yeah, stroller? check around. perhaps buy a cheap one for the first one if u really feel u need to buy one?

if not, just buy after baby is born.

i bought 3, when my baby not even 1 year old yet.
(this is something i regret)

so i sold one and now i have 2. one for around home use ( we live in a condo ) and another for car/travelling purposes.


car seat, perhaps find one that can be use from newborn up to 2 or 3 years.


Pump? bought for my wife, in the end use it a little and then now no use at all.
my son directly latches onto my wife everytime. now that my wife is no longer working.
Will the mother be working? plan to start working again after delivery? then u need a pump.

there are a few shops where u can actually try the machine. i suggest u go and try.
again, best would be when u lactating milk (after delivery).

Again, i bought 2. one before birth, just in case ( a cheap one ) and another one after my wife start producing milk properly.

1. Breast Pump : we are using Spectra M1 + Freemie as it can be handfree

3. We bought Joie Every stage about 1.1k, can sit 0 to 12 years old

14. Feeding bottle: We used Pigeon, and for storage bottle for breastmilk

15. We didn't really use any sterilizer, mom used hot water, we just use Pigeon cleanser (that kill 99% germs) and kept in closed dish rack

16. If allowed, don't use hot water to warm milk as it might kill nutrients in milk, need to warm the milk earlier and keep warm for unfinished milk


We don't really use stroller when the baby grow bigger as stroller is troublesome to bring along, baby carrier will do just fine

Seems like most people regret buying stroller including me, lol..

Lol! Got it.. I think I will buy stroller later. It's not like I am going to take him around so soon except for doctor appointment. Maybe I will get a baby sling.

By the way you can download ‘BabyCentre’ apps to give you a rough ideas.

Ts, how many weeks is your wife now?

Likelt for a year, not advisable for baby to go out of the house to avoid virus infection. Their immune system is low. So don't have to buy pram yet

I'm considering similac brand for baby..

I also heard it's good for mom, but my gynae has r advise me what milk brand to drink. My church friend drink lots of soya bean and her baby's skin became so beautiful even until today (6 or 7 years old now). She looks exceptionally with really good skin due to her mom taken lots of soya bean. I might want to do that too after informing my gynae during my next visit.

I would recommend to use Avent brand as it's a reknown brand and you don't go wrong with branded stuffs lol

The rest of the items, I'm not too worried to buy as just yet.

The hankerchief must buy more.. baby tend to smile and milk drooling from mouth. And they tend to vomit milk from their mouth every now and then

The bolster and pillow try to buy minimum two sets. Else, once baby gets use to it, they forever want it and then you have to wash it with lots of care else got germs. Especially when they grow older, they drag their soft toys and pillow/bolster everywhere. So I'm considering to get two sets

And don't ever let them play phone. Let this generation live like ours, without phone when we are small

My generation live a lot in front of TV. My TV burnt one day because I over watched cartoons.

owh ya, dont forget the baby expo end of this month. (this coming Saturday & Sunday) at Mid valley.

there's a lot of baby expo, the TCE Baby Expo and Today's baby expo are one of the biggest i guess.

and they have it a few times a year.

End of last month also got one, not end of this month is another. i know upcoming TCE baby expo is in Mid valley as well in late November.

perhaps you can window shop first, then buy it next time?
or just go and buy also if u think u need to.

Thanks for reminding. I plan to window shop this Sunday at the expo and work out my budget. I have the tendency to impulse buying so need to be careful. Probably only purchase things in November expo once I work out what exact brand/model I want and within budget.

this weekend is Today's Baby Expo and in November is TCE Baby Expo.

But mostly same companies and same brands will join.
If you go this Sunday, and see something u want to buy in November, do ask them if they will join the one in November.
If they will join, then u can buy in November, if not, then maybe u need to buy there n then.

Went to baby fair and my head pening.... how many milk bottle should i get for first time? Buy one to try during maternity or buy whole set cause bb will be with nanny 24hr 5 day straight after this?

I use 6bottles 😅

Thanks. Is it recommended to buy 6 at one time or buy one to test first? Buy all in 0-3mth size? Or a mixture? I am considering buying starter package.


Is this useful?

I bought Tommie tippee starter set comes with 6bottles. My baby outgrown the teats we just the tears instead bottles.

I didn’t get one I co sleeping with my baby.. this is not encouraged.

Thanks for the helpful advise. I won't buy the smallest bottle then, but buy something medium, then change the teats as we go.

Im first timer here too. Good list for me to refer too. 😊

Yup, btw don’t buy Tommie tippee, I regret buying this brand.

My friend recommends Simba cause it solved his son's colic issue. But it's expensive about RM60-70 each.

I am also looking at Kuku and Pigeon PPSU range.

I bought upis ppsu is a Korea brand is about rm70-80

I just talked to hubby about not buying stroller first and he's like, "what to do if you have to bring bb to doctor appointment by yourself?"

Yep.. we agreed to take turn to bring bb to injection and appointments. Hubby can carry the baby seater basket, but if I am alone, I am not sure I can carry that or using the baby carrier. I have lower back pain.
That day I saw a lady bringing her baby alone and she was using stroller, not only to put bb, also to put her milk bottle, supplies and handbag. Seems like a lot if she didn't have the stroller.
