The Big 50

I've never imagined that the weighing scale which I am standing on is reading the big 50 to be. It has always been 50 plus or even closer to 60 ever since I got married and become a mother. I was weighing so heavy that I had to wear free size or L size clothes after I gave birth to Shannen and breast feeding her.

As for this time round(after giving birth to Sarah), I really lost so much weight until I can even put on the Lacoste short which I bought years and years ago(when I was 17 then, working in Lacoste) Lolz... It's really not easy handling 2 kids at 1 time.

Reviews

Went back to Parentcraft for review today and am so happy that the blocked duct has been clear. Though the areola area is still swollen with bruise but it's still much better than before. Got to keep on massaging the breasts before pumping them and also take good care of the nipple areas too. Catch the opportunity to take a picture when Mrs Wong was carrying Sarah.

It Was Hell

It had been horrible weeks for me since I came back home. Sarah is not napping well. She will wake up after 30-45minutes from her nap and didn't want to go back to sleep again. I will have to sit there, patting her for hours and drag her nap until it's the next feed. It has been a very tiring job. So tired that I wanted to give up. Adding to my misery, I am having blocked duct now. It was at the areola area and very near to the nipple. Part of the nipple was swollen. Whenever Sarah feed on it, I can feel the burning sensation. It was worse than giving birth.

Shannen was also sick and had to stay at home. Imagined that I had to take care both of them...... Loss of words.

Things are getting better now as Sarah can nap longer cos of the help of pacifier. I can organise my time better now. Look forward for better things come ahead. Keeping my fingers crossed!

Blocked Ducts & Inflammation

It's confirmed by the lactation consultant and doctor that I am having blocked ducts(which is at the areola area) and causes inflammation. Went to Parentcraft (@TMC) this morning and was so happy that I was able to meet up with Mrs Wong in person. She is so friendly and kind to approach to. She helped me massage the blocked area and asked the another lactation consultant to help me afterwards cos she was busy for another shooting. Met up with a few mothers who encounter problems with breast feeding too. Wondering how come something natural can be so tough.

After the 2nd round of massage, the lactation consultant had confirmed that I had a inflammation and need to take some antibiotic to clear them before I can proceed for further massage. Meanwhile, I will still latch on Sarah at the affected area, hoping that she can clear the blockage for me and need to go back on Friday for review.
