bouncer review

today im going to do a review on bouncers..

alhamdulillah rezeki my baby, cousins dia semua bagi pinjam berjenis-jenis bouncer...hehehe..so he alhamdulillah dapat merasa segala jenis bouncer...

1) Inglesina bouncer

ok this bouncer is very cantik kan..i pinjam from my friend..bouncer ni, is good when your baby is newborn esp..sebab it can go flat, but the babies head lifted sikit, u put baby on top... baby will be comfortable...n dia ada tali at both sides to carry the bouncer around..but of course i tak larat to carry, but habib can.. hehee...the con of this bouncer is, it doesn't bounce much...esp my house yg takda carpet or tikar, its a bit licin, if bounce dia ada bunyi sikit because the bouncer langgar with the lantai...but kalau tak bounce then no problem.. u can adjust that  thing naik turun, follow the mood of the baby...if baby sleepy, can baring flat, if baby nak see around, can naikkan like the picture above...

2) mothercare bouncer

this bouncer price is very reasonable..hundred plus...basic bouncer, but reliable...dia ada getah at the bottom so tak licin...but the problem with this bouncer is, tak boleh adjust...settings macam tu je, kalau nak baby lie flat, kena naikkan the bawah part, n selalunya either i put pillows or naikkan to our coffee table..n then it will be flat..then baru baby will be comfortable...but bila baby dah besar sikit, then ok.

2) fisher price rocker

this baouncer, is more a rocker actually...dia boleh guna sampai baby besar...the kepala part can adjust. and ada that hanging thing yang can hang toys, so yes baby senang distracted to play2...the good part about this bouncer is its tinggi, not flat on the floor like other bouncers...n his cousins yang 2-4 years old pun senang play with him...esp they like to rock him sekali...the problem with this bouncer is also like inglesina bouncer, dia licin sikit..so kalau bounce kuat sikit, the whole bouncer will move...i sometimes feel like its not safe.  Bouncer ni more for bigger babies, like after 3 months sbb the head part tinggi sikit, but u can put it flat for newborn, but kalau flat, dia dah tak boleh bounce dah, so this bouncer bila my baby jr dah 3 bulan baru i started using it...itu pun still badan dia after a while akan senget sbb he still cannot support his body...
this bouncer also has vibrating option..tapi even if i on it, takda effect langsung on my baby, he will still complain nak keluar...

4) baby bjorn bouncer...

this bouncer is by faaaaaaarrrrrr my favorite..its just the best...the bouncer is so solid i dont feel like it can terbalik, or licin or anything...the seat is so comfy, my baby kalau duduk sini dia diam je..kalau bounce him mmg 90% of the time dia akan tido...omg masa i first time used it, i just cannot believe how much my baby loves it..cara dia bounce pun lain the feeling...my 4 year old nephew mmg suka bounce my baby in here...n yes, my baby will mashaAllah eventually fall asleep..imagine a 4 year old boy putting a baby to sleep...but this bouncer only has 1 biiiig flaw..its so mahal...Rm699...mmg if my sister in law tak bagi pinjam, i would never consider buying it..but after using it, mmg i think its worth every cent...belt dia pun, so lembut, tak kacau baby.
also this bouncer boleh flat terus, so its soo easy to bring to  travel, senang to carry n tak berat..no other bouncer we can bring to travel sbb semua bulky. even masa he was admitted kat hospital, we bring this..senang nak put baby to sleep
.my baby will happily sit in here...this is my lifesaver..i jaga my baby alone most of the time when habib is at work, so this has helped me sooooo much...can visit mothercare at the curve to try it out. they hv a display model...

5) Graco swing

this graco swing..mmg my baby suka...it manual..u wind it, n then it will swing on its own..lepas about 20 mins u just wind it all over again...baby jr, bila duduk sini, mmg akan terlelap because dia swing best..baby mana tak suka kan??? the con is, sometimes bila he dah bangun, he will nak pusing to keluar, its a bit dangerous when he does that...so must monitor baby all the time bila atas ni...n bulky sikit this thing..u need a big place...

again alhamdulillah i would like to thank everyone that has been kind enough to borrow us all this bouncers/swing, sampai we didnt have to buy any of these..May Allah swt bless all your kindness...ameen..

diapers and cloth diapers....

alhamdulillah baby boy dah 6.5kgs..mashaAllah..baby weight is increasing well..but mama dia..hmmm berat tak turun2 pun...sedih nya..tsk tsk.i think kena start exercise..i need to loose at least 9kgs lagi utk balik to old weight.

today i would like to share about diapers....

awal2 lagi, anticipating my baby will have sensitive skin like me, i terus start guna mamy poko..because soooo many mums review cakap mamy poko is the best, esp for sensitive skin...

since day 1, baby Jr pun gunalah mamy poko...but my baby poo poo soooo much..astaghfirullah, kadang2 kena tukar diaper 20 times satu hari...tapi sadly my baby kena diaper rash sgt teruk..as i have mentioned before in this story...click here...

lepad tu i tried everything...besides mamy poko..i tried huggies, goon(beli from giant), pet pet..segalanya..all pun still diaper rash...

finally i gave up i went back old school..

kain lampin...

hehehe...

the modern cloth diaper susah nak guna sebab baby sooo small masa tu...

baby boy in kain lampin/nappy

but its senang, when he dah poo poo, i just rendam overnight, by morning rub rub sikit, the nappy dah bersih...

sorrylah, gambar ni masa the fisr week, tak pro lagi nak ikat...thats why lampin longgar...

of course mmg leceh sikit, but pakai diapers pun kena tukar 10-20 kali sehari, so baik guna lampin je ..

now baby jr guna half half..mamy poko n huggies ultra...kadang2 still ada je rashes naik..but alhamdulillah still under control...

after this  i want to start surveying cloth diapers..maybe i want to start with lunatots kot..see how...any suggestions???

saddest commercial....

just wanted to share...ohh i was sooo sedih to watch it...

breastmilk

alhamdulillah baby Jr is almost 3 months now...

the journey all in all is mashaAllah still so beautiful..its amazing your life changes for this small tiny little baby...

today i want to share about my milk...

alhamdulillah i manage to breastfeed him to the last 3 months.

and also alhamdulillah i manage to find something yg trigger my milk so byk...here is the story..

during my pantang time, alhamdulillah susu semua just nice...my baby drinks alot, some people manage to pump n store milk, for myself..mmg susah..everytime i try pump, i get only like 1 or 2oz je..tu pun after that my baby akan bangun n get so angry coz milk macam dah habis...i pumped a few times je..after that i told myself, tak payalah.since milk not yet enough...

after pantang, of course the first place we visited was rumah my metua...n suddenlywhen i was there my milk jadi byk..finally i started pumping...n then balik my house..milk ok, balik just enough...not engorged anymore

n then the next week visited my metua again...n again my milk byk sampai engorged, even after baby dah minum..and again when i balik my house dia ok balik...back to supply n demand...

the 3rd time i pergi, again it happened, this time we stayed for almost a week, n my engorged was so bad, sampai tak tido malam, just sibuk pump n pump...i felt alhamdulilah rezeki, tapi susah jugak, coz i was engorged like crazy..and i heard scary stories kena operate due to mastitis, infection of the breast....takut sgt

n i told myself, sure ada something kat rumah my in laws was a trigger.. so i did a lot of trial n error, to find what is it that i didnt have at my house that i took at my inlaws...nasilah, airlah, roti, bawang ..segalanya i checked..

finally guess what, we alhamdulillah manage to find out what it was...



air sarsi...(sarsaparilla)

so now i know i dont drink that much sarsi...but when i want to stock up milk, i will drink sarsi, n store all my milk..alhamdulillah now i have supply at my house, n rumah inlaws as well just incase..

well to tell the truth, when i was pregnant my morning sickness was so bad that mmg air tak masuk langsung, if i drink plain water i will muntah...and for a few months i could only drink sarsi...

oh alhamdulillah i found the thing that triggers my milk..my mum says mmg lain org lain trigger dia..for my mum it was papaya..for my 1st sis it was garlic, for my 2nd sis it was ubat Habbatus Sauda...tapi mmg lain for all of us...

Habbatus Sauda that my sis took

anyone else would like to share what is it that triggered your milk??

holding my baby...

salam,

today i would like to share my phobia..hehehe...

do u guys experience the same thing where random people u tak kenal come up to you n nak pegang your baby??
i have discuss this with some of my friends, some like some dont..I dont like it at all...if its family or friends or people i know... no problem..but when its random people yg i tak kenal.my goodness it bothers me alot. u never know what they have that can jangkit to my baby, nauzubillah...

dah kena a few times, once masa kat hospital, this lady just came n nak angkat...ada once we all nak makan this nenek datang sempat cium2 lagi..arrrgh...n many more..my sister pernah kena kat wedding we all pergi, senang je aunty tu, yg we all tak pernah jumpa or kenal, ambil  my nephew bawak jalan2..we all terus ambil balik the baby (dahlah kidnapping now dah byk)...baru 2 weeks ago i went to a wedding, ada this girl came to my friend, tanya can i angkat ur baby, geram nak gigit??dia tanya.. nak ckp no kesian..but terus dia bwk baby tu jln2..panic mak dia nak find her baby...

i know some tu niat baik, just nak tgk baby n geram..but cakap2 bolehlah, i pun geram when i see a baby mashaAllah....but dontlah take the baby away from the mother....n kalau deman jgnlah cium baby..kissing spreads so much germs, dahlah babies immune system is still very weak at newborn stage...kesian baby tu jangkit nanti.

my first moment with my baby Jr...fresh from the oven  p/s: yes i was sleeping, i was on GA during my c-sect..long story there..one day inshaAllah i will tell the story....

demam

a few weeks ago, baby boy was not well..at first his cousins batuk2, n then me and my sisters pulak jangkit from the kids, n that was when my baby boy also jangkit...its the first time he fell sick...it was a saturday... and most clinics tutup because it was birthday agung i think..a public holiday..so we went around everywhere to find a peadeatrition. finally i rememebered my friend told me at DEMC ada...even on public holidays...

finally, Doc said to admit him, because he got a lot of phlem, but too young to caugh it out...so we did..

and i have to say from the first moment I was very impressed with the service.

we couldn't get a  room kat pead floor coz it was full, but they put us in a room different floor but sebelah the nicu. pead doc came after 2 hours, checked on baby boy..lama jugak..he played with my son all,  i was so lega, dapat a doctor like that..

after that i was engorged, asked the nurse for help, because i didn't bring anything to pump..i dah force baby boy to drink but he didn't want to, he just kept on sleeping..n then nurse came with electric ameada pump, and glass bottles to pump..they gave me 10 bottles..1 bottle 2 oz...and said after pump, can call the nurse, she will keep it in the nicu fridge. sempat bagi the sticker n pen to label lagi. (which btw masa discharged, they said just bring the bottles home)

besides that, they have this thing called hahaTV, where u can purchase for RM10, and ada like 50 movies u can choose from..sadly 25 of those movies is chinese movies..but ada about 25 lagi malay and english movies..so the whole day me n hubby tak habis2 tgk movies..but rm 10 boleh tahan 24 hours sahaja..after that u have to pay another rm 10 to get another 24 hours.

food not bad the menu...very specific..senang to understand..n then on top of that, they have room service..so since we all stilll lapar, apa lagi room service jela..price room service also tak mahal. all below RM 30.

doc came they next day..again he check and played with baby boy lama...n then i asked the nurse how to mandi him?? coz i didn't bring bath tab or anything..baju je hubby sempat ambil..n then nurse cakap..its ok, we will mandikan him..so they bathed him...all the nurses asyik main2 n check on him...

nurses service was good, but kalau nak compare to kpj, they are a bit young, so experience kurang sikit...but because the place is new, still quite empty, baby boy got alot of extra attention...in kpj hospitals, they are so full n busy..i terkejut demc all of them were so generous

 i had a good experience..in terms of service, i was very pleased and happy..

but bilik dia abit small, i wasnt too happy about the size, sbb in the room ada stroller, ada my breastpump(yes the hospital pump sgt besa, ada dia punya own tray tolak2), ada the table makan..dah penuh dah...toilet is very very clean though...price RM 180 for single bedded room.

overall i have to say if i were to be admitted for something not complicated or common sickness i really would recommend DEMC...
