Bmilk management: warmer
I remember i used to look for the most convenient insulated flask that fits Sarah’s milkbottle so that i can de-cold (er, is there such word?) the cold bmilk i brought during outings, and so i bought this most petit Thermos flask that fits nicely a 4oz bottle…. And now i discover that Thermos do have the flask purposely for the use i’m looking for!!!! Hehe…but they dont...
The most interesting kid’s stuff i found this week is this really cool, well-illustrated, very colourful storybook. The best thing is….the stories are from the Qur’an!!! ..Wow,what can be more wonderful than to introduce little hearts to the beauty of the holy book and to instil a lifelong love to Quran reading -it’s an every mom’s dream!
Sentences are simple and...
auw….a pretty storage idea inspired by Japanese anemone box. I can arrange Sarah’s outgrown clothes according to her age with this thing and stack them by the window like pillows! Now … somebody please tell me how to register for a US postal address ;P
Bmilk management : Part II
Here’re the essentials, from personal experience ;D :
1. Breastpump - electric/bat op please. The dual-pump one is even better! But i think it’s way too expensive…huhu…
2. Milkbag - or any plastic container that can be sterilized. The one i use has double zipper feature, quite convenient, but i found this thing called ‘bottle liners’ online that is way...
Bmilk management: Part I
anakchedin: mye ko breastfeed lagi ke?
myesrpr: weekend lepas aku cuti pjg.....sampai isnin selasa, buat pasport sarah , shopping sakan kat ikea & ou, langsung miss nak expressed/bf waktu tghari
myesrpr: so tak de susu dah tghari....storage freezer pun takde
myesrpr: tapi nightime mujur sarah minum x bnyk,,, so still bf waktu malam (malas nak bgn malam bancuh formula pun..hehe)
anakchedin: ohh camtu ye?
anakchedin: kiranya kalau baby tak minum, automatic takde dah ye
myesrpr: haaa...tu la kalau dlm pantang rajin2 la store susu (tapi problem sbb freezer kecik)
myesrpr: dia deterioratela
anakchedin: cemana nak stores susu tu?
myesrpr: dulu aku store dlm tupperware ikea / whatever tupperware pun boleh...asalkan dia tahan utk di sterilize (tak deform/rosak)
myesrpr: pastu mcm tak muat freezer...so aku beli breastmilk storage bag
anakchedin: simpan dalam fridge je ke freezer?
anakchedin: ohhhh...
anakchedin: then panaskan balik cemana? microwave ye?
myesrpr: (mcm plastic bag yg dah pre-sterilize!)
myesrpr: nope!!!!!!
myesrpr: never panaskan!
myesrpr: dulu aku nak cepat, letak dlm air suam
myesrpr: tapi aku baca that will kill the antibodi too
anakchedin: ohhhh kiranya biar dia balik ke suhu bilik sendiri ye?
myesrpr: put under cool/warm tap water
myesrpr: normal tap water je la sebenarnya
anakchedin: ohhh. let it run through?
myesrpr: hmmm..meh aku suggest satu product.....first2 ingat nak beli bottle warmer (mahal sikit la), tapi xguna pun! sbb tak sesuai utk thawing breast milk
myesrpr: brand the first few years (ke, the first year)
myesrpr: thawing container
myesrpr: rm19.90 rasanya
anakchedin: how does it work?
myesrpr: boleh letak bottle/breastmilk storage bag dlm dia, then let the water runs thru
myesrpr: tapi ada injap
myesrpr: so that blh control air tu kluar (tak de la mcm membazir air kannnnn kalau letak bawah tap gitu je)
anakchedin: wow brilliant
anakchedin: n not too expensive as well
myesrpr: yup, so u have the convenient of the water akan sentiasa silih berganti, thus cepatkan the thawing process
anakchedin: so menarik
anakchedin: aku nak start buat satu buku collect semua info ni lah
anakchedin: ko n naa kan dah berpengalaman
anakchedin: bertuahnya aku...

sarah’s ‘waking-up-at-night’ depends on what she do during the day ….. a whole nite sleep if she’s out to mall with us the whole day (or simply going to her tokmi&tokba’s house in kj), but if she’s pampered by her bibik n slept the whole daytime….haiyyaaa…. seems like mama&daddy have to play peek-a-boo with u in the middle of the...
