Asian Parenting Today.

24 Jul 2010This book was 1st introduced to me by the writer herself, Jennifer during my confinement. I called her for a postnatal home visit — RM150 for 1.5hrs — to help me with my breastfeeding dilemma, and she was an enlightenment. Natey has been fully breastfed ever since! Sadly, I didn’t really pay attention when she [...]
My verdict: (+) Easy to put on, adjust and remove (+) Better fitting (-) If not fastened securely, diaper may fall out while carrying baby (-) Baby can easily remove by pulling (-) Velcro’s hard corners would leave red marks/blisters when pressed continuously against baby’s delicate skin — especially the inside tabs My verdict: (+) [...]

Postnatal 09: Hair Loss.
5 Jun 2010Friends had warned me about the 3 months marker. At the beginning your skin goes Sahara — mine turned waxy, no kidding! — then your hair begins to drop like nobody’s business. It’s goodbye to luscious hair days and hello to omfg-hair-all-over-the-floor horror! *shrieks* Hair Loss After Delivery The most common period of hair loss [...]
Postnatal 07: Nursing Bra, pt 2.
In: Motherhood|My Reviews
17 May 2010True to its namesake I am being Carri(ed)well since Friday My Verdict: 2 words — God Sent! *breath with utter relief* Since wearing my new Carriwell bra last Thursday night, I did not have to deal with the painful ordeal of engorgement caused by blocked ducts. I still experience pain from the fullness, but certainly [...]
Postnatal 06: Nursing Bra, pt 1.
In: Motherhood|My Reviews
13 May 2010How many pairs of nursing bras does a nursing Mommy needs? Well if you are a shopping jinx like myself, you’ll probably have too many to go around BUT none of them fit. At least, not anymore. To date, I have collectively bought 12 pairs of nursing bras from Fabulous Mom: 2 Eunice, 4 Amber [...]
Hospital Bag, pt 3 – Real Necessities.
9 Apr 2010Let’s revisit this post — because you asked — and make a little adjustment. I’ve never packed a hospital bag before, so the one I did was a bit overboard. Can I blame it on the checklist I followed? *bleh* Honestly what went into the bag for “during labour” was unused and useless. Maybe because [...]

In: Baby Natey|Father To Be|Little Benjac Junior|Mother To Be|Motherhood|Thanksgiving
19 Mar 2010It was it! My story began at approximately 4.07am on 23 February 2010. Being a 1st time Mommy, I was unsure and so I endured — almost turning this story and LBJ into a home delivery *gasps* I recorded all the contraction time in my mobile as an unsent SMS. It was too early in [...]
