of.diapers.&.me.

The baby's asleep and Alhamdulillah it's easier to put her to sleep these days - especially for her day nap. All she needs is 2-3 minutes of dukung then terus lelap and yeah, due to her consistent timing jugak, it gets a wee bit easier for me to work on the house chores and masak - which is such a huge relief.

I'm thankful that she's getting less clingy in that sense, kot tak tido pon tamau asyik nak berkepit je macam anak koala bear. Not that I don't cherish the fact that my baby loves me so much that she wanted nothing but me, tapi tu lah, MIL going to come over and help us to look after her for one whole month during Ramadhan so I hope she'll be an easy baby for her nenek.

Well, Myra gonna turn 3 months in 8 days and she's been using like tonnes of disposable diapers. Heh, not that I don't wanna be more natural with cloth diapers - especially when they come with cute colorful designs and whatnot these days - tapi, I'm a working mum, if I'm too concern bout being environmentally right and whatnot, ade ke baby sitter nak melayan? Huuu..perhaps I'd put her on cd during the weekends lah kan?

Talking bout disposable diapers, we've been on a couple of brands - Mamy Poko, Huggies, Drypers, Pet Pet, Pureen - but the staple's Mamy Poko.

So let's ramble bout em for a bit ( yea, this what happens when you're a mum, you'll somehow stop rambling bout designer handbag and started fussing bout diapers instead).


Half of the stock in the guest room.

Momy Poko
It's our favourite diaper to date. We've gone thru packs of em. Dah beribu-ribu lemon - which I reckon bleh beli a decent pair of shoes with that money. In fact it's her 1st diaper. It doesn't leaks, cottony soft, no nappy rash, comes with velcro tapes and tak busuk. ha ha. :P I mean of coz la baby's poo is sorta busuk but the diapers won't give out the smelly, musty smell when it's full of wee wee and yea, it's comel some more - ade cartoon Winnie the Pooh. Yes, I'm a sucker for cute stuff. :P

Huggies Ultra
It's a cheaper and not as soft version of Mamy Poko and not as cute. :P ha ha.Recently we bought the other version - Huggies Dry tapi belum try.Huuu...review ape la ni.

Pureen
I bought this brand out of desperation when Myra was hospitalized for her jaundice, masuk hospital tak bersiap sedia ini la bahananyer, hospital lak takde jual yang best - yea, I never mentioned bout it before aight? Yea, baby masuk hospital, baby menangis duduk bawah lampu, mummy dia pon tumpang menangis. ha ha. Back to Pureen, well, it works lah for a diaper, but need constant checking and changing as it leaks and to my annoyance, gave Myra nappy rash. Yea, obviously takkan beli lagi or pakai lagi tho ade yang kasi free. :P

Pet Pet
We bought this out of a cousin's recommendation when Myra's 2 months old. It's cheap but comes with velcro tapes, good fit, soft, sorta cute and sorta okay for day wear tapiii...ianya adelah busuk. Ade love and hate relationships disitu. I soo wanna like it sebab murah giler and Mummy boleh la guna duit tu untuk benda2 lagha yang lain, but perhaps mempunyai benchmark yang terlalu tinggi as we've been using Mamy Poko for soo long. We still have a pack of it and maybe akan beli jugak la when it's on sale, so boleh la jugak pakai main-main- especially on Myra's berak days, yeah the little precious berak selang sehari then banyakkk pulak tu, okay too much information. he he.

Drypers
I don't know why we bought those diapers at the 1st place as it has nothing to shout about - except for the cute design and dirt cheap. Owh, now baru ingat, C*** insisted on trying them on - as he think the diaper mempunyai nama yang cool, Drypers. Hmppphh.. T_T Luckily we only bought the small pack. For the sake of reviewing, the diaper leaks, comes with those annoying sticky tapes,gave Myra nappy rash and busuk juge. 1st and last purchase lah nampaknya.

So yea, we're sticking with Momy Poko for regular use and Pet Pet for hari berak - owh Myra's still on BF so memang la sangat lawas adanya. :P

Talking about BF, ade la pulak yang nak suruh feed my lil baby with air masak. Jangan la pulak keluar idea nak kasi nestum segala. Haih, it's tiring to remind em that she's exclusively bf. How on earth am I supposed to educate these people?

It's frustrating at times. Macam la budak kecik tu tinggal rangka ke ape ke, padahal she's getting heavier with double chins segala - what make em think that she ain't getting enough nutrients?




Do I look scrawny to you?
It annoys me to answer those

"Minum susu badan jer?" (Whaddaya mean by jerrr???)

"Eh, dah nak kerja lum campur FM lagi?"

Phbbttt...sooo susu sendiri yang banyak-banyak tu nak buat ape? Mandiii ka? Why should I feed my baby with cow's milk when I have mine? Why am I having these nagging feeling at the back of my head as if these people think that I'm being a cheapskate hence the BF - yer lah susu ibu kan free, susu lembu kena beli okeh.

Cheapskate ape kalau nak invest on breastfeeding equipments sume dah makan ribu segala. Sometimes I feel like rubbing those facts on their face.

I don't give a damn if others' kid dah minum FM mahal, makan nestum/bubur umur sebulan dua then jadi sehat bulat tembam ke ape.

I'm trying my best to provide for my baby and I'll do that as long as I could, InsyaAllah, so please don't ruin it for me.

Keeping a smiley face whilst facing those unwanted suggestions are getting rather uneasy, so God help me.

Okay, am getting emotional, so later.

dd, i've known a number of married girlfriends who prefer their babies to have BF milk. I think it's good and in future, if I'm married and having a baby, BF is definitely the choice for my baby.

Pedulikan orang2 itu.

Myra sangat comel! =)
