Breastfeeding Part 16

[mamichula]

 I want to regularly pump and bottle feed na. So I can work kahit part time and finally see my dentist. I was told kasi before magpa pasta walang bfeeding for 8 hours so I need to pump.

Buuut bakit parang ayaw ng son ko sa bottle? I tried this morning niluluwa nya the nipple ng bottle sniff although nag cup feed na sya when he was a few days old. Kaso ayaw nya na din ng cup feeding gusto na tlg nya sa akin ,g direct feed.

How did you guys introduce the bottle?

[Grayce]

^how old is your baby? bottle feeding is normally introduced around 4-6weeks old. pag maaga kasi it can trigger nipple confusion. If late naman mas mataas ang chance na iresist ang bottle.

try to check different types of bottle nipples sis, [textspeak!] anak ko pigeon ang tinanggap siguro the same sa nipple hehe). Nahirapan din ako sa umpisa pag sobrang gutom na sya i offer bottle, tapus ganun parati ang naging routine pag gabi nalang sya direct sakin upto 7am before ako umalis papuntang office.  Ayun nasanay naman sya eventually.

[wengerts]

bawal pala magpa pasta pag bf'ing?

hi sis mamichula, when we introduced bottle sa baby ko, medela calma gamit namin. since isa lang calma namin, we tried pigeon din. ngayon ayaw na nya ng calma, pigeon peristaltic na ang laging gamit nya. try mo yun Y-cut.

[iristacey]

^ganyan din baby ko. initially he liked the calma. then much  better with pigeon. of all nipples, eto na yung pinakanagustuhan ni baby ko. pigeon peristaltic din gamit namin, but slow flow lang.

[mamichula]

Thanks for the suggestions ill get pigeon and calma pag labas namin he's 10 weeks old na baka kaya ang hirap na mag introduce n nipple

[berryblitz]

napansin ko, pag nagfefeed ako kay baby, tumutulo yung milk sa kabilang breast.  and vice versa.  ako lang ba ang ganito?

then need ren pala itap yung back ni baby kahit na breast milk.  i though pag formula milk lang dahil sa bottle-fed. 

[berryblitz]

and ask ko nga pala.  anong vitamin puedeng itake for breastfeeding moms.  meron po sa inyo dito na nagtatake ng vitamins while breastfeeding?

[chooga chooga]

calma and pigeon nipples are very different. Calma is standard while pigeon is wide neck. i tried calama for my baby as well then tried pigeon peristaltic plus afterwards. my baby got confused. kasi pag inaalternate ko calma and pigeon super confused siya to the point na ayaw niya magmilk from bottle talaga. pahirapan. so we stuck with pigeon peristaltic plus. and we never used calma since then. try to buy just one and train your baby with that.

[shobe17]

^^ hi sis, ganun ata talaga, sabay ang letdown ng milk on both breasts. ang gawa ko ready na ang towel sa kabilang boob pag magmilk kame ni baby.

[honey_iya]

^normal yang tumutulo ang kabila while dede si baby. ako sis take ko stresstab & caltrate plus B-complex.

[daveigh]

Mga sis, i heard from others na inaabot yung iba nang 1-3 days bago tumulo ang gatas. Just in case it happens, paano baby ko sa mga unang araw na wala akong gatas?

[berryblitz]

hmmm tumutulo yung sa kabilang breast while dede si baby sa kabila, it doesn't mean na kung ganu karami ang tumulo, ganun lang nasisipsip ni baby sa kabila, right?  i know this is a stupid question.  i just need an assurance. 

sige, take note ko yang vitamins na take mo.  thanks 

@daveigh  ako may formula milk.  pero yung iba, di ko alam pano nila ginawa yung no formula milk at all.

[Grayce]

^kaya may tumutulo sa kabila due to let down. you can pump the other breast while feeding to boost milk supply.

take calcium supplement rin btw.

and a newborn has enough reserves for upto 5 days hence the reason why there's no need to supplement with formula

^^if you were able to browse around the previous threads and basa basa rin online, ang newborn can survive for up to 5 days ng  walang mature milk. mature milk is yung squirting milk na. what's important is you let baby latch lang right after giving birth and feed on demand para makuha nya colostrum since this is what will protect your baby and boost his/her immune system.

[misteryosa]

^ ako sinasalo ko yung milk sa kabila pag nag let down, nanghihinayang kasi ako.

In a day, nakakaipon ako ng 4-6oz sa pag salo, yung yung pinapainom ko pag maliligo na ako.

hassle lang kasi ilang via nagagamit ko kasi hindi pwede yung galing sa ref na via cup ang gamitin, pwede lang sila ipagsama sama pag same temperature na.

[jdin25]

Yes sis sahod mo then store for use ni baby na wala ka, take calciumade vit. Un ang riseta ng ob ko.

I gave birth last night, 11/30/2012 at St. Lukes, I've been trying to breastfeed my baby since last night. pasensya na kasi more of rant post ko, nanganak nga pala ako via C-section. si hubby may bagong kinuhang midwife na sabi niya for 6months lang. kinaiinis ko lang, I have milk kita ko kaso di ganun ka-perky nipples ko, hindi inverted nipples ko medyo parang flat lang siya. my baby sucks naman kaya alam kong nakakainom siya, kinaiinis ko lang tong midwife lagi na lang sinisisi sa nipples ko na kesyo di raw kasi nakakakabit sa nipples ko etc.. feeling ko magkakaron pa kong post partum depression cause of her.. sobrang nakaka pressure! kulang na lang ipamukha saking wala ako kwenta ina, kakainis! di ba niya na-realize na galing akong opera kagabi lang? tapos kung makasabi lang sa relatives o side ni hubby tungkol sa nipples ko ang asta close kami? parang hindi kami papa-sweldo sa kanya. naiiyak na talaga ako.

[Grayce]

^ay ang sarap nama batukan nyan!  kausapin mo si hubby about it baka pwede nya pagsabihan

[daveigh]

^^ pasabihan mo yan sa mister mo. wala sya sa posisyon to nag you.
