POU - OUR VIRTUAL ALIEN PET AND TIPS FOR MAKING IT GROW FAST

Pou is his / her name. It is actually a virtual pet having no gender, or it should be decided by the down-loader of the application. 

Kei loves to play Pou. I love it, as well, especially with the fact that it also comes with a lot of games. There have been more than a million and a half people downloading this game, and i understand why. Having Pou as a pet doesn't bother me at all. She (I'm making her a female alien pet) doesn't whine when she's sad or hungry, when she gets fat, I can just give her the fat burner potion and she'll lose a lot of weight in seconds, she eats anything as long as she's hungry, and she says yes to whatever i dress her with. 

Pou has been kei's friend since about three months ago, even though kei has also deleted this app twice!! Last time she did it, her Pou was already on level 30 something, and it was hard work you know. 

She's still asking about Pou when she wakes up, though. Last time she removed Pou by accident from her Tab, i told her that she herself who removed it. And Kei understood it! Eversince, she has always asked and answered the question herself. Yesterday she asked me in Bahasa, 

"Mama, Pou mana?" 

I asked her back, " Mana Pou?"

Then she said again, "Pou udah gak ada, diapus. Sama kekei."

Having been asked about this over and over, I decided to (again) download Pou application for my daughter, and then the good thing was, I also found another application on Android Playstore named Pou Final Cheats. I was initially afraid that it was just malware or some kind of harmful viruses. However, I went through all of the reviews and none said it was bad or that it contained viruses, so i downloaded it.

And I am glad I did.

Last night at around nine-ish, I started downloading the application (one on Kei's Tab and one on my smartphone), continued by using the tips, and they worked!

In less than ten hours, Kei's Pou has rocketed up to level 8! The tips are fairly easy. No download, just by using the work of your fingers :] I don't plan to use them for my Pou, though. I'll just be a normal pet keeper, and play games as often as I want to. 

Kei's Pou, level 8 this morning, and very trendy :]

My Pou, who's still tiny and half naked :p

There are a number of tips, you can use some or all of them. Here they are :

A1. Feed your Pou until s/he is really fat.

A2. Forward the date of your mobile 1 day.

A3. Repeat steps A1 and A2. The more times you do it, the more levels of your Pou will go      up.

B1. Feed your Pou, play with it, and wash it.

B2. Forward several hours of your mobile so the game thinks the time has passed.

B3. Repeat steps B1 and B2. With the above tricks, gaining levels will be fast.

C1. Buy lots of fast food and Fat Burner potions.

C2. Continue feeding Pou until it doesn't want to swallow anymore.

C3. Give your pou Fat Burner potion to make it lose weight.

C4. Repeat the above steps as many times as you want.You will gain levels at full speed.         These tips also work with the Hunger potion.

Well, I have to rush on preparing breakfast because Kei and our Pous are sleeping so I'm still a bit safe :p

KINDERJOY DILARANG DI LUAR NAMUN DIJUAL DI INDONESIA

Saat mampir di Hypermart Puri, anak saya Kei sempat minta dibelikan sejenis coklat, namanya Kinderjoy. Saya pernah dengar bahwa produk ini dilarang beredar di beberapa negara kaya Amerika, Kanada,  Jerman, Perancis, dan beberapa negara lain di Eropa.

Si Kinderjoy ini lumayan mahal untuk ukuran kecil begitu, hampir 10 ribu rupiah sebutir telurnya. Dalamnya ada dua bagian, satu bagian itu berisi coklat dengan lumeran coklat putih dan di tengahnya ada dua bola coklat sebentuk kaya Ferrero Roche cuma agak lebih kecil sedikit. Di bagian satunya terdapat bagian'' mainan kecil terbuat dari plastik, dengan kertas petunjuk (yang juga berukuran kecil). Mainannya kaya potongan'' puzzle yang bisa membentuk menjadi sesuatu. Saya buang mainannya, karena males bikinnya dan ngga berguna juga untuk Kei, dan juga terlalu rumit untuk anak seumur Kei untuk bisa menyusunnya. Di dalamnya juga ada sendok plastik mini warna putih di bagian tengah.

Kinderjoya dijual dengan nama berbeda-beda di beberapa negara. Ada yang bilang Kinder Surprise, Kinder Sorpresa (Italia). Di Amerika, si coklat ini ilegal lho karena berpotensi menyebabkan kematian. Terang saja, mainannya itu kecil-kecil, kalo misalkan anak nggak sengaja menelan satu bagian aja terus tersedak dan menyangkut, wah bahaya berat itu mah. Tahun 2000 lalu di Inggris, tiga anak dari orangtua yang sama meninggal karena menelan mainan si telur ini.

Di Eropa, mainan'' Kinderjoy ini jadi barang koleksi, karena dari satu tipe mainan ada beberapa figur atau jenisnya. Kaya mainan yang kita dapat kalo beli Happy Meal di McD kali ya, cuma kan memang ukurannya lebih besar.

Alasan utama kenapa Kinderjoy ini ilegal itu karena si coklat ini kan sebenernya makanan, terus di dalam telur coklatnya ada mainan yang notabene bukanlah makanan. Ini yang dilarang, memasukkan benda yang tak bisa dimakan ke dalam sebuah produk makanan. Gitu lho, ngerti ngga? bingung ya saya jelasinnya, hehehe. Selain itu, Kinderjoy dianggap sebagai jenis makanan yang tidak memiliki nutrisi.

Anehnya banyak sekali yang menyayangkan larangan beredarnya produk ini, karena banyak yang suka dengan rasanya yang memang miripi dengan coklat prmeium Ferrero Roche dengan tambahan coklat putih. Pantes aja mahal ya bow, hehe.

Selebihnya, terserah orangtua mau membolehkan anak''nya makan produk ini atau ngga, tapi mainannya dikeluarkan lebih dulu deh :]

SAUS PEDAS TABASCO MENGANDUNG (DNA) BABI ?

Pagi semuanya, assalamualaikum.. Semoga Allah memberkahi dan merahmati hari ini dan kita semua akan diselubungi hanya dengan kebaikan, Insya Allah amin.

Sabtu ini rencananya mau berselonjor saja di rumah sembari sambil menghabiskan jatah baju kotor supaya rumah keliatan lebih enteng, :p Biasa banget ibu-ibu kalo liat rumah isinya penuh debu, bawaannya kepingin dibuang''in aja isinya. Bentar lagi, Desember rencananya mau membuang banyak barang yang sudah lama memenuhi ruang tamu dan dapur, ngga berguna lagi soalnya.

Perut sudah mulai ngetuk'', kelaparan. Sayangnya tak ada stok roti tawar, hiks. Saya ini penggemar berat roti-rotian, kayanya pernah cerita beberapa postingan yang lalu. Mau roti manis, roti asin, roti bantal, roti kasur, roti rasa rendang, hehehe. Salah satu  kesukaan saya itu pinggiran roti Pizza yang di Pizza Hut, karena tebal. Nah, kalo makan disana, udah pasti sering liat dan mungkin hobi untuk menambahkan saus Tabasco di pizza atau pasta yang akan kita makan. 

Saya sih memang suka nambahin tabasco, walau memang bukan sebuah keharusan. Kalau ada ya hayuk kalo ngga, saya ngga cari.

Nah, gosip di tivi dan beberapa situs internet bahwa tabasco itu mengandung babi. 

Weleh. Gawat ini mah.

Biarpun dalam Islam, kalu kita tidak tahu makanan yang kita makan ataupun produk yang kita pakai mengandung babi, kan tak mengapa. 

Tabasco itu sebenernya dibikin dari cabe, cuka, garam. Kenapa harus ada babinya? emang diperlukan? Apa babi suka bermain dengan cabe dan sayur''an?

Saus keluaran Amerika ini sebenarnya pun sudah punya surat persetujuan pendaftaran di BPOM RI namun akhirnya dicek juga sama Badan POM RI karena banyaknya berita yang beredar di luaran agar nggak semakin simpang siur. 

Hasil lengkapnya, tabasco ngga mengandung sedikitpun zat ke-babi-babian, hehehe, nih klik disini untuk tau apakah tabasco mengandung babi atau tidak.

WHAT IS YOUR DEFINITION OF BEAUTY?

Let me start with some facts about myself.
Eversince I was in middleschool, I have always been chubby. There was a time when I was thin, that was also because i limited my food consumption and went to gym 4 times a week. And now I am back to being chubby and old :]

As an adult woman, I love pampering myself. However, I also learn to be efficient when doing so.
The fact that I am a jobless single mom has really taught me to live much more efficiently now :] thanks to that.
Each month (when i was still working), around 30% my income goes to beauty products. Face, Body, Hair.
When it comes to products for my face, I couldnt be bothered more. Name..  day cream, cleansing milk, face wash, face mask, night cream, BB cream, blush on, eyebrow pencil, mascara, eyeshadow, face serum. These are the ones I can remember at the moment.
Body products could include hand & body lotion, soap, perfume, body scrub, body butter, sole cream.
Thankfully, I only use hair shampoo and conditioner for my hair. And I am not a fan of creambath or hairmask.
Since I wear a hijab, I think it matters only for my future husband later on :] 
I try to stay at the backstage, never want to be the center of attention only because of how i appear on the outside. 

Nevertheless, I am also a woman, and I can not get rid of the tendency to wanting to look pretty whenever and wherever.
When I have extra money, I run into shops looking for discounts on either clothes or beauty products.
The funny thing is, I believe in all those TV commercials and magazine ads.
I believe that in 14 days after using a brand of shampoo, my hair would look like one of those popular singers’ hair.
I believe that when I use this brand of face cream, I would look a few years younger.

Most of these TV commercials objectify women. They use women with big boobs, gorgeous face, long straight hair, etc etc.

Have you seen an Indonesian paint TV commercial? It shows a woman wearing a transparent white dress who is about to sit on a park bench which has just been repainted. The woman is shocked and looks a bit angry, stands up, and starts moving her lower part of the dress and shows her thighs and buttocks?
A few days after it was aired, it was censored.
Another TV commercial in Indonesia, showing two girls, one with a dark skin and the other having a fair skin. 
The woman with dark skin seems to get no attention at all, but after using  a whitening face cream, she suddenly gets all the attention from even other women.

The funny & the stupid thing is, I also believe that the more beautiful my face is, the fewer freckles are on my face, and the slimmer I am, and the fairer and whiter skin tone I have, people would see me as a better person. Am I being funny or being stupid? Both I guess. 
How could that make sense? Where is the link between being beautiful and how modest and kind we are?  

Facts are happening in Korea. Everyone is dying for facial surgeries. Parents even give their children a facial surgery as their 17th year old birthday present. They think there are only two ways of becoming successful in Korea, either with beauty or you must be really smart! Sadly, Koreans are usually born with a square-like face and small slanted eyes. Therefore, facial surgery is always the best option for young Koreans who want to look much more beautiful be better enhanced. Last Miss Korea pageant was  in the news because the judges found it hard to decide on the winner since the majority of the contestants have similar faces. 

But that is the truth.
We go to school, we are fed by tons of type of education, we learn about fiction and non fiction writings. Still, we buy those lies.
Here are some facts about advertising, sexualism, and women

There is only one illness people can never cure, the illness of aging.

Usamah ibn Shuraik narrated that The Prophet pbuh said:

“… ‘O Allah’s Messenger! Should we seek medical treatment for our illnesses?’ He replied: ‘Yes, you should seek medical treatment, because Allah, the Exalted, has let no disease exist without providing for its cure, except for one ailment, namely, old age’.”Tirmidhi

Buy a million dollar cream, and we will still age and eventually die, because our hormones also age.. no matter how hard we try to avoid the phase.
Live in a castle with windows to protect you from sunlight, we will still age.
We will have wrinkles soon, we’ll grey hair on our heads, we’ll get weaker and our body won’t be functioning anymore. 
That is called life cycle  When we are babies we are helped a lot, later on when we are adults we help the small ones and the old ones, when we are old we will have to be assisted by the younger ones.

ONLY JAPANESE PEOPLE CAN THINK OF THESE, I ASSUME :)

Have you watched the Masquerade program? It is obviously Japanese. It is absolutely unthinkable. Japanese people have always been considered as people who think out of the box most of the time, other than them being polite and disciplined, of course.

I have gathered images or pictures of inventions (of japanese people for sure) that may make us all nod or shake our head. Never thought that these things would ever exist in real life :p

These two are pillows. yep pillows. Why do these pillows look like a woman's lap or a guy's body? These pillows are good for those who are lonely. Hahahaa, when you miss your partner and need a hug or some kind of warmth, then these pillows are the option :)

The one below is called the mouth opener. i honestly dont know what it is for. But I guess it can be used to make your lips fuller and wider? I have no clue. Perhaps it can make you smile more beautifully, hehee.

Here is a good one to purchase when you normally can't sleep well during your bedtime. Bring a couple of these then position your head properly, close your eyes and stick them right on. Nobody would tell you are actually sleeping with your eyes wide open, :p

I need to have these! 

I love to eat noodles, particularly when it is hot. But the thing is it takes a lot of energy to use chopsticks and eat and also keep blowing the noodles so that it'll be less hot. And I heard it is also not polite to blow or smell your food. When do you think these will arrive and be sold in Jakarta?

Bras. Men's Bras. What do you think  of it?

Men seem to be jealous of women, and what we are able to put on, make up, dresses, pretty colourful clothes, etc etc.

These are a sign of masculinity?

Halal Products / Produk Halal (Better Options, for Me)

Assalamualaikum..

Well said post title. 
I basically switched to numerous different product brands that promise to be using ingredients that are halal. Why? personally, it has given me the sense of security. I mean, having to imagine that the lotion I am applying to my hands results from fat or oil from worms or swine makes me feel nauseous :p
So months ago, little by little I started purchasing products which were pretty new to me.. Oh just a reminder, most of the information mentioned here applies to products sold in Indonesia. 

1. For hand and body lotion, I am currently using Citra or Vaseline body lotion. It was a bit shocking to find out that the latter brand was actually halal. In the past I often bought various random brands depending on the amount of money I owned, :-)
Vaseline does not use any animal ingredient and alcohol for its fragrance. So it is safe for us moslems. Well actually I have often used Vaseline for many years of my adult life, here's the details.

2. Shampoo. 
This is tough. Before putting on hijab, shampoo was an important part of my monthly shopping list. I am always tricked by those shampoo commercials on TV. Then I found out form some magazine, that for actresses modelling for hair shampoo commercials, they must undergo a series of processes before actually shooting for the commercial. Some processes include: shampooing their hair and applying hair conditioner every single day, hair-creambathing, hair-masking, applying hair vitamin and serum, smoothening, and etc etc.

I once used lots of brands from Sunsilk (either the black or yellow one), Clear, Pantene, TreSemme (this is the best), Dove, Rejoice, HeadnShoulders (this is a temporary brand used only when my head itches or dandruffs pass by).. I can not name more since there are too many of them.
Dove, TreSemme, and HeadnShoulders shampoos have no guarantee that they're pork free.
I have switched to Natur shampoo now, it is halal and it doesn't use any chemical substances in it. Perhaps that is what makes it smell like that.

3. Face Moisturizer 
As an Asian, honestly, I am one of those women out there who wishes to have a fairer skin. Don't judge me wrong, it is natural. Living in Indonesia, when you have dark skin, people see you as having done rough outdoor job and having coming from a low level class. That is the truth. Pathetic, I know.
However, for me, having fairer skin may mean a fresher look on the outside.
I used to purchase Olay or Ponds (any which could whiten or lighten skin-tone) moisturizer regularly.. I wasn't sure whether they're halal or not, I never really thought of it.

I have switched to Ponds Age Miracle now. I still want a fairer skin, but it is not a priority anymore. What i want is what this product promises, a ten year younger looking skin. Sometimes I use Hada Labo as well.
I am certain that aging is an illness that can never be recovered or healed. That is what Rasul said. Women wish to always look young, well at least my skin is moisturized most of the time :-)

4. Soap..
Let's start with this fact.
The following bar soaps ---> LUX, DOVE, OLAY, SAFEGUARD, JERGEN, DIAL, LEVER 2000 UNILEVER, ZEST --> No guarantee that Pork is not used. Pork is used when other sources are unavailable. 

Now I am using Lifebuoy Barsoap or Shower Cream, only. No more Lux I guess :-)

5. Make Up.
I have now switched to Wardah for most of my make up needs (eye shadow, sunblock, face powder)

The following have already obtained its Halal Certification from MUI : 

Cosmetics

1. Wardah

2. Ristra

3. La Tulipe

4. Sari Ayu (Martha Tilaar)

5. Caring Colours (Martha Tilaar)

6. Pourvous

7. Purbasari (body scrub)

8. Kanna (cracked heels cream)
9. Mustika Ratu
10. Moors
11. Biocell
12. PAC

Toothpaste 
1.  Pepsodent
2. Ciptadent
3. Close Up
4. Total Care
5. Kodomo
6. Sparkle
7. Zact
8. Daun Sirih Toothpaste, Mustika Ratu

Soaps
1. Lux
2. Lifebuoy
3. Vaseline
4. Citra
5. Dove
6. Harmony
7. Lervia
8. Medicare
9. Anita
10. Enchanteur

ZUHUD

Seorang laki-laki datang menemui Hasan Al- Bashri, seorang ulama ahli zuhud ternama,seraya berkata, “wahai tuan, beritahukanlah kepadaku rahasia hidup zuhudmu?”

Sangulama menjawab, “aku menjalani pola hidup zuhud dengan meyakini empat hal.

Pertama,aku meyakini bahwa rezekiku tidak akan diambil orang lain sehingga hatikutenang.

Kedua,aku aku meyakini bahwa amal perbuatanku tidak akan di lakukan orang lain,sehingga aku mengerjakan sendiri.

Ketiga,aku meyakini bahwa Allah senantiasa mengawasiku sehingga aku malu jikamengerjakan maksiat, karena Dia pasti melihatku.

Keempat,aku meyakini bahwa kematian menantiku, sehingga aku harus menyiapkan bekalsebaik-baiknya untuk menemui Tuhanku.

So this is it

Well said. I was absent from work yesterday because I had to do some stuff. One was to look for a school for kei. I have not decided yet though. Last night, while putting kei to bed, i read her a story but then she started calling my nama and crying. She must have had a short bad dream i guess.
OOT, i think i am confident enough to step a little further now. Kei and I do not deserve to be treated like we have been. I know i made a lot of mistakes and am not going to defend myself.
But still, having a bit talk to ourselves may do us good. 
Stop blaming other people. My mom especially. She has nothing to do with it. But still, she was sent a letter filled with terrible swear words.
But what have I and kei received so far? None. i am not asking for anything else except being with her.
I am fine with everything. But kei does not deserve this and never will.
As her mother, I will do my best to protect her. 
Whether or not it is only a game, this is not a common thing. 
Play games behind us, not in front of our families. You are basically embarrassing yourself. 
I have no hatred or anger. None. I am not feeling blunt and leaving everything to God.

Temmy's Top Things :-)

Masih belum bisa tidur, sementara suami lagi asyik main game dan Kei sudah bobo pulas dari berjam-jam lalu. Sepertinya saya siap untuk nulis blog pertama di tahun yang baru ini :D
Yang simple simple sajalah, yang terpikir saat ini yang ada di sekitaran saya, hahhaa..

Kepingin aja ngeblog tentang berbagai jenis items yang setia nemenin saya sampe sekarang, walopun memang sempet ganti brand tapi yang berikut ini yg paling cucok sm saya. Tapi saya cuma bisa review beberapa aja, hiks

* Maybelline Volume Control mascara.
Bener deh, saya sempet pake Mavala, Revlon, dan Sariayu, (saya ga mau coba produk yang diatas budget kemampuan saya, itu mah namanya memaksakan). Cuma dengan maskara Maybelline ini, bulu mata saya terasa "keliatan", lentik, dan berasa aja panjangnya. Kalo produk lain, selain susah diapus, kadang membekas juga saat pulang kerja, selain itu merk yg saya pakai sungguh affordable, pocket friendly. Harga sekitar 50ribuan saat ada diskon. Di Guardian malahan sering ada promo tambah seribu dapet dua maskara, :]


* BioCell Stick Foundation.
Kan muka saya penuh dengan freckles (kalo bahasa kerennya itu yah), kata nyokap dari jaman saya SMP memang udah ada itu bintik bintik coklat di muka. Susah sekali ngilanginnya.Akhirnya saya nyerah, toh sepupu suami saya yg spesialis kecantikan bilang, kalo untuk flek wajah mau gak mau harus dilaser. Yah, kembali ke masalah biaya lagi, kan prioritas saya bukan lagi diri sendiri saat ini, jadi lebih baik ini freckles say tutupin. Yang paling cocok n pas buat kulit saya yg cenderung berminyak, yah merk biocell ini. Ga belepotan kaya pake foundation cair. Trus cepet nyatu dengan kulit jadi bisa langsung didempul pake bedak muka deh :)
* Sayangnya sih Biocell itu susah dicarinya, kalau adapun kadang kehabisan. Jadi saya mensiasatinya dengan BB Cream. Hanya aja, BB Cream untuk saya bagus yang stick, kalo liquid lama nyerep di kulitnya. 

* Sushi Grill Meruya
Saya cinta sekali makan sushi, dan pilihan paling pas ya disini. Saya gak terlalu berani makan raw fish, jadi di grill aja untuk ambil amannya. Lokasi deket rumah, kurang dari 10 menit sampe, dan saya bisa pake high chair juga untuk Kei, dan senengnya lagi gak terlalu rame jadi lumayan cozy lah. Gak kaya resto resto junk food yg antri melulu.. Pilihannya ngga hanya sushi namun ada ramen dan udon juga lho. Harga variatif, biasa makan bertiga dengan Kei (dia dikit sih makannya) ngga sampai 200ribuan. Dan sering ada promo makan siang murah juga.

* Smartfren Wide Android Phone (saya lupa merknya)
Suami saya beliin ini tiba tiba dibawain dari kantornya. Nah, kalo untuk saya untuk browse internet,kecepatannya jauh lebih cepet daripada BB saya, tapi saya ga tau apa itu karna operatornya atau bukan. Selain itu, eye catchy juga modelnya jd saya putusin untuk lebih nyayangin androidnya dari pada BB saya, hahhaaa..

* Saya suka sekali minum kopi, bukan kopi item ya, itu sih mama saya yang doyan banget kapal api pake gula 3 sendok. Kalo saya lebih suka yang putih'' atau yang vanilla gitu deh, apalagi kalo panas'' ditemenin biskuit Roma Kelapa, promosi abeeeess. :]

* Nonton FRIENDS TV Series ya, yang US bukan yang Korea itu. Abis dari jaman SD saya udah nonton di RCTI, jadi agak nagih kalo akhir minggu nonton sendirian aja. Jokesnya ngga kampungan dan slapstick kaya komedi kebanyakan olga komedian indonesia.

Pompa Susu

Wuih, Kei hari ini tepat 4 bulan. Dan sampai hari ini juga gw belom dapet kerjaan, OMG.. ternyata susyah yaah nyari kerja. Secara bertahun-tahun kerjaan gw cuma pindah kantor 3 kali, saking loyalnya sama atasan dan juga saking cintanya sama kerjaan gw, hehee... Harus diakui, keputusan yang gw ambil untuk resign maret lalu salah, seharusnya gw ambil cuti saja dulu bukannya berhenti total. Kan bisa gw ambil jam mengajar yang hanya 15 jam  perminggu dan alhasil anak gw pun masih bisa sering ketemu mamanya :D

Berat beeneer ninggalin anak, walaupun sama neneknya sendiri. Kangennya itu gak ketulungan.. By the way, empat bulan ini kan full ASI eksklusif untuk Kei, dan gw memang udah beneran niat untuk minimal dia ASI selama 6 bulan, gak boleh kurang lebih boleh banget. Sempet pakai pompa susu lengseran dari ipar gw sih, pigeon manual yang model lama. Sempet pake juga tapi ternyata hasil perahnya kok gak banyak yah dan becek di jari-jari gitu karena gw keringetan kali yah tangan gw, heehee.. mana bunyi pula ngek ngook hihi.. mau cari gambarnya udah gak ada lagi di google yah.

Akhirnya gw belajar merah asi sendiri, dan alhamdulillah tiap pagi merah minimal dapet 60 ml, paling banyak 130 ml..itu pagi lho saking bengkaknya. Nah setelah baca sana-sini, tergiur juga untuk beli breast pump, sebenernya kalo dipikir-pikir belom tentu gw butuh, toh gw bisa pake tangan.. tapi kalo nanti gw kerja otomatis harus pake gituan kali yah..(ga ngerti juga)

Keputusan jatoh pada pigeon manual premium, karna pertama harga ga terlalu mahal dan itu juga recommended kok. Dan gripnya sih nyaman lho, dalem hati maunya sih medela swing tp harganya hampir 2 juta, yah gw mikir berkali-kali lah.Kebutuhan keluarga masih banyak yang jaaaauuuh lebih penting, mana gw jobless n mana mau lebaran juga, hehee..

Sebenanya proses memerah ASI dengan dua tangan kita bisa menghasilkan lebih banyak perahan, asalkan tahu bagaimana dan makanan sehat dan berair yang harus dikonsumsi. Selain itu, lebih efisien uang dan wkatu. Kalo pake pompa susu, setiap kali selesai kita harus cuci dan rebus itu pompa, kalo pakai tangan kan tinggal cuci tangan pakai sabun. 

Tapi semua kan terserah ibu'' ya... :)

motherhood

Hari ini, usia Kei 1bulan 2minggu 6hari. Badannya udah pasti semakin besar, tingkah lakunya juga semakin lucu aja. Dia udah bisa diajak bercanda, kadang senyum kadang ketawa. Nyess lho saat lihat anak sendiri bisa berekspresi kaya begitu. Sekarang kulitnya gak terlalu putih lagi. Agak gelap. Apalagi kalau sehabis mandi..wah kok anakku jadi menghitam begini? hehe.. Apa memang bayi terus berganti warna kulit ya sampai usia keberapa baru warna kulit aslinya keluar, ngga terlalu ngerti sih. Maklum ibu amatir, :)

Beberapa hari ini saya, suami dan Kei lagi menginap di rumah mertua nih. Enak sih, semuanya dilayani sedangkan di rumah sendiri saya harus siap tugas sebagai istri dan ibu tentunya, kalo disini kan karena banyak orang jadi banyak yang membantu jaga si dede kalo saya mendadak sakit perut atau apalah. Tapi kangen juga sama keadaan rumah. Omanya kei jg sudah beberapa kali telfon nanyain kabar cucunya. Anaknya sendiri, saya, sih gak ditanyain duluan hehehee. Begitu mungkin rasanya kalo posisi kita itu nenek atau kakek ya, lama ga mengurus anak kecil jadi kangen sama bau bayi, wangi susu di badannya, kangen mandiin dan mengurus segala macam keperluannya. Yah seperti cari kesibukan juga, selain masak. 

Saat ini Kei, lagi sibuk ngobrol sendiri. Tadi saya sempet ngobrol "dewasa" sama dia. Ngomongin belanjaan perempuan :p Sekarang ekspresi wajahnya nunjukin kalo dia lagi berusaha untuk BAB, hehe.. Secara seharian kemarin dia ga BAB, kayanya harus hari ini. Semestinya saya mah gak perlu kuatir. Ini juga nasehat dari para ibu profesional sih. Kan saya ASIX, jadi ga perlu terlalu memusingkan tentang frekuensi BAB bayi, soalnya maksimal bisa sampai seminggu dia ngga BAB pun, itu masih dianggap wajar. Soalnya ASI kan sudah paling bagus, dan saya sendiri aja ga kesulitan buang air, jadi seharusnya Kei juga ga apa dong.. Tapi kalo liat ekspresi wajahnya yang memerah mencoba mendorong, lucu sekali, kepingin bantu tapi biasanya cuma saya pijit perutnya pakai minyak telon :D

Bagaimana nantinya yah kalo ada keluhan lain? Bisa-bisa saya panik duluan trus akal jadi gak sehat dan jadi berpikir macem-macem lagi. Tapi ya sudahlah, insting seorang ibu pasti jalan kok..amin :p
