I have been eager to share my Maternity Checklist since May but just recently dig out some photos and finally, I can share this to you!
I am a second time mother, I delivered two boys via C-Section delivery and last April was my recent operation. I am still recovering and gaining strength. I am always tired out of strength because I do breastfeed my baby and do other chores at home. But thankful, due to breastfeeding I lost a lot of weight. I am now 48 kgs :) No food diet needed, purely breastfeeding! Plus points is that my baby is having his full nutrition at a convenient, budget-friendly way! A tip I can share is that, it helps a lot when you join a breastfeeding seminar before you give birth, it does help a lot! Another tip is that you make a checklist like what I did and pack before your due date for a hassle-free, worry-free delivery... Lastly, pray...
