Breastfeeding Gear
I didn’t buy a lot of breastfeeding gear until I was actually doing it, and realised there are so many things I needed to make breastfeeding more relaxing and comfortable. So here’s a list of things that I found essential to achieve that especially for mums who want to breastfeed on the long term. 1) Bumblebee nursing pillow I breastfeed for a month without using this, and by that time, I had aching arms, back and backside! I tried all kinds of pillows and chairs around my house, and different positions but couldn’t get one that’s actually confortable. It’s no fun to to holding a baby that gets heavier each…

Breastfeeding challenge
While I was pregnant, my colleague asks me if I would breastfeed and for how long. I was 100% confident I will breastfeed, but I also thought I would only do it max for 2 months and then give it up after that.

Kajang Hong Kong Chee Cheong Fun
This is one of the best Chee Cheong Fun stall in Kajang market area, mostly I have this for breakfasts. Recently, my sister and bro in law came and John brought them there, and they totally love it. They sell it in two sizes, big and small, with two kinds of ingredient, either with char siew (pork) or prawns or mix. Normally I prefer to mix. The secret of the taste lies in the tenderness of the ‘fun’, the white part made of flour and the sauce…not too salty, just nice. This dish is quite rare in Kajang, I don’t know where else one can find this in the early…
