Yes, ive been “shouting”  and flooding my twitter about babywearing, asking what is best. We used to have baby bjorn but we let it go coz we thought we no longer need it. To our surprise just couple of weeks after we let it go i came to know that i am pregnant. Haha, so much of being confident “im done” hahhaha.

Nway, was looking for another babywear and came across ergo. Well i dont foresee that i’ll be wearing the baby all the time coz im number 1 fan of strollers. Yes when u have 3 toddlers to move about in the mall, you will be sooo thankful to whoever invented stroller. Especially the twin stroller 😀 However, in case baby scream his/her lungs out we will then have to babywear for awhile to comfort him/her. We will need to babywear coz we need our hands to push the stroller of the other 3 kids.

As i was browsing through online, i saw few range of Ergo, anybody care to share with me the difference of ergo range. I believe they have the ergo baby carrier, ergo organic range, ergo performance , ergo baby sport. anyone can share with me wat are the difference between one range to another?

Yes i know, i should go to the shop and give it a try…but baby is not out yet and i have a dateline to propose to En Suami to get one ergo for me. So i badly need help based on reviews from moms out there.

I saw in the Ergo Facebook, these 2 came from their new range, the ergo performance

comes in lime green

and also in grey.

hmm, the limegreen abit too bright while the grey lak mcm dull…which is better for you. Bear in mind this carrier will be worn by both, either me or syauQi, so need something that is unisex

however i somehow like the pattern of the ergo organic from the older version, i like the emboidery..but do you think its suitable for men then (the emboidery pattern)?

i saw in the Ergobaby FB recently, they have new range of ergo organic, but i find that the colour is rather kusam…didnt attract my attention at all…so i gonna cross that out in my list

oh and also, do i really need the infant insert to carry newborn?

wats’ the different between these 2 infant insert?

heart2heart infant insert

ni mcm kain padded biasa je, same tak if i just gune a blanket then?

really appreciate reviews and feedback from mom out there, as my dateline is tomorrow!

oh chop, the mobywrap have nice patterns too! yummy..nak mobywrap jugak

luv this the most!

but i can never say no to blue

yummy blue with sweet lovely pattern

n i have few people recommend me to get beco…

ERGO vs BECO…

how now?

thank you in advance 😀

*chop if i have a very easy baby, no fuss at all (AMEEN!) and i wish to let go my carrier yg nk beli ni, ade potential buyer tak? sila angkat tangan..hihi

Alhamdulillah, i am now entering my 24th week of pregnancy, that marks me being 6 months preggie. Glad condition is getting much much better as compared to the first few months. No more throwing out as i already eliminate food that i cant take, and sadly i have to say…this lil  baby of mine anak omputih, i can’t take rice. Well white rice especially. Every now and then i will try to eat fried rice or so, but i gonna need it to be just a plain fried rice, no perencah tumis watsoever, it will make my tekak rase kembang lalu mahu muntah. So what do i eat if im not taking rice? Seriously i dont know how to answer to that question. I eat randomly, nothing in particular everyday kena piki what to eat. I think skit lagi syauQi akn muntah tak larat dgr my soalan “lapar lah…nak makan ape eh?”

As i approached 24 weeks, i do feel rather panic. It reminds me of giving birth at 26 weeks to my triplets. Making lotsa doa’ it wont happen again. During uZAir’s pregnancy, i had contraction at 32 weeks, lucky thing by then i already knew how contraction was like and immediately rush to the hospital and they managed to stop the contraction. As most of you might already know the story, during the triplets, i had no idea what contraction was like. Doctor said macam period pain, but i dont get period pain…so i was cluless how it feels. When i was actually having my contraction i though it was just one of those pregnancy discomfort thus i slept through it. In fact seblum tido tu i remembered clearly, i was chatting with syauQi (he was in Melbourne) and halfway tru the chat i told him,”jap rase mcm nak berak, sakit perut…tp dh gi toilet 2 kali tak pulak berak” (first pregnancy mah, mane nk tau).  As i slept through the pain, subuh baru lah rase sakit sgt, woke my mom up  mintaq tlg bwk gi hosp. (husband was away for work) . At the hospital heard nurses and doctor said i was 9cm dilated, n my first question was “maximum brapa cm?” when the doctor told me 10cm i was like “haa? im only 1cm away? but im only 26weeks?” pastu mula lah episode kena “bebel” kenapa tak dtg earlier?

Making lotsa doa’ that this 3rd pregnancy will b another full term baby, insyaAllah: uZAir was born at 38 weeks.

Two weeks back, we went to my friend’s open house. Her sister happen to be one of the doctor in the SCN (Special Care Nursery – PPUM) team. Yes, she was there when hArith n athirAh spent months in the hospital, fighting to survive for their life. As we entered the house, we were surprised to see Prof CT Lim there (Prof leads the SCN team). After seeing him every single day for four months, we build a good relationship with him. Our kids still go to him for their paeds madical check up. Initially when we go for their follow-up check up at PPUM, the chances of seeing him was rather slim, it will be any random paeds doctor that will do the check-up, thus we decided to register our kids at the UMSC to enable us to see Prof CT Lim personally.

Coincidently, we had a lil gift for Prof and was just telling syauQi we should pay him a visit the following week. But since we bump into him, we tried our luck to invite him over to our house (since ourhouse is just 5 mins away from my friend’s house) To our delight, he agreed. Wahhh it was such an honour to have him as our guest.

Funny thing was, when Prof entered the house, suddenly hArith asked “mane telinga doctor?” I thought Prof’s hair was long that it covered his hair, but nope his ears wasnt covered. So i asked hArith for some clarification on his question. Again he said “mane telinga doctor? Then it triggered to me….ohhhh he was asking mane doctor’s stethoscope, hahah. He associate doctor with a stethoscope since every check up doctor will use that to check on him.

Prof stayed for tea for more than an hour or so, he saw the true colours of my kids behaviour and activities. Kids and syauqi managed to take a quick snap with Prof

hArith (760gram) and athirAh (600gram), born at 26 gestation weeks: one of Prof success story 😀

Alhamdulillah

Prof is such an observant man, each time die buat rounding, bukan je nurse, i pun kecut perut skali, making sure my nails are really short, no rings , bracelet or watsoever. If not sure kena tegur. Malu wo kena tegur. By the look at it, mcm die tgk sekali arung je at the babies, but no he actually sees every single detail. cadar katil budak tak tegang pun nurse kena woo. I remembered one of the days i asked him “Prof, how’s my kids’ progressing” and he answered ” you tell me, since u sit here longer than i do, i only come for couple of minutes and leave but as a mother i see that you sit by your kids for hours, so what do you see?” hihihih. And we  had a casual discussion on their progress and suprisingly my observation “report” was correct 😀

Oh and as usual, athirAh will be doing her own stuff mase Prof ade. but bile Prof nak balik, i called her to say goodbye to Prof, dgn muka selenge nye she came to the front door and said “Bye doc!” wave her hand and pegi balik to the tv. Wah sukehati je panggil doc instead of doctor…haha

A pharmacist shared with me the natural remedy for runny nose coz as a pharmacist she tried her very best to avoid giving drugs to her kids. She told me to use kunyit hidup (tumeric), yup not kunyit serbuk…kunyit hidup, get those very dark orange kunyit and stroke it at their forehead to the tip of their nose. Give it a couple of stroke, it will leave orange mark on the nose though.

*pic via google

And thats my problem now, my kids became conscious whenever i put the kunyit on them coz ppl will naturally asked them “eh knp oren kt hidung?” because of that they no longer allow me to put the kunyit on them 🙁

But seriously it works well for them. If kasi ubat it can prolong to over a week of runny nose but with kunyit hidup, insyaAllah after a day or two they fully recover from their runny nose. The best time is to put it first thing in the morning, and continue to put it later of the day again.

My two boys are down with runny nose, we have lotsa events to attend this weekend but they wont allow me to put the kunyit on them….aiyakkk. how now? But seriously it works better than giving them Zyrtec
