| That's a breastfed baby! :) |
I'm always proud of myself and Darling that we made the breastfeeding journey through her 18months of age, and still going strong. Though I'm struggling with low supply of late. In the dilemma of supplementing other milk for her. Feeling bad that I'm not providing enough for her needs. Loads of complicated emotions adding into the frustrations.
I'm using one of the best breast pump in the world, Medela Freestyle. It's been so great battling with me through the hardest times. Such a wonderful gift from Hubs. But recently I'm having a bit of problem with the pump. The battery just not charging. Problem starts surfacing right after the 1year warranty over.
Yesterday finally paid a visit to the Medela Service Center in Ampang. After a general diagnosis, it's concluded that the machine is not communicating with the battery. So my only choice is to send it for repair, pray hard that it won't cost me a bomb. Paid RM500 (!!!) for deposit to get a loan unit until my machine is back.
Managed to speak to the service staff for some advice on boosting milk supply. She recommended to take fenugreek, the actual seed instead of powder, since I'm having trouble swallowing the mixed powder drink. About 10-20 seeds, wash, soak in hot water, chew the seed and drink the water. Twice a day. Alright I'm gonna give it a try.
She also mentioned that I should be pumping not more than 3hours interval. Each pump I'll use the massage mode for at least 6mins before going into the pumping mode. Massage helps open the milk ducts and stimulate the let down. By doin that I should be getting more milk than usual. Really?? Why didn't anyone tell me that special technique when I bought the pump?! Well I guess it's better late than never. Tried that for my next pumping session, it seems working well!

Looks like im facing d same problem. using it almost 9mths, i bought it during 7th mths pregnancy. i bought it in US, now i'm in malaysia. do you know whether Medela SC Malaysia can service it too. so, how was your BP? did they replace you a new one?
ReplyDeleteHi Nadia,
Deleteyup they called within a week to inform that the repair fees is RM120, turned out to be the battery housing faulty. So I said go ahead. And the next few days I went to collect my unit and returned the loan unit with my deposit back.
Do go to the Ampang branch, the service person is friendly, and they did a good job repairing my BP.
As for the Bangsar branch which I've heard lots of complaints about the service attitude issues, though I didn't actually visited the branch personally.
Let me know how it goes?

Hi Louise, is your BP is local warranty by Lacta-equip? my bought mine US online, i heard Medela charge double for US set.
ReplyDeleteWhat is the symptom of yr BP when it is not charging? is it the battery flashing with full bar?
Hi Mooi Yew
DeleteMy BP is bought and warranty locally. Not sure about the charges for US units though. But you can always check with the friendly service staff in Ampang branch.
Mine was with the battery flashing while charging but not going up so it's not really charging at all.
Let me know how it goes?
