wa tak tipu la kalau wa cakap wa nervous gila nak sambut puasa besok pagi.macam mana la gamaknya nak menyusu kat faeq nanti.cukup ke tidak.kalau faeq 24 jam dengan wa, inshaallah wa boleh la lagi.the problem is faeq duduk dengan pengasuh.everyday bila ambil faeq dari rumah pengasuh, bila check beg susu dia wa mesti stress kalau tengok botol kosong banyak.
botol banyak = kena pam lebih -___-"
tapi setakat ni cukup je inshaallah.wa rasa ini lah pengorbanan seorang ibu yang menyusukan anak.besar pahala inshaallah.penat-penat pun, wa doaaaaa semoga cukup la susu untuk faeq.amin ya Allah :')
so buat research sikit, jumpa bahan bacaan yang wa rasa kita boleh gunakan and share bersama.
semoga Allah permudahkan usaha kita.amin :)
1. Eat during suhoor! And eat well
You may be type of person who only drinks during suhoor (pre-dawn meal) but it is very important to get enough nutrients and calories during the day for yourself and also for the milk production. Please make sure you eat! And take this chance to also follow the sunnah of the Prophet (PBUH) of delaying the suhoor time. Remember to not over-eat and take some fruits! Fruits last longer in the tummy.
2. Consume dates and honey
Do not underestimate the power of dates! The sunnah of the Prophet (PBUH) is the best practice. Take dates during suhoor – it’s the best energy provider during the day. I didn’t believe it at first but it makes a lot of difference. When I missed eating them, I felt so tired and lethargic. Also, take a spoon of honey. You’ll need these two important ingredients to keep yourself energised.
3. Extra meal supplement
I took Shaklee’s Energizing Soy Protein (ESP) drink last year, which helped to keep me feeling full longer during the day. I’m going to try Shaklee’s Meal Shake this time around because I don’t quite like the taste of the ESP. Sometimes a glass of Milo works for me too. I don’t do this every day; only when I think that my suhoor food is insufficient to keep me full.
4. Remember to take your milk booster during suhoor
Different people seem to have different forms of milk booster. Some prefer malt drinks like Horlicks. What works for me are oats and habbatus sauda capsules, which I took last year. It is important to take what you believe is your milk booster because I personally think that milk boosters are just the game of the mind. What you think works, will work.
5. Drink plenty of water! Avoid caffeinated drinks
Caffeinated drinks can decrease the liquids in your body and affect your milk production. Ensure that you drink plenty of water progressively (not at one go) from the time of breaking fast until suhoor time.
6. Think positively and have a strong mind
This goes back to point #4. If you think you can, you can. Stay strong and always end your suhoor with “I can survive today”.
7. Don’t overtire yourself during the day
Do your house chores at night, ask for assistance from your husband, rest as much as you need during the day, read the Quran, do zhikir and relax your mind by taking a short nap. Tired bodies produce less milk.
8. Make lots of dua!
Have faith and make lots of dua to Allah to give you strength and ease your fast.
9. If your milk production drops, don’t panic too soon!
Our body has a miracle way of adjusting to a certain routine. Let’s say if you’re trying to lose weight and you cut your food intake, you will start off feeling very hungry the first few days and then suddenly, you’re used to it. The same goes for milk production. You will notice that initially, your milk production will drop slightly. Ensure that you eat and drink well in between breaking fast and suhoor, allow a few days and you will notice that your body automatically adjusts to the new routine. Your milk production will get back to its normal (or close to normal) amount, insyaAllah.
10. Listen to your body and don’t force yourself
Think of your baby’s and your own health first. If you think that you’re getting sick, or that your baby is getting less wet nappies than the usual or looking dehydrated, or if you’re worried that your baby is not getting enough nutrients, don’t force yourself. Muslim women who are pregnant or breastfeeding may be exempt from fasting if they feel that their health or the baby’s health would be negatively affected by the fasting.
jom kita buat yang terbaik untuk anak!
selamat menjalani ibadah puasa di bulan ramadhan! :)
