EDD May 2013

I valiantly fed my bb for first time tonight. Bb drink until shoik n fell asleep straight after. But cl had to ruin it all when he woke up 2 hours later..going on and on say its like he nvr sleep (he was sound asleep for 2 hrs!) . So my fault again lah? So what if he can last 1 hr longer with formula? Sleep one hr less means never sleep? I din even ask her to wait up for me while I bf and she has to make comments like this....so angry!!!!

Hi cony,

As per advised by PD I need to follow the book health. Vaccine for 1 month is hepatitis B-2
As far as I know, it can be done anytime between 4th and 8th week... Our appointment is scheduled for a few days before baby completes 2 months...
Actually, doctor just fills in a page in the health booklet... (4-8 weeks)

hi all , wana ask ,, if after i latch, baby falls asleep then i pump any excess. when the next feed. will have enough milk? cos i haven been pumping. but want to start soon as ill be goin back to work. and will this increase my supply so i can start my storing?
I do like that from baby birth. Yup, get more milk for the next time. But too much during the night, sometimes wake up just to pump. But need to drink a lot of water, tea.

Yes! Don't worry! I have been doing it and no prob at all! Now my fridge is full of BM! U should pump it out of I have excess after latching cos tw milk will spoil if too long in out breast..

I use pigeon storage bag. Not cheap. I agree but avent storage cup can only use 4 times. And Must sterilize each use. So forget it.

Hi ping87, best is drink full ebm but as my gal not used to the breast milk taste now, I just mix some in for her.
Icic. My gal got jaundice problem so I just intro her to formula. So now day time I give her formula, night time breastmilk. But I don't give her bottle feed for breastmilk. I let her latch. She likes breast milk than formula. Honestly, I put in alot of effort teaching her to latch on. Now she on formula, she abut lazy to latch. But still will look for my nipple everytime she hungry..
 
I feel like i'm a super lazy mom.. My bb fully latches, and i'm super lazy to pump.. Only pumped once a day at night when bb missed his feed.. Is it ok?

Hi ping, why do you need to replace breastmilk by formula if baby has a jaundice? Is it doctor's recommendation? Does formula better than BM?

Yes, the doctor recommend me to let baby drink formula so that the jaundice will drop faster. So I let her drink formula in the day time. 12am-8am will be fully latch.

I haven't get the chance to go back poly to check her jaundice due to haze..

Mummies, do take care! Psi drop but pm2.5 still v high. Remember to wear mask!
