When Simplicity is the Best

Talking about motherhood. Sometimes when things get so advance, that we tend to take a little bit of everything for granted. As I am not a seasoned/experienced mum, I am still learning. At times, I can get so hooked up in surfing stuff, kononnya I want the best for the kid that I forgot that if sometimes traditional method is still the best.

Breastfeeding.
Have you bought your pump? I had mine. Its a double pump. Brand XXX
What's dat? Mine is a manual pump.
Owh, manual doesnt work as efficient as this. You have never heard of it? Its famous, its from the internet.
Erk, not that I have heard of...
Its less the effort, less the time, double the outcome.

Yes, while it is good to have the best, my SIL herself express milk without any pump. Just with the correct massage, & she gets more milk than I do. I had to learn from her and it really works. Though I still use my manual pump, I do express without pump as well after pumping.
*just wondering if chinese is genetically with less milk? but then again, all is planned as it should be.

Milk Formula
One thing that I would applaud. That modern mum nowadays recognize the importance of breastmilk. Not to imply anything, but mostly chinese mum would feed the baby with formula in the 80s. My Aunties were all formula mums. But atleast now they recoginse that milk at its simplest form, breast milk is the best.

Diaper
I had searched high & low for the perfect diaper. Disposable, soft, non-rash, yet cheap. Yet, my mum managed to talk her way into me using cotton diaper. Its all of the above, except for it is non-disposable but more eco-friendly. Abit more work, but I am lucky to have my mum helping out on this. Yes, we still do use Pet Pet, or Mamy Poko; but at minimal usage. Cotton diaper really helps reducing rashes alot. Anyway, Aydeen prefers nya-turrr when he is not wearing anything.

Toys
We tried buying all the sophiscated toys. Even if it burns the pocket, we still go for it. As long as it mentions - enhances, stimulates, educational etc. Turns out kid nowadays prefer to play with simple household thing. Rug, powder, chair, combe etc etc. Hehe, sounds like a lazy mum here. Still I guess I need to be a lil bit more innovative to create some educational games here. My flashcards became his teething soother.

Yup, guess a lil bit of traditional method wouldnt hurt at all. Infact, the simpler it is, the better the result. Well, this is my just my lashes.

My Typical Weekend

Weekend was well spent with lil Aydeen =) Only managed 1 hr erg, 5km jog for both Sat & Sun. Other than that, trained Aydeen swimming & shopping as well =)


I felt like joining as well =)


Kuak Lentang

Shopping frenzy for CNY.. Aydeen felt asleep in his kangaroo pouch =) sian die...

Aydeen's Xue Kuan (bad habit)

Owh, missing him from work... pinned pic of him in my cubicle.. I think i need to pin up more =) calling mum constantly to update, asking mum to mms me his daily pic. hehe.. mummy yg lebih2 xue kuan.. freak betol..

He somehow has already develop some of his good/bad habit. And I am still struggling to train more often, when can I bring him for a long jog? or thought of pulling him on a float while rowing sometimes comes across my mind..

He likes to shoo me away, if i kacau him during breastfeeding. His hand will automatically halau mine away =)

If good mood, he would be like a gentleman. Doesnt cry eventhough he is hungry, smile sokmo.. Only sucks ferociously when given milk. If he is in a bad mood, he would still shout a cry or two even with milk in his mouth...

Also, he likes peeing barebuttedly =) wrap him in diaper, & he refuses to do so. Well, still it depends on his mood. At times when mood is good, he even allow us to potty train him..
shhh~ shhh~ & out comes the rain & wash the spider out...

At his manjaest time, he will cry out loud if we put him alone, left long enough, he will start playing by himself. Or it could be vice versa, that he shouts out so loud that we thought it something happened...


- recently at kenduri kawin, my housemate looks the same as she was in 2003. She is a mother already.. The bride is gorgeous =) hehe, kantoi dukung bb senget


There is so called blind spot during our jog.. he could be cooing & baby talking while we jog, & then suddenly falls asleep at certain spot, the blind spot. We still configuring at which part that he falls asleep. Tau2 jer after jog, coach is already felt asleep.

As for his bad habits, need to get ready rotan.. daddy can have the honour to be the bad cop.. I will be the good cop.. hehe..

Owh... i miss him edy.. cepat lar 5.30pm =)

Balik kampung last weekend. Had a great weekend as we had 3 kiddos celebrated (husband's side). They are 1-2months apart. Me myself had my akikah done together as well... It was a grand kenduri after all, thanks to my in laws. Despite little Aydeen in all blue, we had about

10 makciks asking; lelaki ke perempuan?
3 makciks asking; perempuan ke??
2 makciks confirming, lelaki kan??

Auwwsome.. Guess its his thick lustrous hair manage to confuse everyone =) Yet, thanks to all the makciks for helping out =)

Monday Blues Again....

Started work today, earlier than scheduled. As there is emergency in office, reluctantly I have to start work earlier. Called back home few times just to check on little bb.. Takut die tak ble adjust, mummy nyer takde.. However, turned out that he is tougher than I thought.. It was actually I yg bey tahan (tak tahan)... I think I will need to carry lil Aydeen to work... it should be cool.. Cross my finger for 3 months maternity in future =)

Profile 1 : Indon maid..


Profile 2 : Filipino maid

p/s 1: btw, I am glad that there is baby sling. As for now, I can go shopping without fearing that lil one will cry.. just a pat at his butty & he snuggles back into zzz... thanks reita for the intro =) i just wish i can bring him to the office =)

Post - Labour

It seems that the few stubborn kg of fats decided to stay on... Hence, there I am with muffin-top love handle; flappy tummy (which happen to flap in 4 directions - up, down, left N right), bursting chest; auntier look, few tone fairer; & heavier... N etc etc... Enough talk!!! More action!!!!

Started ergo daily about 3 weeks ago. It is really a great piece of equipment as it is an impact free overall body workout. Truth is, I could still feel my groin N slight pelvis pain for now, hence ergo is another alternative other than swim. Read that those bone softening hormone will still linger around for another 3 months post delivery before it goes away. (act da tua...)

Curik2 went for an indulging jog @ Bkt Jalil today.(had to sneak my way out from Aydeen) Had to compromise with mum taking turn looking after the king. It was the hardest 5km jog ever. despite lack of sleep & overused body; jog was funner than ever. Cant wait for dunno-when-the-next jogging session. Jog is a slow listening to body jog

.
Vampire like Aumtie... I wanted the wolfy look...



How could I start earlier working next week?? Already missing him.. Thanks to nasty emergency call from office =(

Baby's Favourite Activity..

Berwrestling sampai tertido =)

Yes, finally off confinement period... managed to resume ergoing for 3 days, but not without much hassle..

Jogging at this point (6 month preg) still felt at ease. It is always the honeymoon 2nd trisemester. Performance dropped about 50 - 70% this time. If previously 10k at 1hr, it would be 1.7hrs at this rate. Breathing still ok, leg still felt good after jog. Swimming is still manageable. However, more MC required, mainly sebab banyak berjalan2.. hehe.. Stress level easily shoot up, somehow it is still manageable =) how i wish i can still jog nowadays =) Awww.. bb, cepat lar sept

Something in the Closet

No worries, the closet will be full in no time.. =)

Cheap but durable.. can you still have both cheap & durable stuff nowadays?? Looking forward to a jog with babe soon.. =) Anyone yang sewaktu dengannye, lets jog together... =)

Hope the adventure racers have great time tomorrow =)
