2026-08-12Hi everyone, I was recently wondering about endometriosis and wanted to hear from others who have been through it. For those who have endometriosis, were you able to manage your symptoms through lifestyle changes, diet, or other treatments, or did you eventually need surgery? I'm trying to understand what the usual treatment options are and whether surgery is always necessary. Would really appreciate hearing about your experiences, especially what helped with your symptoms and when you decided to see a specialist. Thank you! 🤍

2026-08-13Hi Mummies! In case some of you are not aware of how to fasten your baby's jaundice. I have a small tips for you! I'm a Mummy of 2 now and it works efficiently! Just grab a small pack of Sappan Wood, scientifically known as Biancaea Wood (In Malay we called Kayu Sepang). I got it from those chinese shops that sells all the ginsengs, chinese medical herbs. What you should do is just to boil some water in a pot or kettle. Once boiled, off the stove and put in 7-9 sticks of the Sappan Woods in the pot and let it soak for 5-7mins until the water turns reddish yellow or orangey colour. Once all set, throw the woods away (Or it can be re-use up to 3 times. Keep in a ziplock bag). Pour the water in baby's bath tub. Mix w tap water if the water still hot. For those using kettle, transfer the boiling water into a bowl first. You're most welcome, mummies! 🫶🏻
2026-08-13I’m 1 month in. Been doing pumping every 3 hrs + power pump once a day in the morning. Taking legendairy supplements, tried cash cow for >10 days and now I’m on pump princess & lactivist. Also taking lactation cookies. I’m using spectra dual compact. Supply been 30-60ml per pump. Can’t seem to go up. Is this normal at this stage? How can I increase my milk supply? Is there anyone who had the same situation and eventually milk increase overtime? I’m wondering is there something wrong that it can’t increase. I think most people at this stage is pumping over 100ml?? Could it be I have insufficient glandular tissue or should I try a different pump? Also would like to ask whether pumping 2 hrly helps. Personally I feel 2hrly is pretty intense. But if it helps I’m willing to do it, its just that midnight sometimes I might overslept to 4 hour… Do share with me your bf journey! Thank youuu
