Another Great Testimonial from A Breastfeeding Mommy: Cindy :)
Hi, I am Cindy and I managed to breastfeed my eldest daughter Annabelle for 2 years and 8 months. I would say that to breastfeed a baby is not an easy task for me but I was able to do it successfully with the help from wonderful people out there.
I recalled 3 years back when I first delivered my first daughter; I made a phone call to Dr. Jamie from MMPS. Even though we haven’t met before and just spoke a few times on the phone but she came to the hospital immediately just to show me the right way for the baby to latch on and give me some advice. She also told me it’s very convenient to find a baby room in the major shopping complexes. On the other hand, Dr. Balkees helped me out with consultation and unclog the milk duct that is stuck when I have nursing difficulties.
Last but not least, I want to say thank you to Baby Paradise for making all this miracle happened. It was Su Li who introduced and borrowed me a breast-pump - Spectra 3. At the beginning, my milk supply was not sufficient to feed my baby during my confinement month. Su Li gave me this breast pump as a trial before I even purchased anything from her. I then tried out the Milkmaid Tea and it improved the breast-milk volume tremendously.
Making my breastfeeding journey more challenging, I was working in Perak and my family is Penang thus I was feeling lost and wonder how could I possibly fulfil my dream of fully breastfeeding my little baby. I was feeling frustrated and Su Li encouraged me to take a half year leave until the baby can eat solid food and also I will not be so stress out. I listened to her suggestion and took half year off with unpaid leaves, this decision has made my breastfeeding journey a lot smoother and at ease.
Breastfeeding journey comes with joy and also hard work. Although it does not come naturally for me and I was once doubtful, however the motto “Seek and you shall find; Ask and you shall be given” is true. I ask the right person and seek help from people with experiences e.g. Baby Paradise and the mother supporting group and it helped me to succeed. I believe all of us as mommies can give our baby the greatest gift of all - mother’s milk that no other formula can ever replace. As you watch your children growing up healthily and bonding with you, you will surely know that you have made the right decision.

Lovely Breastfeeding Story From Fiona Liew ~ My Children, My Love & My Life!
My children, my love, my life!
My breast feeding journey began even before my child was born. I did a lot of research about the benefits of breast milk than and listened to many success stories. And I prayed a powerful prayer. I
told God to provide me with ‘overflowing supply of breastmilk’ ! That was the theoretical part...easy.
I was emotionally and physically prepared for the breastfeeding journey for both my child. My first born, Sonia, I breastfed her for 6 months. My second child, Zach, was born in February 2009, and I am still breastfeeding him. He is turning 3 years in two months time. I consider this a success story.
Like many mothers, I endured through many sleepless nights, endless days of engorgement, interrupted sleep as I have to express my milk and to breastfeed – every 2 hourly just to keep the milk flowing (12 am, 2am,4 am,6 am etc – woken up by engorgement ) , sore nipples, stiff back due to bad positioning, not enough sleep during the day and last but not least, the ‘unappreciative’ comments that made by others. I was mobbed and being called a moo-moo cow, and laughed at for having Cup Size D but I reminded myself to be proud of that – and focused only on giving the best milk to my baby.
Fortunate for me, I stayed in Jiayi Confinement home after childbirth for both my child. The centre provided me the support, advise and even equipments (Spectra dual pump by Baby Paradise) that complemented my decision in breastfeeding. And at the same time, I learn and get support from other new mothers there. That made the entire journey a smooth and exciting one – especially for a new mother; knowing that I was not alone.
During that one month stay, I was given the peace of mind to only breastfeed my child and expressing milk on time (every 2 hourly) I stored my breast milk in freezer; enough for the next 2 weeks supply. Another issue that came up was insufficient freezer ! So there I was, ‘loaned’ my friends and relatives’ freezers! On my second child, my supply of breastmilk was so overwhelming that I was also feeding 6 other babies at the same time.
Knowing that I will be back to work in 2 weeks time after that, I begin a regime to feed and express milk in the morning , and express at lunch, and direct feeding in the evening.
The positioning that we choose is also important. With Sonia, I breastfeed her mainly by expressed milk – and this lasted only for 6 months. However, with Zach, I adopted the lie-down position, this made the entire breastfeeding no-sweat as I can still ‘sleep’ while breastfeeding. I have also invented my own clothes to wear for discreet and friendly breastfeed ( tube and spaghetti dresses) .
The amazing part is that, I lost 20kg within 1-2 months after childbirth. I saved on the milk powder consumption. My babies get a better immunization through my breast-milk and I feel so complete that I am able to give the best milk to my babies at their early stage.

Great booster for breastmilk production! [NEUNERS Nursing Tea]
We have received multiple feedbacks on the latest NEURNERS Nursing Tea
Posting a mother's review:-
I have bought NEUNERS Nursing Tea as recommended by Su Li in helping to boost up my milk supply. After 2 days taken the tea, surprisingly the milk supply increased by 1oz. As i continued taken the tea till a week, i get additional 3oz milk. It motivates me to continue my BF journey. unlike other herbs,it will be tasteless when making the second cup. I usually make up a tea bag of NEUNERS ith a litre of plain water. Thanks to Su Li for bringing in this product exclusively for BF mama.
