2020-12-21Hi mommies, I gave birth 9 days ago and DL my bb since day 1. My breast gets v hard and firm quickly despite being on a 2-3hr feeding schedule as he has jaundice. I’ll use a haakaa or hand express(breasts feels a bit sore after, idk if I’m overdoing it😕) if I still feel slightly full after feeding but idk how to tell if it’s completely empty?? Idk how soft the breast should be. Is it normal to be engorged so quickly despite being on a 2-3hr feed or is it a early wks pp thing that will go away? #advicepls

2020-12-23Is it advisable to buy breast pump in advance (while you are still in second trimester)? I thought of using the year end promo sales to buy it. But one elder adviced against it saying it depends on how much milk I will be having. If too less then breast pump is not needed. How long will we be breastfeeding usually? Btw I'm not working currently. Will be getting back to work force after the baby is 5-6 months. So for SAHM is breast pump needed? Sorry if this sounds dumb. I'm a first trimer.

Because of him I have to quit my job and take care of my daughter. He have not been working since last year before cny. He didn't even pay of my gayne . We didn't stay together until my daughter is born. Worse is that he say that I can't ask him for money. I left with no money.

2020-12-23What baby things are recommended to be bought in advance? I thought of buying breast pump now in second trimester. But after getting some advice from few mommies I decided to wait until giving birth.

What other things can be bought in advance (that won't take much space)

2020-12-24Hi mummy out there, How to build bond with you son. All along since he was birth i have been taking care of him and breastfeeding him. Just after I ended my maternity leave I have to go back work and mil is the only one who take care of him and I only can see him after my work. Now that he was 21 months old he is v closed to my mil. And v needy for her, she and the husband also tried to divert his attention away from me. When ever he called mama they will say ah ma or papa and he doesn't want to call me anymore. I feel so upset that I have drifted far apart from him. I dont know how to handle this anymore. I feels so heartbreaking. ):

2020-12-24Does anyone take Famotidine to treat acid reflux while pregnant? I am currently in my third trimester and my gynae prescribed this to treat my very bad acid reflux. I am afraid the medicine will not be good for my baby but my acid reflux is so bad that I have to take it every day if not I will not be able to sleep no matter what I do: eat earlier, avoid certain food like spicy food, sleep on the left, prop my pillow higher etc. #advicepls

2020-12-24Hi all mummies, My lo is 2 years old 2 mths. Her weight is 10.4kg. I’m so worried her as she not gain her weight. She eat well 3 times a day with solid foods, drink formula once a day. Please advise.
2020-12-24Only a sahm for 2 years plus, i feel lonely and jealous sometimes when husband spends a lot of his time out with his friends while I'm 'stuck' at home with the kids 24/7. I feel guilty for feeling 'stuck at home w the children' and wanting some time for myself. ☹️ Why do mothers have to sacrifice our freedom(also our bodies and literally everything) while the fathers get to do whatever they want guilt free.... Really hard to find a dedicated father/husband who's willing to spend more time w family/wife rather than choosing to always go out w friends. Totally understand that he needs time to unwind after work but its like he gets to go out every week sometimes twice a week while myself only once or twice every other month. Just getting to shower alone feels like such a luxury......... I feel like I'm always complaining but all my complaints always fall on deaf ears. He says ok but still insists going out just a 'short' while but comes home late n is too tired the next day to spend time w the children or me even. Pls tell me im not alone feeling this way. Sighhhh.
2020-12-24I’m using spectra S1+ the pump is working well, but it does not clear my breast effectively. After a 30 - 40 mins pump, I can still hand express a significant amount. Had already massage before and between pumps, make sure ducts are not block and it’s still not working. #advicepls

2020-12-25Hello, It's been a week since I found out I was pregnant and confirmed in the polyclinic I went. An estimated prediction of pregnancy was 7 weeks. I had talks with the father of the child, he was actually happy about the whole pregnancy (he haven't think about the future yet, but was just happy that he could be a father). After a few days and confirmation of pregnancy, we had a talk about our future and also a referral to KKH for scans. I told him that if he did not want the baby, we should go ahead for abortion and not waste more money on scanning and all - which he did think and he also was given a few days to 'calculate' and think about our future. I was actually heading towards abortion because it was too sudden and we are not that ready both financially and because of our families (my family doesn't like him a lot and his mother don't like me at all) But because he was so happy earlier on when I broke the news, I was very invested in trying to ensure I take good care of my body for the pregnancy and maybe my thoughts changed for abortion. When he came back to me upon going through all the reflections and thinking, he told me maybe abortion would be a better choice for our situation. I was half happy because it was something I wanted but at the same time I cried alot at the choice he had also decided, it was maybe because I was so invested in this whole pregnancy I wanted to keep the baby - even though I am worried about the future. Please advice if it would be better to go for abortion instead of giving birth in this situation because I am torn on this.

2020-12-26Hi everyone. Recently, i did a pregnancy self test and it is positive. Due to a past miscarriage experience which happened few months ago, i am worried about this pregnancy. So i fixed an appointment with my gynae although the date is less than 8 weeks since i missed my period. Then i started to have constipation and pain at my abdomen region. Is it a cause for concern? Should i push forward my gynae appointment? Some female friends told me they could be symptoms of ectopic pregnancy. So i am very worried.
2020-12-26hi any recommended female gynaes at kkh? thanks

2020-12-26Hi mummies. This question is especially for the Malay mummies. Do you pantang after giving birth? I just gave birth a week ago via c section and currently I don’t follow the pantang rules so much. I only watch what I eat (ate confinement food) and of course just ensure that I don’t do heavy housework or carry heavy things and all. I also wear the binder to keep my incision in place. That’s all. I don’t wear socks and jacket as it’s already so hot at home. I don’t use that creamy paste thing to smear on the forehead nor on tummy like our mothers and grandmothers do during the olden days. I’m an educated and smart woman who knows science and logic. Sometimes all these pantang rules are just a hassle and frankly, they may add to our baby blues/ postpartum depression. Like, cannot do this, cannot do that. Just wondering if there are mummies who don’t pantang at all.
