 I wonder before the inventing of breastpump, how baby consume breastmilk if mummy is away?

Btw, i never survey any breastpump until I feel engorge. That also I just simply buy the cheap but not so cheap item, that is Autumnz Hybrid, around RM200++. I have no choice that time because baby don’t want to latch and I need to pump out. Also my supply is quite low that time so i need to power pump to increase my yield. 

However, I experience nipple sore after pumping. Sometimes i just tahan coz dont want baby drink formula. After 2 weeks when baby successfully latch on me with no issue, my mum still nagged me to pump. That time i was very scare to pump, until I found out Lacte Omnia from Facebook Super Mom Duper Kids. 

The seller quickly point out that the Autumnz pump nipple size is too large for me. So she suggest Lacte Omnia because it has smaller nipple size.

Now I pump happily, but baby still dont want to drink from bottle 🤪

 The first thing that come across me when seeing this packaging is that it is too colourful and does not look professional. However, I came across some mum commented it is soft and has the same quality as Applecrumby. Plus I get it quite cheap, around RM0.30++ for a pieces, from Sunshine Square. 

Also it is quite light weight as other premium pampers does. If u ever carry Genki you will know how light is Diapex.

Let me try on my baby tomorrow and update here. She is 3 month old now.

FYI, Diapex seem to be a local product that produced in Nibong Tebal, Penang. Correction: the company name is Nibong Tebal It has siamese word on the package. Maybe the company also ship to Thailand.

-------------------------------------

Tried it yesterday. When she poo it leaked out twice. :-/ Maybe it is still small for my baby. I will update here time to time if I find Diapex is good to use when she grow up. 

Writing a review for Huggies as I tried all their pampers. 

Their production ranking should be like this: 

(1) Huggies NatureMade  - more premium and most expensive 

(2) Huggies Ultra Natural Soft - I like this, good value

(3) Huggies Dry - most cheap

My baby first pampers is Huggies Ultra Natural Soft and I still find it very useful to use at night as it can absorb very well and leave my baby bum dry. This is the brand I repeat order for the most. 

I don't like Huggies Dry as it caused rashes to my baby bum, when she wore only about 2-3 hours. I won't buy again. 

I thought Huggies NatureMade would be the most premium and most suitable for my baby. Furthermore it does not use chemical and chlorine to produce it. But it actually can't really absorb well, so I wear for my baby during the day only. I won't buy again after his finish as it is quite expensive. 

p/s: Look out for maxtec365 to buy cheap Huggies Ultra with free shipping from Shopee! I bought newborn and S size from them. They do not sell M size so I need to move to other seller. 

I successfully established breastfeeding at the end of my confinement. I thought baby will normally take from bottle easily as I became baby before, and I never see any baby reject bottle. To my surprise, my breastfeed baby reject bottle! 

My husband laughed at me that before this I cried during my confinement month because she don't want to drink from my breast, now I stressed up because she don't want to drink from bottle. :-/ 

I will write in chronology so it is easier to narrate. 

Week 5

At Week 5 when baby went to Klinik Kesihatan to check up I still feed her bottle. Pigeon wide neck SS size was used. 

Week 6 

Week 8 

Week 9 - 10

Week 11-12

Due to the surge in positive cases, I might have chance to work from home after my maternity leave. My baby constantly needs hug or need to me hug to sleep so I think a baby carrier might free my hand to WFH. 

Actually I bought a fake Baba Sling from Shopee when she reject to latch on me. But I never use it as it is so hard to use. I regretted. It cost me RM30++. 

When baby is 2.5 months, I try on Baba Sling again and posted to Facebook Group Malaysian Babywearing to troubleshoot. Many commented it is dangerous to carry baby like this: 

Due to the comments, I decided to look for some thing easy to wear. Many recommend soft structured carrier (SSC), some suggested ring sling (RS) in Facebook Group Malaysian Babywearing. I asked in TBAN also, a breastfeeding group, but the admin did not allow comment for my post, she asked me to contact Mummy Charmaine, who is an expert in babywearing. 

Actually I was quite scare that Mummy Charmaine will charge me huhu. But so far when I consult her she did not charge me yet. Mummy Charmaine has a company Unison CA, so she recommend her ring sling product as I told her my budget is around RM200+. I see many people also give good review in the Malaysian Babywearing Facebook Group for Maru Ring Sling. Eventually, I bought Maru Ring Sling from Shopee because it is RM20 cheaper than her online shop. It is authentic. 

Because I bought Maru RS from Shopee, I asked the shop to help me to troubleshoot. So far the shop is also very nice, very friendly to help me to troubleshoot. 

But while waiting for my Maru RS to come, Lazada pula has massive sales on baby items on 1 March! 

I had eyeing on Chicco Easyfit for a long time as I read that it is easy to fit. It is RM198 you know when the item is on sales. Quickly, I click on buy button without hesitation. 

But I recalled many people are using Tula and giving good , so I decided to search in Lazada too. To my surprise, a RM800++ retail price carrier, only sold at RM575! This is Tula Explorer Mesh which you can carry the baby facing front when baby is 6 months old. Quickly buy this as I so like the Sophia design and there are mesh. Mesh and non-mesh only different for RM15. I bought mesh so that baby wont get hot. And I return the Chicco Easyfit. Picture of me with Tula Explorer Mesh: 

Tula Explorer Non-Mesh version also has yellow mustard colour which I like. 

Actually CuddleMe is not a bad choice for SSC. It is produced by our neighbouring country, Indonesia. Also, there are Malaysia made SSC called Tugeda which cost around RM200++. I didn't buy because I dont like the design. It is too cartoon. 

Back to Tula Explorer, I think I probably get the cheapest price. I am so happy. Also, when I post photo to the seller, the seller very responsive and friendly to help me to troubleshoot. 

Reasons for me to buy baby carrier 

Overall, I am so happy with my two new carrier. I am so surprised I can spend about RM800 on carrier only.

(1) But I made excuse that I won't be getting stroller so it is okay for me to spend on carrier. 

(2) Also I am breastfeeding my baby so I can save on formula and I can use the money to buy carrier. 

(3) Also baby carrier can help me to breastfeeding in public without need to find nursing room, but I haven't try.

(4) Buy 2 so that when one is at laundry, I can use another one. 

(5) Baby is getting heavy, when I hug her I can use baby carrier

(6) I use my baby carrier to carry my baby to sleep to keep two of my hand handsfree. Just now I just carry baby in Tula SSC walking around the house when having my lunch. Life become so easy. Baby sleep after I had my lunch.
