Hi all, I just given birth to my baby boy on 16oct. My boy has jaundice and he is on total breastmilk. I was so upset when my boy needs to b hospitalized for his high jaundice. I kept crying. To make matter worse, my CL and mil sort of blame my bm for his jaundice n wants me to stop bm n give him formula.. I have been latching him since he's born, I'm afraid that once bottle feed him, he will not latch on anymore.. N my CL doesn't want to cup feed him.. Sigh, I feel so depressed.. I couldn't carry him long coz my c-sec wound occasionally still hurts.. I feel so sad when others can carry n play with my baby.. The only bonding time I feel is when I latch him on.. If he doesn't latch on anymore, I'll feel even more devastated..

Don't be sad!! My baby has jaundice too since Day 1 and now he is 5w 4d and still having jaundice! But it's a downward trend.. If u have enough supply, cont BF.. FM might make jaundice go away faster but BM is not the only cause for jaundice.. Even if that's the cause, IT'S SAFE AND OK TO CONT BF. Tell ur CL and MIL to go and do research. I don't und y old ppl love to "promote" FM.. Even my mom wanted to give my boy FM and I actually told my mum off! If u need more info and advice, I actually opened another thread abt this issue.. BF Babies with Jaundice.

Hi CheerieGer, i gave birth on the 12th and wanted total breastfeeding without doing much research before my delivery, and now i am suffering as this is the 3rd week and my milk flow is slow still. Hence, she has been on bottle-feeding since the day 4 and i took quite a while to get her to latch again starting this week to help increase my flow. She is not very willing to latch all the time, i have to find perfect timing to get her to latch and both of us is improving each day even with her regular bottle-feeding sessions. She can now nurse and at the same time, top it up with bottefeed. That was my experience...

I felt if you are giving enough to baby by nursing, there is no need for bottle-feeding tho....
As for wound, are you wearing a band around the waist? It did help me to feel less painful...pain killer helps (a lot) too...you can still nurse with these 2 impt items for c-sec mom.

Think best is to check with your PD.
For my case, my bb is having jaundice too, sun bath for 20 over days and has been 1 mth old still not recovering :(
At first my PD told me to give BM regardless of jaundice. But probably since its not recovering and jaundice level went up, he advice me to stop BM and full FM for a week to see...

Hi all, thanks for ur comments and advices.. It's been so busy and since this is my first child, many things I don't know and am very worried and anxious.. Thankfully, my boy's jaundice had finally came down to 4.4 level.. My pd say I can give him more bm.. But I got another problem now.. Coz previously, pd ask me to give formula to my bb.. Now my bb is coughing badly with alot of phlegm! My friends said formula might b too heaty for him.. He vomited his phlegm out once yest. Today he vomited his milk out.. I'm so stressed and feel so helpless watching my boy coughing n coughing and he seems so uncomfortable.. :_(

Any mummies here who has encountered babies having cough with phlegm?? What can I do to help my boy feel better? I have seen his pd yest, told him about his cough but he hasn't vomit then. After we got home in the late afternoon, he vomited once.. Call pd and he said to monitor.. This morning at 5plus he vomited again while drinking bm.. Wanted to bring him down to Kk a&e but my hubby say I'm being too paranoid and wants to wait for pd clinic to open instead.. I'm so worried n feel so helpless.. What can I do to make him feel better?

It's getting so difficult to burp him, he will keep moving n stretching.. N sometimes, we can try to pat him for so long and he doesn't burp at all... Sigh.. Anyway, i will give enfa a try.. Thanks for sharing!
