Thanks guys *mwah*
Gigi - to answer your questions...
finding the time of day (that suits you) to actually do the expressing? it is hard to find time, especially with DS running around. Somehow bringing the pump out signifies its time to be a complete pain in the butt
- have you found a particular time when you are "fuller"? I find myself noticing a difference about an hour after expressing - just a bit of tightness I suppose? It's subtle, but I can notice it. If its been about 4 hours then it gets a little uncomfortable.
- has the chest pain decreased? Still got chest pain - but its like at the base near my ribs... so not sure what that is....
- do you give M all the BM at once, or syringe by syringe? do you notice any difference in her reactoin e.g bwn drinkign your milk and Formula - do you think she can tell the diff? I don't think she can tell the difference at the moment unfortunately!! I have heaps of syringes, so have been storing up like a day - day and a halfs worth - and then giving it to her in a bottle - so its more like milk - and less like having medicine - if you know what i mean? makes me feel better...
So today's efforts have been:-
Morning express with DS being a pain - 3ml
Mid morning with DS in bed - 7ml
Need to do it again - can feel mrs right side getting a bit uncomfortable especially!!! DS is up though so probably won't be worth the effort!!!![]()
