Kumpulan Sokongan Penyusuan Susu Ibu Wilayah

ENTRY PANJANG BERJELA

Meh kite bergiat semula buat2 rajin menulis entry. Setelah main tipu sbb asik nk kuarkan permainan Mari Meneka, kini tibalah masanye aku menulis entry yg betol (ape selama ke nih xbetol ke? hehe). Aku rasa cam wajib pulak nk share bende nih.

Setelah lebih setahun tidak mengaktifkan diri dgn support group meeting, akhirnye ahad lepas aku berjaya menjoinkan diri dgn PKS - Kumpulan Sokongan Penyusuan Susu Ibu, bahagian Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur & Putrajaya. Excited okeh nk join, terus terang segala topik kuar aku tak bother sgt, aku cuma teruja nk hadap makanan kawan2 yg lama tak jumpa.

Kebiasaan perjumpaan sebulan sekalik akan diadakan pada hunjung bulan bertempat di Putrajaya & Kuala Lumpur, kena selang2 la baru lah fair. PKS kali ini diadakan di Taman Tasik Titiwangsa yg panas melekit tuh tp aku gigih dtg sorong Suci kt stroller hishhh panas nye! Tapi berbaloi2 kerna selain dpt bergossip share pengalaman & info, konsep potluck yg diadakan mmg sgt lumayan. Bleh naik 5kilo okeh haha..

Sedang kami bergossip berbincang kami terasa diperhatikan..

gila ah hahahah elok aje dr tepi anak Ajui dok berposing cam sarip dol dh aku tgk hah hahahhaa. Kali ini tidak ramai dpt menghadirkan diri tapi kami saja sudah cukup memeriahkan suasana

gambo curik dari Tha

Aku cuba sedaya upaya pose sbb nk nmpak kurus punye pasal hahahaha btw cantek tak jumper aku pakai. nnti bleh check kat fb fashionlot.net (e-store cooming soon) okeh, LIKE aje la terus bleh aku bg diskaun. eh tetiba iklan.

Okek back to the topic. Iye topic kali ini yg kami bincangkan ialah:

PENYUSUAN DI SEPANJANG BULAN RAMADHAN / COPING WITH BREASTFEEDING DURING RAMADHAN

Oleh kerana aku sebok aje makan dan bercakap haha.. Mari sini aku share ape pengalaman aku menyusu dan berpuasa. Perlu di ingat, anda mungkin tahan puasa time sihat atau pon pegnan tp mungkin lembik betol la bila mnyusu dan berpuasa. Dugaan Allah bagi tapi nikmat tak terkata

Okeh ini la proses menyusu yg aku lakukan..

1. Set Minda anda - kite sume aware Ramadhan akan menjelang, set kat mind awal2 yg tubuh badan fizikal mental kite akan cukup kuat berpuasa, senmang cite saiko lah diri itu. doa la byk2 mintak kat Allah, jgn la awal2 ckp 'aku nnti xlarat kot nk pose' eeii nyiampah tul la sapa yg ckp cmtu..

2. Sahur - jangan sesekali tak bersahur, kalu malas sekalikpon cuba lah ingat ayat ini 'bukan umat Nabi Muhammad jika tak bersahur' gulp aku terus rasa cam nk lompat dari katil bila dgr ayat nih tau!! tp jgn bimbang aku pon struggle utk bgn sahur, dpt mkn kurma and minum pon dh cukup. kire sahur gak la tuh. niat sahur jgn lupa

3. Pengambilan Makanan : Kurma - sgt2 disyorkan, tak perlulah aku bgtau ape kelebihan, kebaikan kurma. Consume lah secukupnye. Kalu nak lebih flavor buatlah Ice Blended Kurma. Bahan2 & Cara membuatnye: Blend kurma, oat, soya/fresh milk with ice. Sumpah sedap hahaha. Alhamdulillah dulu mmg buat tiap ari production susu maintain. Jadik rajin2lah google and print list makanan yg boleh mengalakkn production susu.

4. Berbuka - berbukalah dgn buah, makanan berat, minum air secukupnye etc. Jangan lah buka dgn air 20liter patu terus tak makan. Ape kes, tahukah anda ape yg kite makan, baby pon dapat merasa kesannye? Jadik tuka2 lah menu ari nih mkn durian esok makan lemang, baru lah tak bosan baby tuh haha

5. Maintain Pumping - bagi mommies yg kena express susu, kekalkan masa dan corak pump seperti biasa. Tak payah banyakkn masa mngepam, tak perlu kurangkan juga. Kalu susu tu cam sikit aje kuar buat bodo aje, pam mcm bese xpayah nk cuak atau gementar, kalu seram gak kontek2 lah mana2 lactation & support group. Pasti mereka senyum lebar nak membantu

6. Suppliment - okeh ini mmg berkesan kat aku, jadik aku amalkan. pilihan sendiri ye kalu mau ikut. Suppliment yg aku suka amik dulu ialah fenugreek beli kt GNC, jgn bimbang aku xdpt komisyen pon. Kendian aku juga suka beli kt klinik, maxalon xsilap aku napa pilnye. ekceli pil tuh utk pening angin etc tp dokter ckp bleh tambah susu, sgt sesuai kt aku yg suka byk angin dlm badan. Tapi kena tnya dokter balik lah, takut2 lah aku salah info.. err iye ke Dr. Shahrule?

7. EBM collection - ewah ayat. okeh bagi yg express susu, utk persedian mental fizikal, perlu juga aku rasa persediaan simpanan susu untuk masa kecemasan hehe. Jadik a month or 2 before bulan puasa ape kata cuba simpan EBM byk2. Jadik xdek leh stress sgt, dh la letih pose, kurang susu plak tuh, bleh mendatangkn marah okeh hehe

8. Positive Thinking - lebih kurang la dgn set minda tadik tp ini lebih kepada berfikiran postip sentiasa, lebih2 lagik bulan Ramadhan, lebih2 kan lah amalan tuh, doa byk2 mintak rezeki susu pada Allah. Perlu ke diingatkan pahala menyusu itu? jadik jgn cpt give up

9. Hindarkan anasir2 - hindarkan org2 yg kuarkan ayat spt ini 'ko mnyusu tak payah puasa' kerna kalu tak pose kena gak ganti, baik la ko pose pada bulan Ramdhan melimpah ruah pahala nanti. 'ko pose ade ke susu, mesti takde, susu ko tak berkhasiat, susu ko basi..' etc ayat mitos yg mmg aku pantang nk dgr. Paling pantang ayat 'ko campur lah formula' Sekiranya anda terjumpa anasir spt ini, hindarkan lah diri dgn segera, berikan aje senyuman sbb kang kalu nk maki blk xpasal2 kurang pahala pose

10. Rehat secukupnye - baca betol2, rehat secukupnye, jgn nk rehat melampau smpai tido tak bangun2 mmg hampeh la ko cam gitu, saja nk amik kesempatan

11. Pektis puasa/ganti puasa selepas pantang/confinement - okeh ini yg aku pektiskan sekarang. Kebetulan ahkak kena ganti pose 28hari jadik tanpa pikir panjang lepas pantang terus la ganti tp sekadar yg mampu lah, tak le berterusan. ropenye hikmah disebalik adalah, production susu maintain sbb Alhamdulillah susu mmg byk, jadik walaupon xbape larat okeh aku tipu mmg aku xlarat pon nk pose sbb haus and lapo tp susu tidak berkurangan. jadik bagi mommies yg lepas pantang buleh la cuba kalu badan sihat ye.

12. Ini pulak kelebihan bagi anak yg dh start makan, time Sami dulu, first time puasa dia dh nk masuk 6bln, jadik Pengenalan kepada makanan sgt lah penting kerana bila baby dh mkn, dpt lah diselang seli dgn susu, lega rasenye haha tp applies to baby yg dh 6 bln ye (for exclusive bf)

Akhir kata, berniat lah untuk berpuasa, menyusu kan anak sepanjang bulan Ramadhan dan ingatlah juga Islam agama yg mudah, jika tak larat setelah berusaha, berbuka lah. Sebelum bulan puasa tahun dpn gantilah balik, jgn nk buat2 bodoh plak. Jangan nk gunakan ayat aku nih teket utk tak berpose plak. Bagi aku 'formula milk is not an option' TAPI kepada mommies, u know who u are, kalau dapat menyusu sepanjang Ramadhan Alhamdulillah, kalau tak dpt nobody judging u. smart plan for coming Ramadhan and berserah to Allah. Ewah spiking pulak ahkak.

Akhir kata kedua, ini cara & pengalaman aku sendiri. sapa ade komen/pendapat/teguran sila SHARE. Lebar pelukan aku beri. Breastfeeding is personal to me. Agak sensitip. Sila gunakan ayat pujian kalu nk tegur seperti 'ko mmg cantek tapi aku tak setuju dgn...' haa kalu ayat gitu diterima hahahhahahha Tapi jika nak gatal2 beri kutukan, kata2 negatip aku juga tak segan silu nk maki ko balik. Sekian hahahaha

BF Info

Info yg aku terbaca otw blk sini

 

Banyak keperluan utk new baby tak ready lagik esp on BF needs. Berapa byk fact yg positif kuar psl BF aku anggap sebagai bonus aje sbb bagi aku kalu dh Susu Ibu kurniaan Allah, ko nk sangkal cemana lagik dia punye kebaikan? Syukur sgt2 Allah bagi peluang kat aku & Sami utk menyusu 3thn setgh nih. Semoga kali nih Allah kurniakan aku susu yg melimpah ruah lagik. Aminnn

p/s - mentally dh ready and diharap aku tak saiko dan sedepress dulu hahahhaha

SGM4

After a year (iye dh setahun ok) i finally managed to go to SGM4 and my first time la this year. Papi malas to teman and i have to go alone as SAMI PON TANAK TEMAN!! and that really makes me sad as i dont really remember the way and to make it worst my phone has been barred (adoii kes malas nk pi bayo bill) and to add the drama i woke fashionably late! tu pon Sami yg kejut sbb dia nk pee... aisehhh

I need to go! i wanted to go! i miss the SGM eventho i knew SGM never miss me haha. I wanted to meet Fiza, Thu, Tha & Ajui as i promised Ajui last year that i will make her Bolognese Sandwish if she got pregnant again and mmg la makcik tu tuntut kann haha.. and Thu also reminded me siap2 that she will bring Mama best kuah durian huh! Sapa can resist kuah durian Mama.. cannot2.. i need to join them (mcm cilakak kan totally forgot whats SGM are for kahkahkahkahkah)

'mami pegi la.. Sami nk tgk Ultraman.. Sami dgn Papi jek...' ignore sami as i'm asking him thousand times to teman me

'babai mami... ' just to put more garam to my luka grrr

Btw Papi dgn senang hati gave me his phone with garmin ready to show me the way to Tasik Cempaka Bangi, cess pandai Papi ngelat. Arrived 15mins late (laju kan bwk kete hehe) i joined the 2nd group as i saw gossip girls sume kt situ and ignoring the discussion as we kept gossiping (haha sungguh kureng). This time we only have 2 groups but i can see new faces and around 30 peps coming (boleh tahan la kan) and the para suami yg berapa kerat tu pon sungguh bagus menjoin siap share good facts, advices, opnion, SUPPORT and siap do the presentation lagik! terbaekkk

 as usual

'ely ko present' kata suara2 sumbang asked me to wrap the meeting

'uish ape hal asik aku.. mana leh aku baru smpai xtau topic pon.. suh para suami' i lied and yes they love asking me coz i looked kepoh and mmg kepoh haha

and i got lucky this time as ade para suami yg volunteer nak present

'eh Ely, napa ko tak present' masihh suara2 sumpang bertanya dgn perasaan dengki aku rasa

'takpe.. takpe.. kite backup' i replied ala ucop wilcha unintentionally

'mcm bese aje aku dgr ayat tuh! hahahhaa we laughed tanpa segan silu kat para suami. ntah suami sapa aku xtau

Then our fav part of the SGM.. Makan Time!.. ngeee besh besh.. bila SGM lagik??

camwhoring is a must!

with Tha, congrats coz she delivered a healthy baby boy the next day!

qahirah visiting heaven!

Ajui. i made her toaster bolognese.

also discussing on the cloth pad haha..
'hoi jgn la letak situ .. malu la.. ' 
'takde2 aku xjual.. aku tunjuk aje.. ' 
'tak tu cubaan, aku baru try buat.. '
hahaha penat owner explains what the cloth pad all about and trying so hard to cover them from para suami.. hehe

Reward

Last 28th Oct, Sami's turned 2y8m. It's mean we have gone thru a wonderful breastfeeding journey for that long! there's no one day pon he didnt susu. so i'm going to reward myself with i dont know yet. I want new cloth. Ok ok aku tokey baju. to be frank, i'm not baju kurung or blouse person. i'm more to tshirt and body hugging pfftt lupakan baju kecik. itu sume zaman 5 thn lepas.

As i'm wearing t almost everyday and can say as my daily uniform, i want new T!! silap. I want new Tees! not one not two but i want more than 5 at least! haha. gila overst! ok tu satu.. satu lagik i want free voucher of spa! i'm dying, i really need at least 5 spa sessions haha. bahbi aje.

Need a favor,

Please. Please dont say 'ha tak malu' 'hoii tak benti lagik?' 'hah dh bape tahun?' 'haa susu badan lagik?' etc yada yada please ya. i'm not only dont appreciate it but i hate it! everytime i heard that believed me i curse u and ur family tau!. (err exxagerate aje sbb tak kan lah aku nk sumpah kaum keluarga aku hahahhaa) and why i didnt say anything? coz i'm just being polite to you. if u r my fren, u should just listen to my bragness story (hehe takmo ngaku) about my susu journey as maybe u didnt notice, i also listen to yours cuma korgnye topik berlainan and tak perasan aje! haha

Please please please. i love and proud being a full bf mom. u should too. why i'm so loud about it? (ye la sikit2.. dia dh 2tahun lebeh masih susu badan - elehhh xabis2 ayat bangga aku. bukan belagak ok. aku bangga) the reason i'm so proud coz that's a very good thing to do! everybody dok sebok say : oh dosa 24 hours (cth bila publish gambo kt public) but why they didnt credit : oh good, pahala 24 hours?  

And please. please dont say 'susu ko byk boleh la.. ' oh please very the lame excuses. i didnt blog about my struggling and depression era -- pasai tu la aku sungguh vangga the boom! haha. no one judging you but berusaha lah ok :D

For those who dah and still bf, congrats and good luck

For those yg tak sempat, tak dapat and kurang berjaya, boleh cuba lagik.. byk info diluar sana and byk yg sudi membantu. percayalah there's no bad thing about breastfeeding. where do u think i got my lansing figure? (perahsan lagik - sambil tarik napas cuba sembunyikkan love handle)


Ok wish us for hepi breastfeeding ya as there's no show any tanda to berhenti.

Loving it!!

Thank you Allah! Syukur Alhamdulillah.

ade bende yg dia tak dapat la nihh

Susu

Susu time

--- letdown

Sami stop

eh?

'mami, shedapp' sambil pandang kat aku

huwaaa (nangis dlm hati)

Usu

Sami bleh pronounce susu tapi dia tetiba aje nk manja.. dia sebut Usu.. jika menjerit jadik 'mamiiii nakkk OOOOOOOOOOOosuuuuuu'

Sekarang mmg sami dh tiada bekalan susu. Aku tak pam lagik. Juga aku xkasik formula. Bukan ape. Membazir. Sami xsuka minum susu dalam botol. Sekiranya diberi cawan sami akan tumpahkan sbb dia xfancy susu lain. Jadik sami selalu la minum jus. Jus ape2 la tp aku dh check kat nurseri. Dorg mmg ade oren ngan grape jus.

Jadik bila blk umah sami akan terus nak susu dgn kata lain dia dh tau dh rutin susu dia hanya mlm pada hari mami bekerja. Yang lain sukati dia bila dia nak. Xtau ngapa seminggu dua nih sami selalu berhenti time tgh susu untuk..

'mami sedap' sambil buat puppy eyes sengih2 dan sambung balik susu. muka nikmat habis..

Tiap kali sami ckp gitu jantung aku terus jatuh berderai2.. bila dh abis susu dia akan ckp .. alhamdulillah and tengkiu.. kadang2 aku usik la ckp xyah susu dah.. sure dia marah.. 'Sami nak Usu!' sambil besarkn mata dia.. hehe..

Yang lucunye ptg semalam.. 'mamiii nak usu..., sini.. sini.. bummm' sami suh aku baring dpn tv.. patu dia jerit2 kesukaan sbb aku baring kat dia.. tetiba.. 'papi xboleh usu.. ini sami punye!' haha tetiba dia sound papi yg tgh baring kat sofa.. Ermm aku pelik gak sbb aku xpenah plak usik dia dgn offer susu kat papi.. besenye kalu dia main2 sambil susu aku cam ugut la ckp nk bagi susu kat sponge bob ke, mr. panda lah sume2 pillow toys dia lah.. Mungkin dia pon dh pandai nk bgtau barang kepunyaan dia sendiri.. hehehe

Adakah Anda Juga Begitu?

Entry : Untuk Ibu Menyusu

Ada satu soalan. Bukan. Bukan pertanyaan pasal susu byk ke kurang ke cukup ke. anak umur berapa. sampai bila mau mnyusu atau cemana nk hentikan penyusuan.

Soalannye: Adakah anda para ibu yang menyusu merasa resah, gelisah, tidak tenteram, susah hati, stress, depress, hilang selera makan (atau bertambah kuat makan), sedih, bengang, marah dan TAKUT bila anak anda tidak mahu menyusu? Walaupon jarak penyusuan itu hanyalah 2-3jam.

Kerana saya begitu.

Keadaan ini berlaku bila nak direct feeding sahaja. Sesi mengepam, takde letdown ke ape jadah tolak tepi (tu lagikk la malas nak pikir)

Iye. Aku susah hati. Especially masuk tahun 2009. Aku notice dari January sampai la semalam aku asik la susah hati. Asal Sami lama sket tak susu aku mula la cam org hilang anak. Tapi sejak semalam, officially stok susu Sami habis (kire skang kais pagi makan pagi lah), amazingly aku dh ok -- sikit aje ok nye. Kalu kat umah Sami tak susu dlm masa 3 jam pon aku boleh buat2 selamba aje.

Iye. Selama ke nih mmg la Sami susu gap lama. tapi perasaan meroyan aku tu aku pendam. diam diam. Bila Sami dah meningkat umur aku makin takut. Takut kalu satu hari nanti dia dh xmahu mnyusu ape perlu aku lakukan? suh papi hisap plak? cilaka sungguh statement

Iye. Bukan persoalan 'macam mana nk cerai susu? macam mana nk elak anak susu kite lagik'. Persoalannye
'macam mana nk pujuk hati aku kalu Sami dah tak nak mnyusu?; Anak ok emak nye plak yg lebeh. Bukan risau anaknye, risau emaknye plak yg nangis waduh!

Iye. Walaupon aku dh boleh menerima, dh kurang depress, dh xberapa stress, dah agak gembira. Aku masih berdebar2.

Iye. Walaupon aku penat kalu sami mnyusu ibarat minah kilang bergayut kat telepon berjam2, ye la bercinta ngan mamat jual burger, nak dating susah nk jumpak, kena la gayut lama2 (background zaman 90an), aku tetap nak dia bergayut kat aku.

Macam mana ye nak hilang kan perasaan ini 100%?? Skang baru hilang 60% kot.

Walaupon hari itu belum datang. Tapi aku nye persediaan takut tu dh dekat setahun. Depress sepanjang tahun. Patutnye sepanjang tahun aku buat persediaan menghadap hari kiamat. Ini bersiap sedia takut xkena tempat. Bangang.

Atau

Adekah aku nye mild post partum blues tu masih ade?

Anda tidak paham?

Aku pon tak paham.

Aku drama?

Memang lah. Aku kan drama queen, seksi pulak tu.

Agak2 siapa yg perlu aku jumpa ek? pakar psikitiari? kaunselor laktasi? buffet line kat shangrila? tingkat 5 pavillion? (panjang list nih malas nk type)

La La La La La La

Cost

Jom kite kire bape kos untuk susu (susu sahaja ok) dan berapa jumlah telah jimat..

umur sami: setahun 2 bln
cost estimate utk formula milk: rm200/mth
total cost: rm200 x 14mths = rm2800

umur sami: setahun 2 bln
cost utk breastpump: spectra3 complete mlo set rm570 + used avent manual rm150 =
cost utk storage: mlo rm53 (12btls) rm35 (6btls)
total cost: rm720 + rm88 = rm808

total saving: rm2800 - rm808 = rm1992

huh banyak tu. pasal tu la mami suka suki beli barang sami tiap bln huhuhuhu. paling penting papi xpening kepala tiap bln nk kuar duit beli susu..

syukur alhamdulillah

Tak Alert

Ikea

Ari nih kitorg pegi Ikea. Main point nye nak carik hadiah untuk Heru & Patra. Mmg xdek idea langsung. Reason nak beli kat Ikea sbb kt Bandung xdek Ikea. Tu je. Dah pening2 kitorg belikan dorg frame. Sama aje dedua. Hehehehe lega

Hotdog

Patu cam bese aku tingin la hotdog ikea tapi cam bese gak ramainye la org beratur. Papi mmg malas la tgk line tu ajak g 1901 aje. Petama lagik sedap, kedua dia tensen sbb bila dh beli & bayar barang ikea dh xbg org naik atas dgn barang yg dibeli tadik. Papi nak mkn meatballs xdpt la..

Italian Rice? Risotto

Sempat la singgah cold storage kat ikano, utk kali ke 5 kitorg kecewa sbb dah pg C4 wangsamaju, Giant bukit antarabangsa, Tesco ampang, Cold Storage great eastern & ikano plak xjumpak la ape yg kite panggil italian rice. aku la panggil gitu sbb aku nak sgt masak risotto sdr.. cis.. marahnye..

1901 - great

Then kitorg g mkn 1901 kt the curve. nih pon mendatangkn bengkek gak sbb kata set ade hotdog, air oren ngan mashie. aku bukan nak sgt mashie tu tapi nk suap kt sami. Alih2 mashie xdek patu dorg tolak rm2. patu siap regular xdek ade great aje.. tambah rm2 disitu.

Tesco - Mutiara Damansara

Haaaa... bila dh xjumpak rice tu kitorg g tesco dgn niat nak beli bahan nk masak tomyam and riki2 kalu ade beras kt situ.. xdek gak tapi dpt la beli barang masaknye kecuali mushroom.. ade aje xkena.. patu sampai la sami nk susu siap tunjuk2 breast aku nih..

'i g nursing room, xtau kt mana nak carik jap' aku bgtau papi sbb dia nk bayo dah

'i pon xtau.. xdek sign.. nnti u kol' jawab papi

mmg kalu ikutkn xdek sign baby room langsung tapi aku tuju gak kt toilet mana tau dlm toilet tu ade space ke ape or kt luar2 tu ade tmpt duduk ke. tiada. patu ramai la plak pakcik2 duduk kt situ.. aku pon dgn perasaan nak hangin patah balik pg kat cashier counter

'dik.. ade baby room tak kat sini?' tanya aku kat adik cashier tu..

'ha? ape dia kak?' tanya adik tu smbil kerut muka

'baby room, ade tak?' aku xckp nursing room sbb slalu ramai yg xdek anak xtau.. patu nak ckp changing room pon kang lagik panjang pertanyaan

'xtau la kak, saya tak tau' jawab adik tuh

'ha? xtau kat tesco nih ade baby room ke tak?' tanya aku smbil memberi pandangan tajam. nada sore dh naik nih.. tapi aku terus blah sbb malas nk bazir masa. BODOH! keje kat tesco tapi xtau ade baby room ke tak. ke dia xtau baby room tu ape?

aku terus jln selang 2 kaunter tnya lagik kat adik pakai tudung plak

'dik ade baby room tak kat sini?' mintak2 dia paham la kan..

'ha? ape tu?' skalik dia toleh kt aku bukan adik nih.. akak yg xbape cun

'baby room' aku ckp dgn jelas

'ape tu xpaham' kerut minah nih smbil buat muka

'bilik bayi, bilik baby.. nak bagi susu.. tuka diaper.. bilik baby.. ade?' aku dh keras sket la sore totally bangang nih..

'manade' dgn attitude capital A siap buat muka, muka tu sebijik cam sial, siap nada ckp tu mcm aku nih tau tapi buat2 xtau patu sebok2 tanya dia..

bahbi arr ko jawab mcm nih..

tesco mutiara damansara xdek baby room/changing room/nursing room xpe lagik tapi ko jawab dgn muka mencebik, cara ckp mcm aku nih bukan pelanggan mmg bahbi la ko kan.

Nih la yg dinamakan TAK ALERT.

BODOH NYE TESCO MUTIARA DAMANSARA NIH.


BAHBI


BODOH


BAHBI

end up aku susu sami kat kusi yg tesco dgn baik atinye letak kt luar2 cashier counter tu.. (tu blum lagik tgh susu ade minah arab nih dtg mintak aku ketepi nak duduk situ, tu lagik satu bahbi)

so sesapa nak ke area sana. hanya The Curve, Ikea & Ikano aje ye ade baby room nih. Bangunan ape sblh the curve tu? tu pon xdek. jgn la nk susah2 carik. tu aku belum rate kan tuh baby room kt tiga2 tempat nih..

mmg aku nak buat list


note: bagaimana pon itu bukan la pengalaman paling buruk psl baby room nih. ade lagik teruk jadik kat aku tapi esok2 la bila aku senang aku cite..

eeeiiiii

Mami Geram La Macam Nih..

Sami nih mmg tau. Mami tau la sami xsuka susu dalam botol. Everyday mami doa, mami pesan minum susu byk sikit. Mmg la mami lega sbb skang sami kuat mkn kat nursery. Ye la kawan ramai. Tapi mami xsuka bila teacher ckp sami suka amik botol susu baby lain (yg isinye air kosong). Betol ke? Makesure sami xminum susu baby lain tau. Susu lain tu susu lembu dgn kata hebatnye susu formula. Mami taknak perlekehkn susu formula sbb mami pon minum susu tu gak masa kecik dulu. Tapi kalu sami teringin mami kasik la bile sami dah benti minum susu mami.

Dr. Kumari ckp berat normal baby setahun, 3 kali ganda berat masa lahir, jadik sami umur setahun patutnye berat 9.36kg tapi sami punye berat cuma 8.5kg. Dr. Kumari ckp ok xdek ape problem, sami sihat je tapi mami risau gak la sbb sami xkuat susu masa kat nurseri. Mami pam susu mcm nak mati. Mami stress kalu pam xbanyak. Mami browse internet everday carik info, carik support utk exclusive breastfeeding nih tapi sami mcm main2 aje kalu minum susu dalam botol. Iye, mami tak marah. Mami xkesah bangun malam2 susukan sami every 2hrs kadang every 1 hr tapi kat nurseri byk la skit susunye.

Minggu nih everyday sami abiskan sebotol aje sehari. sebotol botol mlo tu = 5oz. hamboii the rest of the day? mkn & minum air kosong ke? Mami lega bila blk jumpa mami sami susu xberenti TAPI kena arinih bile mami bekalkn 2 btl susu by kul 1tghari dah abis?? Kebetulan mami xsempat nk blk anta susu jadik sami kena la tunggu smpai kul 5. Memang tau! Mami geram la mcm nih. Nanti mami jumpa sami siap! Mami kiss2 sami!!!

Public Breastfeeding? Go for KampungStyle

When i decided to be a very hot, sexy, proud, fully breastfeed mommy, i, trial and error how to breastfeed (bf) sami in public. I tried:

1. carry pump and bottle end up to be a very bodoh idea as i need to express and pujuk sami at the same time (ye la xkuasa mamat tu nk sap susu dlm botol bile boobies mami lagik fresh & sedap) tu blum lagik having problems carry expressed milk siap ngan ice cube. cost: emosi kacau, merosakkan suasana ceria and menjejaskn hubungan ngan papi sbb muka masam bila tak dapat handle sami. muka aku la masam. papi xpenah masam muka kat aku. sori papi. ampun papi. jgn la papi kecik ati. jauh kang syurga aku

2. buy a nursing cover. yes, usefull senang & sgt sesuai TAPI bila sami semakin byk idea, dia dh start wrestle ngan cover tuh. duhhh jadik havoc la plakkkk (actually i only managed using it sekalik aje) hahahaha bese la mami mmg over suka buang duit. maybe i can donate the cover. tips: guna cover since pas pantang so baby dh get use to it. cost: rm59 xsilap xbape ingat beli kat mlo

3. hanya pegi ke tmpt yg ade nursing room. haaaaa!!!!! jgn la harap sume soping mall kt mesia nih babyfrendli ye. i can list and rate all the nursing room in KL. huh bleh gak tu. next entry. end up mmg agak bangang coz if u were at the south and the nursing room kat north hamboi larat ke nak usung anak kulu kilir? cost: mentally tensen

4. change how i used to wear. ekceli xjauh sgt la style aku dari dulu. dulu aku kuar pakai sleeveless aje. skang pakai baju diluar sleeveless hahhahahaha nampak sgt aku semulajadik seksi xsedar diri. pakai sleeveless pelbagai kaler from mng rm29 (brand sukati tapi mng tsgt selesa mng tu ok), pakai tshirt ikut size badan (aku dulu kalu buleh size xxxs.. skang i can tolerate with m). why? becoz i dont wear tudung. u can easily selak ur shirt without showing ur tayar lori tummy. also pakai nursing bra. my choice either modernmum rm88 (yes, bapak mahal anggap aje la bonus sbb xyah beli susu) (but i found one comfort brand kt kedai apetah kat ioi puchong. i bought the bra 2 for only rm69 xsilap. selesa and murah). cost: hepi and terasa hebat

5. Pektis. Pektis. Pektis. becoz we love to travel, love to go out. i have to practise to susu sami in public. Malu? xpenah terlintas. Bangga? yes sampai nak riak pon ade tapi xmo riak kang Allah marah. Tips to pektis, duduk ditempat selesa and xbape ramai org. if at restaurant just pick seat tepi dinding or secluded sket. or else ask ur hubby to cover for u. ape? xnak cover? ko nak kuar duit bli susu? baik ko cover.. hehehe xdek.. gurau aje ayat bahasa tu hehehehe

This pics taken when we were in Bukit Bendera, Penang last weekend. We are so tired and sami so sleepy. I just pic a seat and hold him with kasih sayang and here you go. He susu and rested in my arms like he's in heaven. He even susu until sleep. Ada org tengok? i dunno. i dont give a damn pon. Nak tgk sukati. nak tegur ha marilah kalu berani.. hehehehhe

6. oh yeah.. after u buang malu jauh2 and feelproud while doing it. be ready with ur fav photographer. tengkiu auntie biqque!

GOOD LUCK!

Breastfeeding Story: Cukup ke Susu?

Cukup ke susu?

Sami wellknown as reverse cycle punye budak. xsuka botol. no pacifier rules. Dedicated thumb sucker. Sami weight 8.5kg on his 1yr besday. His paed said the ideal weight is 3times from his birth weight ie 9.36kg but as he's so sihat and active and manja and manja and manja. he's ok.

For me sami boy is slim and slender. nk jadik model ke ape? i'm quit worried as sometimes he only finish up to 5oz and normally upto 10oz from 9am-6pm. he's like dracula waktu mlm but since he's taking solid food his paed said ok. no problem. dont worry eventho i noticed he pass less urine last mth (tapi asik berak aje pulak). skang mamypoko size m 66pcs bleh tahan dlm 3 weeks gitu aje. huyuh. bukan psl kencing pasal kuat berak. hahahhaha

Currently i've got around 20btls of susu. cukup ke stok tu?

Breastfeeding Story: Hand Expression

Skills of hand-expression

Alhamdulillah my nipps healed TAPI as we sent Sami to nursery on Wednesday, i need to use the pump to express and as i thought, the left nipp mengelupas balik eeeiii geram. Now i know what cause it. My what i called for the past year - new besfren - avent manual pump. errr actually not the real cause but it makes worse so i need alternative.

Tadaaa the idea is to express using my kuar2 urat hand. (sambil looking at my hands) duhhh they must hates me. i need lotion. Sorry tangan, dah lama xsapu lotion.

Camne? I do not know how. Need to learn. Quickly.

6 EASY (not sure easy or not, wait until i try) STEPS TO EXPRESS MILK FROM YOUR BREASTS BY HAND:

1. Position your hand on your breast, with the thumb above and fingers underneath, about an inch to an inch-and-a-half behind the nipple. If your breast were a clock, your thumb would be at 12 o'clock and your fingers at 6 o'clock. Don't cup your breast in your hand. Instead, your thumb and fingers should be directly across the nipple from each other.
2. Press your thumb and fingers directly back into the breast tissue, towards the wall of your chest. Don't move them further apart. Just press straight back into the breast.
3. Roll your fingers and thumb forward to squeeze milk out of the milk sinuses, which are located under the areola behind the nipple. Don't slide the thumb or fingers along the skin--this will quickly make you sore.
4. Repeat this sequence--position, press, roll--until the milk flow ceases. Then move your hand so that the thumb and fingers are positioned at 11 and 5 o'clock and do it again. Use both hands to work your way around one breast, then switch to the other side until you have emptied all of the milk sinuses. As soon as you see milk squirting from your nipple, you know you are compressing the underlying milk sinuses. (This position is also where baby's gums should be during efficient latch-on.)
5. The trick to hand expression is discovering where to position your fingers. Experiment until you find the right spot. Having someone show you how is very helpful, too.
6. Combining hand-expression with breast massage can be a very effective way to stimulate the milk-ejection reflex. Massage first, then express. Massage again, and repeat the hand- expressing routine.

OK. Macam senang TAPI i know its hard. Harder than u think. Know why? Even if u r using a very hi-tech pump (u gonna amazed how breastpump can be so hi-tech and expensive) u not gonna get good result as all these need concentration and skill. SAIKO2
Avoid These Motions

• Do not squeeze the breast, as this can cause bruising.
• Sliding hands over the breast may cause painful skin burns.
• Avoid pulling the nipple which may result in tissue damage. (hahahaha nih breastfeeding bukan nipplefeeding)

Dah pektis sikit2. Tomorrow nk start la .. huishh seram gak first time nih.
"Hand expression should not hurt! If it does, you may be pressing too hard"
"We often turn to the most technologically advanced items, when simpler methods would work just as well, or even better in many cases"

Breastfeeding Story: Crack Nipple

I met Sonia the other day at Harith's besday party and she said 'tak sangka skin breastfeed sami, xsangka la skin jadi 'mami' mcm nih. Sonia respek..'

Sonia is Amir's gf. She's cun, soft spoken, baik ati and mcm asik kena buli aje ngan amir. hehehehe. And i'm still remembered when she bising at me at Deb & Nan's wedding when i said i do not want children. She bebel 'skin, xbuleh ckp mcm tu. anak2 la yg akan sambung keturunan kite. skin patut consider utk dpt baby and so on.. ' huyuh terus i replied 'ok. skin janji skin akan beranak' hahahahaha xlarat nk dgr bebelan Sonia and infact if we got baby girl we are going to call her Sonia.. sempena makcik Sonia yg baik ati tu hehehehe.

And, after we attended the antenal class i was so determined to breastfeed BUT felt so foolish (till now) coz i didnt get full info on BF. So, i was not aware and not prepared for the side effect for not doing the right way. My breast was engorged and my nip crack like hell. Thanks to Papi for giving me full support and feed me with info, suggestion, solutions, time & money spending and we managed to get thru it.

BUT as i became expert. i MIGHT be over confident and on last October i suffered the same. CRACK. wat the hell. Tak lama around 2 days aje tapi sakit okkk. Then for the past 3 weeks i noticed that my both nipp pink sket. Aiseh.. nak kena lagik ke?

What are they?

Breastfeeding may make your nipples sore. But cracked and bleeding nipples are not a normal side effect of breastfeeding. Nursing isn't meant to be painful — in fact, pain is a warning sign that you have a problem that needs correcting.

I dont think i've done any wrong.

What causes the condition?

The main cause of cracked or bleeding nipples is improper positioning of the baby at the breast. This also causes severe nipple pain. Correcting your nursing technique can substantially soothe or cure cracked nipples. Sometimes just the slightest correction of positioning will make a world of difference.

If your baby has thrush, you may get cracked nipples and shooting pains in the breast during or after a feeding. Thrush is a yeast infection of the mouth that results when yeast naturally present in the body grows and spreads out of control.

Your nipples could also crack or bleed because of severe dry skin, or if you have eczema. You can get an eczema-like condition on the nipples or breasts as a result of very dry air, laundry detergent residue, ointment or lotion applied to the breast, bath soap or antibacterial cleanser, powder, hair spray, deodorant, perfume, or cologne.

Using a breast pump wrong can also hurt your nipples, and make them crack or bleed. Be especially careful when you pump, as certain machines and handling your breasts too roughly can injure delicate breast tissue, breaking the capillaries. Excessive suction from a breast pump has caused hemorrhages under the skin in some women.

Ok. Kadang mmg sami tergigit sbb dia dh tertido. He never bite me on purpose. Good boy but i have to agree with the use of breastpump coz sometimes my nipp feels a bit sore after using it.

And semalam my nipp start crack ala sakit menci.. eeii mintak2 arr cpt baik.. amin amin

What should I do?

If your nipples bleed or crack, try the following:

• Check your baby's positioning. A poor latch-on technique is the most common reason for this condition. Your baby should face your nipple, tummy to tummy with you. Your baby needs to open wide to take in a good mouthful of both the nipple and the areola. The best latch-on position is off-centered, with more of the areola below the nipple in your baby's mouth. Line up his nose with your nipple so that his bottom gum is far away from the base of your nipple when he opens. Your nipple should be far back in your baby's mouth.• Change positions at every feeding. This focuses the pressure of the baby's gums on a different area of the breast each time.

• Nurse more frequently, but for shorter periods. Remember, the longer you go between feedings, the hungrier your baby will be — and the harder he will nurse.

• Rub a little breast milk on your nipples after each feeding and let it air dry. The milk actually helps heal them.

• Don't use soap, alcohol, lotions, or perfumes on the nipples. Bathing with clear water is all it takes to keep your breasts and nipples clean.

• Take painkillers. If the pain is severe, you can take a mild painkiller (acetaminophen or ibuprofen) about 30 minutes before nursing.

• For deep, painful cracks, try medical-grade modified lanolin (such as Lansinoh ) made specifically for breastfeeding mothers. Rub a small amount of the ointment on your nipples. This treatment, called "moist wound healing," relieves pain and allows the wounds to heal much faster without forming a scab. It does not need to be washed off before feedings.If a crack or wound shows no sign of healing, check with your doctor or healthcare professional.

Will the condition affect my baby?

Babies are generally unfazed by cracked or otherwise injured nipples. Blood in the milk doesn't hurt them, and breastfeeding can continue. The main concern here is to correct the problem and allow the nipple to heal, so that nursing is once again a pleasurable experience for both you and the baby.

Can I still nurse?

Yes. Nothing in the world is more wonderful than breastfeeding your baby — but convincing a mother with cracked, bleeding nipples of this is near impossible. Getting help from a lactation consultant right away can make all the difference.

Duhh nothing can stop me from nursing. I totally enjoy BF. Not all mothers can BF their baby and i know i'm the lucky one. Peps keep telling me Sami so lucky even papi always say the same thing. Nah.. i'm the lucky one. Thank you Allah. Syukur Alhamdulillah.

Dilema Hot Mami

Eiiii sedihnye.. 2-3 days before we went to Krabi, i had this major problem. My boobies no longer in Cup D size and the letdown omg tooks ages to come. Sami got hi, eh silap, very hi fever in Krabi but luckily the susu still ada & cukup for him eventho boobs kempes sentiasa.

Doc gives me Pil Tambah Susu the other day. Err my mistake maybe coz i didnt take as per prescrip.. heh konon takut kena bengkak susu. And the susu on off until last nite. Frust betol when sami cried as no let down & we have to give him EBM.

- direct feeding when with sami check
- eat in time check
- kurma + soya check (ermmm sedepnye ice blended kurma.. nk buat la mlm nih)

I love the FACT that i lost weight because i breastfeed, i love to think that i got good figure by breastfeed. I love the thought that i dont need to worry to eat as i will lost callories everyday by breastfeed. I love the FACT that papi love me more when i breastfeed. I love to think that sami is a very fortunate boy. I'm a very lucky wife & proud hot mami.. oh I'm so obses to me Hot Mami. Hot Mami need big boobs. Pls susu dont go away..

Breastfeeding

Breastfeeding is more than a feeding. It is a form of nurturing, it is the act of love.

When I was pregnant with Sammy boy (mcm la aku pegnen byk kali). I've remind papi about the brand as well as the price of formula milk (dgn bangga siot). BUT when we attend the pre-natal class in the breastfeeding session; i almost cried and blessed (smbil mnyesal byk kali). Nasib baik we attend the Class. I feel so stupid like bimbo (sbb bimbo still cun) and bercita2 to breastfeed.

After so many mistake i make; i can say that it's now officially a successful breastfeeding routine as we enjoy & cherish the time we had together. (I miss sammy boy) AND this breastfeed also taught me to READ! READ! READ AS MANY AS U CAN!

I will try to paste any article i found after this. BUT i want to share this cute message i found in momslittleone website.

Dear Mommy,

Thank you for bringing me into this world. I am content and happy every time I hear your voice, feel your warmth, comfort and protection. Please let me stay with you all the time so that you can breastfeed me on demand. Please don't wait until I cry because I'll be a very fussy baby by then.
Your colostrum is all I need.

You can provide me warmth, security, food and drink. I do not need any pacifiers, bottles or water. There is no need for topping up or supplementing with formula milk. The more you breast-feed me, the more milk you will have, mommy.

Please be patient with me as I learn how to feed. I will try to be patient too (I know I can be a pain sometimes). I'm sorry for stressing you out! I really don't mean it. It may take a while for breastfeeding to get established. It will give me the best start in this big wide world! If you find feeding uncomfortable or challenging, please ask the nurse or lactation counselor for help to get me latched on properly. Please do not watch the clock to see whether it is time for my next feed or to see how long I feed.

As you continue to breastfeed, I will get protection against infections, heart disease, diabetes, eczema and asthma. It will help my jaw and brain develop. I really want to grow up to be strong, intelligent and healthy.

I want you to know that I appreciate all that you have done. Your breast milk is always the BEST milk for me. I love your precious "golden drops"! But most of all, I LOVE YOU, mommy!
Hugs and kisses,

Your Breastfed Baby
