Hubs going outstation.

Hubs going outstation. 

I dont like it setiap kali hubs kena travel. Tapi sebab kerja kena la redha, always. Since I have to travel to work everyday, rasa malas na nak drive sorang sorang tempuh kereta pagi pagi tempuh jem petang petang. Hubs away for 3 days pulak tu (from Saturday til Monday). I always wish I can follow him to work ;) haha. which is impossible la kan.

Ni unplanning work trip. So we (actually me) dah ada planning on weekends. Saturday, his friends wedding dekat Tasik Permaisuri, Cheras. So dekat and plan nak pegi IKEA Cheras untuk beli baby cot and bedding set semua. And terus hanta balik rumah mama. And Ahad ada wedding at Dewan Perdana FELDA, sepupu kawin. Pagi2 da kene p rehearsal so surely Sunday tu pack. Lepas tu my SIL hanta whatsapp kata ada Pureen Warehouse sale dekat Glenmarie PULAK! HAHA. Terus txt hubs ajak pegi tapi DUKACITA.

So semua plan tak berjalan lancar. Sangat dependent dengan hubs kan. Dulu semua buat sendiri =.= *apa guna ada suami,KAN* Semua hasrat murni tertanam la since dia kene kerja. Jauh plak kene p Terengganu. But at least hes not driving. Risau kalau dia drive jauh jauh sebab hes too tired and exhausted dah nampaknya. 

So tukar plan and pick up Nana and duduk rumah aja lah. Biarlah Nana main PS and Online 24/7 while im cleaning the house.

Drafting Always

I ni ada habit suka draft post. Sebab tu kalau tgk tak berturutan langsung! Sorry. Thats why post expo dulu baru la the excitement nak p expo itself. Haha. 

Sorry!

Breastpump Shortlisted.

Brest Pump.

Bukan nak buat review yer. Belum beli lagi. Baru habis survey. So far dah boleh shortlist few brands. I wanted to buy before giving birth. So I decide. Baca review ada yang prefer beli lepas bersalin untuk tgk boleh produce susu atau tak but ada few blogs and nasihat from friends kata niat at first place. Kalau niat mmg nak tgk dulu; takut tgk je la. It depends kot? So decide untuk beli. 

7 months back; mmg da set dalam mind nak beli Madela FS. Review mmg hebat hebat belaka. Mmg siap siap kumpul duit monthly to buy it. Tapi bila da 7 months ni, rasa mcm eh; worth it tak beli mahal2 ni. So esok nak lah p try tgk harga kat fair. mesti la after less pun 1700 paling tidak. Dengan nak kene bayar deposit rumah bagai *so mimpi dulu lah* maybe takda rezeki. 

Lepas baca review online and from my friends and sister. Shortlist seperti berikut:

1. Madela FS (TGK HARGA DULU!)

2. Lacte Duet Double Pump (Price range 420-500)

Tu je. Tak payah banyak2. Senang sok.

Bila da bincang dengan husband. Dia sedih. He knew that I wanted Madela FS since forever. So dia suruh jugak I beli. Katanya long term investment. Tapi. Tulah. Sigh. Giving birth dengan private (SJMC pulak tu) belanja boleh tahan! Kena la save mana patut kan?

Lacte Duet Double Pump punya review tidak menghampakan. I think disadvantage dia adalah bulky sedikit and takda build in batery. Tapi ada USB cable and can be connected to powerbank, so still acceptable lah for me. And my bf pun pakai yang sama, so far dia kata worth buying it. 

-------update-------------
Dah balik dari Expo at Midvalley. Not much promo on BP unlike sblm ni ada pegi sekali mmg banyak promo. Lacte ada bukak booth tapi share dengan banyak item2 lain. Naik tanya pun susah. and the price pun mahal comparing ada satu kedai jual all brand of BP. Harga BP sahaja booth tu offer RM419. Tapi bila i google (tang tang tu jugak kat expo) actually boleh beli online/shops at cheaper price including free gift. On top kalau pegi kedai boleh siap try lagi. Kebetulan ada sales the same date expo dekat PumpOnTheGo. Tapi malangnya Im away to Penang and promo last on Monday. RM459 including free gift. I siap pm tanya boleh pakai promo for Monday; they say cannot so I takda la drop by their shop lagi. Just follow fb dorang and hope ada promo lagi! Haha.

Kenapa I tak beli BP sahaja at RM419? Sebab I think i still have to buy the other thing (inc dlm freegift) and the cost is actually higher. And bila I heard I can try the pump at the shop makes me thing, WHY NOT. After all, I can just survey it first and make sure husband beli masa I need it. I just have to decide which one!. 

Hope it help!

One day before the expo

Excited for tomorrow! Why? Tomorrow my baby will turn 7 months! (Alhamdulillah). So far perasaan takut nak bersalin tu takdala rasa sangat lagi. Excited for sure everytime the baby moves. Im amaze every moment it moves sampai husband pelik. (Its not your first time. I know. But he cannot feel it kan, so cmna la dia nak paham!) haha.

Anyhow, my preparation for my baby is not much. Like i said before, my mum tak bagi shopping until my baby reach 6 months haritu. But we decided untuk beli baju baju baby just incase the baby poops out earlier than the due date.

*alahai. Dugaan datang lagi. Will talk about it later*

Ok continue. So before this we manage untuk tahan nafsu not buying any baby things kan. Once we dapat green light from parents da start boleh beli..apa lagi......... rambang mata.

Well, obviously parents mana yang xnk the best for their kids lagi lagi first baby ni. =.=

we overspend. yes. we did. 

we bought so many baby wear. AT MOTHERCARE~ lalalaaa

At first excited la kan-boleh control lagi. Beli baby gear umur kecik2 satu, 3 months and plus and more! 

Around 2++ habis. (masa ni ada discount member and went to KLCC; but im not entitle)

(Nak jadi member kena spend RM600 above in 3 months period)

Second shopping lagi kat mothercare. Haha. Dont know why and how i got addicted to it. 

Beli baju lagi pulak tu! Bahaya bila termasuk kedai. This time kat Alamanda.

Niatnya saja nak tgk2. Lepas tu tergrab few baju lagi! Alahai. Sebab ada this cute rompers sesame streets. 

Habis lagi RM2++

Sekian. 

Lepas tu masa jalan-jalan kat Pavi cari birthday present. Ehem. Masuklah Mothercare (somehow I think bila preggy ni its all about the baby! Takpela mummy ni tak shopping pun)

This time nak tgk2 je (actually nak beli besen mandi budak tu sebab da tgk kat Sogo and Jusco harga sama je dengan Mothercare after sales dalam 1++) 

Bila masuk, alahai kecil pulak Mothercare ni. Tak mcm KLCC and Alamanda. 

Bila da masuk tu, mmg no turning back.

Tangan ni da gatal2 pegang baju shirts baby and jeans. Husband pulak dok cakap; you asik beli rompers je, cuma beli pair jeans or khakis with tshirt. And it makes me wonder. Ha ah la. Ada je jeans for baby age 3 to 6 months!

Alahai terbeli lagi. Habis another RM2++

AND OFFICIALLY JADI MEMBER MOTHERCARE *nanges*

One day p shopping with mama. Mama suruh KLCC masa lunch break, she want to teman me to buy barang baby. Katanya Isetan ada sales! Ok, ikut. Baru la gigih beli towel, face towel, booties, socks semua. Shopping ngn mama tak habis banyak pulak tak sampai RM150! Mama yang excited shopping untuk cucu dia belanja mcm2. Untung my baby! Tokma also shop for you!!

Thats about it. Tokma also belikan socks, and rompers and sleepwear. And topi and p H&M beli baju lagi!! Adoi.

So we kinda look forward for tomorrow sebab ada Baby Expo TCE at Midvalley. Kat situla nak beli bekung bagai, brestpump, pampers, and apa apa la yang ternampak. Including milk bottle. And besen ada jual x? Haha. 

TCE Baby Expo Midvalley.

TCE Baby Expo - What do I get?

It's Friday. Im on leave. (plan this since forever!) I have listed things to buy here in expo. Since most of the item mmg i decided untuk beli kat sini, i mmg proper plan how much to spend, what to buy, which shop to go. New experience. Around 10.00 am sampai dekat expo hall. Still tutup and ramainya orang queing nak masuk. Tips no 1: Make sure you are not alone (if ure pregnant 7 months like me). The crowd mmg sangat banyak and ada push2 sikit dengan vendor yang baru nak tolak trolley segala. Kena tgk kiri kanan. I mmg sorok belakang my husband untuk cover perut. Tip2 no 2: tak payahla nak que amik doorgift. Hehe original plan mmg nak amik doorgift and que takdala panjang mencanak still ok. Cuma freegift dia xda la something that I look forward kot? And mmg from their fb pun da bagitau apa yang kita dapat dlm doorgift bag. So, i let go.

Tips no 3: pls get yourself the floor plan. Kedai kat mana jual apa and promo/discount kat mana hall mana. Senang nak planning. First we masuk Avent (sebab ada promo 3 bottle for RM30). Tak banyak cuma ada less than 30 box. So I am among the first and i manage to grab 3 (sempat grab lebih, tapi biarlah bagi orang lain). 3 box =9 bottle (small size) and packaging bottle semua old version. (1 box for me, 1 box for my beloved aunty and another one for my old staff). Satisfied. RM90 gone. Que is so long and husband to the work.

Tips No 4: The more the merrier. Bring friends, siblings, spouse so they can que for you too. The que is so longgggg and sometimes the movement is very slow. Bring someone who is not interested to buy baby things so they can focus on you. HAHA. What we did was masa my hubs que untuk bayar Avents; i da pegi survey harga Lacte BP so bila dia habis bayar, im done surveying at least at 2 shops. And masa we go Pureen, hubs que for paying and i p carik barang kat Pureen, by the time i habis beli barang, dia pun tinggal la quarter the journey untuk bayar. And while he's paying for Pureen, I pegi que for TommeeTipee. Haaa. Get it? 

I dont know about this, but my sister kata beli sabun, shampoo semua dekat Pureen instead of Johnson&Johnson (I have no idea and im lazy to google it) So i just follow her advice. Didnt even stop and J&J and direct p Pureen. Mmg cheaper but not much. Normal beli mitten/booties adalah less RM1/2. So kalau beli banyak mmg untung. I get myself swaddle, bedung, barut, 3in1 top to toe, baby oil, lotion, rash cream, detergent, blanket, bedak apa lagi? Total around 150.

Next we go to small small booth yang jual baju baby. Mmg xnak beli any baju sebab da banyak. But I mmg nak cari baby's legging or pants yang cheap. So adalah one pants for RM5. And we buy 2, one small jeans that cost us only RM10 (MOTHERCARE price is RM90) and set baju (4 rompers, 3 socks, 2 mitten) for the price of RM30. Total of RM50. Bear in mind, since the set dalam box, we cannot feel the material. So im not really satisfied with it. Heh.

And TommeTipee booth paling banyak promo. And money spend like air there. Maybe because I mmg da tau the brand and the price. Almost all item sold here mmg ada detailed promo and jual kat Mothercare (thats why I know lah). So beli bottle susu anak punyalah banyak. baby set blue color TT bottle cost us RM120 like that (6 bottles pelbagai size). Botol susu kaca (I KNOW!! ni banyak sangat baca blog!) botol susu warna hijau design2. Haha. Pastu botol susu yang pegang2 tu satu (4m). So total ada 9 botol TT. =.= Lagi beli tempat mandi, tempat letak botol susu, diapers box JJ Cole, Bantal, Head support, Neck Support (hahahaha). Swaddle lagi. Tempat clip puting, set2 medical (hubs) , thermometer, sudu airplane (ni kerja hubs) , pinggan mangkuk (hubs too). Total of RM680. Amik kau. Ni kes rebut campak dalam beg pastu masa bayar baru like: eh ada amik ni ek? Haha.

Refer dekat list and tgk ohh, kene beli pampers. So Drypers mmg xbukak booth. Yang ada only MamyPoko, Pampers and PetPet. So while husband simpan semua barang dalam kereta, I pun que. SO NI PALING LAMA SEKALI I DONT KNOW WHY. Order da amik masa start que tapi xtau kenapa sangat lama. I grab MamyPoko Dry which cost RM124 for 3 pack. Amik size newborn 1, and S = 3. 

Itu je. Balik. Haha.

Mmg we ada survey katil anak and set, baby carrier and stroller. And baby punya bouncer. Tapi not so good offer. So we skip. Ingatlah, tak semua murah. Even I didnt buy my BP here sebab price sama dengan kat luar. Might as well i pegi kedai and try. Tak payah rebut. 

Remember, Tak semua murah. So beli yang mmg betul2 value for money sahaja ye!

Bye.

Dilema bersalin

25 Nov 2015: 8.42 am

Esok ada check up dekat SJMC. Hati berbelah bahagi taktau nak proceed ke tak deliver at sjmc. Original plan mmg takda aral melintang everything should be okay. Tapi lepas kena transfer ke Putrajaya, rasa reluctant pulak sebab banyak lagi duit nak kena pakai. Nak pindah rumah, settle down and buy furniture semua. At the same time, hubs da kena bayar downpayment rumah by stages. Semua at once. So hati berat je nak kene save duit mana yang perlu. 

Moving house is not easy work kan. Searching for another pun susah. Tapi i redha and tau everything happen for a reason. 

Actually ingat nak opt for another private hospital beside SJMC. Yang cheaper sikit which the cost takdala sampai 13k, tapi sebab utama: my parents mmg insist nak i bersalin sjmc; me and hubs nak la tunaikan. Ingat nak amiklah KPJ or UMRA or anything PUSRAWI ke apa apala yang cost us below 10k. Tapi, the Dr pulak mmg i da suka. Dr Noor Aini, shes very good and very detailed person which i really like. And now im already in 28 weeks rasa mcm too late to cari doctor and all. Plus i da mmg da start checkup at SJMC. 

But we both believe adalah rezeki tu dimana mana. Kan? Yang penting semuanya selamat, InsyaAllah. 

Dear Baby, you know how much we loves you? A lot! Be a good son, be a good Ummah. InsyaAllah, mama and papa will guide you.

Bila da reach third trimester ni, lain betul rasa movement baby dalam perut. Instead of kicking, rasa keras keras je baby dalam perut ummi ni. Not enough space yeh? Ure growing bigger ye baby? Grow healthily okay? 

Stage of buying barang baby da sampai final stage. Cewah. Alhamdulillah, tinggal baby cot and set aja. Yang lain tunggula ummi habis pantang ok? Bagi ummi kumpul duit dulu ok?

Me and my new place

Starting my week at new workplace. Love it here. Banyak facilities yang takda kat sini compared to previous work place such as no proper pantry (why pantry? because im planning to BF so i usha nak tgk ada fridge or not-NO) so i was thinking. How. Hehe. Next; I dont have a room unlike before. I just have a workstation and people can easily notice me - what am i doing or am i BF. Haha. Theres no surau to pray (they have one proper surau but i have to go down the lobby and walk to the library to another lobby and take lift down). That just it. Eh, parking. Yes, I still didnt get any parking lot so hubs kena pick and send me to work. 

Getting to office is so hard. We have to leave house before 7. But I can reach office before 7.30 am. (cool kan) Or else......... so kena bangun awal and day before we dah gosok baju siap siap prepare our bags and barang and bekal for the next day. Getting back home is even harder i tell u! Leaving the office at 6pm; I'll arrived home at 7.40pm (yes, the traffic is superly crazy) and we decided to leave office by 8pm so we managed to get home at 8.40 to 9.00pm. Less traffic and less hurting my butt. 

The environment here is totally different. Im amaze. The staff here; regardless subordinate or your upper level is doing their work most of the time. Yes; 2 years back im tired of doing things alone. (not so alone but most of them is enjoying and taking sweet time). unlike here, the bosses really doing their jobs with paperwork and meeting and presenting. And I just love them.

Knowing my organization, i think there's room for improvement. The money is not equally distributed. I am just being transfer but my owner is still the same. Back than, we are so "rich" and here everything is restricted. The amount of staff is also not properly distributed. The workload jangan cakap. 

Btw, since im new. I have little much time for myself. Never would I imagine its actually not so hard to relax and enjoy the moment. I have time to read articles and have time for myself and my baby. At least for now. Heeee. But top it all, I love my bos. She's my idol for now. I like people who knew what they were doing and good at it. She earn my respect the moment she speaks up. 

Update more later on my new job! Oh well, I got promoted. Thats why the transferring out.

Oh and yes, we are looking for a house to rent!
