nickit:
tat's the prefect statement tat they made that made me wan to prove them wrong more.
normally, i jus fire back by "Ok, sure"
short n simple n nice. explainin too much to them no use.

always drink hot/warm water.
btw, my wife took lots of boiled red dates water too and she said it helps...
i think u can throw in some wolfberries too

i remember in chinese herbal studies, dried longan can relieve fatigue.

dried longan, wolfberries & red dates should make a nice drink too...
always drink hot drinks

of coz can!..i always order barley water when i'm out for lunch during workign days..

phythia, will order barley water next time when we eat out (if that's going to happen)... can i boil the fenugreek in the electric boiler? like the one in hotel? coz i dun dare to use any pots in the house...

ijnek, i wish i could but i couldn't... so i just keep it inside... coz i'm all alone in this... if my mum then i would but this is hb's mum... after the cold war i already have keep everything inside... sigh... i will take note of the drink...

i overturned my ebm bottle today~! did i just destroy the nutrients?? wah~!! there was lots of bubbles on top... this is the second time i dropped the bottle... xian...

Urrm...you can try..just dunno if it may damage the electric kettle...

as for the nutrients..i'm not too sure about that if it's destroyed. I think should still be ok lar..

I know how you feel...i once dropped the whole bottle..and it spilled... heart so pain..hard work down the drain..

phythia, ya lo... sometimes when hb say feed fm i would like coz it's all hard work doing pumping, watching our diets, looking out for wat to eat to increase supply, etc...

ah... he still wanted fm coz "u'll eventually need to use it... if u're sick how to bf or produce milk?" i dun wanna get into that bm/fm argument anymore... sick n tired of it... sigh... dun even mention abt stashing ebm in the freezer coz there's no place for me... sigh...

sigh..nevermind lar..you just do your best k?

I'm lucky that everyone never say like that to me before..but now..a bit headache...coz every one is asking..when i'm stopping breastfeeding..son already 1.5yo...heheheheh

nicKit,

Have you tried the bags yet?

phythia, will u go beyond 2 yrs?

syd, not yet coz i was thinking how to thaw it n store it inside the freeze... coz really got no space for me le...

hehehe..have no idea..my target is 2 yrs..but looking at my son now who is glued to my boobs...he may not want to stop on his own.

I'm more worried to stop coz he doesn't drink any other milk. though he eats other stuff like cheese or oats for calcium....so...may continue beyond 2 yrs.

Thinking back...the first six months..i was worried..i got not enough milk...and whether i can reach the 6months mark...then..i was worried if i can reach the 1 year mark...now...i worried if i may stop after reaching my target..and worried if he wants to drink other milk..LOL

phythia, ya hor... i already bf for nearly 3 mths... looking forward for 6 mths then dunno wat will happen then...


shhh... dun tell mil that i secretly took n post this... where to put my storage bags...

my current stash

You can put like 4 bags underneath those bottles

syd, that's interesting... ur freezer? special freezer for ur ebm? the thinniest one is how many oz? n the fat ones?

Not my freezer, I have so much space

They're using Lansinoh bags so 1 fat bag is 6oz.

NicKit...more reason for u to direct feed...

phythia, i bf direct whenever i could ps: din u online in msn de?
