Milk.Milk.Milk.

Lets talk about milk today.
Saja sebab stress mlm td Iman dh tumpahkan 5oz susu br pump yg letak atas meja xsmpat nk simpan lagi.
Bertutup.Tapi bila the bottle dh kena baling ala2 lontar peluru dgn kekuatan olimpic athlete.
Maka terbuka lah jua tutupnya yg rapat itu.
Dh lah letih br nak belajar2 buat tendum pumping.

Sedih.Sampai menangis.
Iman pun nangis sb tgk mommy nangis.huhu~

Ok lets talk about happy things la plak.

As of now, Amsyar is 4mths 1week old.So far susu utk amsyar still ada.still cukup.
Still with frozen stock wlaupun tak seberapa. Alhamdulillah diberi peluang utk still BF and stock up EBM for my lil precious..

Syukur sgt2.Hopefully could meet my 6mths target.For now we must target small first.
Achieve.Then move on!~






I've came through some mommies with 1200oz per month frozen stock which is amazingly a lot.
Murah betul rezeki dia.Mashallah~

Tp bila kira2 (i kan engineer-so we count for facts), cuba bygkan yer- 1200oz per mth so in 1 day average mommy should be able to stock up to 40oz. Mak aih..40oz stock!!
If in Amsyar's case- he needs 24oz bekal per day (6 times 4oz)
If plus the stockings target-mommy needs to pump up to 64oz (40oz+24oz)!

Mind calculating to achieve this..hmm..Let's see..
If in 24 hrs, you pump 12times (2hrs in gap). Each session-you should get 6oz.
If you pump 6 times- each session you should get 12oz.
If you have to pump 6times then the sessions should be, maybe 6am,8.30am,11.30am,2.30pm,6pm and last session 11pm?.I think if you need to BF at nights the most sessions you could make it is 6-no?

That is really gigih ok?But is that possible for me?
Realisticly-it is.cuma antara nak atau tak.and need extra stimulation for getting the 12oz each session target!~




Oppss..too many numbers ya?sorry can't help it ;p
I'm not targeting the 1200oz frozen stock per mth tho.
Just getting the amazing facts into picture.


So far i have found out that some things really makes BM much a lot than usual.
Let me share.As it works for me.

Best booster.


1. A happy mommy makes happy milk (ahh?ayat apakah ni). But this is true.Be happy.Chase away the bad thoughts.
2. What makes mommy happy? Favorite food!!!!!!! (tak kesahlah apa pun!).
If coffee makes you happy-go for it.Better than eating oats in pain and nak muntah.
3. Lots of water. I mean lots and lots! Really guys.3L at least.
4. Lots of love.A loving partner is a milk booster.Tak percaya? Tgk mommies pump byk mana every jumaat morning.hehehehe..
5. Soya milk and also rice.Plenty of it.
6. Many so proclaimed milking booster solutions don't really works on everyone.Some may work.But not to all.You name it-spirulina, alfalfa, protein shakes, dried longan, sarsarapilla..People are unique. Trying is no harm.



Well that's my list so far.
Maybe moms out there could share if you have any.






Have a nice weekend mommies!
Create nice memories with your babies :)
They're small young and innocent only once.






Love,

Zahra
