^^ Thanks sis.. Anong gagamitin mong storage? I wonder kung spill proof yung via cups ng avent. Hmm.. or yung mga plastic containers nalang kaya para madaling itransfer sa TT bottle.. Kaso mas mahal noh? Mas ok kung washable yung containers.

^nabasa ko kasi yung Avent Via, recommended hanggang 4x usage lang. google mo sis. pero madami naman gumagawa ng higit 4x ang gamit.

eh mahal rin siya noh! ayoko naman mag storage bags kasi plastic, tapon ng tapon. kaya Evenflow storage bottles binili ko. not bad ang price. 350pesos, apat na bote, tig 5oz.

^ Ay, really? Mahal din! Ano ba yan.. Sige, will look at evenflow na din. I bought additional lids for my tommee tippee kit but I got 2 lids lang. Inisip ko din kasi na yun nalang ang gamitin kong storage since i'll try direct feeding and I think (wishful thinking to. :) ), I won't need too much stash. But yep, mura yung evenflow. Baka bumili rin ako. Hehe

i'm using avent electic breast pump and avent bottles with sealing disc. ganto sya.

http://www.usa.philips.com/c/avent-baby-breastfeeding/accessories-4ozx4-scf680_04/prd/en/

so pagka pump ko derecho na sya sa bottle. kinabukasan papalitan ko na lang ng nipple. wala ng hassle ng pasalin salin from bag or other milk containers.

i also have evenflo storage bottles (8pcs) and avent via cups. i got a converter (for wide neck and via cups) para derecho na din sa bottle. i used my via cups until 6 months and now seldom na lang. we normally use it for baby food storage. i never freezed any of my storage bottles kasi any excess of my baby is being frozen (which is later on donated). i also have bebeta storage which is the most affordable and yet i can say almost the same quality as that of evenflo. okay na din sya. we store kasi in feeding quantities kaya ang daming bottles.

^saan available ang bebeta at magkano siya sis?

gusto ko nga rin mag store in feeding quantities para di na magsalin salin. ipon ipon muna ako ng storage bottles.

at 25days, medyo sobra na yung nappump ko for my baby. pag sobra sobra na talaga, gusto ko rin mag donate. nakakapanghinayang kasi pag nakikita ko di nauubos ni baby tapos tapon nalang.

kaso kung dr. browns pala ang bottle ni baby, magsasalin salin parin ako! dapat dr browns bottles mismo ang gawin kong storage! magastos naman.. lalo na tig 2.5oz pa lang consume ng baby ko.

kung mag invest naman ako sa malalaking dr. browns bottles, ang sikip sa ref!

madalas sakto yung nappump ko. hindi kase malakas mag milk baby ko 4-5oz lang sya per feeding. if need ko magsalin salin, paguwi ko sa bahay before ko lagay sa freezer dun ako magsasalin salin.

buti na lang marami akong bottles puro regalo.

dati ang sikip na rin ng freezer ko. pero ngayon 2-3 bottles na lang nasa loob. sakto na kase yung napump ko para maconsume nya kinabukasan. my baby is 11 months now.

Two weeks bago ako bumalik sa work mag iipon na rin ako ng breastmilk.. Pwede kayang yung na pump ko for example:

7am up to 12midnight

7am milk 1st pump 1st container, next 10am milk second pump, 2nd container, 1pm, ill mix the 10am milk na nasa 2nd container sa 1st container, 3rd pump store sa ref, 4th pump, mix again yung 3rd sa 1st and so on... So bale yung 7am to 12midnight isang container or dalawa.. Then freeze na.. Tapos pag ipapainom na kay baby, night baba ko na siya para mathaw, then isasalin salin na lang yung thawed milk kinaumagahan every time magmimilk si baby sa feeding bottle for the whole day consumption na niya (9 to 10 hours while im at work).. Para tipid sa container, since yung thawed milk naman can last up to 24 hours naman..

^sis, pag bumalik ka ba sa work, hindi ka na magppump? kung mgppump ka, hindi ba yun rin icconsume ni baby kinabukasan?

balik office na kasi ako by feb pero medyo nahihilo nga ako sa systema ng storage. di ko alam kung need ko ba talaga mag freeze kasi naisip ko, magppump parin naman ako kahit pumapasok ako, so yung na pump ko today, cconsume bukas. hindi naman kasi ako pwede tumigil magpump dahil hihina ang supply diba?

hindi na ko nagsasalin salin pag thawed na yung milk. nagsasalin ako bago ko ifreeze. and ang alam ko pwede mag mix ng milk within 24 hours lang from the time na na collect sya.

si m_lim masasanay ka rin nyan pag start ka na sa work kase depende yan sa style na comfortable ka. like ako nasanay ako na freeze kagad pagdating sa bahay maski kinabukasan icconsume na. yung iba ref muna then pag hindi na consume within 1 week, saka nila lalagay sa freezer.

2 weeks before ako bumalik sa work, nag ipon na ko ng milk. habang dede sa isang breast si baby, pump naman ako sa kabila. buti na lang di sya nabibitin sa isang breast lang. and madalas ako mag pump sa umaga pag gising ko habang tulog si baby and sa gabi after ko naman mapatulog si baby. medyo marami kase milk ko nung time na yun. 2 hours lang na hindi makadede si baby sisirit na ng bongga milk ko.

first 6 months ni baby hindi ako masyado nag ssupplement. pag naalala ko lang :D kase malakas pa nun supply ko. mas mahaba kase yung time na nasa bahay ako kesa sa work. flexi time kase ako nun. ngayon 14 hours ako wala sa bahay and 3x lang ako nakakapag pump sa office.

ganyan din ako sis before hanggang likod masakit! ngayon titigas lang sya ko pag 7-hours akong hindi nakapag pump :(

OT na :D

Konti lang kasi na papump ko sis kasi mayat maya nagfifeed sa akin si baby.. Minsan 4oz pa naiinom niya ng isang meal, so yung 4 oz na yun 2 to 3 sessions ko ng pinaghirapan yun.. Kaya need ko makapagtabi at least 20 oz na back up..

^For that 2 week trip, you need to accept na lahat ng maipa-pump mo for the 1st week, itatapon mo lang.  As they say Pump and DUMP!  You can't transport frozen milk kasi and just imagine how bigat the milk you will bring home!  Eh ako nga 5 days lang ata yung trip ko - 9 kilos lang milk ang inuwi ko!  Grabe diba?  It will break you heart na you have to throw out the milk pero kelangan eh.  You can lessen your pumping sched - but be prepared to have low milk supply.

Pag ganyan na may planned trip ka, you need to store sa ref.  I-plan out mo yan ng maige, so that the baby will be willing to take chilled or frozen milk.  Ako dati, nasestress ako kasi my eldest didnt want to drink frozen milk!  So imagine kung paano ako magpump!  I was pumping on the dot without missing a session para lang ay enough supply ako of the chilled milk!!

If mag-uuwi ka ng milk, be prepared, kelangan may cooler ka and storage bags and etc.  Read my Travelling entry para alam mo what to bring!  hahaha...

Good luck!!!!
