lately kurang nafsu bercd... sejak syok 100% dispo masa europe trip...
bawak the premium dispos only...yg tahan lama... mamy poko and huggies merah tahan 10 jam tu...
lama gile baru aku tukar.. at least 6-8 jam... kenkadang terbabas 12 jam... amir tak bising pon.. no rash... syok dispo ni tak hilang2 lagi... (no lectures/komen please potpetpotpet on why not to use dispo for more than 3-4 hours here... chemicals in dispo la blablabla.... aku malas nak dengar, aku boleh google sendiri... im not a perfect mom... sometimes im a lazy mom....)

i think coz amir dah 2 kali sakit cirit2 muntah2 berlanjutan lepas that trip... (1 time before that trip)..
so setiap kali kena.. muntah... habis baju suar aku, baju suar amir and selimut and comforter and cadar and kain (ape jua jenis kain lah..yg digunakan nak lap muntah/cirit yg terbocor)... tak kuasa aku nak add on CD to that laundry mountain pile... aku takde maid utk buat semua keje rumah for me... tak boleh bersenang lenang goyang kaki sana sini...

pastu die plak suka berak pagi skang.. kul 6 pagi..
aku slalu CD nights and weekends.. so kul 6 pagi masih berCD... so pepagi dah nak kena handle CD.. malas aku... aku plak jenis tak suka biar taik dalam CD.. mesti nak kena rinse bagi ilang and masuk pail..

kena ilangkan penyakit ni... for the sake of the environment..
bak kata chikleen.. rase berdosa bila guna dispo hahah..
exactly! rase tu yang aku rase dulu... (skang dah pudar... kena carik balik)

I have 2 options... G-diapers... or Grobaby biosoakers...

ni kira pakai buang the mess aaa.. tapi pampers die disposable AND biodegradable...
mahal aaa kan.. tapi conscience aku eating me alive since I know how many disposable a child will wear through out his year before potty trained.. banyak gile.... imagine how many landfill area  that will fill...

nanti aku nak carik option lain... kot2 la ade...
pastu nak tanye akak tu.. nak tak die pakaikan CD modern.. takyah basuh walaupun berak.. cuma buang dlm wetbag saje...
if die agree.. I think the best brand would be lunatots... coz its velcro... sama cam dispo je nak pakai..

My Fav brand now.. is Itti Bitti (for AIO or Snap type).. Lunatots (for velcro or pocket type)...
Grobaby, HH pun kalah aa ngn lunatots...
tapi now grobaby can use disposable/biodegradable inserts.... adeh adehh..


"You can also compost the wet ones or simply toss the soiled refill. It will break down in the landfill in about 90 days vs. up to 500 years for a disposable. Ah, the beauty of eco-friendly plastic-free diapers."

thoughts??
one day, suddenly  turned dark...
comparing with another IB of the same age and wear...
this is the 3rd wash trying to clean the blackness... its not getting better....

17 Aug - 23 Aug : 17 Keping
24 Aug - 30 Aug : 30 Keping (rafiq cuti)
31 Aug - 6 Sept : 22 keping (cuti Merdeka)
7 Sept - 13 Sept : 17 keping (cuti nuzul quran, tapi hantar amir gak)
14 Sept - 20 Sept : 17 Keping
21 Sept - 27 Sept : 39 Keping (cuti Raya)
28 Sept - 4 Oct : 16 Keping

Bila aku bekalkan setiap hari disposable ke nursery...
baru aku terasa cam air je penggunaan pampers..
seblum ni bagi je satu pack kat MIL... every 2-3 weeks beli lagi..
so tak terasa... ni nursery terasa..
aku packkan 5 keping... seblum gi nursery dah tukar 1 dispo..
kalau amir berak lepas baru tuka pampers.. die guna habis 5 keping..
kalau tak berak, atau berak kebetulan seblum mandi je... die guna 4 keping...
so sehari akan guna 5-6 keping dispo di nursery.. bapak banyak !!
terlampau rajin plak nursery ni tukar pampers...
(ikut sunnguh schedule every 3-4 jam tuka tu la kot... kalau aku 5-6 jam baru nak tukar kalau dispo ....okayla, 7-8 jam sebnanye heheh)
banyak gile wasteful product yg irreversible... jadik landfil... I HATE IT !!!
Aku tak kisah sgt harga... tapi WASTE WASTE WASTE!!

testing2 kamera lagi.. poyo kan?

menyengat sambal ini...










perbezaan lunatots versi ke3 ... extra rows of snaps... no difference for amir.. but good for newborns aa kot... plus the snaps matching sket aa ngn the color of the CD... the new pink ones are so pretty!! ..sanaa point out kat aku. bumgenius snaps die tak nampak langsung sebab matching gile kaler die.. cam camouflage... ni yg aku nak sebnanye.... takpe, masih ade ruang nak improve lunatots!




teringin nak beli envirosax ni.. men tolong belikan.. these are from aussie!! ini request betul nih..




baru ade 2 je koleksi reusable bags aku...

letting go of 2 MamaLittleHelper cloth diaper..
Bought from fabulous Mom..

organic, bamboo, One Size, poket...
but ade 1 snap to snap on extra insert..
susah nak explain, aku boh gamba... esok aa..
tapi insert die aku tengok seblah bamboo, seblah microfiber..
so kalau tanak masukkan dalam poket, boleh letak terus je atas CD..
bamboo side facing butt..

tapi GAD ade size.. lunatots ni one-size..
GAD tu snaps.. lunatots can get snaps or velcro..
best gak velcro die...
tak nyakitkan hati cam HH punye velcro...
aku tak minat sgt opening poket lunatots tu..
tapi everything else is great!!.. sukanye aku tgk amir pakai hahaha
nyesal lak beli 1 je....

huh dahla kopak.. mengopakkan diri lagi kat parenthood expo...(PE)
but these are essentials hahahha...
mmg dah lama simpan plan nak beli nursing tops kat PE..
supaya senang nak BF kat europe kang...
yg pinky-black tu.. both pattern yg sama.. kaler je terbalik.. 20% off
yang coklat-black tu RM30.. best buy..
all originally was RM69.90



then aku beli cloth diapers.. Mama's Little Helper..x2
best gak.. coz die ade poket.. tapi boleh snap kat atas gak insert die...
harga asal RM59.90... dibeli pada RM39.90 each
then beli diaper lunatots satu... kaler pink hehehe..yg ni takde sale kalau beli satu

(lama sket dari biasa).. ni tak campo pasang and cleaning up... just pumping..

keh nak balik... nak test something from this kind person .. jeng jeng jeng.. ;)

Disposable diapers saved by using cloth diaper:

20 July - 26 July : 15 keping
27 July - 2 Aug : 2 keping
(time ni amir demam and kena somesort of infection down there)
3 Aug - 9 Aug : 10 keping
10 Aug - 16 Aug : 13 keping

orang kata kalau baby demam.. or nak tumbuh gigi.. their pee is more "kuat"...
ni dulu aku amek gamba masa amir teething... pee on the CD... aku dah basuh CD ni, tapi still ade kesan gelap camni.... (lepas basuh balik and sidai bawak matahari, CD itu kembali normal)... so kalau demam, teething.. kena selalu tukar CD/pampers... maybe di sinilah punca rash/infection.. the strong pee... I dunno.. just theorizing here

amir sleeping... usually i'd sleep too..
tapi gatal nak main PC baru hehehe..
pastu intenet ku terasa superfast pulak the last 2-3 days...
laju je nak upload2 gamba
before that, yokunakatta...

btw, am I searching etsy for cloth pad?...
(explanation for men and vivi: pad for period yang tak disposable)
dang it... it's a slippery slope hahaha
I dont have budget for it.. and yet I am searching for them...
why...??? masochistic sungguh

btw I love these patterns..!! would make a good MT or an O&A
(hmm sepesen je pattern yg aku minat nih..)








Anyways, it's a good day for cloth diapering...
ii tenki desu ne....




nak tido gaklah, gotta stop torturing myself google stuff I dont have a budget for....

ja, mata ....
