Good morning fellow mommies! I think you got drawn to this post because of the title, most of you are probably moms or are expecting to be one! Congratulations by the way to us! It is definitely not an easy job but a very rewarding one!
Most of the time when you meet fellow moms, they would ask if your baby is formula-fed or breastfed, not that I'm against formula feeding, some really had to go through that route and I completely understand. As for me, it was a personal decision to breastfeed Kyle as we're hoping he gets all the anti-bodies he needs from breastmilk so he'll grow up to be a strong and healthy boy!
I am not blessed with unlimited supply of breastmilk I tell you, at this moment, I do have enough just for Kyle but not that much to stock them inside the freezer or even enough to feed the rest of the barangay! *laughs* I do not plan to okay? :P
I have to blame my very busy schedule as there were days I can't express milk for 5-6 hours because I'm busy with a makeup workshop or probably in a place where I can't express my milk!
But once I get the chance to be back on my regular schedule, I would try to pump at least 2-3 hours to get back to the "rhythm" and of course, there are a lot of help with my daily Tinola soup, malunggap capsules and now...lactation cookies!
This mommy is doing everything to increase my milk supply! Even chowing down at least 4 yummy cookies a day --- yes, that is VERY difficult to do :P
