I had problems latching my girl on in the beginning, it got so bad that at 2 weeks old, she would rather take the bottle than me.
Everytime, after struggling for 30mins, both of us would be tired and frustrated, and I would feel super sad!
After praying hard and persevering she finally decided...
I remained roughly the same size thruout pregnancy, and now that im breastfeeding, still about the same, just slightly fuller than before.
I'm hoping wun become smaller than before after i stop bf-ding! if not cant wear all my bras already
Any meeting rooms you can utilize?
I didn't realize there was a nursing room in my office building the first week i was back at work, so I just used a meeting room, locked the door and pumped
Thanks :) hope she will adjust. So far the past 3 days she has refused to bottle. she just has one extra feeding at night. cuz she originally started to sleep thru the night, but cuz of her refusal to drink in the day from the bottle, she will wake up in the night to drink.
oh no...how old was she when you went back to work?
Cuz i'm trying to get my 2.5mth old to take the bottle cuz i'm going back to work soon, but shes refused so far. Then again itz only been 3 consecutive days of trying :)
I've also bf-ed directly for 2mths, gg back to work soon, trying to get her to take the bottle, so training her for the day feeds, but she refuses :(
She'd rather wail until shes tired then sleep, and suck on her little fingers than drink from the bottle :(
When she was a month old, there were...
My girl is 8 weeks old, so far she has tried
Pampers NB, which gave her a nasty diaper rash
Mamy Poko, the best. She uses this at night and when we go out.
PetPet, really value for money
Drypers, value for money too
Pureen, works, but thicker than the rest. don't think i'll buy again
so far...
my in laws know how much my hubby earns, but they have never asked about my pay.
my mum knows how much we both earn, but she also knows how much we have to pay for our bills/installments etc every month.
so far no one has demanded anything of us :)
I wanted to bring my girl out before she was a month old, but my mum kept showing me black face when i suggested that, so once she hit that milestone, me n hubby brought her out hehe
shes 8wks old tmr, and i've brought her out almost everyday cuz we eat out.
I've never brought her out alone...
Hi foreveris, thanks for replying, thought this thread would get no attention at all haha
I tried massaging my breasts before pumping, and also compressing the breast while pumping and it does help, somehow my supply went up, and after pumping for 10mins each side i managed to get about...
