Was sick last 2 days. I had a serious tonsils infection and doc had to give me anti-biotic. I told her i am still breastfeeding but she thinks it is ok since my baby is already one year old. But being the Kai-si mum, i decided to wean her off the nite feeds since i was already planning to do so soon.
Boy, i think i am too gang-hu liao. First of all, my gal refused bottles milk. Last 2 nites had been a struggle and i will have to carry her and pat her back to sleep. I wasted my milk powder as she refused to drink a single drop. Didnt want to make them but hubby was concerned tt she's hungry. She cried so hard and sad tt i am tempted to let her suckle. It took a lot of strength and hard-heartedness not to give in.
Another thing i didnt count on was the engorgement. I think i am too impatient. My breasts hurt so badly tt i couldnt even carry her or walk properly. I consulted a few frens and realized tt i made the decision too hasty. I shld slowly reduce the feeds to one .. then non. B4 tt, i was still feeding her at least 3 times at nite!!! Anyway, i cant stand it though my mum was against it, i decided to nurse her again last nite once just to relieve my engorgement.
Sigh... i think i still need to do it once for a few days b4 i completely cut it off. Else u will see me hatch-back for the next few days!!! :P
