olamitie:No warmer dear. Milk has to be stored at either room temperature or cooled. You can get an insulated cooler bag and ice pack to store the milk for creche. So you pump and put in the fridge and when he is going to school you put the ice pack and the milk in the bag. It can keep the milk good for 24hrs. Jumia has it for about 1500 5 Likes 1 Share |

rofemiguwa: my dear, there are other ways to bond with your dd that just breast feeding oh. i know it can be a bit depressing, but my opinion is to just let that ship sail! just because you are well enough to be discharged does not mean you should start doing James bond. you still have a few weeks to recover fully, so i do not even think you are physically ready for the rigours of breast feeding. all the small food you are eating should be going to replenish what was lost during your illness. DO NOT OVERWORK YOURSELF. if you think you are well, try climbing a flight of stairs or two and you will realize that the strength you think you have is not really there in the first week or two after discharge. You are by no means a bad mother, do not compound your issues by trying to re-establish breast feeding when you do not need to. you haven't done so in about 2 weeks so your supply would have dwindled drastically if not stopped altogether ( i know some antibiotiucs are notorious for halting lactation) , plus she is already eating solids well and have done so for the entire time you were in hospital, you can offer her breast and then she spits out your nippl.e and then you start feeling proper rejection. In all honesty i believe your DD is fine, and you just have to deal with your own Psychological attachment to the breast feeding. Focus on trying to spend as much time as possible with her to re-connect, and believe me, the way her face will light up when she sees you and rushes for you to carry her when you get home will be equally as priceless. 14 Likes |

@rofemiguwa, please just listen to what doctor says. so that the drug giving to you will not affect your baby. I feel the attachment you have for your little one. Maybe you should hold on for some time or find another method to bond with her. God bless you. @olamitie,Yesitsme, you are not the only one but i thank God i have overcome the fear. In fact i went and drove into petrol station by destroying their pumps. I almost killed the petrol attendant but i thank God i didn't. Now i am a professional driver to the glory of God. Dont let fear stop you to achieve what you desire. 2 Likes |

Pls du not Quote or SHARE Since this thread has become my abide even while breastfeeding....I can share something with u all. So I need godly and candid advice here Found out my younger sister whom am 5yrs older than is planning her wedding ( I have no idea and dunno d guy) with my mum . I am the first, so I do most of the advicing and encouragement, got tired after I found out they had plans of the kind of life they wanna live. I backed out as it was leading to insult. My papa no get money and he doesn't care abt anyone, in my lil way I try to bring everyone together. She initially wanted to get married last two years and everyone kicked against it except my mama cos she was young and had nothing tangible doing ( no school,no handiwork) so that tomorrow them no go say she be liability. We wanted her to wait more, get mature probably enter school. My hubby never liked involving himself in our matter, but the marriage thing didn't go well with him, so he spoke to my mum and d lady and she said she had made up her mind and d answer my mum gave him wasn't nice, so he backed out. Now two yrs later, I hear say she still wan marry but someone else who is abt 15yrs older than her so I heard. She finally called a day to the day they were coming to collect list to inform me abt it. I just congratulated her and wished her well, although I had already heard it frm MIL ( my mum told her and she in turn told me) so I wasn't surprised.my MIL knew I was angry and calmed m down and adviced I speak with my mum abt it when she comes for omugwo, if she brings up the matter( the list collection made her come a week after delivered) which made m more angry. True to my suspicion she never brought up the matter till after a month I personally brought it up and she said it wasn't yet time for me to know abt the marriage. Fortunately, the list collection didn't hold cos no one knew abt the guy and his people including my mum although they speak on phone. I blatantly told her she was wrong to have accepted to collect list for the guy when u know nothing abt him. Now, I hear the girl is making full plans to marry. And the way everything is, I do not want to get involved in the marriage thing as she herself doesn't want m involved. What would u do if u were in my shoes? |

Yesitsme Both your sister and mother are adults are they not? If she wants to get married, that is frankly her decision . if your mum decides to support her it is her decision as well. there is only so much you can do. i understand your concern that she appears to be going to a marriage to someone that no one knows totally unprepared. you may not support her decision but you also cannot stop her from doing what she wants to do. some people like to carry man on top their head like jackie-work and will fight with anyone who speaks against the relationship in any way even if it is totally justified. from what you have said your sister seems to be one of such people. unfortunately those type of people will only learn when they get badly burnt! i do not know where you are from oh but generally it is the father's side that gives out the list, and recieves the gifts and gives out the bride traditionally. I take it your dad is not really involved however are they even considering speaking to his side of the family? or who will be representing the father of the bride on the day? if your mum will not listen to your concerns, perhaps call another respected and trusted elderly family member or two to mediate on the matter and also so that you have witnesses to the issues that have been going on. Then wash your hands off the matter and wish your sister well on her on-coming nuptials and marriage. tell them to send you invitation when the wedding plans has been concluded, since they have decided not to include you. sometimes things like this happen for your own benefit, if you have a baby and your own issues to deal with, adding another persons drama on top may not ideal for your own physical and metal well-being. Finally put it to prayer that whatever decisions they make will be the right one for your sister. On the day of the wedding, wear your party best and dance like there is no tomorrow. You can only force a horse to the water, you cannot force it to drink. 13 Likes |
