:wong29:Congrts to you n ur hubbyHi, everybody...i delivered at 13/04/09 evening time 6.30pm...is natural delivered without epd..
hi cream
me too.. even after a mth, still not enough to feed my girl though the milk did increase now.
Even if your milk is not enough is ok cos i heard what we produce colostrum. It provides nutrients to the baby and helps prevent some infections and allergies. mine change to white colour after a week or so.
try not to give too much FM as they say if a child grows fat from drinking FM, then it would be difficult for them to slim down in future. Now i started to worry cos my girl seems to be drinking a lot of milk for her age. hahah.
BTW, do try to feed your baby more milk and let her pass urine as much as possible to prevent jaundice.
and do not eat too much ginger during your confinement even though they say it helps to get rid of the wind cos if your baby is drinking BM , then the amount of ginger you intake will affect her jaundice level. my baby is still having a bit of jaundice due to me eating too much ginger . sigh..
Wow... so fast you are using flash cards for her already? I realise that my girl don't really look at me when she is idling... no matter how I sing to her or talk to her... she looks at me lovingly only when she latches on... haha...Oh, and how do you "entertain" baby when he/she is awake??? Mine seems to like those red, black and white flashcards but after 15mins of looking at them, she starts wailing again. And I can't carry her because she would immediately search for my nipple...

Is it because baby is still too young to respond to me? When I call her name, she doesn't look at me... and I am concerned.
Hi Nucleus,Hi cream....
for newborns - visual is not properly formed yet. She will not be able to see defined shapes/objects.... just basic colours (black/white/red).
However they can HEAR sound stimulation.... it can be anything... a voice, tinkling object etc.... observe her carefully.... when you speak or sing to her... there should be a noticeable response from her - it can be simple things like opening her eyes...or her eyeballs roll towards the direction of the sound... or she will smile or laugh or a change in face expression...
Hi Cream,So where can I get the flash cards to help stimulate her learning experience?
I'm just like you Cream. I'm a big-time worrier and and tend to be rather negative as well so I know how you feel.My hubby says I am too uptight about baby... he reminded me that she is only 9 days old... I know that my character is one who worries alot about everything... and I always feel negatively and very prone to being depressed... But not depression la. haha... Maybe I must learn to be more relax. But cos it's my first baby, I find it so difficult to relax. Haizzz....
We can hold hands liao.. haha...I'm just like you Cream. I'm a big-time worrier and and tend to be rather negative as well so I know how you feel.
I had better learn to be more relaxed and positive too.
Yeah, we really should be more positive. Motherhood would definitely be a happier experience! Regarding breastfeeding, I keep telling myself that it isn't easy and should things turn out not as well as I hoped it would, feeding formula wouldn't make me a bad mother.We can hold hands liao.. haha...
I think we better encourage each other to be more positive bah... Otherwise, the rest of the April MTBs will be sick of my constant whining... hehe...
