time is moving forward fast..

Wow, been a while since i last posted.. Jadelle's first month came and went with great success.. been a while since i met so many friends.. especially after being cooped up in the house with the baby..

So happy to finally dress up a little and stop feeling so "auntie".. My confinement lady finally left on monday.. and wow.. really missed her.. she also cried when going back home.. my tears can't help dropping lor..

Its been a week, me and baby @ home.. and its been a great bonding session.. yes, sometimes, feel so tired.. especially in the evenings when she fusses and cries non-stop. Still, i think i take her crying more then my PIL, my hubby.. haha..

Am so glad that i have help and company in morning from my mum's maid. Otherwise, i dunno how to go toilet etc when bb is awake! And thanks to my PIL also for coming over to help with baby when i need an extra pair of hands.. and thanks also to my dear lao gong.. who, though super tired from work, still will jump out of bed to help me with baby..

My birthday ah.. finally turned 28.. haha.. AK and I deposit baby with my PIL and went ot eat sakae sushi.. wow.. really miss the sashimi.. but, my appetite like dropped leh.. since the confinement..

Regarding breastfeeding and bottle feeding and formula feeding.. my milk isn't that fantastic.between 50-70ml now expressed out? I tried the avent isis, avent uno, and now the avent duo.. but quantity stays the same, though the time taken to pump is so much shorter for the dual pump. I really dunno how to input pumping sessions into my latching on.. plus, my girl is so fussy at the bottle, she insists on being latch on after a bottle feed, especially in the evening!

I do give my girl FM, but she never take more then 90ml at one time? and sometimes, only 60ml! but of cos, most of the time, i do latch her on for a while before i give her FM, cos i can feel that my breast isn't very soft and she cries after a while of being latched on, especially in evenings. I count myself lucky that though i bottle feed her, she still latches on well on my breast. now, i only hope i can increase my milk supply even more. Thinking of buying a avent duo and hope it will help me to stimulate my breasts to increase milk production..

Went out a couple of times with baby, in a sling, stroller and nursed her in public everytime, cos she fusses and insists on the breast especially in evening.. so far, ok lah. i dun care what others think leh.. since, my priority is to feed my girl! but i do have nursing tops lah.

I brought Jadelle for her hep. B jab myself and phew.. it is tough going out with her alone manz! I do wish i have enough milk to feed her outside without bottle feeding, cos, going out shopping will be much less barang barang.. btw, she weighs 4.17kg at the weigh in.. gained 1kg from her birth weight and more then 1 kg from her discharged weight.. am so glad.. even if my milk flow dropped later on, at least i BF her for 1 month..

realised that i am back to work next month end! ouch! hope i can get another job ASAP!

My weight? hm, still got to lose 2kg more.. can wear all my tops, but my bottoms.. sigh.. and my tummy.. SIGH...... my brand new bikini.. sob sob.. think i can't wear it for a while liaoz..
