^yan din lagi ko sinasabi sis, son ko was less than 6lbs nung pinanganak kaya nung una gusto ko ring iformula para bumigat agad, but since pinangako ko sa sarili ko na hangat kaya ko breastfeeding si baby kaya pinanindigan ko, although nung una isa hangang dalawang beses ko siyang binibigyan ng formula sa isang araw but not because of that reason na kung hindi dahil di ko na makaya pain ng nipples ko. Now magdadalawang buwan na siya double na weight niya. At mabilog siya.. So i guess if ill continue bf pag malikot na siya i'll expect na rin na di siya talaga magiging tabain and okay lang yun basta healthy siya at wag maging sakitin okay na ako :)

mga sis, any of you have tried taking domperidone to increase supply? gusto ko kasi lumakas supply ko, usually i direct feed and pump before i sleep. what i get is around 3 oz both breasts na yun. gusto ko sana makaipon ng milk para pagaalis ako may maiinom si  baby.

bibits: ang na try ko lang fenugreek capsules, effective sya for me then later on wala na effect, so i stop na rin. hinde ko pino force sarili ko makapag pump ng certain amount, mas lalo ako na stress and will cause na kumonti milk ko. so far na experience ko na laging sapat yung milk na naiiwan kay baby... ang nangyari pa nga sakin, whatever ma pump ko today will be my daughter's supply for tomorrow as in wala na kong stock, awa ng Dyos ok naman.

Marssie and Geri Spice: since overseas kami ang payat ng daughter ko at ang liit compared sa mga bata dito, pero alam mo yung siksik ang laman at mabilis kumilos ganun sya. nilagnat lang yung anak ko once  nung tinutubuan ng ngipen, sinisipon sya, inuubo once in a while pero di nagkakalagnat ng tuluyan. yung mga kasabay nyang baby na hinde breastfeed lagi may sakit. eh yung anak ko mahilig pa magpakitang gilas, sasayaw, mag beautiful eyes, alam nya may nanonood sa kanya. kapag nakita nila ang listo ng anak ko isisingit ko na "breastfeed" yan nagugulat sila. ibinibida ko talaga, to think na working mom ako, at medyo maporma pa.. tapos ang lakas ko pa kumain pero di ako gaanong tumataba. yung tyan lang talaga ang malaki sakin, na naiipit ko pa naman  ;D minsan nga feeling ko ang iniisip nila sakin parang "promdi" tapos nakakakwentuhan ko na lang about BF ay yung mga matatanda na...basta mga sis tuloy tuloy nyo lang yan, dahil u and your baby will benefit talaga.

I can attest to the superfood that is breastmilk.  My kids are also on the lean side and despite being born premature, have never been confined in a hospital.  They're 5 years old na.

Now, three of my co-workers have given birth last year.  Of the three, two babies have been confined in the hospital for flu-like symptoms.  The two are mixed-fed and formula-fed.  Only the exclusively breastfed baby has never been confined.  Puwedeng nagkataon lang, pero naniniwala talaga akong mas matibay at hindi sakitin ang mga batang exclusively breastfed.

Thanks, check ko sa GNC pag nagpunta kami city center. :)

Yung 2 weeks before na yun sis, every pump mo freezer na agad? or iniipon mo muna yung napump ng 24hours at pinagsasama-sama bago ifreeze?

nabasa ko never thaw frozen breast milk at room temperature, so ibig sabihin from freezer to refrigerator lang talaga.. for 24hours yun.. how about yung refrigerated milk, gaano siya katagal pwede magstay sa room temperature?

@m_lim: 9 months.  3 months short of my target.  :(. But I was able to breastfeed exclusively during the critical first 6 months.  Hirap sa twins but not impossible.

nabasa ko never thaw frozen breast milk at room temperature, so ibig sabihin from freezer to refrigerator lang talaga.. for 24hours yun.. how about yung refrigerated milk, gaano siya katagal pwede magstay sa room temperature?

kung marami na like 3-4oz sa isang pump session, freezer na agad. small medela bottles ang gamit ko to store breastmilk at saka avent. kung konti lang ang na pump ko like 2 oz, ill just keep it sa fridge, the rule is dapat same temperature ang mga milk bago pagsamahin, so lahat sa fridge muna then at the end of the day pagsasamahin ko sila tapos tuloy na sa freezer. basta gusto ko 4oz lang sa isang bottle. yan yung kayang ubusin ni baby ko in one feeding nya.
yung i co-consume naman ni baby the next day, yung milk na nasa freezer iaakyat ko sya sa fridge (kasi yung ref namin nasa baba yung freezer, drawer type) para ma thaw overnight, then i warm na lang sya pag gusto na mag feed ni baby the next morning.
after mag feed si baby at may natira pa, never put it back sa fridge.
i can leave it up to 3 hrs inside our room na may ac on..wag lang mainitan ng araw or ma exposed in a room with warm termperature.
Hope that helps marssie

hi. first time ko nag-bigay ng thawed frozen breastmilk sa baby ko kanina.  Jan 17 ko na-express BM then freeze ko sya agad.  My baby refused to drink the thawed milk.  When I smelled it, it smells fishy.  Tinikman ko rin, hindi naman maasim, but may bitter taste sya.  Unlik yung freshly expressed na sweet ang lasa.  Panis kaya yun?

Btw, I thawed the frozed BM sa ref overnight and then this morning binabad ko sa warm water bottle.

May naka-experience na ba ng ganito with their frozen BM?  Nanghinayang ako kasi tinapon ko 4oz na BM.
