Hi all, it's time for my son's hair cut again. The last time he went to the salon, he cried and screamed for at least 10 minutes non stop! He is approximately 15 months old. Any idea on how I can make the hair cut more pleasant? Should I get a hair shaver instead?

Can check with ur gynae on how to get the period back! You should go for a pre pregnancy checkup anyway.

My supply used to be really good. For every hour that I did not pump, I can pump 50ml. But of course, now I count myself lucky if I can get 240ml after 8 hours. I stored a lot of milk in the chest freezer during my maternity and school holidays to make up for the shortfall. Another option...

I am also a working mum and have bf my son for nearly 14 months. I also went through this phase whereby I was really tired and wanted to give up. However, I realise that as my baby gets older, I can just extend the time interval that I express my milk. In fact, I can do it with 8 hrs...

Can always get the bf pillow in the hospital if u find that u need it. I relied on it as I had a c section and it really helps for the first 2 to 3 months.

Hi all, my boy is 8 months old now. I've started him on solids at 6months. Usually he''ll take brown rice porridge with bits of meat n veg on week days, twice a day. Weekends, it'll be instant cereal with veggie. Occasion fruits for snacks. Do I need to supplement him with iron or multi...

It gets easier to latch on as the baby gets older. You can practice by going to malls with plenty of nursing rooms. I used to bring ebm n pump out together.. was too troublesome after a while so I just let the baby latch on.

Hi fellow mummies, I'm planning to go for a staycation with my baby who will be 10 months in December. Any suggestion? Or do u think that bintan or batam will be better? Thanks in advance!

Actually there's no need to sterilize after each pump..just wash with warm water...only need to sterilize once a day according to the medela instruction manual..

You can try stretching the pumping in the middle of the night if you have more than enough milk supply now. That's what I did!

I'm currently sleeping through the night...pump only in the morning...supply did went down a little. Just able to meet the baby'S demand nowadays..used to be able to keep one extra bag everyday but I decIded Tt sleep is more important. Have to extend the timing half an hour at a time to prevent...

Can wait till sixth month if u are breastfeeding...no hurrys...

For me, I pumped for approximately 20min every 3 hrs for the first 3 months. My baby was almost latching on exclusively then. After I realised it's making me very tired to do so much expressing, I stretched the timing from 3 hours gradually till 5-6 hours now that I'm back at work. My baby is...

For the first 3 months, my baby did that too. Latched on non stop. I would rely on watching HK drama so that time passes faster and it helps in reducing my stress too.

latch on is better as the supply will go up according to demand. of course, it's very tiring. When I was still on maternity leave, I gave my baby one or two bottles of EBM a day to give myself a break.

Using a pacifier to put the baby to sleep helps to reduce the risks of SIDS. But try not to use it for the first few months if you're breastfeeding, might lead to nipple confusion.

Perhaps you should just let the baby latch on all she wants and continue pumping either before or after her feeds. For myself, I did that for EVERY feed for the first two months and I realised that all the pumping actually made me very tired and the milk supply went down instead. So after that...

Actually if you look at per piece of diaper, I think drypers is the cheapest. Can be as low as 18cents per pc while huggies is around 23cents. I used an excel spreadsheet to calculate when I buy the diapers online. :001_302: I'm using drypers for day and pampers active for night. Am also...

i'm using pump in style advance. So far so good. Actually babies have stored fats to last them for the first few days so there is no need for formula. Do bring the breast pump with you into the hospital so that you can further stimulate your breasts to encourage the milk to come faster. I...

my 4 month old baby is taking 120ml every 2 hours. In fact, he has been drinking that amount since he was 2 month old. He refuses to drink more and he demands for milk every 2 to 2.5 hrs during the day. At night, he will either sleep through the night or wake up for one feed only. Is there a...
