#lookingfor car seat stroller

Anyone have experienced using the Doona Infant Car Seat Stroller? Are there any other similar models or Doona is the only one in the market? #advicepls #pleasehelp #firsttimemum #firstpregancy #firstbaby

Yup there is a replica of Doona. It’s called 4-in-1 car seat stroller. You can search for it in Shopee or if you don’t want to spend so much, can consider 2nd hand one on Carousell. I bought a 2nd hand 4-in-1 car seat stroller and I gotta be honest, personally for me, it’s one of the best buys I’ve bought for my little one. She sits still in it, doesn’t fuss, can even doze off to sleep in it without any help. It’s also easy to use. Just that it takes up one passenger seat if you’re putting her in one in the car so you may want to factor that in if you’re riding with more pax. And space to put in the boot of the car since you can’t fold it flat like normal strollers. I would totally buy it again for my 2nd baby. Hahaha.

4months baby difficulty in feedings

Baby is 4months old. Very difficult to feed bottle. She only wants to latch. Been latching her for 15mins each before every feeding both left and right breast but still no breastmilk produced anymore. Tried feeding her by latching for every feeding first and then switching it to bottle when she is half asleep. But nowdays she seems to know the difference. Doesnt want the bottle. Only wants to latch and pacifier. Changed bottles and teats so many times. Nothing suits her. What do i do? I feel very depressed and frustrated every single feeding time. At times I feel i can go crazy.#pleasehelp #firstbaby #firsttimemum

Super Mum

My baby was like that too. Had to go cold turkey. Bottle or nothing. It helped that my husband helped with bottle feeding because when when she saw me, she expected me to latch, and got angry when I gave her the bottle. Some other things u can try include bringing baby out of the house to bottle feed, because that overwhelms the senses for a while. Feeding when sleepy works, because it can’t be falling asleep from latching on, because baby was using that for comfort and you took that away from her and replaced it with a bottle. When baby’s very hungry and tired, try putting her in a stroller, lying on her side, pat her firmly till she’s almost asleep. Then put the bottle in and feed her. All the best!

Most importantly is suitable for baby. Is your baby has any allergy ? Immediate family have a history of allergies. Mine is NAN. there’s two types Nan HA is hypoallergenic. It's recommended for babies who could be prone to having allergies. Suggest you can consult PD or get samples to try ( official website )

When is the best time to buy maternity bras for better support? I’m in week 19 and not sure when to get one. Or what kind to get. I read that nursing bras, get it 1-2 weeks before delivery? #advicepls #firsttimemum

I only started buying in the last few weeks. And even so, I had to change my size as it went up 2 cup sizes 2 wks aft birth when my milk supply increased (not a gd thing for an already big chested mama). So best to buy just 2 or 3 nearer to EDD just in case ur size goes up again once milk comes in.
