puppyduppy,
my neonat is oso Dr Siva. then u dun hav to worry coz he handled lots of preemies already. he's very steady, so if he dun mentioned anything, means ur bb is ok. if there's anything he'll tell u. last time i was wondering y my bb has to take so little milk initially, then he asked me to patient coz their intestine is small n not able to cope. n his bill is reasonable.. so dun worry too much.
i was like u initially, very lost n suffer a lot w BF.. but after 1 wk then the supply become steady n i manage to fully BF till now (almost 7 mths). did u get a good pump? use a good one w help.
n share w u a good news. Dr Siva allows bb to discharge at abt 1.9kg if there's no other prob. mine discharge 3 wks after in NICU at weight 1.98kg. how's ur bb weight now? how many weeks stay in NICU already?
The Mt E NICU nurses...mostly r good, got 1 or 2 not so good. we can talk more on email abt the nurses there
not good to critic ppl at public forum
stay steady.. i oso face all the problem u faced. i didn't cry during 1st few days, but when i discharged, i cried. and at home, every morning Dr Siva called to report his development, sometimes he didn't gain any weight on the day i oso cry...same here, non of my fren hav preemies n worsen is my family didn't seems wan to face tis reality. they keep avoiding me n even warn me dun tell anyone abt my case... i was so sad n feel helpless. u'll pass thro the stage one day. the good thing abt u , jane n some other mums here are u all came to tis forum on time n can share each other experience.. when during my time, i didn't know tis forum n was alone in the dark
wat we need is really encouraging fr each other!! we face a tougher experience rite after delivery...keep it up
