what's mean by full breastfeeding mother???
my baby is taking the breast milk and the powder alternately, am i full breastfeeding mother.
actually, i eat anything, except spicy, liver, black bean, pigeon, of course sometime junk food such as ice-cream, chips...
i didn't take any vitamin, is that enough good to baby??
Candace,
I never take those growth charts of Kin Hong Yuen too seriously. They are based on a growth survey of BBs who are mostly formula fed. Pl do not let it become a yardstick of success or failure for you. Your baby's growth pattern is unique. You can refer to the link I gave in the topic "Average Weight Gain for Bf babies" for some more information on growth patterns of exclusively breastfed babies. You can also find some useful articles there.
Also, u said u feed for one hr. Is the baby actively sucking and swallowing each time? Or just nibbling the breast for one hr? Did the nurses say that the latch (sucking position) is correct?
I know that you have to take care of an elder child too. Pl. do not let any guilty feeling consume your energy. Bigger does not necessarily mean healthier. Just enjoy the time with your lovely kids.
I think real growth failure is not that common. And there will be many other things to worry about other than breastfedding in such cases. But breast milk is the best food you can offer, to set baby on the start of a healthy life!
I enjoy reading this topic very much because we are all breastfeeding our babies and giving them the best source of nutrition. At the same time, we, mothers share our experience and support each other. Thanks yanyan0629 for setting up this topic...all mothers - add oil!!!! :-P
In the first month, I pushed myself to eat more because I think it will be good in breastfeeding
so, everyday i ate so much such as 1 litre milk and water, 3 bowls of fish soup, 2 bowls of rice both lunch and dinner, not many junk food, .......all eating at home and don't go out for eating due to the SARS and it's no good to eat in the restaurant.
Therefore, up to now, my stomach is being bigger and bigger, i can't stop my eating now even it's serious than before when i pregnant. of course, my weight is being up and up, seems like a "see lai"
everybody said that breastfeeding will be easier to keep fit, but...... for me, it won't be happen!!!
right now, I "cut" my eating and my milk is still ok la(bumping 15-20 oz each day)
actually, i don't know it's that enough vitamins in my breast milk, right now, i started to eat some junk food, eat lesser, and sometime go out for dinner..
﹐厲害!厲害! 我同囡囡洗臉佢一定醒。你有冇試過日頭弄醒bb同佢玩? 又或者帶佢出下街﹐等佢周圍睇野。若果你要調正番日夜﹐可能要每次"吞"一､兩個鐘﹐續d續d改正等佢適應。以上都只係我既愚見。
