Am I doing it right?

Hi mummies, I’ve kept up with a growing stock of breast milk in my freezer that is 10 days ago. What I’ve been doing is continue with my current pump and freezing my newly pumped milk while feeding my baby the older batch of frozen milk. Is this okay or i should always give freshly expressed milk? Another thing is by freezing the milk means I’ve to get alot of storage bags which are not so environmental friendly and costly… plus they take up fridge space. Advice or comments?? Ps: I’m not latching my baby yet as she doesn’t like it. #plsadvise

Giving frozen milk is totally fine! You can even give ur baby frozen BM that is up to 1 year ago but optimally, use within 6 months. If baby is fine with ur frozen BM, don't really need to give fresh milk. But u may also alternate fresh and frozen for different feeds just so tt baby cld get the best nutrients and antibodies frm ur fresh BM at certain times of the day. There are other kinds of reusable milk storage bags but it's kinda hard to find in SG. Can try searching online. Or use Avent milk storage cups, though tt will take up more space in the freezer. For me, sometimes I use the milk cups if I just want to chill in the fridge but gotta use it within 3-4 days. Or u can use food cube trays. I used this in the first month when I was battling with low supply. I cld barely fill even half of the storage bag. So I poured my milk into 2oz food cube trays. It was rather convenient too as my baby was drinking abt 120ml so I just had to take out 2 cubes to warm it up.

Try nursing bras? https://shopee.sg/product/83318079/1433519166?smtt=0.18947-1650900944.9 I personally wore 6ixty8ight wireless bralettes thru out my entire pregnancy & my boobs feels fine 😂 I don’t think they carry that design anymore but you can go down and try on to decide which one feels more comfy for you. 😊

Is this normal?

My 4months+ son’s left side area nappy area has peeled off skin. I thought it was diaper rash at first but it got bigger it almost look like shedding new layer of skin. He doesn’t seem like in pain because he didn’t cry when i touched the area. I changed to desitin diaper cream (previously been using Pureen) and applied Mustela cicastela cream on the areas that are peeling off & ensured the area is completely dry before application . My mum said it was because i put too much diaper cream that caused the dryness. Shouldn’t it be applied generously? Or was it because of his diaper size? He’s currently using size S, weighing 6.9kg and I thought I shouldn’t size up yet because the tapes are always touching each other when put on. Please advise! #pleasehelp #firstmom #sos #diaperrash #plsadvise #helpandrespect

Is this normal?

I would suggest to change to pull up instead of tape. I make a switch of not just diaper brand but to pants diaper as it is easier and better to gauge if diaper too small or big. My 9 months old currently using size L diaper from Merries. I make the switch at 4 months onwards. That look like a dry skin, stop using diaper cream instead put on baby lotion or nothing at all to avoid further peeling off.
