pumping gadgets

Mula mula masa preggy, we went to the parenting expo in Midval dgn niat nak grab breast pump. We came across Kak Farah, Sarakids booth at that time. Met her in person to get a personal touch & pep talk on BF and which gadget suits me the most. She convinced me to buy spectra for a starter as spectra punya function sikit-lebey-kurang juga dengan medela. At that time, my hub of cos la lagi setuju coz jimatt duit dia.. Beza spectra dgn medela banyakk tuhh! Ratus vs Ribu..

So yes, i started off with spectra. bought extra shield sbb nak double pumping. Started pumping my milk masa dlm pantang. Breast engorged. Ya Allah, Mashallah sakit nyer bengkak susu!! Mcm batu kerasnya.. pump xjalan, dpt 2 oz je. bengkak ttp bengkak. . haa ape lagi, meleleh air mata tau.. Anak minum pun dah, sampai tersedak2 flow laju sgt.. Suami tuam2 dgn kain panas.. sampai lah reda bengkak. Skang anak dah setahun sebulan dah mmg jarang la bengkak2 ni. *oh i miss!*

After confinement period, bermula la episode pumping di tempat kerja.
I was the first mother amongst others yg pump pada ketika itu.
Stock susu mmg dah build up masa dlm pantang, so pergi kerja pump adalah untuk mantainkan supply susu and to meet baby's daily demand. Sehari i akan pump 3kali. Keluar masuk bilik medical room/meeting room. Kalau rajin buat power pumping. selang 10 mts. Semua untuk anak, rezeki Allah dah bagi kan.. Jimat duit papa dia :) Anak sihat, poket pun tak koyak. Alhamdulillah

Start eying on FS medela bila hantar servis my beloved spectra, ive got no choice but to lend my sister's gadget, FS medela. .

Sekali dah rasa, JATUH CINTA lahh pulak!
Terus tiap bulan mengendeng kat hubby nak FS..
and akhirnya, anak dah berusia Setahun baru dapat rasa FS sendiri :)
Banyak advantage FS ni. Antaranya Freestyle lah kan. I pernah try aksi ber-FS sambil photostat docs dalam office *harus lah tutup mana yg patut kan*.. confirm, tak jatuh, tak meleleh.. lekat just nice to ur Breast..
Altho' its expensive, but worth every penny. Swear! Its a Good investment!

Now, kene pasang niat rajinkan diri bangun mlm untuk pump. Kene pump nak banyakkan supply susu.
Insyallah yakin boleh.

Okeh la..niat dah pasang.. harap dpt bgn mlm ni.
CaiyokkK!

2012

Ok, after so many days, months and years of not blogging.. here i am writting back again.

2012 Alhamdulillah have been good to me. Im blessed with a happy marriage, loving fmly, adorable kid and supportive friends. no words can describe my feelings. Definitely feel good :)

Anyways,

Damia is no longer a baby, she's a toddler now!

Our little-banyak-keletah princess, Damia Raihana turns 1 last month.
Sobs! time flies n shes no longer a baby, she's a toddler now..
She discovered that she has feet and cud walk, climb and run at 11 months old! Giving me heartache at times! shouting n screaming, begging her to stop then she'll give me her sweetest smile and pose.. aaaaa, terus cair..mama x jadi marah :)

Alhamdulillah, syukur masih dikurniakan rezeki susu. masih fully bf damia. she has never consumed any FM. Insyallah, planning to bf selama yg boleh..
Siapa cakap BF easy peasy? Sila mengaku! heheh..

lemme tell you, BF is never an easy task! ive learn the hard way ok!. Google and reading was my only mentor back then. i mmg nekad nak BF ever since i preggy 7 months, heret laa laki aku g class BF, antenatal..bagi dia aware of the need to BF anak dia ni haa.. and alhamdulillah, my hubby is supportive. Selalu balik balik kerja dlm kereta..

Hub: Beh banyak dpt tak harini
Me: Kurang few ounces la harini.. xcukup makan kot
Hub: Awk kene relax baru leh dpt let-down.
Me: tu lah kan.. (laki aku tau pasal let-down, oOokeh!)

and cerita pasal 'down' mmg lah ada. tak selalu 'up' pun production susu ni. adaa masa down ok.. tapi as a mother, dah down susu tu pandai pandai lah nak cover up balik kasi supply anak cukup for her daily consumption kan. at times i bgn mlm memerah (sgt jarang la tp) or power pumping in office together with my pumping buddy sambil bergossip! (cepat je letdown. kdg2 boler dpt 2-3 LD). Owh, n stock susu cair? It happened to me not ONCE ok, THREE times! omaigod. heart attack aku! rasa nak pingsan! suami, akak n kawan support..encourage i balik..n slowly i build up the stocks. Alhamdulillah, tak pernah tak cukup susu anak.. walaupon 3 kali kene incident fridge-tak-tutp-rapat-habis-cair-semua-susu-aku-nangis-darah-pun-tak-guna! hahahah phew! aku redha je, bukan rezeki Damia..Ok enuff on that.

On Life

Pretty much the same. Still in old company, insyallah in a process of getting a new job.
Old fren of mine, Echenta has open my eyes and mind to such a great opportunity. Premium Beautiful. Been wanting to invest in a good business to earn extra money and at the same get personal gain. Well, to those who know me wud say 'Natt, dah kurus kan, PB bendenye!'. Yes, mmg im back to my pre-pregnancy weight, thanks to BF.. tapi perut yg menggelebeh ni tak lah dapat dibendung ok. and plus there are some areas yg i need to tone up, also my back problem..Ouch ok! Ouch!. Nak sign up for gym? humrmm, tak payahlah.. facility gym kat rumah tu pun tak berusik. Will do one entry on PB nanti ye ;)

Anybody interested nak try on the corset or to know more on the business marketing, boleh je email me @miss_natra@yahoo.com

Till we meet again.

Salam.
