hi gal,
usually CL charge higher during CNY period. Some even go double, but my CL aunty Yu Ying told me that's the market. You have to book now if your EDD is during CNY, cos if the CL is malaysian, they may want to come later or have a few days break in between then come back again to fulfill the 28 days. Some rather not to take any jobs, go find one good one early.
I did leave my CL lady, aunty Yu Ying's number here with VELO, u go through and call her, she may be able to advise u.

Hi gal, any recommendation for day time CL? I am think whether to get a stay in CL or day time CL, as I am planning for breatfeeding so even she stay in can't help much for night feeding as I still need to get up. Anyone breatfeeding still feel is better to have a stay in CL

I'll recommend stay in CL as the charge is not much different.

Hi, Im sharing my elder sister's experience. She had stay-in CL from Malaysia, and she's trying to BF as much as possible. But you may wish to consider stay-in vs day time for the following reasons:
a) $$ charges probably not so different?
b) how sure you are that you will 100% be TBF? harder to convert for CL to stay-in halfway through the 28 days.
c) stay-in CL can help with other things such as nappy change? other than feeds?
d) If you are too tired halfway, or you producing too much or BB not taking as much, you may be able to express and store in freezer. Then Stay-in CL can help you take over the night feeds so you can have MORE rest. (not sure if fatigue or stress can affect your 'production' levels)

just some random thoughts

yes, stress level & fatigue may affect supply but it's pretty erratic during the early weeks so it'll be good to co-sleep so that baby can have his/her food while mummy can have her beauty sleep(that's what I've been doing:tlaugh:).

Hi Elaine01,

Could you kindly give me the contacts of ur CL?
My edd is mid to late Jan 2010
Thanks alot! :)

so sorry but my CL fully booked. The next assignment she can take is probably early July onwards. You can call her & ask her to recommend her jie-mei.

A good CL you need to book at least 6 months in advance.:Dancing_wub:

not sure for day time but think around the same price....y don't get night one? I find night better as there're things that we can't forseen...for mi i was sick for few days as well as my girl, my CL helps mi alot...during first few days bb sleeps with me as i'm more comfort with that...but when i was sick, CL really helps a lot, my bb sleeps w her, when bb hungry, CL brings to me...N one common thing is bb will get phelgm so at least CL is w us throughout, she'll help us out during night....cos when bb has phelgm, diff to lay down to sleep, got to sleep one side or carry....we r doing confinement, not possible to keep carryi her...CL can help....unless we got other helpers at home then it's ok..
