breast massage and hand expressing

would like to check if we should pull and squeeze the nipples during breast massage / to hand express effectively? I've read articles to say it should be gentle pulling but LC in hospital also just squeeze nipples for milk to come out prior to feed and masseuse also does that to release milk I'm a bit confused cos what LC and masseuse did is painful but it really help to release milk and even to the extend of squirting. context: I do have over supply, and usually have engorgement issues. I haven't been very successful at hand expressing as I feel pain to do that on myself and milk only comes out in drops. so am pumping most of the time and latch sometimes.

Hello! This is from what I have learnt from nurses and lactation consultant, and found effective for myself~ I was taught that hand expression isn't really about squeezing the nipple itself - you need to go further back into the wider breast area instead. Placing your hand in a c -or u-shape hold right outside the areola, push inwards towards your chest, before you apply a gentle roll/squeeze. I found that this was a lot less painful than squeezing the nipple tip itself and also helped to stop my engorgement issues (also an oversupplier 🙋‍♀️) as it was removing milk from the deeper tissues effectively 👌 Not sure if I explained properly haha but if it helps, you can search how to hand express on TikTok and there are a lot of video tutorials :)

Hey Parents! Anyone has any recommendations for clinics who does circumcisions in the east? Thank you in advance

If you are looking for recommendations for clinics that perform circumcisions in the east, one suggestion is to consider contacting the KK Women's and Children's Hospital in Singapore. They have a team of experienced healthcare professionals who may be able to provide information on clinics or specialists who offer circumcision services for children. You can reach out to their pediatric department for further guidance on this matter. Additionally, you may want to inquire at private clinics or hospitals in the east region of Singapore, such as Parkway East Hospital or Mount Alvernia Hospital, as they may also offer circumcision services. It's always advisable to do thorough research and consult with healthcare professionals before making any decisions regarding medical procedures for your child. I hope this information helps you in finding a suitable clinic for circumcision in the east region. https://invl.io/cll6she

I am at 38weeks today. Any vbac mums out there can advise?

Hi.. anyone has gone through vbac after 2 csect? Docs are against it due to risk,etc. Well, to me, surgery has risk too! So m trying my best to have a vbac. I have postponed my surgery to a slughtly later date. My last csect was 2.5yrs ago. Anyone can advise or share experience?

I had a successful vbac and a smooth delivery on Jun 3! I've gone through 1 csec due to breech baby. what was your reason for the past 2 csec? I guess overall 2 main things to monitor during labour; 1 is fetal heartbeat 2 is risk of scar rapture if you do feel any pain on your csec scar be sure to let your gyne know.

Left breast milk - jelly substance

Hi mommies, been 2 to 3 days when i pump, my left breast milk got white jellyish substance. Been googling bout it and not sure if it is masititis? My right side seem normal. Also the milk coming out from left side is thicker and seems more yellowish. Any tips or anyone experiencing the same thing? Thank you so much.. really want a smooth BF journey. First time mom here...

It sounds like you may have a condition called "milk bleb" or a "milk blister" on your left breast. This can cause a white, jelly-like substance to appear in your milk. It is not necessarily mastitis, but it's always best to consult with a healthcare professional to confirm the diagnosis. To help relieve the milk bleb and ensure a smooth breastfeeding journey, you can try a few tips: 1. Apply a warm compress or take a warm shower before breastfeeding or pumping to help soften the milk duct. 2. Gently massage the affected area towards the nipple to help clear the blockage. 3. Nurse or pump frequently on the affected side to ensure proper milk flow. 4. Ensure proper latch and positioning while breastfeeding to prevent further issues. If the issue persists or you experience any pain or fever, it's important to seek advice from a lactation consultant or your healthcare provider. Remember, every breastfeeding journey is unique, and it's okay to seek support and guidance when needed. If you're looking for additional support or products to enhance your breastfeeding experience, you may consider using a breast milk enhancer like the one available at this link: [Breast Milk Enhancer](https://invl.io/cll7ha0). Remember, you are not alone in this journey, and seeking help and information is always a positive step towards a smooth breastfeeding experience. https://invl.io/cll6she

Sleeping pattern

Hi. My baby is 2 weeks old. She can't sleep at night. We try to tug her in around 9pm after her feeding. But she ll cry and open her eyes big2. Around 12.30am or more then she can fall asleep. Any tips on how to calm her down and make sure she can sleep earlier? Thank you.

Hello mummy at this point baby still has not learnt how to differentiate night from day, perhaps to help her with this you can play with her more in the daytime so that she knows that light equals to being awake and at night before she sleeps maybe try to dim the lights down and play some white noise to help calm her down and lull her to sleep. Hopefully these tips help.
