Successfully Breast feed for 6 mths!

[sharonyi66]

I'm so happy and I just wanna share my joy!!

Today, Inez turned 6mths old and me too had successfully breastfeed her for 6mths! Didn't believe I can do it.. *sob sob*

Not an easy journey of breastfeeding.. Blocked ducts, cracked and sore till bleed nipple, infections till fever, even infection till got pus drip out I also got it but still, I told myself not to give up for the sake of Inez's health. Afterall babies depend on us, their mother for their 'food', their best food aka breast milk.

I'm really so happy that I've 'passed' the minimum requirement of 6mths as I never know I could do it coz 5 yrs back I only managed to BF Fayth for bearly 1mth..

So those still struggling to BF mummies, 加油!

When Fayth was full month, I'm so busy and shag till I can ignore my breast. From then, i stopped bf already. I also nv feed Fayth bm frequently. Can say tat last time I got v little knowledge of breastfeeding.

The duration of me breastfeeding also improved with the number of kids I have but I still have lots to learn about breastfeeding

CONGRATS! The WHO gold standard (minimum 1 year) can be your new goal now. Go for it! You can do it! I am also working towards it. =)

Congrats you!!! I know the feeling and sometimes I wonder how I did it all but I'm glad I did, especially when I see how happy and active she is.

Now you can join me in the Gold WHO club wannabe - I'm trying to make it to one year. Have over four more months to go! We can ALL do it!

Yes, sometimes I can't even discribe the wonderful feeling, especially seeing her from a low birth weight baby born at 2.4kg now to a healthy chubby 7kg 6mths old baby.

When people told me she doesn't look like a low weight baby at birth, I'm so happy coz I knw is my effort in breastfeeding that make her strong and gain weight fast.

Ok, let's walk towards the Gold goal!!

Yeah. I used to express milk together with a group of nursing mothers in my previous company. The encouragement and support I had then was really great. Now that I have the same supporting group here, the great feeling is the same!!ancing_tongue:

Hubby and I also wanna have four eventually. We are one down, three more to go!!! ;p

 

[adelynn]

Congrats!! It's indeed not easy and it's a feat! I'm also working towards the 6 months mark myself.

Went for my girl's 4th mth check up and her height & weight is in the 25%. PD (PCC @ KK) said that my BM was not 'nutritious' enough thus her growth slowed down and recommended me to introduce FM. Although deep down i refuse to believe it but i do ask if it's indeed the case
