In fact, I loveeeee spending my weekends time sitting in front of tv with my hands fulls of hook and threads. and I still active with beading. I just finished with my mom’s baju kurung (uhhhhh… forgot to take picture of the baju) early this month. And am planning to do some more beading project during Ramadhan, it’s for my baju raya la!! ^-^v

ok, ok, ok, stop rambling. This is suppose to be a VERY LIGHT entry. Calm down Rahma, u still have plenty of space to ramble about it on ur next entries…. breath innnnnn….. and slowly breath out

yupp!!! a baby sling I’ve been telling hubby about the sling and trying hard to persuade him to agree with the sling. Am not really into buying a stroller for our baby coz it’s a bit costly and kasian the baby duduk saturang dlm stroller. My friend, Kimora San, suggested me the sling and asked me to read Farrah’s site which i found very informative. After a few research on the sling, I told hubby about it and said “we must hv one!”  But hubby was not really interested. He said “mcm kampung2 jak tu…” hhhmmmm… nda blh jd ni, hv to use other trick.

So my first attempt was  googled images for ring sling and saw a picture of David Beckham n Tom Cruise wearing baby sling!!! Ah ha!!! Hubby blh terima ka ni ya???…. I know hubby is not a fan of neither of them, so googled again looking for Brad Pitt with baby sling LOLsss… why Brad Pitt? coz I heard my girlfriends talking about how macho he is because of the six packs… ;p and found this photo (below)… nda la bah kampung2 ni kan… lawa lagi the sling tu, black. Hubby mesti suka ni.

Second attempt, was to look for black sling since hubby love black color. Found one on Mama’s Patch, ok done! Need to save some more money for the sling

Anddddd times went by… I sort of forgetting all about the sling due to my so-called pregnancy-mood swing (ya right??!!) Some of u might be wondering either am getting the sling or not kan? Well, I got it!! yeayyyy… but not the black one. The purple one, and hubby like it too. Thanks to our lovely friends, Alicetine and Faizal for the sling. We (me actually) really treasured it coz it was in my wishlist and I really, really want it!! Rezeki baby bah tu kan hehehee… love u guys both!! xoxoxo    **“baby sayanggg… say thank you to aunt Alice & uncle Faizal nnt aaaaa…” ckp ni smbl usap2 perut

The sling tht we got from Alice and Faizal was in purple color and complete with small bag for baby bottle , a pillow and oso the guide book which is important because it teaches how to use the sling in diff way.

The sling is something I look forward to wear it. Me and hubby went thru the booklet and will surely use it when the bb is out. Oh ya, I forgot to mention tht u can wear it on newborn and it is a lot convenient to breast feed the baby while he/she is in the sling. So, no worry of people staring at you while breastfeeding in public, coz mcm ‘betapuk’ (hiding) jg tu baby d dlm ms menyusu Will surely share a photo of me or hubby wearing our baby in future, Insya Allah.  1 or 2 years from now, if you happen to see a guy wearing purple sling with baby in it walking hand-in-hand with a small cute2 lady d Gaya Street, kami la tu ahaksss!!! ^-^v

**We was thinking of trying it with Meme’ inside but looking at Meme’ innocent eyes (kunun la…) tia jadi la. In fact, the sling was meant for the bb so let Meme’ be hiksss…

Salam n hi all….

Naaaa… ni la our catches!! antara brg2 baby yg me n hubby managed to grab during Parkson’s sales last month. But there are some of items we bought not during the sale. And we found one shop at Putatan which offer u a really cheap baby wear, u can get as low as RM2.50!! Murah kan… maybe some of you might think the material is not good (that’s why la murah…) no la!! the material is ok, same as other branded baby wear.

Penat jgk shopping brg2 ni but it’s worth it especially if u plan what things u want to get every month.  That’s why it is important (yet easier) if u hv ur own wishlist. The first item tht I bought was the cloth diaper (CDs) which I got it online from Mommy& Bebe. Knowing me not so keen to spend my time and energy entering one shop after another, I prefer myself shopping online Then followed by few baby wear, baby toiletries, etc, etc, etc…

Our cute catches for our cute lil choms

Cloth diapers (CDs)… I really recommend every parents should start using this because it is really saves ur money!! U might not know that parents normally spend almost RM3024.00 (buying disposable diapers) or even more, if u’r using branded disposable diapers. And the cost is just for ONE kid only. And what if u have more kids wearing disposable diapers??!! U do the math…. Where by u can save up to RM2064.00 (3024 – 960) for using cds only (u spend RM960 for one child till he/she is 3 years old). In additional, it last longer and u can re-use it for ur 2nd, 3rd …. kids. And it’s saves our environment…  a good product to train ur kids to be an environmentalist ahakss… Well, if u want to know more about cds, you can refer to Mommy&Bebe’s site, they have a lot of info on cds.

Besides cds, we oso grabbed a few of these… disposable diapers (we only use this during my first week after deliver, Insya Allah), nappy liners and baby napkins (which we will use in case we experience lack of inserts for the cds).

Bottles for baby feeding.

It is important to choose a right product especially for baby feeding. Parents should aware of the material used in producing the bottles. Hubby chose Avent product, and we get great deal of this during the Parkson’s sales. Avent has been designing and manufacturing innovative solution for baby’s health and safety easier product since 1984. But most of the product are non BPA-free. Knowing that consumer needs is craving for environmental friendly product which is also save for baby, they started producing BPA-free bottles in February 2010. So, make sure u check the labels on the box (it should stated BPA-free) if u purchase Avent bottles. But one thing about Avent feeding bottles,  they are using a very baby-friendly material, that is significantly reduces fussing and colic (kembung perut la bah ni kan). So, for more info on Avent product, please click here.

And to make sure am perfectly ready and well-inform about pregnancy, I started to read Pa&Ma magazines, registered myself for pre-natal classes, join and be-friend with other blogger mom or mom-to-be, member of Pregnancy.com and force myself asking around about pregnancy

**ppsssstttt… I do have more stories. so do come back ya and don’t forget to cast your vote for Pearl Studs Earrings (Personal Group 1) because Borneocolours.com do have a mystery gift for lucky voter ^-^v

Salam and hi all

Goshhhh… I’ve been neglecting my blog, again….. uhhhmmmpp….

Anw, at least I hv few photos to share. But need some adjustment and editing a little bit before it’s ready. Eh, waittt…. I was suppose to share with u bout my 2nd trimester bah kan hehehee… sorry my bad. Yup, am at the edge of my 2nd trimester now. Alhamdulillah… am now 6 months or 24 weeks and 6 days if that’s how you prefer it to be. And according to my very reliable source…

“Your fetus weighs more than 1.3 pounds/ 600 grams. Though she still has little body fat and her skin is thin and fragile, she’s now well-proportioned. Her brain is growing rapidly, and she is starting to fill the space in your uterus. From crown to heel she could measure 11.8 inches/ 30 centimeters. If you went into labour at this time, however, many obstetricians and doctors would make every effort to halt the progress of premature labour to enable your baby to continue maturing.

You may be noticing faint, red or brown streaks known as striae or stretchmarks on your abdomen, hips and breasts. While creams won’t erase them, wearing a supportive bra may help prevent or minimise them on your breasts. They are very common at this stage of the pregnancy – about 90 per cent of women get them. After you’ve given birth, the reddish or brown pigmentation in the stretchmarks gradually fades, and the streaks become lighter than the surrounding skin.

Also, your eyes may be light-sensitive and may feel gritty and dry. This is a perfectly normal pregnancy symptom known as “dry-eye”. To ease your discomfort, use an “artificial tears” solution to add moisture.”

I remember my first trimester, it was quite hard to believe tht am actually pregnant. Why??? because i don’t experience any morning sickness, am not allergic to go to the kitchen, I managed all the ‘bau2 busuk’ (you know la kan, klu mom-to-be ni byk btl benda yg dorang sensitif especially bau2an). But i noticed (even hubby) tht i just LOVE to sleep. Pantang ada peluang, mesti buat taik mata punyala!! and malasssssss tahap gaban hahahaa…

Mengidam??? Not tht bad, I can still control my craving. I got nine months bah, jd nda payahla kelam kabut kan Teringat pulak ms first week dulu, I bought 2 biji buah tarap and I ate it all, myself. My in-laws doesn’t really like it. Hubby pun tia berapa suka unless buat cucur br hubby mkn. Tp I remembered my FIL yg kasi habis tu cucur… “sayang, membazir… nnt c rahma marah hehehee” he said.

O ya, and during my first and 2nd weeks, we noticed Meme’ telebih manja if he’s around me… He rarely playing with hubby but he sticks with me all the time, especially when my sleeping mode turned on… We guessed he can sense something is developing in my tummy. Even now pun, if he sleeps on my lap and suddenly the baby’s kicking or punching, he will awake and staring at my tummy hehehee… Tgk la bah gmbr2 ni, mostly hubby yg snap. Ms godam2  my Sony’s files (delete gmbr2 yg nda best) ada tejumpa. So, why not share it in my blog kan

na… ni la tmpt yg paling dia suka. sleeping on me heheee

dlm keadaan me duduk mencangkung pun dia blh menyelit tidur…

see…. mengelendot lg dia d kaki

and this photo… Meme’ sitting quietly in front of the toilet, waiting for me. Ms ni I was vomiting. And Meme’ la yg paling concern everytime he heard me vomited… cute kan… Hubby said, he will come closer to the toilet door everytime he heard me uwekk, uweekkk… “doi, kuat la bunyi sa klu muntah tu kan” … hubby, “iya heheheee…“

**What?? I said I don’t hv morning sickness?? Ya… betul la bah tu. But I do sometimes experienced muntah2 in the evening, 2 / 3 kali seminggu, tu pun klu I skipped my lunch. Masuk angin so petang or mlm mesti muntah.

Tomorrow’s my forth review with the clinic. Hopefully everything’s fine. I remember my third visit to the clinic last time, the nurse asked me to drink a full glass of glucose (punya manis) in 5 minutes. I was like “what thee…….???!!!!” >:( It’s the procedure, they said. They want to check my sugar level and see if I diagnose with diabetes. Alhamdulillah, the result came out negative. And ya, I do have few interesting photos to share with u guys. Do come back to check on my next post ya. Am still in a process of editing and water marking the photos heheheeee… it’s a photos of our catches during our one week holidays

Till then…. ^-^v

It’s been like ages (konon la heheheee) since my last post!! Am in Tawau (hometown) right now, enjoying my so called long vacation and since I got here, I’ve been neglecting my blog. But tht doesn’t mean I forget to vote, it’s a must LOLL

Nothing much to share with u guys (my vacation) it’s a normal holiday since hubby got 3 days off (Wed till Friday), so we decided to spend it all here in Tawau. Anw, the reason I was so anxious to update my blog tonite because I really, really want to share this vid with u all. We got it from hubby’s fb wall. Someone’s tagged the vid to him. The moment I saw the cat, I cried… yup, can’t help myself but to cry.

The cat’s name is Hero and he’s the most strongest cat I’ve ever saw… thank God the couples adopted him. Hope the person who did tht to Hero will get something worth in return!!!
