...ok...as promised...some info on breastfeeding...
...we have to be committed to promoting breastfeeding because of the benefits for both mother and child....
Breastmilk is the best food for your baby as it contains all the nutrition that your baby needs in his first 6 months.
Furthermore, through your milk, your child will acquire the immunity which you have developed against certain illnesses.
More significantly, breastfeeding enhances the bond between you and your baby. Mothers who breastfeed often feel a strong sense of closeness towards their babies and vice versa.
Benefits For The Baby
Complete nutrition
It contains all the nutrients babies need for the first 4 to 6 months of age.
Counters risk of infection
Colostrum, the early milk produced after birth, is rich in antibodies. These antibodies help the baby fight against infections e.g. diarrhoea and respiratory infections. Breastfed babies are also less prone to allergies, colic and constipation.
Comfort and security as your baby feeds from your breast.
Benefits For The Mother
Convenience
There is no need for bottles, sterilisation or temperature check.
Cleanliness
Breastmilk is free of germs and washing your nipples with water once daily is sufficient.
Cost saving
Breastmilk does not cost money and saves you paying for formula feeds.
Contraction of the womb
When baby suckles, this reduces the chance of severe bleeding and speeds up the return of the womb to pre-pregnancy size.
Confidence
It builds the mother's confidence as she fulfills the child's emotional and physical needs.
Child spacing
Breastfeeding delays the return of menstruation and can help you plan your family if you are fully breastfeeding for the first 6 months.
Cancers
Risk of breast cancer is reduced in women who breastfeed.
Calories
During breastfeeding, calories are used up and the fat stored around the hips and thighs during pregnancy may be lost if a sensible diet is followed.
Preparation For Breastfeeding
You should be prepared physically, mentally and emotionally

Expressing Breastmilk
In instances when you are not able to breastfeed your baby directly, you can still provide your baby with breastmilk if you express your milk and store it for use. Expressing helps to initiate and establish lactation when direct feeding is not possible. It also helps to relieve blocked ducts which prevent milk flow.
If your breast is engorged, you may feel some tension around your nipple. Expressing some milk will help to relieve the discomfort and enable your baby to grasp the areola properly.
Ideally, the number of expressions a day should be the same as that of normal breastfeeding. That is, approximately 8 - 10 times a day.
Preparation for Expressing Breastmilk
1. Ensure that the equipment is sterilised before use.
2. Think about your baby to help stimulate milk flow.
3. Adopt a comfortable and relaxed position.
4. Apply a warm towel over your breast to increase circulation.
5. Massage your breast using a circular motion.
6. Stroke your breast in a downward manner, from the top of the breast towards the nipple.
7. Shake your breasts.
Ways Of Expressing Breastmilk
You can choose to express your milk by hand or by using a pump, which you can purchase or rent. You are encouraged to adopt the method that best suits you.
Expressing by hand
Place your forefinger and thumb at the edge of the areola and press back firmly against your breast. Bring your fingers together and compress the areola using the finger pads.
You are encouraged to compress your breast following a rhythm when expressing milk.
Expressing by hand pumps
You are advised to use the piston-type pump, which gives you control over the suction.
Ensure that the flange of the pump is placed over the areola to form a complete seal, as your baby's mouth would when you breastfeed.
Pump continuously for 5 minutes, alternating each breast and massaging your breasts in between.
Each session should not last more than 30 minutes in order not to tire yourself.
Expressing by battery-operated or electric pump
If you choose to use the battery-operated or electric pump, remember to begin with the minimum power before increasing the intensity to the point which you are comfortable with.
Storing Expresed Breastmilk
Expressed milk can be stored in a separate-door freezer for 3 - 6 months. You can keep it for up to 48 hours in a refrigerator at a temperature of 4 degrees Celsius. Breastmilk can also be left at room temperature (25篊) for up to 4 hours.
When storing expressed milk, always remember to use a sterilised bottle. You should also label all the containers with the date and time of collection. Store the milk in feed size amounts.
Thawing expressed breastmilk
For quick thawing of frozen breastmilk, allow it to stand in warm water for 10 minutes.
Alternatively, you may choose to thaw the milk in the refrigerator. Milk thawed this way can be stored up to 24 hours if placed in the refrigerator.
You should warm the milk by standing it in a bowl of warm water before feeding your baby.
Shake the container before feeding.
Do not boil the milk or warm it in the microwave oven.
Excess milk left in the container after a feed should be discarded. Never refreeze milk that has been thawed.
Transportation Of Breastmilk Carry the bottles of expressed breastmilk in a cooler box with ice packs. Once you reach your destination, transfer the bottles into the refrigerator.

Sterilisation Of Storage Containers And Breast Pumps
Ensure breast pump, storage container and cap are washed and sterilised before each use. This is important to prevent infection to the baby.
Cleaning the utensils
Wash the breast pump, storage container and cap with soapy water using a brush and rinse thoroughly.
Method Of Sterilisation
Boiling method
Submerge washed breast pump, storage container, cap and a pair of tongs in a container of clean water. Cover container and allow the water to boil. Let water boil for another 10 minutes.
Allow water to cool after boiling before discarding water form the container. Leave the sterilised utensils cover in the container.
Wash your hands with soap and water before picking the sterile tongs from the container.
Use the sterile tongs to remove and assemble the utensils. Avoid touching the inner parts of the breast pump, cap or storage container with your hand.
Soaking method (chemical sterilisation)
Wash your hands with soap and water.
Use a plastic container with lid that can hold all the breast pump, storage container and caps. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the use of the sterilising agent and prepare the solution.
Submerge washed breast pump, storage container, cap and plastic tongs in the covered container with sterilising solution. Soak all utensils for at least an hour, without adding anything in.
Wash your hands with soap and water before picking the sterile tongs from the container.
Use the sterile tongs to remove and assemble the utensils.
Avoid touching the inner parts of the breast pump, cap or storage container with your hand.
Drain utensils well before use.
Remember! After each use, wash and soak utensils again before using.
Change the sterilising solution everyday.
Working And Breastfeeding
You may adopt one of the following options to continue with breastfeeding while working.
Total breastfeeding
Express your milk while at work so that it may be given to your baby the next day. And you can breastfeed your baby directly when you are with him.
You may start introducing a bottle of expressed milk to your baby at about 4 weeks after birth. Gradually increase the number of expressed milk feeds at about 2 weeks before you start work.
Partial breastfeeding
Give your baby formula milk when you are at work and breastfeed him directly when you are with him.
About 2 weeks before you start work, gradually wean off the breast feeds which you will not be feeding your baby and replace with formula

Solutions To Some Problems In Breastfeeding
Sore Nipples
This often occurs when you first start breastfeeding.Nipples may become red and cracked or bleeding. Nipples may be sore until they become accustomed to the baby's sucking. Soreness may also be due to poor positioning, removing baby from breast improperly, not allowing the nipples to dry, irritants such as soap, shampoo, rough clothing, plastic liners in bras, or harsh laundry detergents.To prevent having sore nipples:
1) Ensure your baby is positioned correctly
2) Rotate position of baby when feeding
3) Short frequent feedings
4) Make sure baby has large portion of nipple in mouth, not just the tip
5) Make sure baby's mouth is close to the nipple to avoid pulling on the nipple
6) Air-dry nipples and use Eucerin cream as necessary
7) Nurse on least sore side first
8) Always break suction before removing baby
9) If nipples become cracked or bleeds, apply saline soaks, ice to nipples before feeding, or nipple shields

kenapalah masa saya mengandungkan anak yg pertama tak jumpa dgn forum nie. mmg betul2 jahil saya pasal BF nie. over confident lak tu bleh BF. so... tak pernah lah buat search ke ape ke.....
dari ape yg saya baca posting kawan2 nie, mmg byk betulnyer kenapa kempen ni gagal. sayalah salah satu ibu yg gagal tu kerana jahil pasal BF. saya tak tau mcm mana nak store milk while i'm working. believe it or not.... saya tak tau langsung pasal adenyer breast pump yg efficient to collect ur milk for storage. pade fikiran saya.... bile kerje, mcm mana nak BF anak. org sekeliling saya, my family my fren semua yg bekerja bleh dikatekan 100% bottlefeed anak dorang. so, saya ingat its a norm. i tot bleh bottlefeed my baby day time and BF at night. rupanyer dgn cara mcm tu, anak saya jadi refuse nak BF dan lastly air susu kering sendiri. bende2 ni takpernah terlintas lam fikiran saya
kempen jer tanpa INFO lengkap yg boleh sampai kpd setiap ibu tak guna jugak. nurse di setiap hospital kerajaan spptnyer diajar to educate kaum ibu. bukan nyer memaksa tanpa memberi penjelasan spt kes cikdee. hospital swasta pon ptt main peranan.
insyaallah my next pregnancy.... i nak total BF my baby. thanx to all kerana mmberikan saya ilmu yg tak ternilai harganyer nie :love: |
