Oh yeas how was the 1st day at school?

Nunuza – that’s bad but its good I like it. I like my milk leaking sounds weird but at least I know there is milk in there,

Oh yeah less than 10 weeks to go. Tell me about the kicks, I get kicked in the bladder and the ribs (well I don’t know if it’s a hand arm or foot) but sometimes they are very hard and painful. He is so active I am wondering if he ever sleeps in there,

Hi Ladies

GML how was the first day feedback from school. Mine is doing is doing grade 3 we were helping her holding her stationery then left as she chase us away.

MommywannaB I had manual breast pump didnt have a problem with milk i would literaly change two nightdress coz i will be wet. she started formula when she was 9months used to express for her.

Ladies we getting there already my baby is kicking like nobody's business.

Oh wow now I know. Gees there is a lot I have to still learn lol.

It's awesome to have a mom they always give the best advice.

That’s what I love about our group and this forum everyone gives a lil bit advise and helps clueless moms like me.

You're welcome.

You must remember though that with formula one has to give baby water with honey or brown sugar to avoid constipation. It would be a real shame not to do that. In my case when he woke up earlier than expected, I gave him water and fed him in his usual time given that he put himself on a 4 hour routine.

I had no idea my child was still hungry, he was niggly and irritable until my mom suggested I give him 25ml top and see. At first he couldnt finish it was he wasnt irritable either. So when we went to the pediatrician he advised that once he finishes the 25ml then we make 50ml and so on. So if he doesn't finish 50ml it means he is full and you can monitor how much he eats. We found that actually only increased the mls every 3weeks or so.

Hi GML – Wow you are one lucky woman. A lot of ladies I spoke to had problems with their milk.

I would really like to only breast feed him without a to up but if it’s necessary I will have to. I can remember my little niece got so constipated when her mom changed to formula.

That’s actually a very good idea to let the rest of the family bond with baby in that way.

Thank you for the input, I think what I should do is wait until he is born and see how things go. I will speak to the lactating consultant as well and see what she suggests.

How is everyone doing?
