Breastfeeding story part one

Hi all...

againnn.....fuuhhhh!!!! dusty&rusty....time to dust off my blog and update about my breastfeeding journey i guess. since a lot of people asking me bout tips, advices n etc..etc...sometimes rase mcm xqualified pulak ade intention to blog bout this.bukannye Dr ke, breastfeeding consultant ke, lactation consultant ke...soo im sooo sorry if got any pieces of advices yg actually xmengikut standard certain people. im just a normal people without any Dr title in front of my name, or isnt a Dr's wife or a Dr's daughter. ini memang pure org biasa =) all i want to do is just sharing bout my breastfeeding journey which i assume at least will give tak sorang, dua or maybe benefit to me for sharing this. =) right?

ok, first of all....physically&mentally prepared :

dont say that u want to breastfeed ur baby without any sacrifice. no sacrifice, no victory. dont say breastfeed is an easy task and assume everybody can do it. seriously.its not easy at all! trust me!the situation may varies from me to other mommies out there.please note that most of the time im handling my baby alone. esp for certain people who say : "penyusuan ibu sukar dilakukan tanpa sokongan ayah, bila ayah sentiasa menyokong ibu,maka mudahlah proses ibu menyusukan anak"...... honestly....and this is a fact.most of the time when im having problem with breastfeeding, i never got any "supportive" feedback from husband.

eg: me: "sayang,my nipple cracked or was bleeding just now"...
     hubby: "ooo, sapu la ubat"....

thats it.if that is what u call-  being supportive, so errrr......maybe yes.

me: "syg, i risau ebm azriff tinggal sikit dlm deep freezer tu"
hubby: "tak payahla risau, kan boleh pump lg".....

so.sekian. dont get me wrong, in this case, im not blaming my husband. im aware of his "hati keras-non-romatic-hati batu- type" since before kawen lagi. nanti ade pulak yg ckp i kawen pakse.muahahahah. bukan.bukan.memang ade org mcmni.sila balik buat sujud syukur if hubby anda seorang yg super romantic bile u all ckp sakit,dia tlg bg tips ala2 Dr on the spot ke or ape2la yg melambangkan hubby anda seorang yg romantic.(xbrape nak tau ciri2 husband romantic since i have a errrrr.......xbrape nak romantic type).hehehe. saya redha. memang betol. tujuan i  bgtau dia i got sore nipples or bleeding ke just for the sake of sharing.itu sahaje. mmg xde la nak harap respond berjela2 dr dia sbab mmg dh kenal dia. so, my point dkt sini is : kene mentally prepared la if you kene g through all those hard things alone and have to find ur own solutions.
cuma, yes disini im very2 lucky,even if my husband tak reti la nak jd sweet talker or romantic2 ni, dia sangat supportive from financial side. yes, when Allah gives you something, it wont be too perfect kan? so ade yg lebih dan ade yg kurang. maka, bersyukurlah dgn ape yg anda dpt =) disini mula2 ms dlm pantang i guna medela swing, tp memang serious menyampah psl i dgn nak ambil exam masters lg dlm pantang, nak kene pump one side dh half an hour, other side lg? then habis pump azriff bgn, kene bg susu lg? so i pon ckp kt hubby i, nak medela freestyle. dia xbnyk ckp terus beli. (sbab dia mmg jenis xbnyk ckp pon.hehhehe). if i nak anything berkaitan dgn baby,i can buy anytime. like lanolin ointment, breast pads, ebm storage or anything. dr segi tu bagus pulak,tak pernah mempersoalkan.

bab mommy pulak . my mom memang xde fully breastfeed anak2 dia.mesti campur.smpai 2 tahun.can u imagine, ktrg balik dr hospital terus dh makan biskut marrie. gempak x my mom?haha.i dont know la mmg style org dolu2 ke ape,risau sgt budak nangis, tak cukup makan.so drg sumbat makan.berdoalah semoga tiada effect terhadap anak dikemudian hari. so my mom keeps on saying"

"kalau x cukup susu tu, tambah susu formula laaa:


"budak ni dah 3bulan, kenapa xbg makan lg, jgn ikot sgt ckp Dr, drg ntah2 dh bg anak drg makan"


ade certain makcik2 or cousin2 or kawan2 pulak:

"asyik melekap je anak ko"


"tak sexy betol kene angkat2 baju n sumbat kt anak mcm tu"

memang ade sesetengah org mcmtu.biaq pi la depa.anggap depa x fully exposed to benefits of breastfeeding. or drg tau tapi memmang prinsip drg xmo breastfeed baby drg, so fine la.everyone ade opinion masing2kan.simple as that =)

seee. soooo i xdela dpt fully support pon from anyone. semuanya diatas kehendak sendiri.i memang serious berkeras nak breastfeed anak i smpai sekarang. so if org ckp drg xdpt bfeed anak psl environment and all, i mean without effort,just buta2 dgr org cakap, i seriously against it. if u are very firm with your decision, then dont have to look back and listen to what others say about ape2 yg korang nak buat. full stop.

Breast/nipple condition

1st thing yg all mommies perasan, after give birth, bukan baby senang2 terus dpt latch and few cases ade yg inverted nipple. and i faced both problems. Azriff xpandai/xdpt latch on sbab my inverted nipples. bersusah payah ni dkt hospital berusaha and we were finally able to get him latched on by the 2nd day i think. memang payah jugak.kene selalu pump to help the nipple to come out a bit. and yes it works! my gynae helped me a lot mase mula2 give birth and advised me to fully breastfeed my baby. then baby kene jaundice, admitted like 2-3days dkt hospital,so memang i turun naik2 la from my room to nursery kt hospital tu utk bfeed baby. can u imagine, baru few dys beranak?berjalan mcm nak rak ,turun naik-turun naik. pump lagi,  every 2-3hrs pergi nursery utk bfeed baby.buat assignment lg, study for final exam lagi. eh semuala buat sekali. but im thankful for the experience. org kate, jgn ade anak ms belajar, for me memang its hard actually, but then its rezeki afterall, y nak avoid? in the end i got my masters and baby at the same time =) kan rase bahagia tu? Alhamdulillah.syukur sangat. so my advise if got inverted nipples ke ape, my gynae told me to play with it with ur hub's help before u beranak, so that ms baby keluar senang. then selalu pump utk kasi dia keluar sikit. so memang Alhamdulillah, it helps! a lotttttt! =) pakai teats ke ape,i memang tak suka. sbab i takot azriff confuse or i have to depend on that everytime nk bfeed baby.so mmg xamalkan. memang ade cracked n sore nips,but i tabahkan hati je meredahnye..... ok,babtu cerita kt point lain.he-ho!

Food intake

this is what we calll sacrifice. bende yg kita suka makan or selalu makan kene try to avoid it for a while until perut baby dh bley accept those foods. i mmg suka all hot&spicy food.pernah makan right after pantang. then poo baby ade mcm kesan2 red colour,according to my mom itu cili,maka percaye ajelah.then xmkn pedas sgt. selalu kene makan milk booster like oat,kurma,kismis, lobak putih.lobak putih jgn ceritalaaa, mmg dh jd mcm my snack dah,everytime pon makan tu. eat fish a loootttt, then mmg i tak minum coffee or nescafe langsung because i read somewhere caffien not good for baby and the effect is your susu will be getting lesser and lesser if you kerap minum coffee. luckily, i wasnt a coffee drinker. seriously, i thank God everyday for that. i tak perlu minum coffee to keep me awake and stay fresh in the office. i can control myself, dont have to depend on coffee or any air manis2.

 if you are talking about, coke, sprite, any carbonated drinks yg tak boleh/tak digalakkan ms bfeed baby,yes i memang TAK minum langsung carbonated drinks. hehehehe. so its quite easy for me i guess. if u mmg peminum tegar minuman2 ini, agak susah jugalah,so kene control. ice? hehehehe.....one more advantage for me, i memang tak minum ice. i mean if org order,or ade depan mate,minumla sikit2,tp namenye nak order air berais eg :nescafe ice, milo ice bagai memang saye bukan orgnye. my fav drink after meal is limau suam, water melon juice ,fresh orange juice all without ice. bab makanan2 lain like kurma, oat,kismis, lobak putih yg i kene mkn everyday, i anggap itu sebagai makanan yg menyihatkan.no harm at all.so ape salahnye kurangkan pedas dan makan,makanan berkhasiat? minum susu ,fruits,vege everyday. take it from a positive side la. bende tak bg harm pade badan,kenapa kene merungut nak makan? or give up breastfeeding because of that? but again, terpulang kepada setiap individu, yg nak makannye korang, perut n tekak yg nak telan. for me mmg takde problem, for others maybe its a huuugeee problem. so its all up to you how to handle it k darlings ?=)

Cracked/bleeding/sore nipple

bersyukurlah if anda tidak pernah mengalaminya. memang ade few moms yg dont have to face tis problem at all when they are fatihfully using lanolin ointment on their nipples. memang ade.for me, i memang have this problem masa dlm pantang then ok je, sampai la azriff dh bnyk tumbuh gigi. masa ok tu, tak terfikir pulak nak apply the ointment everyday, so bila azriff ada gigi, memang ya Allah sakit ok. siap bleeding kadang, nak pump pon serba salah., pump pon suction, so sakit, bg baby pon sakit. baby i tak gigit, tp sebab gigi dia dh banyak,so memang berlaga with nips,so sakit ya ampun. i tak pernah kene mastitis tu smpai la ade one day, recently jugak psl i xpump n tak bg baby sbab mmg sakit. cracked dia sampai i jumpa gynae i pon dia ckp "nipple u ni mcm trauma je ni"...haaaa, tak trauma plak i dengar bile dia ckp camtu. tp mastitis i tak teruk pon, i pump manually then ok je.bg jugak dkt azriff and apply ointment. so as for the result, my soreness was minimal, and the ointment soothed my skin when it was chafed. sape kate breastfeeding is not challenging? i never complain and it doesnt mean that im going through only good things while breastfeeding? seriously, i bnyk kali kene sore nips ni. lesson learned: always use lanolin ointment on nipples even mase tak sakit,insyaAllah takkan jd horror mcm i.Alhamdulillah skrgni, everytime after pump and malam i apply lanolin before tido.

bab pump manually sila belajar ye kawan2, sebab time sakit mcmni, memang horor gak if nak pump pakai medela tu, sbab nanti u can see ur blood mix with milk. lagi horror! if bagi baby pulak,nanti poo dia jd black colour,yes jgn panic if poo baby black colour if u ade sore nips ke ape,sbab mmg pasal dia hisap darah u ms bfeed. so memang i bnyk berkorban bab sore, cracked n bleeding nips ni laaaaa....sakit ok.jgn ingat xde cabaran langsung. sebab ade je org ckp "ko bolehla bfeed anak ko,semua ko senang ade medela freestyle, ade mase bla bla blaaaa"....hello yes, i admit all those things membantu TAPI if ade semua tu xrase tak tahan sakit pon tak boleh kan?if takde semangat yg kental pon almost impossible kan? ouh 1 more thing, blajar pump manually bagus during time yg krg lupe bwk pump n no baby with you,so takla jd breast engorgement bagai. nak breastfeed baby kene ade ilmu. kene educate yourself , sila google, or bace kt mane2la. i pulak tak suka attend class la,apela. for me, senang,bace je n call my gynae mintka advices. i memang fully utilized my gynae. sikit2 call je dia.hahahahaa. 

mase gi check caracked&bleeding nips kt clinic, Dr kt clinic tu (not my gynae) asked:

"we got injection to reduce milk if you want?"

me: "nope.i dont want "

Dr: "then you have to bear with the pain"

me: "xpelah Doc, i deliver my baby manually, without epidural, i feel the pain. setakat sakit ni berape percent sgtla Doc"

seriously, nak suruh kurangkan susu? xpela.tq. ill' find other solution. =)
ok i stop here for this entry.....will continue in "breastfeeding story part two" if sumbat semua dekat sini, ade org pening bace panjang2 sgt...hehehe. taa peeps =)

mariiiii menggemokkssss!

on things yg "dah lapuk dek hujan, dah lekang dek panas".

ok, flipping back memories bout before my married life. been quite active yo.yes, my work required me to stay in the office untill late night BUT i never consider it as something which stopped me from doing something else eg:socializing with me frens, gym-ing, playing squash, jamming session and many other things.seriously if stay kt office,pergi balik, pergi balik boleh membuncitkan perut kot.better do sumthing which could ease a bit rase-rase tension tu kan? kan?
so below were my activities semase masih anak dareeeee.yeeehaw!haha.

Gymgoer:

actually memang selalu gi gym since mula2 kerja.well u know to tone up the body n mengecilkan part-part mane yg harus dikecilkan or errrr...membersarkan part mane yg harus dibesarkan. eh ade ke? =P
normally,i'll be going early in the morning.somewhere nearby office.took celebrity fitness platinum.so can go everywhere.if pergi pagi2 (yes, pakse diri bagai nak rak bukak mate kol 6,ouh saye kagum dgn diri sendiri).then terus drive ke kl gi gym, then mandi n pi office. if petang,will be going to midvalley.memang menarikkk.selain dr tujuan2 kesihatan, pergi ke gym juga ialah kerana mahu mencuci mate.if x cuci mate,cemane mate nak bersihkan? =P so sile cuci mate anda melihat abang-abang body, ouh my.... sixpacks occcayyy!handsome2 belaka.pheeewitttt (ok,ini xtvt bfore kawen,setelah kawen gi gym tutup mate).eh?haha.

pole dance class:

ini memang tabiat luar biase saye kerana at 1st pergi dance class,then mcm nak lg mencabar gi pole dance class.it was hard in d'beginning but lame2 ok.memang niat di hati nak ade pole kt rumah, siap nk buat show kat hubby.buuutttttt xkesampaian, pasal pas kawen terus stop.hish rugi2.if not,still bley maen2 dgn mane tiang2 yg ade.boleh pnajat2 kesane sini.mesti Azriff kagum.muahahahaha.

guitar:

gile guitar since zaman sekolah.bnyk kali kene beli pasal jahanam,tali putus bagai.then ade la gi jamming pas kerja n lepak2 ngn member2.sukeeeee sangat tengok mamat2 men guitar.tp since laki i xreti maen,make guitar saye terletak di dlm store.sungguh kasihaaaannnnn.

sila perhatikan guitar mcm nak dibalut tikar.ini keadaan dalma store.sekian.

foreign language:

dulu2 ms kt secondary school, ade srg mamat ni (tgk kt tv) dia polis,tp dia belajar bnyk bahase.so mcm jadi idola kejap. ingat nak jd terror in many languages jugak,tapi apekan daye selalu xsempat after work nk gi class2 bahase (eh melepak ngn kengkawan sempat pulak kan?).mase dulu kt sekolah belajar arabic, jgn tanye dah ape maksud,semua lupa.arabic pon selalu skip class.haha. then uni belajar german language, perggghhh....susah giler ok,budget nak dok german,tp ntah ttahun bile.skrg sudah lupe ape yg dipelajari adelah. then mase kerja belajar mandarin.mcm poyo jap gi class, jap x gi,so ntah ape2 jadinye.langsung lupe skrg.wo ai ni. taulaaa.hahahaha.

ho-ho ini belajar bahase arab mase kecik2.muahaha. mandarin cert tak dapat ditemuai,di bawah katil dekat kampung maybe.sigh.

swimming:

ini kira daily xtvt mase dok kt rumah (dulu stay kt kondo kt keramat) maka sangattlaaa suka swimming.nyum nyum nyummmmmm.

diving&snorkeling:

ni lagila berhabuk, even slb pon ade buat.join sekali je kot.sbab manjang time kene nak gi ade je bende2 hal menyibuk,deadline la,client meetingla, deting time la.eh? pernah few times gi diving dgn member2.start kerja mmg slow.adoi!
but snorkeling memang quite often la,asal gi holiday kt pulau confirm akan pergi snorkeling.heheehe.

how to survive long distance relationship (LDR)

for those who are in a LDR and managed to survive successfully so far,i wish you: congratulations.
for me who have been years (ckp mcm lameee giler,padahal its just 4years baru=P) in LDR and can attests : it was hard in the beginning but as time passes by, im getting used to it and Alhamdulillah im going through this calmly and patiently and become more understanding on how to make things work for both sides.makin lame makin pro bak kate org tua2=P

ok, below are my tips actually more to my opinion on how to survive in LDR. if saudara saudari sekalian got extra tips, u r most welcome to add here and there and share with me=)

so, i think first and foremost as usual, UNDERSTANDING:which is the most important part.

understand ur partner's job/situation:

bila dah jauh2 tu,kenela faham2 situations org dekat sana.eg: he/she is there for study, work etc.
mostly because of those 2 right? so, list down priority students and employees of certain companies.
eg: dia ade mase 24hrs ke nak mengadap lappie,in short nak mengadap fb,ym berchatting dgn ko srgje, mcm xde kerja laen nak buat. then xpayahla yg ko pon mengade2 nak ngadap lappie je 24jam tungggu dia online. bawak2la buat kerja laen.eg: memasak,buat tocang rambut,ketip kuku....etc etc...
actually part ni was hard in the beginning, mase kt office pon dulu2 i online psl tunggu si dia online and chat with me.end up both online tp xsempat bertegur sape or borak sepatah dua psl xmenyempat siapkan kerja.macammm hampeh!

getting to know your partner

yela kan zaman2 mase mula2 nak bercinta and in LDR plak confirm u ols memang nak full attention, rase nak dia spend time to chat with u or talk to u on d'phone whole day (ni mostly ladiesla), but pleasela understand ur partner's routine, habit and tabiat! sebab as for certain males yg xberape nak sensitive eg: my hubby, my hubby, my hubby, dr mula2 zmn bercinta mmg jenis bukan bercinta mcm nak rak.meaning dia kerja on shift kt offshore nun for 12 hrs straight, then 12hrs la d'other time nak tidoq,makan,lepak wif frens atas kapal,basuh bj bagai. so aftr work mmg he'll on his ym but xla ngadap je nak chat ngn i.kdg2 tgh chat dia, mcm dia diam skejap,tyn gi mane.ckp gi gym.ek eleh bgtaula siang2 kan? xpon, bc paper online.wahhhhh,geram seyyy i dok ngadap laptop ni mcm nak msk dlm lappie die bley bc online paper.at 1st mmg susah gakla (actually xla susah sgt if krg dpt boyfie yg type dia xbc paper, xgi gym, xlepak ngn kawan2,dunia dia ialah work n u.so memang heavenla u.pas keje je mesti dia ngadap u sampai tertido atas lappie. and org2 camni mostly perot buncit.hahahhaa.so, better my boyfie going to d'gymla and socialize wf his friend.saye rela.kekekee.give him boy time la jugak kan.so silalah fahami ape yg partner anda suka and tak. but the most important thing is toleransi.waahhhh, toleransi tuuuu.hehe. if krg tak bley accept and mmg very clingy xbley accept ur partner's life dekat sane mmg susahla.it somehow can add a whole lot of stress to your already strained couplehood. so chill-chill saja.

DO NOT COMPARE YOUR PARTNER/RELATIONSHIP WITH OTHERS

ok, this part kene stress kan cket because u will always surrounded with friends yg ala-ala sedang bercinta jugak.so nanti mmg u'll always face situations like:

situasi satu:
"td kereta i rosak, kamal dtg tolong repair u,sweet kan, dia dr penang tros turun kl tu nk betolkan tyre i yg rosak punye pasal"

padahal yg u ols plak kenela terhegeh2 tukar tyre sendiri, or else call AAM ke ape, or worst dok situ srg2 berjam2 sementare tunggu rescue.hahaha.
so,silela ade mental yg kuat and make preparation dulu for few things. tak payah compare, ckp dlm hati biarla, boyfie dia dekat,selalu ade dgn dia,romantic lg terus turun dr penang tinggalkan sup hameed yg sedap tu semata2 nk tolong dtg tgk kereta ko rosak, padahal dtg2 tu call mechanic je keja dia, tu bley buat sendiri kot

so tak payah pk sangat, things happen and find ways to solve it.dont blame situations especially ur LDR. like me i mmg know how to tukar tyr kereta since bwk satria kt ukm dulu, bcoz i know i srg2 kt kl,and xsuka if kene susahkan boyfie bab ni.ouh i mmg ade 1 perangai yg bile susah2 i xsuke call boyfie dulu, i suke call my bestfriend .yerp a guy ms kt ukm.so mcm tula, silela belajar few things untuk survive.tukar try bukan susah sgt.tapiii skrgni i rs kene take time la if nk suruh i tukar tyre sbab ms kerja terus beli kereta yg  ade tyre RFT( run flat tyre).hahahah.so,bab2 tukar mmg dah lame xberlaku. RFT if ade symbol pancit kt kereta bley drive lg dlm 100km cmtu. so lalalalalala.heheheh. takpela, jgn nak mengada2 sgt,make it as ur own knowledge, guys will find the woman with brain is HOT!heh! dulu mase i dgn hubby deting detong i la yg ajar dia nk tukar tyre, tolong dia pilih rim tyre, hubby i dulu mmg jenis tk give a dam sgt psl baru2 kerja n baru dpt kete,so advantage kepada sy disitu=P

situasi dua:

"ouh my, boyfie hanna giler romantic and cool, mase birthday dia ,boyfie dia dtg senyap2 dkt her house,bwk bunga and then teros bawak shopping you.sekali handbag chanel boyfie die zass utk dia!"

takpe, situasi ini memang akan membuatkan u ols rase nak menitik-nitik-nitik air mata sbab rase besh la kan if ade surprise cmtu (eh ke besh pasal ade part chanel disitu?).hahaha. so, silelah jgn mengharapkan situasi2 seperti ini berlaku.be realistic la cket. cemaneka boyfie anda nk dtg tiba-tiba wat surprise dpn rumah on ur bithday sedangkan u ols sedia maklum dia jauh nun di perantauan.so,jangan nak pening2kan diri nak2 bg i yg mmg tau schedule boyfie now hubby psl kerja secompany ni.so redha jela dgn "happy birthday sayang" -kat tepon or paling sadis kt screen ym je.haha.ape ade hal.gua tough "sile ckp kt diri sendiri berulang kali".hahahah.

situasi tiga:

"i pg td si zack hantar gi kerja, lunch nanti dgn dia, balik dia ambil, malam lepak2 kat rasta dgn dia n kawan2 dia"

ini clingy tahap serious!dr pg smpai petang semuala nak bersama.so,sila abaikan jika ade kawan2 anda begitu.being clingy bukan care hidup anda.give each other some space and jgn compare dgn org laen.maybe mereka selesa dgn care begitu tp anda tak mungkin face the same situation.maka redha la.tak semua org same.takpe berjauhan dulu skrg,insyaAllah if panjang umur murah rezeki, hari tua dapat bersama-sama.


share the burden

part ni like krg kadang2 share la wif partner krg betapa rindunya, sayangnya krg kt dia but sometimes sedih jugak pasal anda berdua thousands miles away jauhnya.sobs sobs. maka beruntunglah anda if dpt partner yg "i jugak rindu u,sayang u ,kalaula bukan pasla kerja/study ,lautan pacific,atlantic,lautan nil ni i redah semata2 nak bersama dgn sayang yg comel,cun,hot dsb". menangis kegembiraan la anda dpt boyfie yg romantic tahap gaban cmtu, boyfie i yg merangkap hubby i skrg ni,ms dolu-dolu if i ckp cmtu die ckp "alaaa,sekejap je bukan lame, ramai lg org laen camni,ok je,lame2 biasela tu". so sile hantukkan kepala anda ke dinding dgn harapan dpt trus melupakan tentang part dia yg tak berapa nak romantic tu.in short, redha jelaaa.haha. tapi sekali sekala ckp la gak kat dia kan,dia bukannya takde perasaan.actually dia kat sane pon serabut gak,nak gak balik rumah jumpa mak ayah,u ols and member2 dia,tp nak buat cemaneka if dh situasi kerja mmg jauh.

make your time "together" fun

Talking with your partner on the phone is precious time together for you. Ensure you do your bit to make it a fun call. cakap bende yg lalalalala.jgnla everyday call mengadu problem kerja, family problem, and segala problem yg ade.sometimes drg nak offload their work problem for a day ke nak talk sumthing fun n chill2 je.so, tak payah nak asyik2 every call remind both of u psl how hard to survive in LDR, or else asyik nangis2 "i rindu u, i rindu u,i rindu u".so ur partner serabut kot nanti.cerita bende yg fun, if let say ade yg tak puas hati ,tunggu dia balik, dh jumpa baru ckp (yes,i always do that) sbab tak nak burden ur partner mase jauh2.kadang2 tunggu dia balik,sekali dia dh blk tgk muka dia,langsung tak jadi ckp sbab alamakkk muke seposennn arrr balik dr jauh,cute jugak.takpela,lupekanlaa part dia ckp perut aku buncit dr dia ms kat phone haritu.hahaha.ini contoh. perut saye tak buncit ok! wekkkk. hahaha.

dealing with loneliness

get urself busy with something else people! like ur work, study, or hang out more often with ur friends or family. like for me mmg dulu balik kerja lambat giler, lepak2 with friends,since family jauh so pejam celik-pejam celik taddaaaa tetibe sampai time boyfie now hubby balik.kan kan?yes i understand missing ur partner is sometimes the hardest part of all in a LDR. When the phone’s gone down, or you haven’t been able to speak for a few days how do you deal with the loneliness that can sometimes creep up on you. memang serious kadang2 sbab kapal punye satellite out of prospect la apela.so, takpela,redha je.deal with it. i dulu mase bercinta lg besh, boyfie now hubby tu call seminggu skali, dh tunang baru 2-3hari skali,dha kawen 2kali sehari,dh ade anak baru everyday weh!ini fakta!korang boley survive boyfie call seminggu skali je?conversation yg len menerusi email or chat saje.saye boleh sebab saye a strong person.(sile ckp kt diri anda berkali-kai).haha.insyaAllah boleh.i pon bkn yg type mengada2 sgt, if dia nak call seminggu skali biarla, mls nak pk sgt.lgpon masa mula-mula mmgla serious tp xsure bley survive ke tak,lame-lame "alah bisa,tegal biase" bak kate org german.chill je la.hehehe.ouh n i dulu mmg sentiase membusykan diri dgn gi gym after work, join pole dance class, lepak with friends, maen squasy  and macam2la to kill the loneliness.kene la tough sikit dah ini jalan yg dipilih.memang selalu ckp dkt diri sendiri.

Appreciate small things

bila dah jauh2 tu kan apela sgt bende boleh buat kan?so, make small things count peeps!like bila u bgn pagi,dia dh ym u ckp "morning sunshine". so sile pk,ouh dia bgn pagi2 dh ingat aku. or else ms dia call u when: let say mom u sakit ke,kucing tergeliat kaki, die terus call sbab tau u sedih n try to calm u down ms dlm kejauhan tu.sile appreciate.jgn ckp "i really hope u were here with me ms kucing i jatuh tadi, i sedih,nape u takde sini.nape?nape?nape?" wahhhh.serabot paleotak partner anda camni.sebenarnye percayelah lelaki rase mcm loser giler bile xdpt buat anything for girlfren/wifey dia yg tgh sdey especially time jauh2 camtu. maka sila appreciate.silalah berusaha!hehe

TRUST YOUR PARTNER

ok,bende2 mcm ni memang payah nak decsribe pasal mase dah jauh2 tu,mula lah kepala pusing pk bukan-bukan.bende yg takde diada-adakan. happen to me few times pon,hehe.cudnt help myself sometimes.but over time kite belajarla kan utk percaye dkt org.at first memang susah,lama2 insyaAllah ok. dan berdoalah.itu saje yang mampu time jauh2 tu. and u ols pula sile jgn nak create scene like

"u tau tak,td i gi mkn kt yong tau fu ampang, ade srg mamat bg fon no,die ckp i cun"

"td boyfie si hajar ckp i cantik,die pandang i semacamla u"

"dkt office i ramai lelaki asyik bg i bunga, call i everyday,hish geramla i"

tak payahla buat bende2 mcm tu sbab nak attention frm ur partner yg jauh tu.tok sah la menyerabutkan kepala dia.1st thing dia pilih anda sbab dia tau anda comel dah. tk payah nak ulang 40ribu kali kot untuk menghighlight yg anda comel untuk dia sentiase beringat2 supaya anda x terlepas ke tgn org laen. and tak payah nak buat dia jealous adn sometimes bende2 mcmtu boleh lead to something yg kita takmo eg: ur partner tak trust u or else rasekan yg dia jauh,ramai org nak kat u,maka u better go to them.hahaha.time ni padan muke anda.sbab ur partner dh surrender.tula ,sape suruh mengade2?=p

okla, above tips memang ape yg share dkt u ols la kan.if got anything, jangan segan2 tambah!=)

update: got 1 more thing i guess.important ni.

Boolayan with other people assumptions

part ni mmg la kadang2 kite kene consider ape org ckp la kan.tp xyah la percaye lebih2 sangat.check sendiri.jgn percaye ckp org melulu n jgn pulak percaye ur partner 200%.everything kene investigate dulu. like mine, org selalu ckp "atas kapal tu bahaye weh, ade pompuan ramai,then drg bile balik darat terus gian pompuan,book ke hotel teros".

like hello, macamla aku tak pernah pergi offshore.tak payah nak ckp bende pelik2.got this 1 fler ni,dia dahla xpernah kerja offshore in fact xpernah kerja oil and gas pon tetibe ckp kt u "i know atas kapal,monthly drg supplier perempuan,dtg via chopper ke kapal,beshla org2 kapal".

well, hello ape kejadah company nak supply pompuan?ini bukan pekerjaan suak-suka,ini kerja 12jam busuk2 atas kapal bersihkan barnacles (uweeekkk), dlm coverall pergi back deck kerja poloh2,pastu offshift time nak tido,lepak,makan tgk dvd ,gym-ing or maen ping pong bang oi. i pon pernah gi offshore.yg ramai ialah lelaki,bukan pompuan. lawak giler bile org luar judge.siap ckp blk teros check in hotel.eh,i ade itenerary laki i laaaa dr die keluar kapal naik chopper,naik 2-3flights baru smpai rumah,semua ade.sent by company lg.nak melencong apenye.and if terdapat keraguan like certain time got cases yg hubby takley call in certain countries, and flight die have to reschedule psl tertinggal chopper bagai, i ade direct contact with company's coordinator utk check.org2 yg hati busuk camni jgn dilayan sbab memang xberpekdah. dia boyfie/laki ko,maka ko je yg paham kerja dia.and jgn pening2 kepala nak percaya org ckp bende karut2.lainla if kerja rig,let say kt vietnam,then seminggu turun rig drg lepak2 kt town itu ade possibility la.ini laki gue kerja kapal ok.KAPAL. maka if time port call pon kejap je naik darat and fyi, sgtla jarang nk stranded kt shore lame giler.if stranded lebih 3hari meh sini i fly brasil,besh gak jalan2 gi ipanema lepak2 kt beach dia.ahhhhhhhh (mcm besh nak suggest ni kt hubby for next anniversary.eh melalut=P) .

ok, peeps,daaaaaaaa

past and present....

ok, fine.

am feeling depressed/sad all of a sudden!why ouh why? maybe i can whatt??? blame the hormones!yes!haha.kesian jadi hormon asyik kene blame.

ok,come to think of pimple, ill give huge-huge sigh to all the pimples on me face! seriously. if la pimples2 ni bley ckp kt diri mereka "eh biarla kasi can muka minah ni licin setahun" confirm i buat kenduri=P like seriously!

tried sooo many products from cheap to expensive ones but still no changes. dulu2 mase anak dareeeeee...anak dareee ok, pimples jarang nak singgah2 kt muka psl makan hormone pills Dr ting yg famous tu. his clinic situated at jalan imbi. but since after kawen ,takkan pulak nak makan hormone pills nanti takut xdpt baby. ni dah dpt baby, takot makan pills psl nak breastfeed baby,takot effect ke ape (eh xcheck plak with docs kan?bley ke tak ek?. then next year tak bley jugak amek pills because rase-rase mcm nak beranak lg (eh seriously kerja beranak je ke kau?) my frens always ask me that.so bilenye kulit nak smooth like a baby'?haha. well,different org differentla planningnye kan.insyaAllah if ade rezeki =). so godek2 balik pics lame2, dapatla pics time muka tak berape nak ade pimples like skrg, pic skrg krg tak pyahla tgk, sebab baik post pics Azriff kot dr diri sendiri.wuwuwu.

                                             ini masa dating!eh miss that long wavy hair!

inside the cable car.langkawi. zaman2 bercinta.

ok,pics ni mmg sangat sukeeee sbab menampakkan ciri2 kayuan pada seorang yg tak ayu.haha *eh prasan*

1st time got prezzie frm boyfie (now hubby).sweet giler ok.auuwwww=P

berposing ngn "coach" sbab sepanjang kerja xrase nk beli pon,rase membaziq!tp bile boyfie(now hubby) belikan senyum sampai telinge. this time i was 24.wahh muda kan? kan? haha

bab products pulak mcm2 dah try, dr yg made in malaysia, Japan,US bagai.mcm hampeh semua xjadi. *ini fakta seidh sila nangis beramai2*. sobs. products yg i dh try:

1) felissa cosmetics -ok jugak actually product ni pakai ms zaman2 study but the peeling part was too agressive.sakit ok.so stop mase kerja.

2) alken -langsung tak ok!

3) olay - tidak memberikan kesan langsung!

4) tia emilia - ok jugak but after 6 mos dah immune n not working at all.


5) SK2 -pffft!hate this.u buy expnsive products and it was just not match with ur skin type.the pitera was like triggered the pimples to come out more often then it should be!saddddd.


6) took new york skin solutions treatment. it was like everytime pergi ad eje bende kene beli n muka tak ok2 jugak.the heck kan? so, memang benci giler,now just pergi for normal facial je since dah byr beribu2 for the treatment kan.wasted!

well,if u u n u got any suggestions on how to get perfect flawless skin, please do not hesitate to share with me.am dying to get flawless skin.pretty please =) thank youuuuuuu.

tips to handle baby on a long haul flight

hi, hi, hi

im no pro, but would like 2share few tips -handling baby on a long haul flight. yerp, we went to UK last and that was like a "wow, we meet again london and scotland aftr 3years, with my baby this time.how time flies!"..how was london&scotland?will make my blog lenghty n told ya bout the trip in the next entry. now lets go for the tips!=) as i said, im no pro,please help if you have additional advices or tips =)

1) try to avoid a super duper long haul flight like more than 3 hrs. for us, actually flight to Heathrow for 12hrs, then to aberdeen around 1hr.so total 13hrs.but we stopped over in dubai,so we took 6+6+1 hours flight. phew!

2) make sure (as usual) baby foods, breastmilks or formula milk, plain water are in the baby bag all the time. yes in flight they can served u with the milk and plain water,this one is in case baby lapar kat terminal ke kan. for me i didnt bring much EBM this time just bg supply on demand je.bwk EBM just few je.maleh.haha.

3) ok, during landing and take off try breastfeed baby or let baby chew something or give baby drinks ke, it'd help to relive baby's ear pressure during take-off and landing and for Azriff this time i didnt brest feed him, its either this is his 2nd time in flight experience or because of the pilot was smart enough in making smooth landing and take off,which the pressure gradually chaged during take off and landing,not changed drastically which can course worse ear pressure's effect.auch!


4) hug&play with ur baby during take off and landing.calm him down if he cries.

 

5) yes, just bear with the 10kgs baby and pagku him sepanjang dia tidur.zzzzz.kebas tangan ok!few ppl asked me y i didnt take extra seat. i) because its gonna be normal price like my tix, membaziq! haha. ii) because Azriff still cant seat properly, nanti takut effect backbone dia, he still needs car seat bile naik kereta, tak boleh just pakai seat belt je.the possibility for him utk gelincir turun is tooo high!hehe. iii) actually we thought he still can sleeps in the bassinet.but obviously NO!he's longer than bassinet.so how!haha.

6)     makan time!

7) let him play on the floor, most babies dont like to be carried all the time, they need time for themselves, they want to play with their toys or something.just let em free for a while. but be careful la kan, jgn pulak biar je baby lepas terus dlm flight,silap2 sampai kt kokpit, terkejut pilot.hahhaa.

8) ok, so after few minutes playing on the floor, he bored already, now he wants to go panjat2 and play with daddy.obviously nak main ape yg daddy pakai kt telinga tu (earphone)

9) ok,he wanted to play with the remote.its his new toy for now!

10) ok,nak tgk movie pulak!

11) ok,makannnnnnngggg lagi! yes azriff eats a lotttttt.no wonder more than 10kgs now!

12) ok nak maen dkt bawah! biar aje!

13) so, we are enjoying our in flight dinner and azriff's playing with his toys joyously!

14) ok, seat belt what? thish ish mys toyyysssshhhh!

hope tips above will help u guys a bit la kan=) for babies yg menanigs je in flight, i seriously do not know what to do since Azriff dia auper duper happy if berjalan, if meragam pon a little bit, not much.nangis sikit2 sbab lapar or nak tukar toys or to change environment dia nak maen. tu je la. Alhamdulillah. if got situations like baby nangis all the time, maybe because baby still tka biase with new environment,take time for baby to adapt with new situation, kene try slowly and cuba bace ayat kursi, insyaAllah will be ok=)

till then, taaaaa.

ok,this is cool.want to know ur no? if korang nak tau korang no brape dlm dunia ni,maka silalah ke website and check.

The world at seven billion

As the world population reaches seven billion people, the BBC's Mike Gallagher asks whether efforts to control population have been, as some critics claim, a form of authoritarian control over the world's poorest citizens.

my no is:

4,815,819,539

hubby's no is:

4,722,606,029

Azriff's no is:

6,943,746,214

ok,this no might be wrong la kan.the chances to be right is tooo low since this just based on assumption. plus this for registered populations only, how bout those who are unregistered? but takpela, just for fun!

p/s:HRC didnt pay me a single cent pon,awat aku pi iklan tshirt drg?hahaha

the P.A.C.I.F.I.E.R

heh,

when it comes to this topic,many of u will say no to the P.

because maybe some of u takot ur kids gonna have protruding teeth or double teeth ke ape kan.

but for us, we dont mind,no la dont mind bout the "jongang" part.

but our parents told us, "korang dulu hisap puting smpai besar,tak jongang pon".weeeee.

so,Alhamdulillah we have beautiful straight teeth.ngeeeeee.hahahaa*terpuji diri sendiri*

both of us memang takyah pakai braces ke ape.so, what we think is,if keturunan xjongang,

insyaAllah tak "J".wahhh,,dat simple maaa?hehe.

actually malas nak lyn,as i said,ms dlm pantang hafto amek exam bagai,so mmg nak senang je...baby nangis,bg puting.but mase baby tido,tarik balik puting tu.dats d'secret of takmo bg baby "J" kot (thats what my MIL told me la,scientific proven?dunno.haha).

plus, when Azriff drinks his milk (using bottle).sumtime he falls asleep while drinking, dah bgn,tepuk2 dia,then dia nak lg susu.about 1oz then tido blk,takmo kejut dia.o just msk puting,make sure he sucks the pacifier so that i know yg dia tak simpan air dlm mulut.(p/s:this situation depends ok,if baby already drink bout 3-5oz,silela tepuk.im talking bout when he drinks very little amount je,yg sumbat puting.malas kejut dia.hehe).

another 1 thing psl i xsuke sgt die melekap kat big BB.serious xsuke.nanti susah nk buat kerja, and another 1 thing bcoz i paaaaliiingggggg TAK sukaaaaaa if baby nangis lame2.if only me.hubby n Azriff at home xpe,but if when the times yg we going out or travelling,memang i tka boleh dgr baby nangis dpn org ramai.annoying giler.bcoz, i memang tak suke dgr baby nangis .rase mcm naks ound mak dia je. (jahat x?dulu xde anak xtau,skrg dh ade anak baru tau,wuwu.) but Alhamdulillah Azriff xde suka sgt nangis.

ouh got 1 time when we were traveling in HK, azriff felt uncomfy while we were queuing and waiting for train to go to The Peak.so got lots of people in front of us,behind,left,right.ouh panas hati i. hubby plak slowje dia nak keluarkan pacifier n bottle susu.i ngamok ok.hubby mmg tak kisah if baby nangis, but i saaaaaangattttt kisah.wwuwuwuuw.smpai hubby sound "biasela tu syg if baby nangis,semua org phm". ouh and mase naik flight pon,ill make sure Azriff dok diam and tido.if menangis dlm flight memang horror la.whenever im travelling,bende paling i tak suke,baby nangis dlm flight.so ill make sure my baby tak nangis dlm flight.hehe.but Ahamdulillah,Azriff is a good boy and if nangis pon,sumbat the P or bIg BB.ngeeee.thats 1 of the benefit of breastfeed baby kan?besh!ape2 pon,sumbatttt aje!

Azriff pulak d'type yg memang when he's asleep,automatically dia luihkan pacifier dia.

so a bit easy for us to monitor him. dont la 24/7 sumbatkan baby pacifier kan.not good la.

actually our Dr pon advice no need pacifier,memang got potential bley "J" and double teeth.

so,thats y monitor jugak.hehe.memang scientifically proven as Dr said.so,dgr jela ckp doc.

tetibe terpk if la i tak pakai pacifier dulu,confirm gigi lg cun dari ni...haha. eh terperasan lagi.grrrrrr! =P

today,Azriff already 4months,he doesnt need pacifier anymore.terus dia takmo dah if bagi.easy right?sangat sukeeeeee.sekejap je die pakai the P =) .but everytime jalan2 bawak jugak,takot tetibe die melalak.pergghhh!jatuh reputasi.hahaahaha.

nitey nite peeps =)
