Review on Ameda breast pump

HO YEAHHHH!!

I have received my Ameda last week. However it has not been properly utilized yet, since belum start kerja ya..belum diguna untuk heavy duty. But I must say I'm quite pleased with this pump. Mechanism yang sangat simple dan tak banyak parts yang nak kena basuh. Tapi kena careful ya, make sure tubing dia tak basah masa guna, takut nanti backflow ke machine. Tubing tu tak perlu basuh pun actually sebab tak kena apa2. Yang perlu basuh hanya the diaphragm, valve dan flange.

So apa yang best pasal pump ni?

NIP..what say you?

Nursing In Public (NIP)

I have always been an advocate of breastfeeding. It just never occur to me to feed any of my children with none other than Human Milk. But what I didn't know is, it's not easy to fully breastfeed your baby plus be a FTWM. It never occur to me that we need to pump, store, thaw blah blah. Perhaps i'll do another entry on just this.

But what I'm more curious now is, how do you feed a baby when you go out? I have not had this problem yet, since masih dalam pantang (Day 30 and counting). So i googled and wallah, hebat rupanya issue NIP ni.
Apparently in September, in conjunction with World Milk Sharing Week, ada flash mob for breastfeeding mothers in KLCC. Twas organized by HM4HB, Malaysia. No, they did not flash their boobies out, but they did nurse their babies in public. Very gutsy and amazing indeed, please have a look: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pY2wqltqJII

What do you think of NIP?

I would love to go to India!

India..

Yes, India. I have always wanted to go there.

Colourful saris in front of Taj Mahal

To go to Hyderabad where the colours make your eyes dance and the food makes your tounge sweat,
To go to Kerala which is believed to be God's own country,
To go to Agra where the scenic view makes your heart skip a beat,
and..of course to visit Taj Mahal which is the symbol of love for eternity.

Don't Shake The Baby

Shaken Baby Syndrome (SBS)


As a new mother, i spend most of my freetime (while breastfeeding) attached to a smartphone and read all sorts of information about babies. Amongst all, this is what I fear most.

The increasing number of sudden death due to SBS is alarming. If not death, SBS can also result in permanent brain injury. Usually these baby is taken care by a maid or sent to unlicensed day care centre. What's sad is, all these happened unintentionally and merely due to lack of knowledge.
The act of shaking the baby can easily shake the babies brain and causes damage to it. This is due babies having a large head and the neck is still weak plus not yet fully developed brain.

So, what do we do to avoid SBS?

3D/4D Scan

Excited ?

Remember when we are all excited to see our baby for the first time but all we get to see is black and white photos, that is a 2D scan.
With 3D scans you can really see your baby!

A good 3D scan

What is actually a 3D/4D scan?

Krabi Part 2

Now, let's continue our journey...

After 2 nights in Phi Phi, we took the speedboat back to the mainland, Krabi. It's totally different lah from Phi Phi. Dia lebih kurang macam Pantai Cenang kat Pulau Langkawi...much NICER, of course :)

We stayed at a really nice hotel, Vogue Resort & Spa at Aonang. Also booked from Agoda and at that time it was on promotion. I think we payed less than RM 200 / night. The room is supernice, memang suitable for honeymoon gitu.
