Betul ke? Does Shaklee works for everyone? Mari share pengalaman saya dan rakan2..

Menjawab soalan di atas agak subjektif sebenarnya...sebab kalau bergantung pada vitamins sahaja tanpa berusaha utk pam dan mengamalkan pemakanan yg sihat, memangla takkan dapat hasil yang positif! betul tak? and pada pendapat saya, vitamins ni reaction nya berbeza2 pada setiap individuals. ada yang cepat je nampak hasil nye..and ade yg ambil masa sket. Macam saya sendiri contohnye, setelah 2 minggu berusaha barula nampak hasilnya...susu bertambah volume and bertambah pekat. Yang penting, jangan give up and teruskan usaha. Nasihat kepada diri sendiri gak ni, sbb kebelakangan ni sangat sibuk dgn urusan ofis and hujung minggu plak sibuk mengemas rumahtangga hehehe. Memang kadang2 tu malassss sangat nak pam! Tapi sebab nampak apa akibatnye kalau x pam (susu drop!) terus jadi insaf...sikit la hehehe. ish ish bad mummy!

Ok...So untuk menjawab soalan di atas and xmenjadi bias, saya kongsikan pengalaman rakan2 BSC (Breastfeeding Support Club) yang membeli Set B Breastfeeding Set dari saya and mengamalkannya.

Testimonial dari Ijan yang di email kepada saya...
Salam mommies,

I nak share my review pasal shaklee alfalfa ni..last week saja try beli utk keep up production masa bulan pose ni..sbb dok tanya org ramai ckp susu makin pekat, so baby kenyang lama eventhough minum sikit jek..lepas 1 week dah makan (dlm 5 biji malam before tido, if sempat makan 5 lg after sahur), rasanya mmg susu makin bykla..pagi2 lepas subuh mmg leh rasa breast full even tough baby minum gak thru the nite..

kalau nak compare,
before alfalfa: production 24oz, 3x pumping, last pump session at 7pm
after alfalfa: production 24oz++, 3x pumping, last pump session at 5pm

so alhamdulillah mmg nampak effect..eventhough tak makan galactagogue lain..


Yang ni pula di email kepada Kak Emy..rakan seshaklee saya...from Yanty..

Susu bdn jd makin pekat. And quantity still sama lagi…yg bagusnyer..ptg smlm susu xdrop ..hihi..syukur…
Membantu jugak la supplement Shaklee ni ye?..nnt klu I nk tambah stok atau koleksi vitamin I roger u…


Banyak lagi testimonial sebenarnye..tapi yang verbal, so nanti saya compilekan di lain masa ok? Dari email2 ni nampakla yang Shaklee set ni sangat membantu ibu2 ni, tepuk dada tanyela selera...kan? Anda bila lagi??? Kalau berminat sila hubungi saya di 0126634559/0162158301. Atau boleh je drop comment, walaupon skali skala je update blog...saya sentiasa browse blog ni :D

Not a secret anymore...breastfeeding weapon!

All this while breastfeeding Iris, i am constantly questioned by friends, relatives or even strangers...how can one manage to still breastfeed even though working office hours? Simple, pumping! And the next question, how do one manage to maintain the milk supply? For this question i have a series of answer hehehe. Firstly, pump! Secondly, by ensuring that your body has enough water and nutrients to keep up with the demand. Can vitamins really help? Isn't nutrients from food that we eat are enough? From my experience, yes...vitamins can really help..but, the right kind of vitamins. You would need the vitamins that can help you to endure pumping & working & breastfeeding all day long...and i'm telling you, it's one tiring routine!




TADAAAAA!!



This is my secret weapon you alls...As i mentioned previously in my post, i was introduced to Shaklee after my confinement period. After consuming it for quite some time, i am determined to share my secret to all mommies out there! Thus, the effort of becoming Shaklee's independent distributor. InsyaAllah...niat i ialah untuk sama2 berjaya dalam usaha murni ni. Back to the WEAPON... My daily routine is to take the vitamins from Set B (for breastfeeding) plus the Energizing Soy Protein.

Apa ada dalam Set B yang famous ni? Ok, SET B consists of 4 types of vitamins...Vitalea (multivitamins), Bcomplex, Vitamin C, & Alfalfa. Istimewanya kami rangkaian Euphoria GBS, we are the only ones offering trial packs which could not even be obtained from the store. So remember, this could not be obtained anywhere! In SET B trial pack (cukup utk sebulan) , we offer THIS

30's Vitalea (multivitamins)

30's Vitamin C

30's B complex

90's Alfalfa

All this for RM80 ONLY (including postage) <------ GREAT DEAL KAN??


Some info credit to mommy icha

Secara ringkas kepentingan suppLemen2 ini adalah

Vitalea-sangat penting untuk memastikan badan si ibu dipenuhi dgn zaT yg seimbang

B complex- memastikan si ibu bertenaga dan mood yang stabil

Vitamin C- sebagai antioksidan, pengukuh antibodi dan pembentuk kolagen

Alfalfa - milk booster! membantu si ibu menghasilkan susu dengan lebih baik



What about Energizing Soy Protein (ESP) ?


Dari pengalaman saya, hasilnya sangat memberangsangkan! Sebab protein adalah penting dalam penghasilan sus. Susu yang terhasil akan menjadi pekat dan mengenyangkan. That's why Iris minum susu sederhana sahaja and dia cepat kenyang! So advantage kepada saya sebab boleh simpan stok! kan? Plus yang menariknya, kulit saya dan juga kulit Iris halus mulus gitu...walaupon pada awalnya Iris sangat bermasalah dengan eczema. The reason is protein adalah pemangkin kepada pembinaan sel2 baru :D BEST kan? 2 in 1, milk booster + kulit cantik! ESP harganya adalah RM131 including postage..sangat2 berbaloi. Even di kedai SHAKLEE takkan dapat harga ni :D


So there....not a secret anymore hehehehe.... kalau ada keraguan atau soalan, jangan teragak2 untuk menghubungi saya zairul asrah - 0162158301/0126634559 atau email saya di zairulasrah@gmail.com. And kalau nak COD, saya ada di sekitar PUCHONG, PUTRAJAYA, BANTING,KLCC. Just give me a call insyaAllah....

Breastfeeding Susah? Salah ke minum formula?

In my office, we have a group called BSC ( breastfeeding support club ) where we we share info and updates about mommyhood. All from breastfeeding to parenting, and to tell you the truth, I learned a lot from our pumping session in the pumping room. Here is also the place where I witnessed these super mommies trying their very best to top up their milk supply by power pumping or eating good food and what not. Some even had to pump & deliver their milk to babysitter/ nursery via despatch aka husband masing2. Punyela tabah n hebat ibu2 ni. Sanggup buat apa saja demi kebaikan si anak.

I am highlighting all these efforts because I keep on receiving questions ' kalau x breastfeed salah ke? ' or ' formula milk xbagus ke? ' from my point of view, it's not about salah ke x, or bagus ke x. It's about your effort, how much are you willing to sacrifice & work towards realizing your dream to breastfeed your babies. If let say you have tried your best in breastfeeding but still it is not enough, what can anybody say anything about that? Takkan nak biar anak Ko xminum susu kan? Harusla beli susu kan.

Yang penting kita kene berusaha bersungguh2 utk mencapai impian itu. Kalau pam seperti biasa xcukup, harusla power pumping every 2-3 hours. If badan rasa xsedap, harusla makan vitamins utk kekal sihat bertenaga. And jangan lupa utk selalu berdoa and cekalkan niat dlm hati agar dipermudahkan urusan dlm breastfeeding ni. I never said this is easy, in fact it's tough even to myself! Tp insyaAllah.. Dengan usaha and niat yg suci murni kita boleh lakukan.. And kepada ibu2 yg xbegitu bernasib baik di dalam bidang ini, jangan la sedih or rasa bersalah.. Mungkin bukan rezeki Kali ini... Maybe the next journey would be better.. Right?

Apa2 pon ingat.. Usaha tangga kejayaan....

Not the standard practice

I am not the kind of person yg 'into' memohon maaf time hari raya. No, not because x rase mcm ada kesalahan, of course ada...but i do feel that forgiveness should be asked and given at anytime. Even my family pon xdela satu specific session wajib utk bermaaf-maafan, kadang2 dah petang tu baru la i bising2 suruh bermaafan. Tu pon sbb nak bergambar hehe. One of the reason plak i guess, whenever Raya we will be rushing to the mosque and then to the graveyard and then to the open houses...so kinda terkejar2 and xsempat nak make sure everybody's ready to bermaaf2 secara formal. Selalunya, my sis lambat siap...so kang die xde plak dlm session tu (padahal dia yg paling banyak dosa -- hahahahaha acah je)



Kami yang sedondon


This year, our sesi bermaafan was done the evening of the first Raya, after completing the usual routine of Hari Raya Pertama di Kedah. So dengan mekap yg tidak seberapa and badan yg dh agak melekit, kami pon bersalaman and bermaafan...simple2 je, our family does not have the teary eyed session..entah...xpenah kot nangis2 hehehehe. dh banyak drama through out the years kan, so xperlu la di pagi raya nak sedih2 hehehehe. in fact i am happy because this year marked the completeness of myself as a woman. I am a daughter, daughter in law, wifey, sister, sister in law, mother....alhamdulillah...syukur ke hadrat mu Ya Allah.... My husband pon nampak sangat gembira dpt beraya dgn daughter kesayangannya. He is very proud of her...senyum lebar bila org kata anak dgn comel hehehehe.



sama tak?


Iris on the other hand, is very happy with the ramai-ness of people yang nak melayan dia. She is one happy girl playing with cousins and enjoying the company of uncles and aunties. semua nak dukung and lambung2 dia...suke la tu. Walaupon, sedikit panas badan die sbb travel jauh and jumpa mcm2 orang..tp ligat tetap ligat ok. tp mummy tetap steady sebab ramai kakitangan nak membantu hehehehe...suke! okla...sedikit sebanyak about my raya this year....a fulfilling one, alhamdulillah...


pok amai2


p/s - gambar daddy xde dlm pc..nanti upload ok dear hehe

My breastfeeding journey with Shaklee

Alhamdulillah it has been almost 10 months I'm being Iris's milky bar. It is truly an achievement for me! If people asked me a year ago, could I breastfeed my daughter for 10 months? I know I would be doubting myself then, typical me, afraid to give hope to myself!! However deep inside, I would love to breastfeed my daughter for as long as possible.

I was very lucky because i was introduced to Shaklee trial pack for breasfeeding mommies since I got back to the office and since then I never missed my daily dose of vitamins. Alhamdulillah I managed to keep up with my daughter's demand and apart from the daily supply, I still have a deep freezer full of expressed breast milk.



My frozen Ebm



Moved to a larger storage

Thanks to Shaklee for helping me provide the best to my baby. I believe everybody can do it, as long as you diligently pump, eat good food and get enough vitamins ( as for me I choose Shaklee!! ).

So to those who are interested to try the vitamins you can simply call me zairul - 0162158301. I am now Shaklee independent distributor, because I would like to help fellow mommies out there!! I'll share some of my customers/ friends testimonials in the next post insyaAllah..

P/s - you can also email me at zairulasrah@gmail.com or just drop a message here.. I'll definitely get back to you!

Perasaan yang best & x best

Now, everyday going to the office is a drag to me. I really2 hate the idea that I have to do all the stuff that I forced myself to do. It does not make me happy so I am quite sure this is not what I want to do for the rest of my working life. I have my fair share of frustration throughout my 5 years working here. So I started thinking about doing something else. But still I need to consider a lot of things. It's ok.. Slow and steady wins the race.

Yang bestnye pulak is, currently I am the Cinta Agung of Iris's life hehehe. She prefer to be with me compared to anyone else. Especially when she just woke up from sleep. She wants to be cuddled and hugged by me. Even though she spent most of her time with my mum, once I got back from work she'll immediately crawl her way like some racer to me. I think we share a special bond therefore we love each others' company very much. I am also breastfeeding Iris, alhamdullah... Secretly wishing I could continue breasfeeding up to 2 years insyaAllah...

Pheww..

Woww it has been a cruel part of the year for me.. I have loads of works and not to mention an exam by the company for promotion! Yikes!! Am not the best student in uni, so likewise in the office. But still I tried my best and alhamdulillah, it wasn't that bad.

Iris is already a handful, she's almost 9 months and can already do a lot of stuff. She can crawl really fast now, sit by herself at any position, and is trying really hard to stand by herself. Org melayu kata "meniti". Hopefully she can walk soon, yeaa!!







Tomorrow we have a photoshoot by yellow cow studio. I bought a really great deal from milkadeal, rm75 for 1 hour outdoor shoot with 10 printed 4r and 2 8r, plus cd for the whole session. Best kan? Can't wait!!

New Venture

I am currently involving in a new adventure, a new partnership.. It was actually my dream business but being a scholar to the company I have to serve the company for 5 more years before I could actually pursue my dream. Alhamdulillah with the grace from Allah, I saw an opportunity when a good friend of mine started the business..so I volunteered to be a partner. After some discussion and going around seeking for a good location we found a small but sufficient place for us newbies to start off. I will post pictures of our new venture.........

What is the future gonna be?

Being a mummy, we'll automatically feel very protective towards our baby. At least that's what i feel all the time. I want the best for my lil baby. Everybody says, our baby is the reflection of ourself..hmmm i am quite worried with that statement hehehehe. Well, i am not exactly the best person in the world, not the best daughter, not the best friend...but i try really hard to be the best for my husband and my baby. I remembered my experience during high school. It was a very difficult time for me. I am adjusting to being away from family, trying to look for my own identity, trying to make new friends...and i failed. It was really bad until at one point of time i crumbled, my grades dropped and i became very defensive and lonely. There was one time this teacher told me that i couldn't be successful in the future, apela cikgu ni...cikgu bukan kene bagi sokongan moral ke?
Takpela... after that chapter, i tried looking for myself, not trying to be someone that others want me to be...but to be my true self..muhasabah diri. I collected myself and removed all the negativity in me, and try to look at the brighter side of life. My uni life is much more happier and fulfilling because i stick to being myself and doing what i love to do...despite all the remarks or rumours spread by my highschool mates ( yg belajar sama uni), i proudly be myself and alhamdulillah i managed to succeed. Hello cikgu, saya berjaya ok!! Only Allah knows how strong i was to be where i am now.
Even though i managed to go through all these, i do not want my baby to go through what i've been through. I want her to lead a simple and successful life...the way she wants it to be...not like some other person wants her to be. Hopefully, me as a mummy i will always be supportive and positive to her...i want to be her bestfriend for life. Iris, kita jadi bestfriend ok? Mummy nak Iris jadi anak yang solehah, insan yg bijak and baik budi pekerti..semoga kita jadi bestfriend sampai bila2...i pray the best of everything to you my dear baby... i love u dear...

Iris's achievements & Selamat Pengantin Baru Onnie!

Iris is 3 months and 3 weeks already! She is quite a handful now, moving a lot and very demanding. However as she grows, the tantrums reduced alhamdulillah. Berkat bacaan ayat2 lazim such as 3 quls, Kursi, Insyirah every now and then. She is a very happy baby, smiles a lot and laugh aloud happily whenever she watches cartoons or when we make funny faces. At night, after her night feed she straight away sleeps soundly through out the night. She didn't have any problem sleeping by herself in her cot. We have also travelled around Malaysia with Iris, she has been to Cameron Highlands, Kulai Johor, and all major shopping complexes in KL hehehe. Alhamdulillah she loves her car seat and had no problem travelling long journey. Maybe we can plan for an oversea trip ye daddy hehehehe.


Iris penat melayan tetamu at Onnie's reception

Mummy suka dress-up Iris hehehe


Iris loves her carrier


Weight wise she is not that tembam or gedebot. I think because she's a breastfed baby so her milk is digested well and the nutrients she's getting is not too much, just nice for her needs. The doctor said it's good because nowadays there's a lot of obesity problem even with babies...kesian...owh, one major acheivement is.....she rolled over yesterdayyy!!! yeay! without assistance and witnessed by nenek as mummy was at work, sobsob! she has been turning to her sides and i know the rolling over is coming, but i never thought that it would be this fast hehe. Congrats darling, mummy loves u soo much! No pictures because she cried after the success hehe, tangan tersepit and terkejut kot. So nenek xsempat snap! *frust*


Iris, nenek, onnie and ponnie


Cantik kan? Dress by Hatta Dolmat


On other event, i would like to wish Selamat Pengantin Baru to my cousin Annenurziella aka Onnie...semoga berbahagia bersama Ekhsan aka Ponnie hehehe. Semoga jodoh anda diberkati and dimurahkan rezeki selalu..what i like about this couples is that they are soooo sweet! i just love the way Ekhsan convey his love to Onnie..very honest and straight to the point hehe. I can see love love love in their pictures together, because i didnt have a chance to lepak with them as a couple. Pesan ku kepada kalian, bersabarla menghadapi masa depan yg penuh dugaan, insyaAllah dengan kasih sayang and doa kepada Allah, semuanya akan ok! aminnnn


Selamat Pengantin Baru!

Memories in Friendster

I was so bored that I went through almost all the pictures in my laptop. Then I remember I have a few old photos in Friendster. I opened up my Friendster account. Wow, it was like a walk down memory lane. I went through a couple mails in my Friendster. I remember all the new friends I made (and lost), all the relationships I had and ended, heartache with ex, my ex-best friend, relationship with a non-existing girl (complicated to write about it).

While I was browsing my non-active account, there was 1 friendster profile that caught my eyes. The profile was ZairulAsrah. Actually, since the final year of my university days, I have already had my eyes on her but I did not approach since she was not available (neither was I).

When I think about it, maybe God was preparing myself for this one special person and in order to do that I had to go through all of the relationships I had and heartache I had to go through to appreciate this one special person. Alhamdulillah, I am very thankful that happened because the relationship I have with this special person is so special and could not be compared with my previous ones. I love her so much with all my heart and really think of her as my soulmate. We are very much alike (except my perut is bigger). Now, we are married with our new born daughter, Iris and as they say, the rest is history....


PS: I love you so much, Zairul Asrah....

Shaklee for breastfeeding mommies

I was introduced to the trial pack for breasfeeding mommies by my good friend Puan Nurul Aula the first day i started working. I am always fascinated in being healthy and trying out new things, so why not? It doesn't hurt trying right? Plus i am passionate in breastfeeding and always strive to give the best to my daughter insyaAllah..

Before Shaklee

I used to be very exhausted and drained due to my baby constantly wakes up at night for feeding. As I mentioned before she's quite a drinker! So i'll wake up around 10am the earliest everyday during confinement. Apart from that, i pumped whenever i'm free to keep stocks, however the volume is standard, not too low not too high, because i am using a good pump which suits me. I ended up feeling tired and cranky at the end of the day. So i wonder, how would it be when i start working..i bet it would be worse. and i dread the thought about it!

After Shaklee

After 2 weeks of consuming the trial pack which includes Vitamin C, B complex, Vitalea and Alfalfa, i started to see the result. My volume of milk increases and it maintains even though i pumped 3 times a day. Even after my daughter's Subuh feeding i would get at least 7oz and could reach to 10 oz during the morning pumping session + 5 oz each at least during session #2 and #3. My milk colour is yellower compared to the previous ones and to my friends' due to the vitamins. Apart from that, i am very energetic during working hours and i don't feel sleepy or fatigue. My friends are my witness hehehe. As for my daughter she'll only wake up once for feeding or if she breastfeeds right before bedtime, she'll sleep all the way to the morning. It's also easier for me to put her to sleep. She's a happy baby now! She is also developing really well but not to the extend of obesity.


I know every baby has their own pace of development and everybody has different reactions towards vitamins. As for me alhamdulillah, Shaklee vitamins works excellent! Though i wasn't a keen vitamins consumer, the result of consuming these vitamins makes me an avid vitamin consumer hehehehe. Thanks to Aula for introducing me to Shaklee!! To others who wishes to try you can contact Aula at +60122522007 or visit her website http://www.aulawrites.blogspot.com/ . The trial pack is only rm80!

Rezeki Iris this morning, alhamdulillah...


p/s - not promoting because she's a good friend, but because it works for me and i want to share with you!

My routine

Hello semua...


To fullfil a friend of mine, Pial's request about my routine...here it goes...

5 am - Wakey-wakey, my natural alarm clock aka iris will normally wake up around this time
for feeding. Apart from that she normally merengek for milk at 3am.

5.30 am - Done feeding iris, changed her diaper and buk-buk her until she sleeps

5.45 am - Mummy mandi2, solat Subuh and siap2 to work

6.30 am - Prepare the EBM for the day and kiss2, play2 with Iris

6.45 am - Bye Iris, Mummy pegi keje ok.. ( I am staying in Puchong and works in KL, thus the
need to bangun awal and gerak awal )

7.45 am - Sampai ofis, letak barang and minum plain water ( nak pump better hydrate yourself)

8 am - #1 Pump session

8.30 am - Breakfast, take my vitamins and start working ( Drink lots of water in between)

12 noon - #2 Pump session

12.30 - Lunch

1.30 pm - Solat Zuhur

2 pm - Work and work

4 pm - #3 Pump session (The best is to pump 3 times a day to signal your body to produce
large amount of milk)

4.30 pm - Solat Asar

5 pm - Balik!


Normally i will pump one more time at night if my B is engorged. As for the EBM, i will prepare 3 bottles (4-5 oz) from yesterday's session plus 2 more ( 3-4 oz) from the stock prepared during confinement. This is to ensure Iris is getting enough nutrients, this is because EBM which were frozen longer time will lose some of it's nutrients, but still much better than formula.

So..that's basically my everyday routine. I follow this time religiously because if i do miss any of the timing, alamatnye balik lambat and lambat la jumpe my angel!





Haihh...macamane la mummy x rindu...

January 10, 2011

Kekurangan masa

I've started working a week ago, and i tell you it's difficult for me to manage my time. This is because i need to allocate pumping time for 3 times a day and every session normally takes half an hour. I have to start my day very early everyday now. Apart from waking up in the middle of the night for feeding, i will start my day at 5am. I need to arrange the frozen EBM (expressed breast milk) for the day and then i need to prepare my daughter apart from getting ready for work. Previously i doubt i have enough energy to last the day, but alhamdulillah...still standing strong y'all.
My EBM stock is still in abundance alhamdulillah. Everyday i manage to pump up to 15 oz (standard amount) and sometimes i can get more. I am not sure whether it's considered a lot or not but as for now it's enough for my daugthers' consumption. Now my best friend Aula supplied me with supplements from shaklee which she said could boost my energy and increase my milk supply. This morning i managed to pump 8-9 oz in 20 minutes, i guess the supplements helped, however i need to monitor still to be really sure or else i could be telling rumours hehehe.
Hubby is away to Oman and kesian him, he is currently down with chicken pox (apela dah tua2 baru kene). I think it's better for him to be there rather than here, or else nanti baby plak infected kan..hmm...take care dear, we miss you a lot! Looking forward to our webcam session everyday!

Rindu





Tu la gambar anak aku, Iris Afrina yang dalam perut ibunya sebelum ini. bile lahir, memang muka mcm tu. comel sgt. lagi2 bile die ckp "wuku". aku sendiri tak tahu ape maksud "wuku" dlm bahasa die tapi bile aku ckp "wuku" balik, die balas balik. sekarang ni aku kat oman and aku rindu sgt isteri aku and anak aku. padahal baru 1 hari aje kat sini. lama lagi ni nak buat keje kat sini. nasib baik la cuaca sini tak sepanas masa aku dtg dulu.winter sejuk skit. aku sedang kelaparan sebab tak breakfast lagi. kalau kat msia, time ni la aku beli breakfast nasi lemak or mee goreng untuk keluarga aku. pagi2 tgk tv dgn dieorg. wah,rindunya.....
