I just got my medela freestyler today. Heard you can rent to try it before committing to it. Was reading another thread abt whether it's worth buying or not. Just like what the promotor said, at least you tried. Breastmilk is the best gift you can give to your child.

after spending so much on the pump, I think i will be even more motivated to pump so as to make it worth.

I also read that supply comes with demand. Was reading an article abt breastfeeding and it encourages mothers to breastfeed within an hour of delivery. You may not have the milk but the baby sucking will help to simulate it.

Any experienced mummies who would like to share more abt this?

By the way I saw this post about having a lot of girls this year. It's the opposite at my workplace. There are 4 new mummies this year and we are all having boys. Last year, we had 3 new boys and only 1 girl. I heard working environment plays a part. If there's the case, I think I need to change job before I try for the 2nd one! lolx

So it's common to feel numbness at this stage? I m beginning to experience it too.. these few days when I slp, I'll woke up with my hands feeling numb.. then I recall seeing this problem in this forum.

For me, sleep is still not an issue (*touchwood!).. perhaps becos I've been slping quite late recently.. no chance to feel awake! haha!

I do not have much problems sleeping yet except that I'm a light sleeper. But I must admit that falling asleep has always been quite a problem for me.

I think in order for me not to experience any numbness, I always do the stretching exercises that were taught during the prenatal class I attended. It really helps a lot! When I can feel numbness creeping into my left arm, I'll get my husband to massage my hands and legs (taught from the prenatal class too). It was really useful! Perhaps you all can try doing some stretching exercises to rid off the numbness? As for falling asleep fast, I'm still trying to find a way to do so. Once I fall asleep, my sleep throughout the night will be so nice and great.

I think I'll rather not have the hospital to do it for me too! Might be messy! haha!!
I've never done any BW before.. normally how long can it last? So that I can estimate when I should go and do..
I used to wax or shave, but now my tummy blocking my view! :001_302:

zaclin29 said:
My colleagues told me TMC charged $15 for shaving. Haha. I would think all hospital will charge. I would rather do BW before delivery...

I think it's ok to deliver under 3kg too just that it'll be quite small.. my cousin delievered my niece @ 2.2kg & one of my friend 2.7kg..
Click to expand...
under 3kg is still ok for baby, as during the class teacher said nowadays baby bigger than 3.3kg is consider big lor.

steffywoofy, how heavy is your baby? I think so long as your baby is in the ideal range, how big is your tummy doesn't really matter =)

steffywoofy said:
Hi bertrande, please email me the list a well! Thank you very much!!!
mademoiselles@msn.com

Anyone having insomnia lately in their third trimester...
every day I jus wake up at 2-4 am and wide awake!
bb will move, squirm for 30 mins on and off ....
so tiring! I tried sleeping later or drink lesser warer so that I won't wake up in the middle of the night but it doesn't help...arghh

Also a lot of people commented that my belly is very small.. Even though I'm at my 31 weeks...but look like 4 months!
dont know should I be happy or worried.
Hahaha other than that I'm enjoying every bit of my pregnancy ...
Every day I'm counting down to her arrival!
