At least my husband didnt have to drive the baby to my office for a feed! But you're right, we just have to accept that we can plan, but sometimes the baby decides!

I remember the time when I breastfeed Arissa. The same plan as yours to try to exclusively breastfeed her.<br /><br />2 weeks before coming back to work, we try to train her using a bottle. So many types and so many brands (just name it, we have it). She even refuse on the formulated milk(lucky there are other babies can accept it, so we gave them). At one time the milk supply wasn't enuff, my mom and my sis drove all the way to my office just to breastfeed her.<br /><br />She started to have her 1st soft diet when she almost 8mths. We cook and blend it everyday without fail. And until to date, she still have her breastfeed even though she has been eating solid food for quite a while. Oh, she's now 28mths. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7098585537098661010.post-10155029713367717342010-08-18T15:13:08.260+08:002010-08-18T15:13:08.260+08:00Mamapumpkin: Patsy hi!

Didnt know you had trouble with the breastfeeding too :( I guess we all have to work with what we've got. <br /><br />2 weeks on and the milk supply improved gradually then it started slowing again after fasting began. So I took a 3 day break on the doctor's advice, popped Primperan to get the supply back up and voila! Back to fasting now and it's starting to drop again sigh. Might just have to call it quits on the fasting if this goes on :(Sheahnee Iman Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05889185083648140272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7098585537098661010.post-71310668167980351542010-08-16T11:00:47.218+08:002010-08-16T11:00:47.218+08:002 weeks on and how are we doing?
Breastfeeding e...2 weeks on and how are we doing? <br /><br />Breastfeeding exclusively is the hardest job in the world if you don't have enough milk and although majority of women out there have ample supply of milk, there are the few and far between, like ME, who simply didn't have enough. And my baby was completely malnourished, was off the WHO BREASTFEEDING growth charts for her entire 1st year and diagnosed as Failure To Thrive. I cannot tell you how misconceived and over-rated breastfeeding is but I know I want to stop and am trying very hard to wean baby off the breast, as it isn't doing her any good. <br /><br />Just my breastfeeding story......by the way, did you try googling Mamapumpkin? *smiles* Clue: You came to my home for morning sickness.....Mamapumpkinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02136340981231146406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7098585537098661010.post-84952807806858247012010-08-11T10:57:48.333+08:002010-08-11T10:57:48.333+08:00Mum: Thanks Mum.
