• I should bitau midwives awal yg I plan to fully BF my baby. Nurin dulu, I x dpt the privilege, maybe sbb she was born kecik, 2.39kg. betul2 bwh skit kt borderline…utk newborn, 2.4 kg is considered as normal weight katenye. So bile lahir, I dpt pgang kejap, than she was taken away and I’ve been told she was given glukos ke ape, I x igt. Padahal rasenye boleh je terus BF kot. So this time, kena be more firm.
• Teruskan rutin memperdengar bacaan ayat2 Quran most of the time, especially masa dia tidur. Motifnye mostly utk biasakn baby utk boleh terus lena walau dlm keadaan ‘bising’. I ade baca dulu, biar baby tidur depan TV. But I rase, dr dia dengar yg bukan2 kt TV tu, baiklah dgr something yg bermanfaat…bermanfaat jugak utk mama, walau x dpt solat, dpt lah pahala dgr ayat Quran kan. N Alhamdulillah, Nurin skrg, ok je tidur walau org keliling berbual ke ape…tp kalau bunyi yg kuat ttbe tu, mmg terjaga jugaklah…mcm petir and such.
• Jangan mandikan baby yg baru lahir dgn sabun. Dulu x tau..beria mandikan bb dgn sabun pureen yogurt yg blueberry…mmg sedap bau…tp, rupenye tak elok eh? Not sure la sbb ni ke nurin ade eczema..sbb masa pregnantkn dia dulu, I suke sgt minum soya bean…ade jugak kata soya bean boleh wat bb prone having eczema…so kali ni, I mmg xmnum pon soya bean…tgk nnt camne, ade effect x..tp back tu kes sabun, I’ll try my best to convince mak jgn mandikan bb dgn sabun.
• Tentang pacifier. Nurin was given pacifier sekejap. Ini di luar kemahuan I. MIL yg beria pegi beli n tonyoh. I can still rmmbr how heartbroken I was when I first saw MIL came back with a pacifier. Dh la yg bukan orthodontic punye. Tp bile dh ade anak, n baca jugak pengalaman org, ade yg anaknye dok hisap jari smpai ke besar, utk kes cmni, daripada jari, mmg lebih baik dia hisap paci. So I cant really say Im against paci, tgk keadaan mcm mana…sbb nurin xde kes suka hisap jari yg overdose, mak bg paci sbb dia tgk nurin asik nk nyusu, which is perfectly fine to me, but not her. Tp bile dh nipple crack ke ape, I bersyukur jugak ade paci tu…huhuhu
• Tentang buai. Sama kes mcm paci, I dulu sgt x setuju bile mak beli buai…lagi2 bile masa nurin 4 bulan, terjadi kes buai jatuh. Bukan nurin jatuh buai. Tp tali yg menyangkut buai tu putus, maka nurin yg dlm buai, jatuh, n hanger yg sangkut kain buai tu mencalar bawah mata nurin. Betul2 bawah mata. Mmg berdarah…tapi, thou I may think that I don’t need the buai bile jaga nurin sbb she’s bf bb, I have to rmmbr that I’m working. Someone else yg akan jaga dia. N I have to be considerate. So Nurin mmg berbuai masa mak jaga up to 6 months, then disambung dgn BS smpai umur dia dlm 14 bln gitu…skrg, dia dh tak berbuai lg…Alhamdulillah, ok je…so I rase, it is ok utk ur bb tdo buai, tp jgn make it as a must. Kalau x, sile la angkut buai ke mana saja anda pergi.
• Never change ur bb’s bottle teats (if u plan to bf in long term). I rase this is one of the reason Nurin xde masalah direct feed or bottle feed. Smpai skrg I x penah lg upgrade teats dia… She’s still using TT bottle…eh…tp masa sethn lebih tu I ade jugak bg dia pakai MAM yg anti colic tu for few month…lelama, I yg rasa leceh sbb byk parts, n susu meleleh bile kite terbalikkan botol. Nurin mmg la suke nyepahkan susu…so tukar blk ke TT. Ni dia dh x bf, I wonder shud I change her teats? Ke x pyh?
• I love to swim. So kalau boleh I nk my kids pon layan je mama ajak swimming…Mcm Nurin dulu, dlm 4 months, I dh pelan2 ajar dia mandi air paip biasa…no heater or warm water…sbb mmg nk biasakan dia dgn air yg normal temp…Alhamdulillah, dia suke n easily adapt dgn water temp kt pool…
• On car seat…Nurin masih ok duduk dlm car seat kalau no other passenger. She knows that she has no choice. Tapi kalau abah yg drive, mmg mintak maaplah dia nk dok dlm car seat tu…we didn’t train her on that. Kekadang,bile nk keluar bertiga, I saja lengah2 masuk kete, so abah will secure her in her carseat, n dia pon ok je, then abah reverse the car, I pon tutup gate segala, once dia nmpak I masuk kete, maka meraung lah dia mintak klua dr carseat. Ceit.I shud’ve always harness her in her carseat, everytime we went out, sejak kecil lg. X kire berdua, atau beramai2, so that she’ll get used to it. But thinking back, mungkin dulu I rase leceh nk masuk n kluarkn dia dr carseat bile Im not driving, sbb I kn bf dia. So leceh ah bile nk bf…so this time ard, I shud try harder on car seat routine.
Mcm ade lagi…tp x igt dh…tp diingatkan, those are from my perspective…lain org lain caranye, and lain keberkesanannye… I pon bukan jenis yg obsess. Obsess bf ke, obsess amik/xamik vaksin ke etc..Neutral gitu…semua ponnk yg terbaik utk anak memsaing kn.. and if it fits u, doesn’t mean it fits others…x payah nk judgemental sgt..lek lek sudaaa…
