@ sis sistah: domperidone is available over tha counter. its motillium. 

[iristacey]

@ sis sistah!, natry mo na ba fenugreek or blessed thistle? or nursing mom tea?

[design21]

is there any breastfeeding seminar coming up?

[iristacey]

^i think regular yung sa LATCH sa The Medical City. You may call TMC for upcoming events. for those who want to mingle with breastfeeding moms, merong La Leche League Manila meeting sa Mothercare BGC on Sept 22, 10-12nn. i was able to attend one meeting before and is also interested to go again next week (provided pumayag si hubby na ipagdrive kame hehe).

[kaice]

^ aww meron? same date ng events sa kabila hehe! sayang naman

[marose17]

The breastfeeding seminar at TMC was held last September 8.  Most likely, mayroon ulit next month. 

[iristacey]

^^oo sis kaice. kaya nga nagtentative ako. i want to meet jenny (chronicles of a nursing mom) in person kasi. i'm a huge follower of her blog and saw a post na pupunta siya. but have to inform hubby first.

[betsyness]

Wala kaya sa may south? Asian? Would love to attend sana kaya lang may prior commitments na. sayang

[Grayce]

^aybr you can try to check with asian hospital mismo by calling up their hotline.

I tried to go on no rice diet for several days in my attempt to lose weight fast, pero napansin ko bumaba yung output ko kaya back to rice ako. diet plays a huge role talaga. tsaka na nga ako magdadiet. mas gusto kong masustain magbreastfeed lalo na that i'll be back to work na next month. I'm starting to build my supply for freezing.

Buti even if i dont eat rice ok output ko. I've been an "anti-rice" person for 11yrs na.

@sis iristacey: sis san nakakabili nung nursing mom tea?

[Diane]

noticed too na bihira magka-breastfeeding seminar sa south lalo na sa Asian. used to went there lalo na before ako manganak pero walang posted ads re that. Sana magkaroon

[iristacey]

@princess_angel, meron sa healthy options, yogi ang brand. meron din kay babymama.ph.

^ sis, effective ba yung tea? kasi ako napansin ko na pag hindi ako nag-domperidone, super konti lang ang nakukuha ko, malakas na yung 2oz. pero pag nk-domperidone ako, 4 oz yung nakukuha ko. kung effective yung tea, baka magtea na lang ako kasi natural yun compared sa domperidone.

[iristacey]

effective naman cia sa akin but i rarely use it. kapag lang kailangan.

[princess_angel]

^ako kasi i really need magsuplement kasi 2pm to 12mn pasok ko. then dating ako sa bahay namin ng 2-230 am. then gsing ng 9 para asikasuhin si baby tas pasok n ulit. so halos la na ako pahinga tas stressed pa sa work.

Mga sis, question lang re: pumping. How many minutes ba dapat to spend on pumping? Pag nag pump ba dapat tuloy tuloy lang kahit wala ng lumamabas? Kunwari 10mins ang si-net ko na time kaso 5mins lang wala ng lumalabas do i continue lang pumping kahit wala ng lumalabas or pag wala ng lumabas sign to stop na? TIA!

[Grayce]

^before I usually spend atleast 15mins on each breast. depends if feeling ko may "laman" pa then go lang even if wala nang let down kasi for sure there will be another let down again.

Oh... Ok. Tnx sis. Kasi parang ang sakit na sa nipples pag matagal na nag pump. Nagtataka nga ako bakit pag direct feed kahit 30mins na nag suck si baby ok lang d naman masakit. Sis, 15mins ba ang minimum time na kailangan para dumami supply?

[martiella]

mga sis how pag nagpum ako ng milk ko how many hours sya pwede ipainom kay baby if nilagay ko sa ref? and pano mawawala yung lamig nung milk before inumin ni baby pinapainit ba yun sa hot water? please enligthen me first time mom po.

[zoe_girl18]

Mga sis, question lang. Pag nag feed kayo ng expressed milk, how many oz per feeding? Yung pi-nump nyo pano nyo sya segregate? How many oz per bottle? Para d masayang per feeding? TIA.
