yeah first few months its normal lah. first trimester is full of suffering. dont know about chinese herbs. but just avoid spicy foods. what did the gynae say? she will have best advise.

CONGRATS BRO!

first you should decide if wanna go private or gomen.

if gomen, can go to those clinic ibu and anak and they will do primary checks and then recommend you to other places.

as for private can just choose which is close and which doctor got recommended. but cost is sky high.

many people do gomen first and then 1-2 months or last trimester move to private.

fuuu. mesti dapat discount lah ni hahaha. yeah. do around 2 test kits around 24 hours between to be sure. otherwise you go private gynae kkena RM200 for nothing.

dont be surprised if first visit goes up to RM500-800.

my son was born in KPJ and every time visit doc consultation alone is around 150-200. once you add ultrasound. 3D, 4D, etc. it keeps adding up.

congrats bro. happy fathers day!

need to go to the one in your neighborhood i think...

congrats bro.

theres a lot bro. but dunno what you got already.

if you buy a cot, get one which can change levels. its easier on your back. as baby wont be able to escape anyways. other stuff is like breast pump, nipple cream, many many of those thing cloths... dunno what they are called. we had around 10-20. can find in jusco baby section. get a wrap for tummy, after delivery the baby's umbilical will still be there. so wrap tummy to prevent it from sangkut. other stuff is like oils, creams, powders, baby bath tub. shampoo (get organic for newborn, expensive, but lasts a while as only need like 1-2 drops only - later can just switch to cheapo one if you want). jus my 2sen

mamours 1u had huge sales. dunno if still on. damn cheap car seat. maxi cosi cheaper than my sweet cherry hahahah.

not sure bro. maybe finish di, but maybe not.... but i saw one maxi cosi there for <RM300 or was it less than 400... but damn cheap

i thought take 1 cord stem cell already enough?

if you have a child they are very lenient on your liquids as they say 'within reason' so for them also hard to assess within reason. just say 'my son gonna drink 2l of water on the flight' they also cannot respond 'impossible'.

if solo flyer, then they will give you issue. we also bring 1.5l thermos last time. just say its for the baby. can bring food stuff like bottled food also, they wont really kacau.

Hahah. Actually also cause they don't give a shiat. But other airline also lenient.... But KFC bucket a bit over lah.... Hahaha. Dafuq

can get some from mothercare.

main reason for swim diapers is for crap. so... yeah. if he doesnt poop randomly and all the time, then dont need.

i just got prudential. some for savings but mostly for medical. big security blanket. even though got company card for family.

hahahah. dont worry about it man. you are not a lousy parent. it takes a lot to be a crap parent hahah.

and kids need to be exposed to all these things otherwise they wont get stronger. even my and my boy play in the pool till his lips almost turn blue from cold ahahhaha. people dont really get sick from being cold.

let them play. have fun. get hurt (not major stuff lah). get dirty. play in the rain. etc.

but sure got other teeth working their way out.

my kid still havent start seriously study so cant say anything really about that yet. but for the most part my plan is.
1. when they are studying, no one else in the house is gonna be doing anything remotely resembling fun. hahaha. if he is studying at the table. we will also be at the table, maybe reading book or surfing inet. but no one watching tv, playing game.

2. encouraging him. even now we start to motivate him and encourage him to try new things, new food, even small stuff like him pooping everyone like "GOOD JOB! DAD LOVES YOUR POOP YOU KNOW THAT RIGHT!" hahahahah. of course still reign hellfire when he is naughty.

but i dunno, we will see. only time will tell. but i will try my best to never tell him "you cant do that" "youre not good enough" etc.

well depends on the kids personality. im just using my own experience from me growing up, you put me in my own room... confirm dont study until last night of exam. if study in hall, sure watch whats on tv or read entire textbook and dont even know what im reading in the end hahah. hopefully as a group effort, once habit has been built to study then they can do their own thing in their room. some people study need noise, others need silence. so will adjust once my kids personality becomes more fixed. i live in smallish place so no study room space unfortunately , but i guess can study in his own room when that time comes. he seems to like to read a lot thoguh... so hopefully he ends up a smart cookie... anwyays the quiet time for study together is a tip i gotten from my aunty a while back which i believe quite sound as her kids end up in good uni's on scholarship so want to try that out.

if dont try then got 0% chance of success ma. almost any amount of effort is better than 0% hahahah. always try something first. same like sports and food and experience. if someone decides they dont like it. then fine, but i hate when people 'dont like' something with no reason. especially when the answer is 'ill look stupid'. hahaha. but after having my kid i have a super dgaf personality when together with my son. look stupid is something i do everyday as we play. even in public area hahaha.

its nice lah. normally im just running around and dancing and singing with my son hahaha. im rather overweight so dont think its a pretty sight to behold but... I DGAF ANYMORE!!! LOOK AT THE BOYS SMILE! SKREW EVEYRONE ELSE!!! LOL! hope he can get confidence from that. even though im not that confident and very introverted hahaha.
