Miss miss all the mummies and bb here leh!!! Got miss me or not har..
aiyo got new mummies and bb leh, pio and whitefloral new? Cannot follow up liao, so sorry to miss out...
new mummies means new babies and more mummies on EBM too?
ixwong,
me same same as you, pump 2 times but I pump at 6.15am and night around 7pm coz I need a long travelling time from my place to office. Everyday wake up so early but sleep quite late (around 11 plus). I felt really tired. As you all know I have to go my mum place everyday and to transport my BM. Then I want to have more time with my son so I stay from 6pm till as late as possible. Usually when want to go back I felt very sad especially when ah boi see me left and cried very loudly, so heart-break...
Juz managed to look back some of the previous posting. Saw Angel pix. Alttilemiracle, angel can stand liao har? Can she walk already? that time you just told that she cannot crawl, wah so fast leh. Ah boi still cannot walk, he dun want to stand when we draw up his hand and hold him to walk. He will wriggled and throw temper by making annoying noise to slip away your hands or cry very "sorrowfully" (keh keh type).
Now ah boi is very very naughty and very foul temper already. Can throw things on the floor if he dun like. For eg, last night he holding something we take away from him and give another thing, he cry very loudly, took the one we gave and throw it on the floor forcefully. I so angry I almost smack him! So bad tempered. Then he playing his walker, overturn it and play the wheel, then he put his leg on it and want to step up the walker. We push it away he cry, then crawl to the walker again and overturn it with a very loud bang on the floor, still dare to look at us. His action is really rude and rebellous. I start to fear how to teach him in the years to come...
Fun, i read your posting, just wondering whether I am the one giving bad comment about my child. Actually my mum also say my boi is naughty, want to carry n walk ard (huey kar). I only TL why my mum refuse to come to stay over my place sometimes, make me so tired every night esp after work..
ng.. from your nick, you seem to like totoro is it? Coz I am a great fan of it, so cute, hahaha... ya saying about the glass bottles, I think you can go back to KK to ask from them after discharged. I went back to collect from them also, they seems reluctant and mmake you wait. They will not give you much also. I think depends on luck and nurses, some very "ngiow" won;t want to give you more, they will say they want to give to the patients first. In fact I collect my bottles from KK that's why I know what will b their respond.

crystalmum, I did a 10-hr, 11-hr, 12-hr, then a 13-hr gradually (each day an-hr difference). And I still succumbed badly to the 13-hrly. The toilets have energy saving lights. The lights would go off after the sensors do not detect any movements. Can't pump in the dark lar... cannot focus properly. I am starting work next Monday.
pio,
pump during lunch time can or not?
crystalmummy,
yeah her milk intake was affected for a short while, like 150-180ml instead of her 200ml.. always never drink finish.. but after she recover, ok liao.
all of us in the thread at the same time...i told my hb, one of the best things in 2005 that happened was i got to know all of you mummies on the forum..if not i wld hv become insane liao, esp with all the tong ku expressing! cheers! to our friendship, mummies!!

I'm ok liao, but my ss drop today only got 170ml on my 1st session and going for my next one at 5pm hope can get more. Normally each session I am getting 200ml or more. I got no more supply left in my Fridge liao need to work harder.
I think is a curse, as during my trip I got so much supply that I am throwing 300 to 500ml per day, so I tell myself will not pump so much just enough for Justen will do. And on that same day, I got a block Ducts and together a fever join in. Now my supply drop until very very low. So xian, don't know will the supply come back or not. Feel that I am drying.

Agreed with Jas Yr 2005 is a fruitful one! Others will not know how we feel except for pple who is in the same shoe...
When I having fever due to the block duct, while shivering, my MIL passed a remark saying that her son is very "xin ku" need to take care of BB and me... hey I am the one who is sick ley.
When she know that my ang bring BB to carer house, she also not happy... Ooi I also wake up at 6 plus to pump milk ley.
When I slightly better she tell me that she is happy that when I am sick my ang choose to sleep with BB and not me... Halo that is bcos my ang don't want to trouble you mah.
Hee hee so many complain, I am lucky that I only see them once or twice yearly.

fun, it's like tat.. MEN just dun get it and never understand how 'wei da' we are. each time i complain to him, i can see his face changing like i super sianz like tat.. till now i dun bother to talk to him sometimes.

Jas, I have increased 1-hr each day. Managed to go past the 12-hr mark, but not the 13-hr one. I think during that time (13hr), I was already leaking like mad. And I think there was a clogged duct already, thus mastitis may be setting in -- that's why got chills and cold sweat. After pumping, I was very limp... felt so lousy and no-use... sighs...
Poko, I am a terribly slow pumper. Very slow letdown. So, I take a terribly long time (45min) to finish expressing. And the lights switch off quite quickly - so I doubt I can express anything much out if pumping for a short time.
crystalmum, yep, I may try that again. But not now... a bit petrified, cos my hives is still not gone.
At most, I will pump in the dark in the toilet. Can't see anything, but keep pumping lar.
Hee... I am seating my kid infront of me right now, and she is using my computer as a piano keyboard.

Poko, gosh, your MIL is quite inconsiderate, yah? Well, most importantly is that your hubby does not think the same way.
Phoebe, nope. I did not go to LC. Managed to get the clogged duct cleared with frequent pumping and expressing to very very last drop. But supply has dropped by 20% now -- not sure if it was because I am down with hives or because it is a permanent drop.

Crystalmum,
Pai say, pai say. Did not megabond with my boy lah. Just so started work and things are hotting up, so no time to catch up w all the postings. Quite tough juggling both work and bb, esp since I bring bb home every nite. Recently, my ds is quite cranky with his teething pain, so v drained...
I also thot it's a bit early for my 4.5MO boy to experience teething pain leh, but guess every bb is different. So far, only pain, no tooth seen yet.
Re pumping 2x a day
Just started this new schedule yesterday. Manage to pump out 250-270ml each pump, nothing exciting cos my ss all along only enough for partial BF...
Pio
I also ganna 'hives' during my ML. Took 2 jabs to reduce the rash. At the end, manage to establish it was a case of allergy to overdose of sesame oil. I remember how miserable I was during that period...so plenty of saiyang to u. I found applying 'white rice wine' on the hives quite soothing, can help relieve the itch.
Fun,
take it easy lah. I sometimes also dun like what my MIL says (imagine she discourage me to BF my son!!!), but luckily she dun critise my boy. So I just play deaf and ignore her comments loh. Heng, my hb v rebellious one, so will encourage me to ignore his mum *whew*
