Back to work 1 week and jadelle is 13 weeks old!

Ok, i survived 1 week of work! And, it was tough. Expressing at work is stressful, disruptive and super inconvenient at my workplace! i try to express min. 3 times a day, and aim to express 4 times.. am expressing 180-220ml per day only. which is enough for 2 feeds only? This means that Jadelle on some days might have to drink some formula milk to tide over until i am back home..

I miss her so much at work this week, and am still adjusting to life in the office after baby.. My bosses are loading me back with my projects.. with the expressing that i need to do in the office, and me trying to return home ASAP to latch Jadelle back on.. it is extremely hard to concentrate 100% on my work.

I have to express in the handicap toilet, but as i am not used to a pump, it is hard for me to have a letdown! As such, my pumping time is 1 hr, even with a dual electric pump (by the way, i actually have to pull extension cord into the toilet! How bad and embarrassing can that get?)

I am actually expressing now, hoping to stimulate my breasts to produce more milk and get used to the pump so that letdown iz easier. This is easier said then done!

Just back from a gathering with the August mummies from the internet forum. So fun to see and compare the babies! Never been to one! And today's gathering actually was filmed down by a TV crew for their new programme to be broadcast in December! Can't wait to see Jadelle on camera..


Hm, a new year is approaching! My wishlist?? LOTS! Here goes:

1) I can express enough milk to feed Jadelle
2) More $$
3) A breastfeeding friendly workplace!
4) Get a new job that i really like with new challenges but yet, don't need me to sacrifice time with Jadelle & AK..
5) That Jadelle don't get addicted to TV from the long hours her grandma put her in front of it.
6) Jadelle DO NOT PICK UP broken languages from her grandparents that is totally incorrect.
7) Jadelle can finally sleep through the night and in her own bed!
8) AK and i have more "us" time together..
9) more LV and coach bags!
10) To start my own niche online business that will earn $$ by itself!
11) Get back my flat tummy!
12) Stretchmarks begone!
13) That everyone i love be healthy and fine..:)

Will be bring Jadelle for her 5 in 1 jab @ polyclinic tomorrow.. hope all goes well!
