Hegen – PCTO™ Double Electric Breast Pump

My EDD is 20 May 2024 and I'm already thinking if i should get the breast pump and milk bottle cause of 11.11. The whole set will be now $665| U.P $849. Isit too early to buy them? Also, anyone used Hegen breast pump before? Isit good? Hegen bottles was recommended by my sister-in-law so I'm gonna get them for sure. Just wondering about the breast pumps. #firsttimemom10weeks

Breastfeeding and accidentally took panadol extra

May I know how many hours after can I start to breastfeed my LO again after accidentally taking Panadol extra? For the time being, I will be using my extra stash in my freezer to feed my baby until I can direct latch again. Thank you in advance for your advises!

1-2 hours to be safe.

Has anybody succeeded in relactation?

Has any mums tried to breastfeed or pump again after 1 month? Have you succeeded and how long did you take? If you are working, how did you manage?

Relactation is possible but it really depends on how your body responds, and it can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks of consistent stimulation before supply builds back up. The key trade-off is that it takes a lot of commitment, frequent pumping or nursing every 2 to 3 hours, which is tough if you are back at work. If you are working, some mums manage by pumping during lunch and breaks, and nursing more frequently at night and on weekends to keep the signal going. It may be worth speaking to a lactation consultant, as they can assess your situation and give you a realistic picture of what to expect for your body specifically. It is not guaranteed, but many mums have done it lah, so it is worth trying if you feel strongly about it.

Breast pump parts fridge hack

Hello mummies, Heard about fridge hack for breast pump parts where you’ll keep the pump parts in a zip lock and place them in the fridge, and only wash and sterilise them at the end of the day. So, do i need to rinse off the residue before keeping or no need? Or rinse with water before my next use? TIA!

no rinse..I hVe used the hack before but mine is secondhand pump so the parts tend to drop off during pumping for 2nd time. especially the yellow parts like the backflow preventer

Baby refusing breastmilk

Did not have any breastmilk for first 4 days and baby was at risk of jaudice coz no intake. So we started giving formula milk. Now that BM has kicked in, we wanted feed baby BM together with FM (coz BM amount still very low) but baby is rejecting the BM (cries when we feed BM), so we mixed BM and FM. After an hour of feeding, baby kept crying... how to get baby to go back to BM and away from FM? Would like to exclusively feed BM after amount is huge enough to support full BF.

Powerpump sometimes nothing cameout on the 2nd or 3rd sesh. My left also not very much. Any advice? Im on oat biscuit for snacks and mama’s choice milk booster. How long will i see an increment? Its hard to pump on day time cuz LO takes shortnap then disrupt my pumping session #pleasehelp #advicepls

Hi, I’m currently 33weeks pregnant and still direct breastfeeding my 2y2m toddler. Have stop pumping since my toddler 3months old. Decided to start pumping but it come out a few drops only, is it normal? What should I do?

It’s normal cause your milk is turning into colostrum to prepare for your newborn’s arrival. You can start pumping or latching again when baby is out 😊.
