shanice99, babies with jaundice their appetite is not so good... 30ml every 2hrs? My son is currently taking 60ml to 80ml every 4 to 5 hrs... Keep on pumping out the excess breast milk and freeze it for future use... and pumping it out will help to increase breastmilk supply... I also keep pumping and store in freezer...
My cl feed her 40 ml. I send u my hp le.

Jaundice can kick in at a later stage... when my no.1 discharge, 7 days later then jaundice appear but very low and slowly drop but i stop bm and use formula... i only carried on bm after she is cleared of jaundice...

For no.2, jaundice appeared immediately after discharge and raises very quickly... First 3 days of discharge, baby not eating well, not pooing and not peeing... almost every alternate day got to return to polyclinic to check if jaundice level reach high risk or not... Luckily when he start to pee and poo, he eats better and jaundice level drop... Later got to bring him back to polyclinic for a check... hopefully all still well and dropping... if not, i think i will stop bm and give him formula instead...

MrsWang, dun worry about low supply, keep latching, massaging and take supplements for milk production if possible..For no.1 my supply started to come in after 2 weeks... Then i think no.1 and no.2 the age gap quite close so this time round my milk production is faster...

For those who pm me their contacts, I have received and will set up the whatapps group... for those who wanna join us in whatapps, dun forget to m me your contact...

Lingz12, I m seeing the pd tomolo as well. My gal's jaundice dun look good too... hope she will not be retained tomolo. My gal is also very sleepy... so she suck very slow... my breasts r hard n sore too...she tend to sleep while sucking thn when I put her on bed, she want milk. .. I have been feeding n putting her to sleep since 3am to 8am thn only manage to get 1 hr sleep cause my #1 keep disturbing me.

My #1 got so jealous, each time she sees me carry bb, she will want me to carry also... haiz. .. can't rest now cause #1 keep going in n out of the room...

Im having problems with latching my boy.. he can latch but I tink it's a poor latch.. I have got a row of blisters now and it's super pain every time he latches.. and this morning, my nipple bleed.. sobz.. keep trying to make him open his mouth bigger but he doesnt wan.. and my supply haven come in.. so I latch to stimulate before supplementing with fm, hopefully he will pee and poo more to clear jaundice..

Yest my #1 saw her didi for the first time.. it was super bad timing cos #2 was crying.. my #1 got so scared tat she cried too.. wen didi calmed down, she was ok and went to sayang him.. then this morning she requested to bao bao her didi.. so I make her sit down and put #2 on her lap.. She was so happy.. Like playing with a doll.. but she still tend to be a bit rough with didi.. I tink too excited.. so still trying to teach her..

jaundice

I m unsure if this helps but my confinement nanny says switching on the white light in the night (whole night) can improve jaundice. Mommies, you may try.
My no.1 daughter was also turing yellow but improved after confinement nanny did tt.

It's probably just one of those routine escalating checklist that they have. Dont worry!! Baby will get better through the week!! =)

My little gal is also down with jaundice. She has been in the intensive care since day 2. She turns 1 week old today, unlikely doctor will discharge her tomorrow. My first mothers' day will be without her by my side. Other mummies who also have to deal with jaundice, do give your little ones regular feeds. Peeing and pooing regularly helps to clear the jaundice. This is what the doctor told me.
