Sharing my 2 newly purchased books from Kinokuniya. How to teach your baby to read. How to have a smarter baby. I should hv bought this book from my 1st pregnancy. To be frank, those times I never visited any book store and my interest to read book also almost nil except the Pa & Ma magazine. This time, I would say I must put hard effort to read this book and apply the tips whenever I'm able to do it. Masa sangat cemburu. It's not easy to finish reading the book in short time. Baru sampai Chapter 3 ler...




In another note, balancing between kids and beauty home is also not an easy task, and yet very challenging for working mom of 3 (especially when u don't have assistance). This week I plan to to outsource the cleaning tasks to weekend maid but couldn't find one. I lost the contact number of the last weekend maid. Let's google ..mana tau boleh dapat kan.

Just for my personal tracking, I'm currently on my 7th day of fasting marathon. Alhamdulillah. There are another 18 days more to go bebeh!

Tounge Tie
Filed Under () by Farra on Thursday, November 5, 2009

1st time dengar pasal ni. Anda pernah dengar tak?

Tongue tie adalah keadaan dimana satu lapisan kecil di bawah lidah, dipanggil lingual frenulum mengikat dari bawah lidah ke dasar mulut bayi. Ianya terdapat dalam 4 orang dari 1000 orang bayi.

Semoga baby Ammar mahu menyusu badan semula. Aminnn.

Maklumat berguna buat semua ibu-ibu menyusu.

Taken from diaperjungle. Hmm... I just luv my CD.

Lagi satu tips bout CD: Ahad bebaru ni, aku basuh CD guna mesin basuh , ternyata lagi bersih! Kuning-kuning atas CD tu semuanya hilang..amazing btol! Compared with handwash, kuning-kuning tu hilang masa kita jemur bawah terik matahari. Senang la gitu, guna mesin basuh aje wahai ibu-ibuannn.

Nota kaki: Murah aa pakej CD ni! eh aku plak tolong iklan..mmg untung le sapa2 yang nak try guna CD. Aku idokler..dah ada byk CD.

Frugal handsfree pumping
Filed Under (), (), () by Farra on Monday, November 2, 2009

Dalam kehujanan semalam, aku nyinggah kejap kedai fabulousmom untuk membeli nursing poncho, drying pouch dan tak pasal-pasal bby tights jua ( tade dlm list ni :p). Penuh semangat gitu sbb nk mulakan semula double pumping with Ameda.

I found that this method is truly useful. Sambil duk mengadap laptop menjalankan tugas, sesi memerah susu berjalan sgt lancar. Even my officemate didn't know bout it till i told them. Furthermore I don't have to rush during the session compared when I pumped at the store room. So sambil wat koje, pump is running..tup tup susu dh nk melimpah! Aku dpt perah 2 kali je then ptg tak sempat sbb ada discussion till 5.20pm. So, priority to solat then terus balik rumah. Sampai umah, terus nyusu muaz dan sebelah pam guna Avent. Ameda tinggal opis jer.

Hasil perahan sesi pertama hari ini. Ha..nampak tak getah tuh?

Hasil perahan sesi pertama dibahagi sama rata. Dapat 8 oz

Wayar disambung ke BP dlm almari belakang kerusi. Mmg org tak nampak

Drying pouch yg sgtlah berguna. Lepas cuci BP , masuk sume dlm tu & sangkut aje bawah meja hehe

Hasil perahan hari ni. Total 18 oz. Abaikan gambo2 yg kureng jelas ni sbb gambo dr hp.

Kesimpulannya nak buat handsfree and frugal pumping ni senang jek jela..gini:
  1. Sediakan getah, pastikan lebih takut kalau putus. Aku guna getah baru so tahan sket kot. Sebungkus getah tu mak yg beli kat kedai brg plastik dulu.
  2. Gunakan Nursing Poncho. Orang ingat kita ni sejuk kat opis, cam pakai shawl gitu. Kalau buat dlm bilik tak payah la guna ni.
  3. Storage bottle kene lebih sebab masa hansfree pumping sambil layan kerja memang leka ngan kerja. Tengok2 susu dah nak melimpah. Esok aku ingat nak bawa juga la bottleliners tu in casee...
  4. Pasal lagu mp3 dalam pc...so lagi la orang tak sedar bunyi BP tuh.
Selamat mencuba! ahaks

Teruja semula nak berdouble!
Filed Under (), () by Farra on Wednesday, October 28, 2009

Aku teruja semula nak ber'double pumping' semula! For sure, tak jadi pula nak let go my beloved Ameda...sebabnya:

1) Setelah mendapat maklumbalas u all dlm entry before this. TQ bebanyak ehhh
2) Terjumpa blog Neeza ni..lagi2 bila dia share about handsfree pumping
3) Teruja tengok live demo handsfree pumping kat sini, lebih2 lagi depa guna Ameda plak tuhhh!

Ok nanti kalau dh start berdouble balik, kan ku update ok! nak kene cari balik port..nampak cam bilik server tu bley adjust sket.

BPA bottle Bumbble Bee order semalam dr enjoybf dah sampai pepagi tadi masa orang ramai benor kat lif tengah Q. Aku guna bottle liners, susu tumpah plak...guna bekas dadih tak ketat pulak. Ari senin aku dh buang susu dr bekas dadih yang aku dapati macam masuk angin. Tak konfiden le cam tutupnya tak ketat.

Sekarang dah rasa nak beli pumpinpal pulakssss...lepas tu nak cari buku niiiii
My online shopping for Oct 09 :
1) Fenugreek dr sini. Belum pernah makan lagi sbb susu masih banyak tp excited terlebih beli fenugreek :p
2) Baby tights dr sini
3) BPA bottle dr sini
4) Baby sling dr sini

Total cash outflow: RM189. Letak kat sini senang nak hingat in future :p..my personal tracking hehe

Nak let go tak?
Filed Under () by Farra on Monday, October 26, 2009

Sudah masuk 3 minggu bekerja. Hanya 2 hari saja aku menggunakan Ameda. Selebihnya hanya menggunakan Avent Isis Manual. Sebabnya:

1) Kat opis tade bilik yg ada sumber letrik..kalau nak letrik kene gi bilik sebelah surau kat tingkat atas..payah le nak jalan...koje nak settlekan lagi...ada gak kawan soh guna bateri, alah leceh pulak

2) Aku salu ada meeting / training luar pejabat...so Avent kecik senang nak songlap kejap gi perah susu...

So now tgh fikir nak let go Ameda @ mudah.com.my tak. Nak let go ke tak yekk?? So far both my breastpump has performed very well. Ameda fully utilized during confinement. While Avent eventhough the colour turned to yellow, I have used it since Mus'ab, so dah 5 years ++. Sekali perah dapat 4-6oz.

Stok susu pon makin bertambah since Muhammad minum semakin banyak. Malam pon dah kerap bangun sbb nak menyusu. I start label all my stocks since dah banyak dan dah tak boleh hingat susun atur botol susu dengan stok-stok basah yg lain. With the ready stock I'm now ready nak resume balik my pose ganti. Baru ganti 2 hari....huhu.

so.....nak let go Ameda ke tak ekkk??
