My Mum breastfed us for less than a month but my Chinese Ahma breastfed all my 12 uncles and aunties. Our Mums' generation was caught up with the "formula milk" fad but slowly, breastfeeding is making a comeback. Keep up your good work - I admire you for going the long, hard road by yourself. Do keep in touch ok? Who knows, you just might find a BFG buddy here! Mott - I respect you for having 3 kids too. No harm if you didn't breastfeed No. 2 and 3...it's all up to the individual, I always say. I'm quite nervous about being able to breastfeed No. 2 when it happens too. Jen - I'm all for rooming-in which I did right after he came home with us. I had quite a long, tough delivery and the staff could see that I WAS exhausted but still keen on breastfeeding. Guess they just wanted to help when they can. I didn't find my milk coming in late to be a problem because he was contented after each feed :-) Vien and Stupe brought up valid points about hospitals in Asia. In fact, many of them don't even allow the fathers in to witness the birth! Hopefully, we'll progress step by step. Vien - Yours came in the 5th day too? I never worried about it coming in earlier since the baby books mentioned that it can be 3-5 days. Stupe - Wow, your wife is one determined Mum! My hat's off to her for hanging on despite all the difficulties she faced. Glad she got the chance to enjoy breastfeeding No. 2 :-) Miloh - Thanks for sharing your experiences here :-) I love those days when we talked about breastfeeding! Hmm...that staff nurse sounds like the night nurse I got when I was waiting for the 10 cm dilation :P They're everywhere, aren't they? Good thing you didn't let her get you down. Kambate! (Hehe, I learned this Japanese word recently) Ju-Lian – Thanks for your nice comments :-) I’m glad to hear that my blog is helpful to Mums out there!
