my son boleh tahan. he wont pick up everything and put into his mouth, just occasionally. the problem is... at mirrors or reflective surfaces he likes to go and kiss his reflection. talk about self absorbed. but i guess bacteria is good for a little kid to grow some immunity. but still pretty gross.

as for stroller. when we initially get out of the car, we put him in stroller, he will be able to sit for maybe like 30 mins. and we go straight to makan normally, then switch him to baby chair. after makan then let him roam freely as much as we can. the problem is he likes to jog. so he goes very fast haha. so semi-crowded places i make him carry a backpack and i just hold onto the top handle part. if very crowded will normally put in stroller, but if semi-crowded and i need to do something which my focus isnt 100% and he refuse to go into stroller, then i will pull out the leash! hahaha. also on the backpack. at least he can sorta roam. feel bad. but its a useful safeguard hahah.

yeah. my son loves the lifts, escalators still ok. he not interested. but the lifts he likes to go cause of the reflective surface. few times his fingers almost got wedged in when the doors open. i really RAGE OUT at my wife the first time for not being careful now i just stand there and block him off completely.

Safety harness is useful. when your kid is older, its sometimes damn hard to hold on to them as they judo their way out of your grip. and hard to hold on because scared to hurt them.

yeah i guess till they understand the concept of 'safety', better not let them go around alone hahah.

im using some china-brand one off of taobao. its an actual backpack so my son carries his own diapers and napkins and stuff and at the bottom got a clip to hook up the strap if required. damn cute see them walk around with their back pack.

this one maciam too hard core hahah. with the double clip in the front. we didnt choose this type because it only serves as a harness. which means if not using, its taking up space in your bag, or waifu's bag. but if always with stroller, then doesnt matter as can clip there. for us we chose the bag type because he can carry stuff as well. like his toys and such. actually we very rarely use the harness, but his bag is always with him. its just like 2-in-1.

later once your kid associates Bag = Jalan Jalan, for sure he happy to carry it. haha. my son runs around looking for his bag after he puts on his shoes. even from our apartment to the car .. like 2-4 mins, we will make him wear the bag hahah. worried later your kid associates this harness = cannot run! sure wont like to wear it hahaha.

hahah. kan. yesterday pun i kena. shower my son, put on new diapers... then. i baru je pakai baju. like 5 mins and waifu said 'he pooped.' i really liek NOOOOO!!!! wasted my mamy poko!!!

for kids, they love to see other 'small people' like them. but when they baru dapat kaki its so scary. always maciam like nak jatuh. hahah. but i let my son jatuh during that time. just give him thick pants heh... last time i feel like a boss. my son run chasing another kid in the playground and he fell down. all the parents like shocked and staring at me and waifu. we just stand there. like whatever mang. hahahah. then my son get up continue chasing other kids with a big laugh.

we bought a carrier last time like RM80-90. but in the end never used it! because my son sweats a lot... like me.. so put him in there he surely will sweat and then get angry. so now we using the lightweight stroller. the yoyo type. very good. if you all got small car. i cannot praise this small stroller enough! i always wanted maclaren but too expensive. i bought off of taobao hahah. everything from taobao. some knockoff one but served us well already for like 1.5 years. https://s.taobao.com/search?q=%E5%A9%B4%E5%...&sort=sale-desc but very very good. love it. and fits nicely in my myvi.

yeah. kids are smart, they will for sure be like NOOOOO!!! golek golek. die die dont wear hahahah.

the bags are quite nice. they got the S size. i think that is suitable for your kid.

hahah. wait till P lesen gone. then you will be really going crazy.

checked out the pockit. seems similar to the yoyo one. which is great. its good when travelling as you can just fold it up and goes into a carry bag which can sling over the shoulder. its good because we travel every year. used to use a Quinny which is MASSIVE. i think was like a RM2-3k stoller (kawan kasi - i iz poorfag). tayar dah lah like 10" hahaha. but yeah manueverabilty is damn good. it was the 3 wheel. but once it masuk boot. thats it. nothing else. i cannot even have the boot cover thing on. semua kena dismantle. and damn heavy... really takes effort to get it in and out of the car... if i have alphard ok lah. hahahah.

yeah. for my stroller we always bring it on as hand carry as its small. the other strollers cannot and need to be checked in at the gate. last time my quinny also sustained some damage from that. so now we avoid checking the stroller in at the gate. if malas to bring, we will box it and check it in normally.

yeah damn heavy... quinny quite comfy but not that airy. but i think maybe nice for the rider. got suspension summore...

can pass. but you need to check it in at the boarding gate. then they will wrap it up and put it into the plane. then when you exit they will also give to you at the plane exit. we dont do that cause last time bad experience and part of the stroller got damaged. but I didnt realise till left Hong Kong already. and also for some reason was covered in paint. which was weird. but that was protected by the bag, so no issues. except i got some on my clothes. but Cathay gib me voucher. as compensation. they said someone checked in a can of paint... wtf... so the pressure caused the can to explode. lulz. she said im lucky didnt kena my bag. some people apparently paint seeped through their luggage

just let them know at the check-in that you want to take the stroller to the gate. then they will give you the check in luggage tag thing. same like your normal check in luggage. then give it to the person that takes your boarding ticket. they will balut and put into the cargo. but with kid at least you can go in first so dont need to rebut.

but i tell you.... its damn hassle. i dunno if will be the same when you go. but every security checkpoint you gotta fold your stroller and put it through the xray machine if quinny then really penat lah for you hahah.

yeah kan. i want my kid to do martial arts. now they adding karate too.

Career earnings from DOTA malaysia players. if you good. why not hehe.

hahah. yeah sometimes i go home look around like... 'how do i live in this mess' hahah. most annoying is remote control disappeared... last time my car keys too... main sumbat je. i dun even know how many toys have gone into my subwoofer.

hahaha. kids man. they really are naughty.

i also sometimes like. hmm. let me clean up. then zzzzzzzzzz...

hahah. how much your allowance? 20kg? or 30kg?

normally i also do the scale thing haha. but after a while just hentam je and rasa rasa the weight. those tong air is around 20kg.

why.... hahahah. you moving overseas is it? hahah. thats a bit over lah. if the toilet seat is the one put on adult toilet seat ok lah. if like the ikea potty then take lots of space liao. the basin really lots of space... daddy or mummy just dukung the baby in the shower/bathtub lah. family shower.

we do bring meds with us, but mainly because he goes back to my wife's hometown for long periods of time so she got like a mini medkit hahah of all his stuff like constipation meds, nasal spray, etc. things we never really use much though, but hard to find. the fever meds we dont normally take unless travelling and the destination isnt in summer like malaysia. but better safe than sorry. normally that pink one is ok, dont forget dosing syringe or just memorize the dose in a tablespoon or teaspoon. cough syrup dont really need as thats a gradual sickness. not sudden like fever. but should start bringing some bandaids of different sizes as the kids like to lari sini sana. mana tahu fall down and get a cut. we also carry antiseptic/antibacterial wipes to wipe down airport seats, strollers, tables, etc that he might touch, kiss, lick, etc on the plane (international germs yo!) hahah. also its good to wipe his hands before snacking as sometimes really damn malas to wash his hands on the plane.
