Mine is a daughter. It hasn't been a problem expressing breastmilk for me (always have excess, then store in freezer)
She always cry to seek for attention!!
I am going to work in 2 weeks time, still looking for babysitter :(

son is 3m 1 wk, have been expressing all these while and supply quite low. Express 4-5 times a day, each time only 100-120ml, not much to store and will be traveling for work next week, really wanna be able to store up enuff for him. so far have been taking motherlove's goat's rue but still not really improving. is it the pump, or is it just me?:err:

my son is 4 months now.

ever since i go back work, in law taking care of him. i find he change a lot.i have to keep sing him song and sayang him to sleep now. its so hard for us.in law everytime tell us to carry him when he cry.he become used to it.but cannot like that let him.because whenever i put him down to bed he starts to cry again.in laws dont listens how i wanted them to take care. it is very difficult for me and my husband.

every night so tire and morning wakeup in law still sleeping nv help us take care baby and prepare breakfast so we wnt late for work.

due to over stress of my body, i am now down with sickness. need to take blood test every month and eat medicine every morning every day until sickness recovers.my water retention and bloatness is getting worst and im now under treatment too.

im now looking for baby sitter to help.but i cnt affort to pay too much.

She's now 4 mths and 3 weeks old.

I opted to be a SAHM. But in laws worry that I might not be able to cope, hence hubby's grandmother accompany me at home. At least can now eat and do chores in peace.

However like Temari's in laws, they also insist to carry baby when she cries, that she very bad-tempered must carry/sayang her or else if she loses temper very hard to control already etc etc. Even putting her to sleep also must carry. I have to keep proving myself to them, and when it can be done, then they realised "oh actually can like that..."

Nowadays, they are the ones who carry her to sleep, if in my hands, I'll usually put her on the bed, think she got used to it already. Hubby used to scold his parents that they are spoiling her and if she don't want to sleep at night and wants to be carried, he'll bring her to their room, and let them take care.

Temari, why don't u think it this way... Your in laws are doing this out of love for ur son.... so try your best not to get angry or frustrated... Every baby is different... They will learn how to soothe themselves to sleep eventually.. Moreover... hugging them more gives security which attributes confidence and better behavior...
Kids are really smart these days.... but manupilative crying only starts from abt 9 mths... Don't worry... you are doing a great job as a mummy... *= )

haha, i think mine starts on manipulative crying already......
Case in hand, she love having her paternal grandfather carry her. once I was feeding her, and she was suckling the bottle quietly..and the grandfather walked pass and talked to her, she immediately starting whining to him leading to a really reall pitiful cry (like I beat her like that), so he had no choice but to carry her..and she immediately around to hubby(who was siting at the opposide end) and smile at him!!

babies seem to know who to 'makan'. he bullies me and manja my parents, they carry him all the time and when he cries, all will fuss over him. in a way it is good coz i work and my son has no father so grandparents shower attention onto him.

btw, have your babies flipped? mine refuses to flip. dont know if he's lazy or slow.
