Postnatal 04: Breastmilk Storage Bottles.
In: Motherhood|Postnatal
13 Apr 2010I have been feeding the sink since I started breastfeeding Natey exclusively 3.5 weeks ago. I don’t keep any of my EBM now, whether after feeds or in between feeds. I don’t want to put Natey back on the bottle because that made him greedy and impatient. He bites — with his super hard gums [...]

Postnatal 03: Hot Mama.
8 Apr 2010Oh how I wished! If only I was referring to physically looking hot, Hot. And not physically sweaty yucky hot, Hot (-__-||) I’ve been complaining and whining that “I am Hot” way back in December. Back then, it made sense because I was growing my little man and he emitted heat through me. Then there [...]

I have never doubted that I would breastfeed Nathaniel exclusively. It is the most natural and loving thing to do for our baby. So I did not understand why some Mothers choose not to. But now I do… My breastfeeding journey did not begin easy. I suffered from piles during my pregnancy, and during delivery [...]

Postnatal Massage Therapy, pt 2 – My Review.
30 Mar 2010Added 12/2/2012, 6.30pm Hi Mommies-to-be I will not be sharing Yati’s contact anymore because I just found out that the Eucalyptus oil she uses is not suitable for postnatal care because of its cooling properties. She is possibly doing more harm than cure. My sincere apologies to everyone I began the course for my postnatal massage therapy on [...]
Postnatal 01: Confinement, pt 1.
In: Motherhood|Postnatal
24 Mar 2010I have faithfully observed all — 90% at least — the confinement practices for a month. I have no idea what the other 10% are since even my Mother is at lost. We had to constantly call my Grand Aunty for directions *LOL* What is Postnatal Confinement? Traditional confinement practices stem from the belief that [...]

Postnatal 00: My Birth Story.
19 Mar 2010It was it! My story began at approximately 4.07am on 23 February 2010. Being a 1st time Mommy, I was unsure and so I endured — almost turning this story and LBJ into a home delivery *gasps* I recorded all the contraction time in my mobile as an unsent SMS. It was too early in [...]
