Hakisumi,

I have a same situation with you but encounter a big problem now...

Breastfeeding..

My nipple is sore and crack....

So painful when feed him and my baby like always not full when I breastfeed him..

What should I do.. :embarrassed:

Cry few time about this matter...
aiyo no worry 1st few days is colostrum very little only..

U can give more feeds la to trigger more supply ( that is wat i doing ) If really not enuff i will supplement formula too. Cos my baby jaudice need drink more milk to poo and pee ( flush out jaudice )

Usually 1st week supply is low:
1st to 3days is COlostrum
abt 4 to 6 days or so is transition milk ( very low supply oso )
then is followed by BM ( will increase as u nurse )

Don give up keep nursing. If sore hor like me express out to feed ( but i prefer latch on )

For those i express out i will pour into formula give my gal or boi. Anyway i not much to store alwiz express 10 to 20ml nia LOL

Lonerjas,

Sore and crack nipple still can pump?

I also pump out since lacth on is so painful for me...

My milk flow increase these 2 days increase from 20ml to 50ml..

But still not enough for my boy.

His intake is about 80ml each feeding, so I will let my baby drink my breast milk than additional with formula milk... :001_302:

I don't dare to touch fruits yet. I am drinking prune juice now. Initially there wasn't even vegetables in my the first week of my confinement. Now there's vegetables after my special request. Haha...

I'm doing confinement. Only bathe once a week. Thinking of wiping my body later with warm water. So ley chey...

Anyway, my boy' skin is very dry. Anyone has recommendations on baby lotions that are good for moisturising the tot?

Hi ladies,

I hv delivered my boy on 20 October 2009. He weighed 3.6kg and measured 51cm in length. Now busy with breastfeeding... supply is quite good. From the initial 20-30ml each pumping session, I can now manage about 120ml each session (pump every 4-5 hourly). I also latch him on sometimes.

Cheers!
