Today's Development

Around 4.00am, I was soundly sleeping and suddenly I heard Dinky's Aeisyah's mumbling. It's time for her drink (nursing la). I was so sleepy at that time and I didn't wake up immediately. Then, her mumbled sounded alarming, so I straightly turned to her side. To my horror, Dinky Aeisyah fell from her matress! Poor little girl...
After that, when I dropped Dinky Aeisyah off at the baby sitter's house, she suddenly lifted up her right arm 90 degree towards me as if trying to wave goodbye! But her fist was tightly clenched. Yay!

Breastfeeding Pillow



When I was pregnant with Dinky Aeisyah, I went to SOGO to buy all her stuff there. Since I'm residing in Kemaman, the choice of baby stuffs over here are very limited. Mr Vediaz and I made the trip to SOGO when I was in third trimester. Aaaah.....so letih! One of the thing that I purchased was Lollipop nursing pillow and I got it cheap. When I used it first time with Dinky Aeisyah, my Lollipop is quite heavy. Not so flexible I might say. But I stuck with my Lollipop. During my confinement, Mr Vediaz brought me back to his mak's home at Bangi. I persuaded hubby to go to Susuibu because Dinky Aeisyah was having a pretty bad latch. There, I met Pn. Kamariah, who is the founder of Susuibu. She help me with the latch problem but I still didn't get it :( I'm a visual spatial person, so I don't respond well with verbal explanation or still picture. I tried My Brest Friend Nursing pillow and it was so easy using it. It is lightweight, can be rotated along your waist while baby is still on top of it. You can actually walk with this pillow! After I got back from Bangi, I desperately need that pillow. But, the RM189.00 price was a set back...emmmm. I search My Brest Friend at ebay and luckily I found one. Alhamdulillah! The seller wanted to sell her My Brest Friend at RM80.00! Kachinggg! So, I bought My Brest Friend and the pillow looks like new. Nursing was easy using My Brest Friend compared to Lollipop.

Meet My Brest Buddy

When I started breastfeeding Dinky Aeisyah, I used Avent Isis during my confinement. Even tough my per session yield is around 2 to 3oz, I thought having a manual pump would be enough. Boy, was I wrong. Dinky Aeisyah was born on 31st of August (ain't she lucky!), so I was needed to attend school for another 3 weeks before end of last year's school holiday. I planned my pumping session at a catalogue room in my school's library; with my headmistress's permission of course. I took 40 minutes per session! With that time frame, no doubt I will running like a crazy lady just to catch up my classes for next year's 2008 session. During my school holiday (Aaah HEAVEN), I started to consider my options on an electric pump. Be it 1) Medela Pump In Style , 2) Ameda Lactaline or 3) Spectra 3. My luck striked in December! Momslittleones was having this breastpump sale. All pumps were 15% less. Without any hesitation, I ordered the Pump In Style. Wooo Hooo.....Till to this day, whenever I look at my buddy, I couldn't help thinking that my pump is the mercedes of all pumps!


Dinky Aeisyah's Organic Food Are Here


When Dinky Aeisyah started solid last month, I tried to find any baby cereal without sugar in it but to no avail. So, I started her with only rice porridge. Bland, tasteless porridge. However, I somehow stumble to my dear WickedMum who is selling a range of organic baby food, namely Rafferty's Garden and Organix, through www.wanitamelayu.com. (sorry, I still learning on how to link my post) She totally save my day. First, I started Dinky Aeisyah with Rafferty's Garden Multigrain cereal and Organix Banana Porridge. Now, Dinky Aeisyah is already seven months old and she prepares for something more grown-up in her sense! Just this morning, my order arrived safely, Alhamdulillah. The yellow one is Rafferty's Garden Banana Porridge. Next to it is a box of Organix Soft Rusk. In front of these two is Rafferty's Garden Lumpy Puree. At the front are Organix Finger Foods; Sweetcorn, Carrot and Tomato. Yummy.....

Check out my ticker

I made a ticker when I was pregnant with Aeisyah but never used it. During that chaotic part of my life, I was so busy with daily traveling, back and forth from Dungun to Cherating (160KM) not to mention I was soooo pregnant! Now hail my new improved ticker!

p/s Isn't my Dinky Aeisyah is a cutie pie? I can brag in my own blog right :)

My Dose of Sri Munawwarah

Last weekend hubby brought me to Sri Munawwarah at TTDI. I've been eyeing the Munawarrah headscarf like 5 years ago. Aaaaa.....finally. Couldn't describe how blissful I was when I entered the Munawwarah's doorstep. I bought 2 tudung T and 2 anak tudung. I've been wearing the anak tudung to school for two days now and I like it despite you need to get used on wearing it. The Munawwarah workers told me that they usually organize a workshop on how to wear their scarf. If only I'm staying in KL, I would surely go.....
