yes you can bf during pregnancy. As long as your gynae says its ok to make love, you can breastfeed. Warning... it is not a fun experience... BUT its really v. v. v. v. worth it!!!!

I've had two kids while breastfeeding. So no, breastfeeding doesn't stop you from getting pregnant at all. Once you have your period, please use contraception... actually, I wouldn't stop using it at all because remember that your egg is released before your period arrives. So might be just...

if your baby is coping fine with regular solid foods, there is no real nutritional need to provide fm or fresh milk. None of my kids took fm or fresh milk til they were much older and asked for it themselves (in other words, they could talk and decide stuff already). as for condensed milk...

if it helps any, nursing thru pgy is worth it! when you get two nurslings at your breast playing and grinning at each other.. your heart will fill til overflowing. Hang in there... it is only for less than 9 mths. *hugs*

actually your nursling will usually know first. They'll start fussing at the breast more and demanding more nursing session. For me, sore nips and just a general sense of a change in my body (i'm pretty sensitive to my body). My mucus changed too... hard to describe how. the longest my...

the switch off light trick may take a few days to work. Basically you're training your baby to differentiate between day and nite. For me, I had noise and lights on the whole day and at night, I'd have a regular routine before bedtime then switch off all the lights. It worked for me as I started...

Doris is Singapore's first LC so she's really experienced. She helped me with my 3rd baby and my problem was solved after meeting her once. She's worth every penny paid in my opinion. And she continues to help via sms or phone calls even after.

my menses resumed usually 3-4 mths after birth and were irregular both before and after. Never knew when I was gonna be fertile. Much of that has to do with the hormone levels a bfg mother experiences. Things like growth spurts or illness can knock our menstrual periods off schedule. during...

immediately after birth there is a golden time when baby is naturally inclined to searching for and latching on to the breast. Its always so much easier to start the bfg journey if you work with nature at this point. Watch this for a little more information - BABYCRAWL

every two hours is great already... I remember my #2 drank every 30mins til she was about 6 mths or it could have been longer... can't remember liao... that was during the day, during the nite, she'd binge for 2-3 hours nonstop then sleep for 4-5 hours. every baby is different. you just...

its totally possible to breastfeed thru a pregnancy.. not the easiest thing to do but doable!! I've done it twice. I really think you need a little time to absorb the news and come to terms with it. Abortion will probably end up not being a really good idea.

do check out fourtrimesters.com Ginny was one of the first hypnobirthing practioners in Singapore. If you'd rather go the DIY route, NLB has a book on Hypnobirthing (chk the catelogue). It comes with a cd that you can play (no need for premium membership).

be the 'white knight saving the damsel' especially if relatives give negative remarks over your parenting choices. Your wife won't be in the right emotional state/mindset to shoot back. Mother your wife... let her mother the baby. One key memory I have with my first baby was growing so...

PRAM I've used combi for two babies. Reason... its small (can go through supermarket aisles and mrt gantryways)... its easy to close with one hand... its light (can pick up with one hand)... it stays closed (some actually pop open and need a latch to stay shut). those factors were important to...

errr.. don't need to buy lah... go to progressivephonics.com I'm using it together with starfall.com with my dd now. She loves the time spent with me. By the way, she thinks its FUN and asks for it. Which I like cos I don't want it to feel like WORK. I spend abt 15 mins per session and have...

agree.. getting the press involved may not work to your advantage all the time. And if you do get them involved you have to be rather careful about what you tell/say to them. Had experience with that once. I'd say spend the money and talk to a lawyer to get sound legal advice. Make sure to...

I birthed a 4.15kg bb with a 38.5cm head circumference all by myself with no medical help. So it can be done. I'm really getting to dislike gynaes who say baby is too big or too small... like our bodies will definitely grow babies that are just the right size for us to deliver don't you think...

I used to boil stock to make my bbs porridge. That was more than enough natural flavouring for them. As for fruits, I usually mixed puree with the cereal powder. That way I knew baby was getting some good fibre together with his meal. When we go out... this was especially easy as I'd freeze...

*hugs* I practice one ear in; one ear out. But its really hard sometimes. You've got a great hubby who's supporting you and loving you. Hope your ds gets better real soon. *hugs*

John Tee.. heard many good things about him but he's super bizi so if you don't have questions for him, the appt is usually very chop chop. which LC did you check with? just curious. as for the tearing/pulling sensation from ur c-section scar, I'd imagine its quite normal as you're making it...
