Sorry that I've been missing for a while
Dear all,
Sorry that I've been away for a while. Things have been busy for both of us recently, but I've managed to upload some photos taken of Alison Jaydina when she was 1-1/2 months old.
How time flies...She's going to be 4 months old soon. Gonna be a big girl :) Alison's healthy and well and it's great to see her being so responsive pertaining to her gestures, laughs, body language etc. She's learning to flip over to her side now...so it will be success anytime soon :)

Growth Rate vs Milk Consumption
I'm currently doing both breast & bottle feeding as my breastmilk supply is still low. Are there guidelines as to when one should increase the quantity of a formula feed?
Per guidelines & instructions, i'm feeding my child 60ml from the bottle. If its deemed insufficient for her, I'll feed her regularly based on the 60ml guideline.
When should i increase it to 70ml or 80ml? are there guidelines as to how much milk a child should consume based on their growth rate?
Cheers. Linda

Alison Jaydina
Alison Jaydina is now nine days old :)
I've registered her birth yesterday, and receiving her birth certificate brought a smile to my face. Funny how little things like these can bring a smile to my face.
Looking at her every gesture during these nine days is amazing - even if she does eat & sleep most of the time. Every movement, every gesture of how she wants her feed, rejects her feed, the way she smiles whilst dozing away to dreamland :)
Those are the nice moments, although the incess… Continue

No Breastmilk
Hi All,
I've just delivered my baby on 20 March, but till now I dont have any milk inside my breasts.
I've tried massaging my breasts, the baby has suckled on my breasts, using warm pads, even using the breast pump to assist in milkflow - but there's still no milk coming out from my ducts.
Not even colostrum.
Am I just dry? Is there such a thing?
Regards, Linda

I hope the breastfeeding is going well..isn't it the best? :)
take care you both! :)
Both of us are equally big, but I feel & look gorgeous from the pictures taken on that day :)
The picture actually reflects my birthday lunch celebration put together by my colleagues. I hope to be able to find some like-minded mums, look out for pointers which I'm sure that experienced mums at BMums can offer to a first time mum like me.
Happy Holidays To You & Your Family :)
Linda
