Kenapa baby food kena ada gula?

Assalamualaikum

Tadi pergi Aeon Big Batu Pahat.

EH, kenapa tetiba dekat batu pahat?

Sebab esok kawan kite and husband nikah. So kami pun datang all the way from kajang to celebrate the bride and groom :)

Since baby sofia dah start her solid food journey for about 1 month +, memang priority kena pastikan perut anak full before we do anything.

Kami bergerak dalam tengahari, so lunch dekat Melaka and dinner dekat BP area memang bawak brown rice yang dah siap masak siap siap. Tinggal kena panaskan je waktu nak makan. So i thought for tomorrow nak beli ready to eat food since hotel yang kitorang duduk takda peti ais to keep the brown rice porridge. nak masak apatah lagi kan, dapur pun takde.

-- eh panjang betul explaination before masuk part aeon kan kehkeh :p

okay.

Sebenarnya pergi aeon big ni nak cari food for our daughter la.  Pi baby food section, bila go through all the ingredients for sure ada sugar ok. Even for a well-known brand. Takda langsung yang without sugar. This situation makes me feel upset. Like betul betul punya kecewa. Dah la sofia sejenis pemakan orangnya.. kalau meal time sampai, memang shes eager to eat sampai sanggup capai sudu dekat tangan kite. So mesti boleh bayangkan kan perasaan kecewa kite? huhu. Jaya grocer for sure takda dekat sini, sebab tu je tempat yang banyak organic foods for baby yang kite tau. Dok fikir punya fikir kite memang tak ready nak introduce sugar or any seasoning to my daughter. YET. Not this time. After sofia setahun inshaAllah.

So, we just buy fruits for her.

Since fruits tu sebenarnya kite bagi for snack je sometimes not as main dish sepanjang sofia dah masuk 7 bulan ni.. Lets just hope that she wont be cranky sebab lapar. 

At least until kitorang sampai kajang.

Nervous ade. Sedih pun ada sebab takut anak lapar. huhu. Memang macamni kan perasaan dah jadi ibu? 😂

Ikhlas dari seorang ibu emo.
Sebab tak sempat siapkan rolled oats untuk bawak datang BP.

Tips: cara nak kurangkan selsema dan batuk baby

Assalamualaikum 

Sekarang ni kejap panas kejap hujan

Cuaca tak menentu kan? 

My baby pun kena attack selsema dengan batuk dah. Still bearable, and less worry sikit sebab kemain aktif tau anak ibu ni walaupun tak berapa sihat. Her body temperature maintain and does not spike as well. Jadinya agak lega di situ. Shes not cranky even batuk tu dengar bunyi kahak. Kite yang dengar ni rasa kesian. Batuk takdela all day long. Kadang kadang, tapi bila batuk tu quite lama sampai merah merah muka. Lepas da habis batuk tu terus sengih. Hailaaaa anak ibu.. selsema pun sampai meleleh ayaq hidung. Makan pun tak berapa nak excited macam selalu. Since shes not feeling well, i did not force her to finish her food. As long as she eat, i am more than happy :) 

Banyak remedies kite try untuk soothes my daughter. Dalam masa yang sama, untuk kasi anak rasa selesa dan tak lemas. Even kite yang dah besar pun tak selesa bila kena batuk dan selsema, baby apatah lagi kan? So ni ada beberapa cara kite gunakan bila baby batuk dan selsema. 

1. Mandi wap

Ultimate saviour for my baby. Kite selalu bukak shower sampai bathroom penuh wap then masuk together with baby. Adela dalam +- 10 mins? Baby for sure akan merengek but keraskan hati sikit ok? (Tapi kalau baby nangis teruk sangat tu, bawakla baby keluar shower ya) After a while inshaAllah baby akan ok. Macam Aleesa kalau dia nangis kite ajak sembang lepastu Aleesa akan pandang kite macam faham je ape ibu dia sembang :p 

2. Sterimar (shopee link: https://shp.ee/tdq7q5v) and nose suction 

Totally a life savior! Benda wajib-harus-kena-pastikan ada for your baby. Spray and sedut. But in case your baby ada runny nose, just suck the flu away. and baby will be happy ever after hehe. Nampak exaggerate kan? Tapi betul! Try first ok?

3. Century baby balm (shopee link: https://shp.ee/vgi65xv)

Balm baby yang bau strawberry. So sedap! Rasa nak makan. Aleesa pun suka bau. Kite akan rub dekat dada Aleesa everytime after habis mandi. Tak panas pun balm ni, so memang ok kalau nak guna for babies. Harga pun quite ok..less than rm10 i think? Haritu beli dkt watson. So easy to find this balm.

4. Percussion
Belajar thru you tube first ya? Jangan sesuka hati tepuk belakang baby without any knowledge. Kesian baby. in our defense, we think that the baby cry sebab batuk rupanya sebab sakit bila silap cara buat percussion. Percussion sambil mandi wap amat digalakkan :) Kite buat dekat Aleesa, nampak beza before and after.

5. Mandi lemon

Masa mandikan baby, perah sikit lemon dalam bathtub baby. Biar baby dapat bau zest lemon tu. Dari Aleesa kecik memang kite guna lemon as a remedy if Aleesa demam ke selsema ke. It works wonders for her. And usually bila kite mandikan Aleesa with lemon, kite tak guna sabun baby dah for Aleesa. :) Bau lemon tu je dah cukup. Sedap ok bau lemon. Sape setuju? 

Other than that, kite bagi jugak anak kite makan ubat from hospital. Some parents memang akan say big NO untuk bagi their baby ubat kan? Same macam kite jugak dulu. But at some point bila dah buat guna natural remedies anak still tak ok, siapa boleh buat tak tahu je kan? mesti nak anak sihat balik, betul tak? First trip to klinik, dr bagi ubat cairkan kahak (bromohexine... something which sebenarnya tak boleh ok for baby bawak 2 years which i dont know at all?! usually kite mesti akan google which is good which is not good for baby, but at this time tak tergerak langsung nak check huhu. masa bagitau the other dr, dr terkejut and ask which dr yang prescribe that medicine for my daughter huhu).

Bawah ni gambar ubat tu.

So bila jumpa 2nd dr, dr bagi ubat demam, ubat titik hidung for flu and antibiotik. Antibiotik je kite kena makesure Aleesa habiskan yang lain punya ubat just guna bila perlu. So for now, kena bersilat sikitla nak kasi Aleesa makan antibiotik ni 😆

3 times daily = 3 times bersilat nak kasi ubat.

Poor my baby.

Masa nak kasi ubat je nangis, dah habis makan ubat terus happy balik as usual. 😅

Gambar bawah ni gambar ubat antibiotik prescribe by dr. Pls jangan sesuka hati beli dekat farmasi and give it to yr baby. Sebab different baby weight will make different amount of dos the baby need to take. Unless u are a dr yourself la kan.. hihi.

Doakan my baby daughter get well asap pls?

Tq everyone! ttyl ♥

Hospital Bag! - senarai barang untuk ibu & baby

Assalamualaikum ♥

Beg hospital ni kite masuk 8 month dah start prepare sikit sikit. Since nak senangkan diri sendiri masa dekat hospital nanti, kite asingkan beg untuk kite and untuk baby. Jadi takdela bercampur barang and tak messy bila mencari barang. hehe.

Senarai ibu
Baju lengan panjang - 2 helai
Kain batik - 2 helai
Tudung instant - 2 helai
Stoking - 2/3 helai
Sweater (kena pakai takut badan masuk angin)
Toileteries
Set bersalin - kite bawak minyak nona roguy untuk sapu badan je elak masuk angin
Makanan *ni penting sebab kite akan kerap rasa lapar bila breastfeed baby
Selipar
Breast pump
Nursing bra - 2/3 helai
Disposable panties (totally a life saver)- 2 packs/10 pcs
Maternity pad - ada yang prefer pad biasa. Terpulang ok? kite pakai maternity pad jenama madame sebab takut luka sakit pakai pad biasa since luka tak kering lagi hehe. Plus maternity pad ni lembut. kite tak beli matrnity pad jenis tali, tak reti pakai 😐
Buku pink! - PALING PENTING

Senarai baby
Rompers - 2 helai
Night suit - 2 helai

* Dalam pada kite dah prepare barang awal pun still ada missing item(s) hehe. Selipar kite lupa nak bawak since admitted tengah malam kan. Pinjam selipar husband je buat pergi tandas. besaq pun takpalaaaa asalkan ada selipar takkan nak pakai kasut tumit masuk tandas 😂 lagi satu, breast pump. dalam seminggu pertama kite lepas bersalin tu, susu yang keluar is kolostrum. Banyak kebaikan kolostrum untuk baby thats why kalau boleh pam dan simpan since the milk lifespan can go up to > 6 months. kite ada few bags EBM left (yang kite pam masa early pantang) untuk Aleesa. Itupun day 4th pantang baru start pam untuk buat stok sebab baru keluar hospital 😄

p/s: barang baby semua kite letak dalam plastik seal. masuk labour room kite sediakan satu set pakaian lengkap baby dalam plastik seal then pass dekat nurse. Senang kerja dah asing ikut plastik kan 😊

Selamat 6 bulan anak! Pengalaman Breastfeed kali pertama

Assalamualaikum

Last two weeks Aleesa dah masuk 6 bulan.

Mixed feeling betul bila anak makin membesar ni. tambah lagi bila 24 hours memang berkepit dengan anak. All her progress memang berlaku depan mata. sebak pun ada  bila sekarang aleesa dah boleh merangkak. kenapa laju sgt membesar baby ibu ni?! huhu 😂 membesar dengan sihat ya anak. normal kan ibu ibu rasa gini. ;p

6 bulan = 6 bulan journey BF Aleesa.

Though journey i must say.

Husband and family become the witnesses when i go through this BF journey. Bumpy road at the very beginning. With lots of hurdles.

At first, I have no knowledge at all about breastfeeding . But my husband and i jadikan google our very own bestfriend to learn about bf since kite nekad nk bf my baby. Banyak sangat kami belajar. How to overcome engorge, how to stimulate the milk production. Ada jugak banyak bittersweet memories. One of it haruslah momen masa puasa. Which is production susu jatuh merudum yang buat kite jadi kalut. Eh macam macam lagi la kenangan. Hehe. Nak cerita in details tak habih satu entri blog ni kang haha.

Whatever it is, Alhamdulillah. ♥

I exclusively BF my daughter for 6 months!

Bak kata orang sekarang, dah dapat diploma in bf gitu.

But different people will go through different journey. Takkan sama. Ada yang smooth dari awal hingga akhir, ada yang struggle dari mula hingga akhir. Tapi apapun niat kite semua bf baby sama kan? Untuk ibu yang bagi anak fm jangan down. Benda tu tak salah pun. I know u had done your very best. Don't be sad ya. Please jangan compare our kids to other kids ok mommies? Believe me. Once we start to compare, we will always make a comparison with the others. Semua orang ada keupayaan dan kelebihan masing masing :)

My target of course nak exclusively bf my baby daughter for 2 years. Moga rezeki untuk anak ibu berpanjangan. Amin, inshaAllah..
