Zaim's Feeding Bottles History...

• Dr. Brown’s -I should say, it is the best anti-colic bottles. Zaim hardly suffer colic when he was baby. But it is not BPA Free. At this time, I am not aware of this BPA issue yet. I had bought 10 bottles for Zaim, and then only I heard about BPA thingy. Baru sebulan gune… *Sigh – terase sangat membazir! How I wish I should be more alert!!!

  Oh, btw, it also has so many parts, and trusts me, quite hassle to clean it. Every single tiny angle should be clean or else, kulat cepat naik at its rubber valve. Then the parts pun quite expensive. Jenuh betul asik nak tuka parts jeee..

• BFree -Then I switched to Bfree. It has the same concept like Dr. Brown. In fact, all the part in Dr. Brown can be used in this bottle, it just that it is BPA Free bottles and the tube ade temperature indicator ;)

  Yes, and again sgt leceh okeh nak basuh…

  Since Zaim dah setahun, probably takkan kene colic, so I decided to change his bottle. All because we cant stand the hassle when cleaning Bfree bottle. *sukati le nak kate aku hape, malas basuh botol anak ke ape ke, tapi mmg leceh ok! It tooks at least 30 minutes to clean 4 bottles properly. Blom kire sterile lagik.

• MAM -Zaim rejected this bottle because teat botol ni kemek sket. Totally reject okay even after few times trial. Different anti-colic system but I have no comment lah sebab tak properly gune this bottle pun.

• Nuby -Again rejected. Sebab ape taktau lah. Tengok teat dia mcam ala-ala Bfree tapi Zaim tamo. Nak buat cemane kan…

  Time ni Mommy and Babah dah pening. Botol ape ni nak ganti Bfree ni… Tak larat dah nak deal with this bottle…

• Tommee Tippee Closer to Nature PP At last, I got replacement bottle for Zaim. End of hassle when cleaning the bottles. Such a cute bottle for 260ml (mcm tak caye je pendek sgt tp muat 9oz!), anti-colic, BPA Free, and less part compare to BFree. But the anti-colic system is not so good like Bfree. Zaim macam kene lepas the teat and amik nafas mase minum susu. Macam mengah sket la.. like normal bottle I think. Maybe because Bfree, baby memang senang minum. Tak mengah, tak perlu lepas the teat and amik nafas. But semalam Bie kate, ok je botol tu... Hahaha Babah testing botol Zaim... hikhikhik.. Taperla lame2 nanti Zaim okey la kot. Tak biase lagi. At least he can accept this new bottle. ;)

Overall I think Bfree still win my heart, the best BPA Free anti-colic bottles for babies, but IF ONLY IT HAVE LESS PART. But, am more than happy, to meet this new Tommee Tippee PP bottles. TQ ;)

Note: Today secara rasminye BFREE and DR. BROWN bottles akan dibuang. Buang kat kitar semula ke mane ek? Sayangnye laa.. Hukhuk.. So gambar2 ni purposely di capture utk kenangan...

Akhirnyeee...

Hari ni aku termuntah jua... After 3 months, bergelumang ngan perasaan loya, pening, tadi first time aku gagal control perasaan mual tu.. Hahaha.. habis segala mihun sup, nasi lemak keluar dari perut. Mak datuk peritnye tekak. Bile ek last aku muntah.. Mase bersalin kan Zaim dulu lah... Dalam labour room... Tapi bile dah selesai memang lega... dan lapar.. tapi tade selera lah kan nak makan pon. Seminggu dua ni, loya, pening, mual2 ni dah mula kurang. Aku ingt dah ok, tapi hari ni lain pulak jadinye.. Tambah pulak skg ni panas yang amat siang2... Lagi buat aku sakit pale... Faktor berkait la kot mengikut teori aku.. heheh..

Tu jelah cerite hari ni... Muntah pun nak cerite... Ntah hape-hape.. Hahah kasik chance la kat aku.. Aku jarang muntah... Pengalaman berharga ni... ;P

Makan ape ek nak kasik hilang loya? Sebab aku tak tahan masam, so asam tak masuk list ok. So far, aku bau balm, and makan gule2 hacks... Kalo ade cara lain btau ek... Tak best la muntah.. Seriyessss...

Zaim Idlan - 18mos

He, still have only 8 teethes, but I can see new one is coming out, probably in a week. Lambat kan gigi Zaim tumbuh. Walopun begitu, Zaim suke sgt makan kerepek ikan, kerepek or maruku or tempeyek. Aduss.. susah betul lah.. Tak padan tade gigi. Dulu bagi la dia rase sikit-sikit, pastuu.. dah pandai dah.. asal nampak tupperware, 'bukak' 'bukak'...'memi nak..memi nak..' Lembut je suare tu nak mintak. Sampai jadi kesian. Kalo dia mintak kat orang lain, memang confirm dapat. Cair org mendengar dia mintak.. huhu.. Kalo tak dpt pulak, guling2 kemain lagi... Jenuh nak pujuk.. Actually, bukan la tamo bagi dia makan, tapi haritu dia makan, terus sembelit. Payah dah nak poo-poo... Mungkin sebab dia tak de gigi, so mende2 tu payah nak hadam. So skg ni kene control la food kat rumah, simpan sume tupperware makanan. Kalo mamat tu nampak... haru nanti... ;P

Pon begitu, Zaim bukan la suke makan junk food. Buah, sayur, nasik, bubur, sup, yogurt, susu and air suam tetap pilihan hati... Cume ayam and ikan je dia bleh makan. Daging blom bleh kunyah... Coklat, gula2, or any makanan budak2 ni Zaim reject. Mommy memang tak penah beli lah utk Zaim, tapi kalo ade birthday party ke, orang bagi ke, mommy bagi chance kat Zaim nak rase. Tapi Zaim yang tanak.. hehehe.. Good boy. Cume nak hilangkan addicted to kerepek2 ni, mommy tak jumpe pengganti nye. Jenuh replace dengan biskut still dia tanak. Ade idea tak kat mane nak carik kerepek2 or something yang keras utk dikunyah selain dari biskot yang senang nak di hadam and selamat di makan? Maybe sebab Zaim nak tumbuh gigi kot sebab tu dia prefer makanan keras. Teether? Ha, dia tamo dah gune. He thinks he is too big for teether kot. Ahaks

At 18mos, tak berape byk lagi words yg Zaim bleh cakap. Tapi dah bleh follow lah kalo kite ajar tu, or bile dia menyampuk. Contoh Bie asked me kat kedai haritu, "Nak sosej ayam ke daging?" Belom sempat mommy jawab, Zaim datang menyampuk.. "Ayam!".. Bukan nye paham pun soklan tu... Kalo dengar TV pun bleh ikut dah. Haritu, bleh dia cakap Bravooo... suh repeat balik tak reti dah.. Kalo Tv ckp je dia nak ikut. ;P And skg Zaim more into mengenali things around him. Few things yang dia dah faham:

• Body part - nose, mouth, teeth, eye, ear, pipi, hair, kaki, hand, and penis (opsss.. sensor!)hehehe... Suke betul main tunjuk2 muke orang..
• Identify vehicle on the road - Bas, lorry (pronounce as iiiyooo..), motor, car.. train (toot tooot) Kalo car yang cantik, lorry yang besar, or bas yang menarik perhatian dia... bukan main menjerit Fuyoooo... Jakun je kan? Lagi kalo dia yang nampak dulu, selagi kite tak iyekan, selagi tu terjerit2... bajet bestla tu dia nampak sume tu dulu dari kite.. ;P
• Sembahyang - part ni I am quite proud of him. Dia tau susunan sembahyang, dari takbir, rukuk, sujud, repeat for few times, and then bace doa. Nak sembahyang pun, kene ade sejadah. Siap tunduk je.. Mulut tu bunyi pstt..psst.. kumat kamit. comel! I tried to record him performing solat, tapi dia ternampak je camera terus benti solat, pose sambil cakap.. "mile.. mile.." (smileee ;))
• At outside, he likes to say whatever he sees and he knows, such as flower (awe), pokok (kakok), star, moon, lampu (ampu), mamam (kedai makan), cat, dog, bird
• Habit, whenever we want to go out, he will find everyone in the house, nak salam and byebye and flying kiss. Then mesti nak kene tutup TV, laptop, and pintu. Sume kene tutup baru bleh pergi. Kemas toy jugak kalo bersepah. Then tau kene pakai shoe, soo mulut tu tak benti2 ckp "shoe shoe".
• Oh ye, sejak dia pandai berjalan mase 10bulan tu, dah train dia letak baju kotor dalam laundry basket. Skg, tengah nak train ajar buang diaper, tapi sekali bukak tong sampah, habis nanti dia selongkar sampah2 tu.. ;P
• Kalo dah minum susu, dah pandai letak botol atas meja so nanti tak hilang, pening Mommy nak cariknye...
• Kalo dtg rumah orang, or balik rumah dah, dia akan bagi salam sebelum masuk... "Kakommm.. kakommm". Tak kire pintu depan rumah ke, pintu setor ke, pintu bilik ke, asal tertutup dia nak masuk, dia akan bagi salam. ;)
• Bile mandi, dah bleh nak gosok gigi. dulu cukup geli tengok toothbrush dia. Jenuh Mommy nak gosok gigi dia.. Sekarang dah faham. Masuk bilik air, pee dulu, then wash face, gosok gigi, sabun, main bubbles, shampoo, wash hand, and wash feet. Dah siap sume, kene tutup air. Dah kua bilik air, kene tutup lampu. Kalo kite yg terlupe, bising la kene bebel. ;P
• Sekarang tgh nak ajar Zaim count, tapi dia minat no. 2 and 3 je "Twoooo Teeee" No 1, tak reti lagi. Secara tak langsung, dia tak reti lagi panggil Wan dia. ABC pulak, suke lagu je.. Kalo ajar tamo ikut sgt... Balik balik request, AB! AB!.. tu maknenye suh nyanyi lagu ABC. Selain tu suke lagu itsy bitsy, twinkle, if you happy, 1,2 buckle my shoe, happy me me me... Ni sume lagu favourite yang dia bleh ikut barney menari... ;)
• And now pun tengah mule nak panggil dia abang. Dia sebut 'Amang...' kadang2 'Angang'. Tapi lately ni dia cakap dia pulak yang baby... hmmm.. tamo jadi abang dah la tu..
• And skg, hobby dia buar drawing. Bleh la nak lukis line and circle. The rest tu conteng2 jelah. Tapi mulut tu asik cakap 'B' 'B'... favourite letter dia.

Itu jelah cerita Zaim, utk jadi kenangan di hari tua nanti. heheh. Actually, Zaim tengah demam ni. Panas sampai 38.5* malam tadi. Last Saturday, kene inject. Hari Ahad pag itu okey lagi.. Siap pergi swimming.. Ptg baru start demam. Mule dah manje semacam... Tapi Mommy ade keje so kene la jugak hantar dia pergi nursery half day. Tu yang teringat dia, sampai tulih entry ni... Jap lagi Mommy amik Amang Zaim okay!

Naik Angin - I had a bad day today

Today I was really pissed off. With all the workload, and a meeting and a 18mos-son to take care. It is not that I cant juggling with these works. I can. I had plan everything, including woke up as early 5.30am to be sure that I am well prepared for my conference call. And I had plan to make sure that Zaim should be at nursery at that time or I hope Bie could give me a hand to take care him during my conference call. But then sume yg aku plan tak jadi. *ask me, is it so hard to manage this? and my answer is no and i dont believe why hal ni pun taleh nak di sort out kan * During the conference call, yeah, a lot of issue, a lot of noise really make me pissed off as I cant listen well what my team lead said. My head is dizzy - yes, saya mabuk, and my head is spinning, sentiase berpusing. And my mom did not understand that I am on meeting, asking to do this and that. What I need from them is co-operation. Please help me. It's not always happen but I do really appreciate if they could help me during my important hour. It's not that long. Less than an hour. Is it so hard?

I bet next time I better do all by myself, make sure things goes well without hoping for others to help. Because once they cant commit, yang kene nye aku. Not them! I lost all the hope today

Deep down inside, I was sad, to hear Zaim was crying out loud for more than 30 minutes, and I do nothing to comfort him. *=( Only when the call was ended, I run to hug him and to ease him. Sorry, boy, next time I'll send you to nursery early so u don't feel left out bile mommy meeting.

Nak cerite ape ye...

My works start to menimbun dan terus menimbun. Masuk today, baru hari ke-3 and I have been assigned 3 specs. Not even one finish yet. Biaselah kan baru gear 1. How's my working hours doing with me? Hah.. Tak pasal-pasal aku kerje lebih mase... Okay, started at 6am, then working til 10am or 11pm... Depends if I feels like to come to office or not, then I grab my lunch... and next continue working til 5 or 6 sampai Zaim balik... Do you read me??? Meaning keje dari subuh sampai ke maghrib... I hope esok lusa I can up my gear to 3 or 4. Keje siap cepat, baru la happening work from home... Anyway, tadi jalan-jalan kat facebook, tengok Bie ade upload gambar yang cukup sentimental gituu.. Inilah dia Dumok & GLR.. Cantik tak Dumok? Hensem tak GLR@Barney? -sebab kaler dia purple hijau ;P tapi tapi sayangnyeee GLR dah merantau ke tempat lain... Maka Dumok pun dapatla boyfriend baru name dia Odah.. (ehhh.. Odah name pompuan leee.. ahaks!)

Ade few things urgent nak kene buat ni... All this need to be done by latest:

• tonite..

New routine

New year, new project, new working hours.

I had just informed by my team member that we will be working from 6am-2pm and only required to come to office once a week, that is every Tuesday for conference call. The rest, I will work from home. I accepted this new working hours, with.. ermmm I can say, happy but not so happy lah. Dah biase actually keje odd hours camni. Dulu with TXU, ade time tu 2 bulan aku keje 10pm-7am... Tak kenal bulan, tak jumpe matahari...

Happy, because yeah, I dont need to rush to office every morning, and since I finish my work @ 2pm, I can go for movie with Bie. ;) Meaning extra time for dating. And in case Zaim is sick, I can monitor him from home. I also can save my money as I dont need to pay more for petrol. What else? Yeah, I can watch TV and relax or sleep in case I have finish my work. I also can have lunch with Bie or cook for him?? erkk.. not sure if am able to do it... Keep it for laters... What else?? Oh.. I don't need to stare at my wordrobe to choose top to wear, -- yeah, because I have very limited maternity clothes to choose from. I can do cleaning anyday I preferred to.. And I can go shopping anyday I want to too.. ;)

But, am not so happy, because I will have less communication with my officemate, no more sneaking out during office hour, no more eat-like-monster when we feels likes to, no more craving for food and hunt like there is no tommorow. Of course we do chatting and all. YM, Gtalk, Skype, and MSN are all legal in our office, but I prefer to communicate face to face, discussing our spec, get some opinions from senior... I will miss my table, my coffee machine.. - not sure if it worth to be missed. Maybe because kat rumah nak minum air, kene buat leee.. Kat office main tekan jee... and I have no chair and table in my house that comfort as I had in my office. *Reason to get new one, but I have no space, nanti my mom bising mane lagi nak letak barang2 nih... The furniture in her house, actually more than enough. Sampai tade tempat nak letak dah... ;P Beli beli beli... Not just me actually, dia pun same daaaa.. I need new home... So I can have my own mini office... ;(

Work from home, actually gives me flexibility in completing work. Am not kind of person that so concerntrate to work for 8 hours. I kinda person who need to warm up first, reading email. Browsing for gossip and handbag, and blogs too. Then only I get hooked by my work. If I really hooked with my work, mind you, I will never care about other things. But if am not, haha I will not do my work. Terrible kah? Tak baik judge me like that... I know my responsiblity, and I never let my malas-kerje attitude menguasai saya... ;P What I do, is I will work late night, if there is no much progress during my working hours.. Kire qada' balik lah... Sampai ke subuh pun takpe.. Tu pasal dulu aku imsomnia... Heheh.. That's me. You can count on me... ;)

Back to office mode.

Sangap gile. Lucky tadi Has dtg half day, teman aku lunch and ade le jugak teman aku nak bersembang. Ni dia dah balik. Aku duk sorang2 je kat row aku. Gile! Patut aku sambung cuti or work from home je. Nak balik, tapi dah ade work assignment pulak. Terkial2 sungguh ngan proj baru ni.. Tapi sempat jugak ni update blog. Ngelat sungguhhhhh...

Hahah Barney tu lagi besar dari Zaim!... Nanti mommy beli okay! Haritu pergi Singapore, Zaim ternampak patung Barney. Menjerit2 nak kan Nini dia. So belikan lee.. Mommy ingat nak beli yg besar, buat kawan time tido.. Tapi dh tak sabar sgt nak barney kecik tu jugak... Masuk ni dah 2 patung barney lagu2 tu dia ade... *sigh tak jadila beli yg besar dah. Nanti byk sgt pulak.

Aiseh, umah tepi Zoo Negare pun tak visit lagi, Zoo Johor jugak yang sampai dulu. Heheh.. Tapi paling seronok time pergi JB tu sempat jugak kami menyinggah ke Singapore - demi makan Nasik Ayam Penyek and Sup Merah. Layan habissss.. Datang Singapore semata-mata makan jek.

Happy New Year 2009 to All ;)

It is a good day to start a good things. A good day to start aiming for our next target. A good day to start new life. A good day to improve ourselves. Whatever you aim for, I wish u all the best. Me too have several things in mind. But the list is not complete yet. Hahah.. sket2 adelah.. My aim this year are:

• To move out from my parent house, provided the house should be more comfortable and safer than my house. Taleh tangkap muat je. Or else, I will still prefer my mom's house. Heheh.. Buat ape nak pindah kat rumah yang less comfort and less safe dari rumah sekarang kan? So, will try to start hunting for our future-to-be-home-sweet-home. Maneee la dia ni... *sigh
• Be ABAP certified. This one kene jugak2 pass tahun ni.. Taleh postpone dah.
• Clear up my credit card debt. *Entah bile nak surut, kalo asik swipe je kan...
• To hire a maid. Hopefully Allah tetapkan lah hati aku ni... Anak nak masuk dua ni. Hopefully, aku dapat maid yg ok, sayang zaim and baby, dan hormat kami sekeluarga. Entah kenape hati aku lebih trust kat nursery Zaim. Tapi atas sebab-sebab yang dah lame di fikirkan, (yg negative side lerr) I think I really need someone to handle my babies.
• To stay healthy and keep fit throughout my second pregnancy.
• Improve my swimming skill. ;P
• Go vacation for a week! No disturbance from others! Just me and my lil family. ;)
