This entry dedicated to my friend whose now officially a FATHER---->ezran
He asked me on FB...yet since I'm kinda of "buta FB" so here the answer insted of FB
"Congratulation ....now you are a father...
Do congratulate your wife for me...cute la baby"
So what's the preparation to breastfeed your baby (based on my experience and observation)
1. Niat utk breastfeed mesti ada - ezran (checked)
2. Buy a good breastpump that suits you...eg...electric, battery operated, manual - ezran (checked) I know that he bought his wife Medela if I'm not mistaken
You may want to try it prior to your purchase. Kot berat ke pam tu...nak saiz kecik ke yg pesen bleh muat handbag :P
Kalau kiter selalu travel mungkin kena bli yang battery operated sebab kadang2 tempat yg kiter pergi takder electrical point yang bersesuaian. Bleh bli yang manual tapi time consuming...kalau kerje kiter jenis rushing hmmmmmm manual type ni tak sesooooooaai gitu.
Better bli yg double pumping sebabnya bagi KEBANYAKAN ORANG - less time consuming dan tempoh penyusuan lebih lama berbanding single pump. Selalunya kalau single pump ni...time pam sebelah..sebelah lagi sure bocor gak...hmmm tak selesa gitu
3. Bli cooler bag kalau perlu (selalunya perlu since kiter nak travel at least to and fro tempat kerja. Kalau kena outstation lagi dan yg sewaktu dengannya)
4. Bli botol banyak2 / tempat simpan susu eg plastik yang dikhaskan utk simpan EBM (expressed breast milk) atau tempat dadih (plastik dier jenis selamat digunakan utk simpan EBM). Trust me...kebanyakan pumping mother memang perlukan bender alah ni ...
5. Bli bender2 di atas kalau boleh masa 7 bulan ke atas pregnancy (Takut terberanak awal, anak kena masuk spital sebab jaundice dan sbg)
6. Urut "B" sebelum beranak bagi memudahkan pengaliran susu. Tapi kalau tak buat pun takper
KESILAPAN PARA IBU SELEPAS BERANAK
"Susu tak keluar...macam mana ni? Bagi formula jela".
Jgn bayangkan susu keluar memancut2 lepas beranak.
Newborn needs colostrum the so called "gold liquid", the first perfect protection for them. Dan selalunya kolostrum memang keluar sikit. Massage B and you gonna see yellow to orange in color,thick and sticky.Colostrum low in volume tu sebab orang selalu dok sebut measures in teaspoons rather than ounces), but high in concentrated nutrition for the newborn.
Newborn needs small quantity yet frequent feeding. Some babies breastfeed even hourly and some up to 3 hours. Tu agak penat sikit. Jadi para bapa tolong2la ibu2 ni. Tolong urut belakang ke..bagi minum air ke..haus ooooo
Colostrum has a laxative effect on the baby, helping him pass his early stools, which aids in the excretion of excess bilirubin and helps prevent jaundice.(That's why some says...Jgn bagi baby tido lama sangat ..kejutkan utk minum susu dan stimulate BM selain utk kurangkan risiko kuning).
Tapi kiter misinterpret kata susu tak cukup...insyaallah cukup. Lepas 3..4 ari baru susu matang produce. Susu matang ni hak yg kaler putih...dan keluar bnyk tu. Ha nii size perut baby. Kecik je kan.
So, macam mana nak check baby cukup susu ke tak?
Baby berak kaler ijau...pastu kuning kaler hak mustard. Tapi memang kalau BF baby berak banyak kali..wafiy sampai 6 ..8 kali gak...sampai hubby kena bli pampers paling besau berkoyan2 :P. Lepas tu masa susukan baby akan nampak/dengar baby telan/minum susu. Baby pun bijak...kalau dah kenyang..nanti die benti.
7. Buat stok susu sebelum naik kerja. Mungkin 2 3 minggu sebelum naik kerja. Tapi ada orang buat seawal beberapa hari selepas susu matang keluar. Tak kisah.
8. Ajar baby guna botol/syringe 2 3 minggu sebelum masuk kerja. Kalau baby ada nipple preferences bleh la bli puting bersesuaian cam MAM etc
9. Set your routine pump for work and during weekend
10. Support from family or friend. Kadang BF ni nampak cam mudah. Tapi selalunya ada macam2 hal jadi... susu low la... nipple crack la....stok tak cukup la etc. Mommy needs support from loved ones...kalau tak ramai gak yg putus di tengah jalan
Apa pun HAPPY BREASTFEED
