I read everything about breastfeeding and get myself ready mentally ever since I got pregnant with QQ, my first girl. Knowing the benefits of breastfeeding, I pushed myself to breastfeed her since birth and I manage to breastfeed her fully until she reached 10 month old.
Breastfeeding twin boys at 3 months old
Realizing the health benefits [...]
With the current incident of contaminated milk in China, I guess many pregnant mums lagi wanna die-die wanna breastfeed their babies like I do. Thanks to my boh-kam-wan attitude, the twins are now solely on bm, but of course after putting in lots of effort.
For people who are not blessed with good milk supply like [...]
Back dated post
After visiting blogs, only realise I forgot to post on the twin’s fullmoon!!!!
*apalah this Mummy, only thinking about breastfeeding*
So. let me *shiok* sendiri (proud of myself) for presenting one of my breastfeeding pictures here
We actually celebrated a few days earlier by bringing back the boys to my hubby’s hometown for ancestors prayers. I [...]

Everyone has been asking me what are the names of my babies, and until today, only I publish it, sorry yeah, folks!
I have been waiting to do a nice scrap for the names, that is the reason of the delay. Guess this nice picture taken by Jazz will do
What is [...]
Time flies really and I am already completing the 3rd week of my confinement!
But sadly, I notice my milk supply is getting lesser and lesser (with less sign of engorgement). If the baby feeds at different time, I’ll normally feed one baby and pump on the other side at the same time.
Suckle amount = Pump [...]
To share a very geli photo here.
Anyone knows what this is called? After so much struggling with these 2 babies day and night (even my CL said they are the most difficult babies she ever seen!), we decided to try this remedy for the babies.
How to do:
Wet the shoulder, thighs, and arms area. Then rub [...]
Can you believe it? I am blessed with 2 sons, both with 2 HEAD SWIRLS !!!!

Yesterday night, my poor CL did not have a chance to sleep until [...]
Before I was discharged, the doctors talked to me, asking me about my family planning. When I told them I have not discuss with my hubby and decided, they insist that we let them know our decision before I can discharged.
So when hubby came to visit, they discuss with my hubby again on this [...]
First, will talk about my maid. After 1 1/2 month with us, she is really a great help especially in the kitchen. All the confinement food upfront preparation, family meals, cleaning job and laundry (including CL’s and babies clothes) are all done by her alone. She loves cooking so she picks up cooking skill quite [...]
Although I manage to breastfeed my first child exclusively, I do not know why how I failed to do it this time (even on one child).
Each night I will only take one child so that I can breastfeed him directly without having to pump at night (lazy to sit there, pump, wash and bring down [...]
One cry, the other one also cry.
One hungry, the other one also hungry.
One wee wee, the other one also wee wee.
Even my CL also going bonkers liao!! Every night, CL will bring the babies into her room to sleep early. After getting rest for a few hours, she will bring one of the twin [...]
I was so devasted to see my big flabby stomach after the delivery of my child. Not only it is HUGE, inside is PAINFUL as well. When I walk, it bounce and bounce (which really hurts!) especially when I go up and down the staircase.
So an idea pop up with the bengkung that I have.
See [...]
Manually weight by a visiting nurse
Twin 1: Weight increase from 2.73kg (birth) to 3kg (9th day)
Twin 2: Weight increase from 2.33kg (birth) to 2.7kg (9th day)
Not sure if all mummies out there know about this.
I thought the free home visiting service only applicable to babies in small town or in my hubby’s time. But guess [...]
Many has been asking me, if I can differentiate these twins, who is kor-kor and who is di-di. I would say they look quite the same and everyone including me, hubby, CL and maid has been playing “Guessing Game” all time at home.
By looking at just one, it will be hard to tell, but if [...]
