11 March 2011 is a day which every human in the earth get shocked when received a news from Japan - strongest earthquake as 8.9mag and later declared as 9.0mag at Miyagi, Japan. Many of them still missing and the rescue team is still on searching.

We here nothing can do much, keep on praying for them, pray for the calm back to them as soon as possible. Pray for the rescue team, strengthen their heart, pray for the victims.

Beside praying, we here also can donate some to the victims through some organisation like: World Vision, Malaysia Res Cross Society etc... 

3月11日,真的是一个很难忘记的日子。日本遭遇9.0级的大地震,随后就是大海啸。整个宫城县变成了海洋,好多人都失踪。拯救队伍还在努力的寻找失踪的人 。。。

我们可以做的就是不断的祈祷,希望平静尽快到来,天灾人祸快快过去。我们也可以透过一些慈善机构去捐款。希望小小的捐款可以帮助他们解决目前的问题吧!

Injection Schedule for baby

I have heard some parents saying about the schedule of injection for their baby ... more or less, there still same no matter your baby was born in private or government hospital. Parents will received a card whereby printed when your baby should take the injection.

In generally, there is some compulsory and optional injection you have to understand. You may consult your pediatrician about the necessary on taking those optional one. 

For me, I will let my kids get all the compulsory injection from pediatrician. For the optional one, I always consult with my pediatrician before making any decision. I understand that new parents may worry like why my friend's baby take many injection ? do I need to do the same with my baby ? why they like this and that ? Am I need to follow ? Well, I am also new mama. Whenever I heard what's from my friend, I will consult my pediatrician or some child's expert. But at last, the decision still on mine.  

Some people may like to "scare" you that if you take that optional injection, then chances of getting x x x x x x x ..... and especially to those new parents will feel worry on it. Then immediately bring baby for the injection, is not saying not good but as a parents, you have to understand and get advice from professional rather from "auntie" talk, right ??

So, my advice to all new parents ~ always consult with your pediatrician or child's expert before making any decision.

Choose formula milk for 1 year old baby ...

Which formula milk suitable for my 1 year old baby ?

It's kinda a headache problem, as you may worried after change to new formula milk, baby might not get use to it. Baby may have constipation problem etc.... 

I still remember last time my son turn 1 year old, I have change many formula milk for him ~ waste my money. I bought the smaller pack or tin for him to try. As you see he like the milk, then you will consider buy big tin for him. Then after a month, he stop drink the milk then again change another formula milk ~ huh ... at that time I am quite frustrated. Till I change him to Pediasure ~ the most expensive formula milk ~ only then he start to drink milk again. 1 tin cost about RM100++ and only can serve less than 1 month (my son can drink up to 8oz in 1 time), and after few months, I try change him to GainPlus, luckily he accept it till now.

Now, is time for my little girl .... I wonder is she will be same like her brother ?? This time, I will request a sample from the supplier also. But honestly, they only give you few packs and up to 1 or 2 days only. It is very difficult to judge whether she really like it or not. So, the same thing I will do is, go to buy small tin or refill pack first. If she really accept it then buy the big tin. hahaha ~ 

Now many choices for you to choose - from cheaper one to expensive one / or may be you will consider based on the nutrition provided / from local manufacturer or imported formula milk ~ is all depends on you to choose the most suitable one for your baby.
