Hi,
Do you latch your baby directly? My milk supply always goes down when I dont latch on...I heard that some mummies don't respond well to pump and just need to latch on to increase milk production.
If baby is on full formula, then you must give her water after every feed, or else she will have constipation. Full fm babies should poo once a day. If you gently press your babies tummy and its hard, then she is probably having constipation. If tummy not hard then its not constipation.

I had this problem with my first son also...he rejected milk when he was about 2.5 months. He drove the whole family nuts because he refused to drink milk. In the end I switched to rice cereal (mixed with milk) and porridge when he was 3 mths. He would still throw up the rice cereal purposely...
Hi my son's paediatrician is also Dr Ho from Kai Clinic. He is very experienced and gentle with kids. Best thing is...he is a GP with a Masters in Paediatrics so cheaper than specialists and can still continue to see him even when the kids grow up.
If your let-down is too fast you can try leaning backwards a little bit to slow down the flow. Or maybe he just wants to complain. My baby was also fussy like that a while back and for some reason, he would calm down if I speak soothingly to him when he latch on. My husband and I think that he...
My massage lady recommended fillling a milk bottle with hot water then using it to massage the lump. Massage towards the nipple. She said the hard bottle is more effective than a towel. I've tried it and it works in unblocking milk ducts quite quickly. If you try everything but the lump is still...
I used to drop alot of hair too!! I asked my hairstylist for help and she said that I had weak scalp. Its supposed to be very common after giving birth. She recommended a Redken shampoo to me and a serum by L'oreal...I used for about 2 weeks and can start to see less hairloss. The serum a bit...
Can buy citric acid from most supermarkets. Usually in the baking sections. Just mix a little bit with water and cover the metal part then use sponge to wipe off. After that rinse with water can already.
Hi,
When my baby was 6 weeks I gave him 120ml, it lasted for 3 - 4 hrs before he got hungry again. Now he is nearing 2 months I give him 150 ml, also last for 3-4 hrs before he gets hungry. The feeding interval is about the same as when I nurse him.
hi heyious,
don't worry, i think babies drink every 2-3 hours. You count from the start of the feed to the start of the next feed. Try to encourage your baby to nurse faster...can tickle him or wake him up if he stops.
I am using Mon Petit Jardin nursing cover. So far so good and the...
Wow...everyone seems to be having kids really close. My first son is 5+ and my second one is almost 2 mths. There is a 5 year gap. I actually like the gap. It allowed me to bring my son for holidays and now that he is older, he dosen't need as much help with things like eating and dressing...
