Hihi.. i was under general anesthesia.. which means i am still awake while the whole procedure was carried out..
i can feel my gynae cutting open me but no pain.. when my gynae is gonna carry my baby out.. theu ask my hubby to enter the op theater..
the whole process took abt 30 mins

So you ladies who have already given birth do think it a good idea to bring the pump along in the hospital bag, just in case?

Hibi din bring mine cos my hospital bag is too full. For me I din use cos usually will latch bb on directly which is better. Furthermore usually breastmilk won't come in so fast. Usually on day 3-5. But u could bring yours in case yr milk come in earlier or breast too engorged?

oh bcos she mentioned that she took general anesthesia and she was awake throughout for i know that if u have GA, u'll be asleep throughout.

epidural means u will be awake, gerneral anesthesia means u fall asleep. epidural is like a painkiller to stop yr pain, thats all.

hi, at least u hv 50ml every time u pump! I only hv tis much for my first early morning pump. Subsequently is only 20-30ml each time. N I get 135ml per day only! So sad...

i tried taking fenugreek, d milk got doubled but stop there though I increase d dosage. Not sure will be down If I stop taking. I hv been drinking lots of hot liquids, papaya soup, fish soup, taking lots of fish too. I heard taking lots of vinegar (pork leg vinegar) helps too but I hv yet to try out!

Maybe u can try hot compress or massaging yr (.)(.) each time b4 pump. It helps for me as I got some block ducts. Try to dl yr bb every 3 hrs too n pump out in between. It's gonna b tiring though. Good luck n we shall try our best!

Hi i think u had the same case as me last time. U probably hv blocked ducts on ur left breast. Did u feel any hard lumps on ur left breast? If yes u could always hot massage ur breast everytime u latch n also expess so tat the blocked ducts will b clear. It will get better if u persist. Hope tat helps. :)
