Hi fellow mummies! I am having my #2. #1 is 3.5 yrs old now. My edd is 16 Oct. BIG HELLO! :001_302:

Hi mummies, my hubby will be going over to Ohio for his post graduate studies in September this year. I heard that we can't get formula milk (like Enfa, Mamil etc.) in the States, is that true?! Then what do the babies there drink?

I like Marks & Spencer nursing bras. Good support and very comfortable

Sure can! =) Jia you for little cutie pie Cheyenne! =)

I am still expressing my milk around 6 times a day. I still wake up in the middle of the night to express, once before I leave for work, twice before I sleep and twice in the office. Just hope to continue as long as possible. Sigh...I think government should give 6 months maternity leave...

Sometimes when babies hit their growth spurt, they will suddenly drink a lot. My boy drank up to 180ml per feed few weeks ago, and now drop by a lot, hardly can finish 100ml. I wonder if the teats are too slow for him. He can take up to an hour to finish 100ml. I have gone back to work and...

Hi mummies. Is anyone using Dr Brown milk bottle? My boy's PD recommended Dr Brown and Nuk cos he said the Avent I am using now is not as good. I can't seem to be able to fix a routine for my boy's drinking. He can drink every half an hr to 1 hr. Sometimes when I try giving him more milk (like...

I think it's ok. Main reason why not to cut their nails before 1 month is because the nails are still very soft and fragile. My boy just regurgitated out all his milk, and some came out through his nose! Luckily my hubby was with him cos he was like having problem breathing ;(

Can the nail sisscors be used to cut hair too if I am just gonna cut a symbolic little bit ?

.bee, my boy also can drink up to 1 litre of milk per day. He feeds on EBM, and we have a paper to record his every feeding. From a book, the guideline to formula feeding goes like this: 0-1 week: 30-60ml, 7-8 feeds per day 1-2 weeks: 60-90ml, 6-7 feeds per day 2-4 weeks: 90-120ml, 5-6 feeds per...

Your princess Maegan is sooo cute! :tlaugh:I love her eyes!

I too heard that baby's nail before 1 month old is better to be left alone with mittens. For the baby's nose, I was told by his PD to use a flab of cotton wool, wet it and roll it before putting it in to clean the nose, as cotton bud may be dangerous if the baby suddenly sneeze and the bud poke...

Nightingale, it's excellent to hear that your supply has increased! I am gonna try mini electric again. My supply now can hardly keep up with my boy's demand.

Mecole, I dont think I can handle my boy on my own yet. Maybe we got to wait till Nov since some mummies only gave birth towards the end of Sep.

Did you mummies try squeezing your breast during pumping? Sometimes when it seems that the milk has run out, I will try squeezing the breast (especially from the bottom), I will get significantly more milk out.

I am facing the same problem. My boy cannot finish his milk during 1 feed, then starts crying for more in less than 2 hours. Sigh. Very difficult to fix his feeding routine.

Congratulations mummyk and littleworm! A journey of parenthood begins :tlaugh: mrs_eg, my boy also doesn't stick to a routine sleeping pattern. Sometimes, he can be wide awake for hours and I roughly calculate that his total sleeping hours per day is like approx. 12 hours or less. I guess if...

lovemk87, is your baby hungry when you are bathing him? Cos my boy will scream if we bathe him when he's hungry. But we also cannot bathe him right after he's had his feed. So usually, we let him rest for half an hour after his feed before we bathe him and get a bottle of milk ready by the side...

Hi, my baby's stool has always been yellow in color. But recently, one or two of his poo is green in color. I am not sure why. I search from the Internet and it says that it can be due to either over/under feeding or bug in the stomach. Could it be fright? He's been very unsettled through the...

My friend told me that we will experience a drop in milk supply sometime along the way, but it will slowly pick up again. Don't give up, continue pumping and latching...
