Product Review: Snoozaboo Baby Sleep bag

Assalammualaikum dan Selamat Sejahtera,

Baru-baru ini salah seorang Facebook friend menghubungi saya nak suruh saya 'drive test' dan bagi review one of the product yg company dia jual, baby sleep bag (bag tidur bayi) SNOOZABOO. OK, saya tak pernah dengar pun pasal kewujudan beg ini (selain dari sleeping bag yang saya guna masa aktif mendaki gunung suatu ketika dahulu). So why not give it a try la kan...

First impression masa dapat tu, waahhhhhhh.... kemasnya jahitan dan applique pada bag tidur yang saya terima tu ( heheheh biasalaaa since saya ni part time tukang jahit dan part time tukang sulam) of course lah benda tu yg saya tengok dulu kan...  Ohh beg tidur ini ada dua pilihan mengikut tahap kepanasan bilik bayi. 0.5 tog sesuai untuk bilik tiada penghawa dingin atau untuk tidur petang manakala 1.0tog dengan ketebalan sederhana sesuai untuk bilik dengan penghawa dingin.  Saya memilih 0.5tog, ketebalan yg sesuai dengan keadaan rumah saya yang tiada penghawa dingin dan sedikit panas.

Nak tahu review saya? BEST SANGAT!

Beg tidur ni panjaaaaaaaaaang, very roomy... tengoklah ruang dalam beg tidur berbanding kepanjangan baby Hafiy. Hehehehe, kita tengok pun boleh tahu keselesaannya. Bukaannya juga luas dengan zip yang mudah ditarik.So, nak letak Hafiy dalam tu tersangatlah mudahnya.

 

Panjang kan?

Hafiy posing dengan beg tidur bayi Snoozaboo

Beg tidur bayi ni acts as selimut laa.. cuma kalau selimut tu memang agak adventure nak guna dengan budak tidur buas (read:lasak) ni..sure sekejap jaaa dah di tendang ke mana. Selama ni pun saya perasan, Hafiy tak suka tidur berselimut sama la jugak dengan abang Hadiff dan kakak Husna.. Tapi dengan beg selimut ni mmg selesa jaa nampak.. Tak caya? Tengoklaa kat bawah tu..hehehhe.. Lentok baeeeeekkkk punya. :D

Personally bagi saya, beg tidur ini lebih selamat digunakan pada bayi jika dibandingkan dengan selimut biasa. Less suffocation risk. Jangan tak tahu beg tidur bayi Snoozaboo ni comply with British Standard BS 8510:2009. Pergh!! I don't even know such standard exist!! Baguskan....

Cara nak basuh? Campak sahaja di dalam mesin basuh..hehhehe

PINTEREST : My new addiction

If you never heard about PINTEREST, well you miss something good from the net.
Gosh..it is my new addiction and it makes my life easier!
Pinterest is actually a virtual bookmarking and social networking (just like facebook), similar to bookmarking in the internet explorer or firefox, but the best thing is all the bookmark pages are compiled in one web (i'm a IT noob, don't know the correct term to it).
But the word use in PINTEREST is PIN instead of bookmark..it is like you pin something on your BOARD.
You can retrieve back your bookmark pages in any computer unlike the typical bookmarking that bound in a specific dedicated computer.
Apart from this. you can share what you have found in the net with...almost everyone that share same passion or hobby..well..like me who just started in sewing..I managed to collect thousand of free sewing tutorials in the net!!

From WIKIPEDIA

Pinterest (Pin-tũr-ĕst) is a vision board-styled social photo sharing website and app where users can create and manage theme-based image collections. The mission statement of Pinterest is to connect everyone in the world through shared tastes and the “things” they find interesting. Pinterest is managed by a team based out of Palo Alto, California. Noted entrepreneurs and investors include: Jack Abraham, Michael Birch, Scott Belsky, Shana Fisher, Ron Conway, Kevin Hartz, Jeremy Stoppelman, Hank Vigil, and Fritz Lanman.


To date, I had pinned 1585 pins in 30boards!! That's quite impressive for a person who just register...hehhehe
Let me show you what I have in my pinterest.
You will be amaze of what I've found.

You can log in using facebook ID.
Most of my PINS are on sewing and stuff for my kids.
Those that FOLLOWING me (no approval required..hahahah), can actually see what I've pinned.
It is like sharing what we have found.
As to date, I have 77FOLLOWERs (most of them from the States) and I'm FOLLOWING 118 people.

Pinterest makes it easy to retrieve free tutorial or just browsing looking at random photos.
I can also download PINTEREST apps in my iphone...definitely a nice pass time activity...hehehehe

Gosh...I can't believe that I'm yet to share my PINTEREST...

Why People Are Obsessed

Pinterest combines two of the most compelling elements of social media: visual content and sharing who you are. Oh, and everything looks really pretty…

MaCaRoOn?- No ThAnKs

 Finally, after a high and low search on macaroon yg femes sangat tu,
I found SUGARBUD CAKES located near to my house at Bertam Perdana, a home based bisness by a nice lady/ WAHM mom.
I bought these at RM25 <--RM3 discounted from the actual RP <-thanks dear.
Please, do not ask me the flavor, I have no idea, eventhough she told me earlier.
I didn't really care as I never tasted any before...:p
The macs were nicely packed with red ribbon tied on the hard container.
I told her earlier that I may not like macaroon as I'm not a sweet tooth person.
She told me that there are 2 methods of preparing macaroons and the one that she made for me is sweeter compare to the other method. (don't ask me the name of those..:p)

 

 The macaroons

 

Cantik kalernyaa

She also gave me 2 shells of the less sweet macaroons..

My verdict:-

1)As expected, erk? I felt like eating raw sugar!! Too sweet to my liking.
2) The sweetness of the shell was too overwhelming up to the level I couldn't figure out the taste of the filling.
3) I couldn't differentiate the taste between those techniques as well.

I managed to eat one of each colour and had to drink 2 glasses of cold water and ate  kopok bantal to get rid off the sugary taste. Dear Hubby felt the same too (much expected from a person who drink averything 'O' and air suam).

Sorry dear, I may be your return customer..may be next time we have more time to know each other well.
but macaroon? NO THANKS! :)

GrOViA CoNvErTeD

You heard it right, I am or in a better word, Husna is 100% a Grovia converted.
She cannot wear any synthetic fibre anymore. :(
That means no common pocket cloth diaper that use synthetic fibre as the liner (fleece or suede) for her.
But that really makes me wonder, as she seemed OK with synthetic fibre before.
She had no problem wearing it when she was a newborn up until hmm....last month when her skin had showed symptom of allergy.
Hahahaha, may be she inherits that from me.:p

I turned to Grovia when her rashes vanished when she wore Grovia.
So without hesitation, I started to stock up this diaper.
I was lucky as several momma had arranged  Group Buy, bought directly from the whole seller in US.
So the price is cheaper than buying from local shops.

This is my personal review on Grovia diaper.
Why I love Grovia :-
1- My daughter is allergic to synthetic fiber, therefore she can only wear Grovia as it is made of organic cotton.
2- Super trim on her.
3- Generous sizing with plenty of room for her growing bum.
4- Grovia design is brilliant and excellent, with super absorbent soaker, I never experience any leakage eventhough wearing Grovia since she was a new born.
5- Lovely cute fancy prints that match her outfits.
6- Definitely made of highest quality material, durable hence worth every penny spent.
7- I love AI2 system, hassle free and traveling friendly with lot less luggage.
8- Save water save electricity as the shell is reusable hence save the environment!



I started with a Grovia Experience package from Tiny Tapir, that was 1 year ago.
2 shells and 4 soakers.



Now I have,
6 shells and 22 soakers!! Hehehheheh
And definitely will grow more. :)

Hmmm, what should I do with those pocket CD?
I have 15 of them...

Product Review : Rockin' Green Detergent

Recently, I arranged a group buy in Malaysian Cloth Diapering Parents to buy this detergent ROCKIN GREEN.
They had in on sale during recent Great Cloth Diaper Change.
Since then, I heard a lot of good reviews on this detergent that it works wonder to clear stinky smell from cloth diapers.
Therefore, without hesitation, I arranged for a group buy to bring in 120 sample packs and shared among us to save shipping cost. (Shipping alone costed us USD44!!)

Some infos on ROCKIN GREEN

Rockin’ Green is made of safe, phosphate free ingredients which makes it good for the planet and gentler on your little ones. Everything is made with love, and put to the test every single day on my own families diapers and laundry. So you know that I expect only the best from everything that I send out the door.
Ingredients: sodium carbonate , sodium percarbonate, natural chelating agents, sodium sulfate, biodegradable surfactants, natural fragrance oils (if scented is chosen).

It comes in 3 formula depending on our type of water (we chose classic).
And also several scents.

My own verdict:-
I only use this detergent for cloth diaper laundry.
Well, since it is very difficult to get and of course EXPENSIVE.
Initially I wanted to restrict the usage for strip washing only but feel that I can still use the 6packs of sample for along time.
My cloth diaper routine is once in every 3days (it is a full load of washing machine)
I soak it for 3hours and using normal cycle as opposed to former setting, speedy cycle.

My usual water level is 51, (I had it set at 41 last night as I only had half load laundry, and I forgot to press soaking for 3 hours :p).
ONLY 1 AND HALF SPOON of detergent is used.
Upon completing the washing cycle, the cloth diapers come out clean with NO SMELL at all!!
Not even a hint of ammonia or even the scent of the detergent :p.
OK.
The cloth diapers are usually line dry under my porch (with no direct sun).
The result?
I love this.. it really rids off all the stinky smell from the diapers.
And I noticed that  the usual urine smell that sometimes lingering after 1 hour of diapering has totally gone.

LOVING this detergent to max.
IT IS MY ULTIMATE CLOTH DIAPER DETERGENT!!

Pst: I believe these 6 sample packs will last me for another 6months.
I will definitely arrange another group buy if local stores do not able to import this great detergent in their stores.

BeStBotTOm CD

I just bought this cloth diaper via a group buy in Malaysian Cloth Diapering Parents ( a verrrryy dangerous fb group that can make you go bankrupt :p).

We bought the diaper from Nicki's Diapers.
You can read all the features and description in the page.
Well actually I didn't know that this BestBottom is actually a A12. Blame me for not bothering with the research or even reading through the website. I was captivated with the prints the PINK GIRAFFE.
I thought it just another pocket diaper which I'd gradually stop buying.
When I received it I was like "yeay!!! it is a AI2!"
The thing is, we didn't buy the soaker as it may cause the shipping more.
So, we ended up buying the cover only.
I only have 2 AI2 brands in my stash. Grovia and Bamboolite.


Please click on the picture to enlarge it.

The shell is considerable thicker compare to normal PUL pocket CD.
Wish it will not prone to delamination in later days.
There are two snap buttons in the shell to snap in the soaker.
I'd tried with bamboolite insert but the buttons are not match. Both are female buttons.
Then I placed Grovia soaker in it and taaadaaaa.. yeay!! it fits in nicely.
Not that the snap is compatible but the length/width are so perfect.
I love the gusset on the shell, if I were to have a newborn in the future (plss ya mr asben...hehhehe), I will definitely hunt for this more.
The gusset is soo nicely made and I do believe it can contain explosive exclusive breastfeeding runny poo.
With double protection of Grovia gusset, you don't have to worry on leaks.

Next bonus is, Husna still on M setting, so giving more room for a growing bum. :)
Yesterday, she wore it for a good 5 hours with her sitting in a SSC during IKEA shopping and 3 hours drive on my lap.
No leaks no smell escaped.
In short, I'm loving it!!

SnUggBaBy mT - PrOtOtYpE

This is traveling carrier by Snuggbaby.
Liza who is the owner of Snuggbaby produced this sample for her coming newborn (due this month!).
This mei tai is inspired by a foreign brand Freehand Mei Tai.
Suitable for newborn and small babies.
I love the colour and the fabric it was made of, it feels so soft against the skin.
My only comment is, the strap is not longer enough for me almaklumlahhh debabs lani <<--guess still have tons (bluekk) of post partum fat.
I could not do lexi twist and tie at the back which is I prefer to do.
And
may be Husna is too big for legs in but still small for legs out.
The base width appears wider and cause one leg to be slightly straighten <--the legs should be in 'M' shape.

CJ MeRLOt tO Go

Simple and comfy brought by Comfy Joey.
This is a visiting sling, Temp Trade with Miza.
She offered me this sling to be temp traded with my Jumpsac Jungle Birds on Kiwi.




Product Review
- the fabric is linen, so no doubt it is a comfortable sling (I would say much more than a silk sling), another plus point is it is very durable. So can lanyak everyday.
-Length wise - just nice with me in T2T yet to try cradle carry, but definitely longer than my Hunur (I should measure the length - owe Miza this)
- Love the colour combo, wine/teal.. I would imagine myself in jeans and t-shirt with this sling.

Miza, dibs!! :-)

I never been apart from my JS sling..it has been very useful and it has gained so much love from me.

Miss it already..

dengan surat cinta lagi tuk miza..heheheh

This is one of my recent ISO
which has been generously answered, offered by a MBW member
eventhough my original ISO is Fields of Gold,
this one appears to be similar eventhough not exact.
And I am very grateful for that.
Thanks Pah!




















Product Review
- I love the shining shimmering material of the dupioni silk, and that is the reason why this sling is only meant for occasion sling and recommended to be worn sparingly. It does look luxurious in real life.
- I love the accent tail with those details and handmade embroidery. It does not look 'heavy', it is simple and just nice for a mom of two whom the eldest son may be interested to pull out the sequins.
- Owh the shoulder style is so comfy. Not sure what type of the shoulder though.
- I wish the tail is slightly longer, looks more feminine.
- Easy to thread eventhough the silk is slightly stiff (as compared to my SBP Custom Silk)

Dibs? The ex-owner has dibs back this sling.. :-)

NuRsInG BlOuSe #1

Preface
Okes, raya mood is finally here..yeap after a kuih making session last weekend and a ketumpat palas preps last night, the raya mood is finally here..yeay!! Aikk what this mood raya has to do with the topic? Well, when there is raya mood, so less other mood (read:work) ..ngeh..ngeh..ngeh.. not that I have much to do at this moment..IYKWIM *wink*.

I am back to 8 to 5 routine work after my 2 months maternity leave (which feel not enough) and means that I am allowable to cruise in shopping complexes and parks. And just exactly like after I just had HadiffBolat, I feel that my wardrobe has to be changed. New baby means new clothes, new style ..bla..bla..bla.. or it just me with extra pounds and spare tires.

This time I am focusing more on nursing blouse..means.. buy..buy..buy... if I can find any that catches my eyes.. in the net of course. I had a tough time to find a good one last time but now I am grateful to know that there are many muslimah nursing blouse. I just bought one from aqeela and one more on the way from Ilham.

Aqeela nursing blouse #1

Pic credit to aqeela-muslimah.com

Bought from HERE.
I love the top nursing opening, easy access to you know what.
Last time, I had one nursing blouse which I really hate (I gave it away). I had to pull the front layer , then pull in the opening in second layer, then unhook my bra. Too much hassle.
But this nursing blouse offers generous opening, therefore I do not have to dig out you know what. I just pull up slightly the plain white layer and unhook my nursing bra. Easy peasy..
A part from that, I just fall in love with the fabric..it is cotton, cool, thin but not see through.
A muslimah t-shirt with long sleeve and the length is nicely until my hip.
Another bonus is the fabric motive which is feminine and look lovely on the wearer ke perasaan sahaja
But... I am kind of hate the string..see the above photo. I have to fiddle with the string before I can pull up the front layer, I prefer it to be a button instead, you know like a baju kurung, but not like those nursing blouse with a row of buttons!


This nursing blouse makes my Nursing-In-Public a smooth sailing and I do not have to rush to find a nursing room or any isolated corner. I can be a proud breastfeeding Ummi!!


That is all for now. I will do more reviews if I buy more nursing blouse. :-P
Care to share on what is your favourite nursing blouse and where to get it?

Thanks!!
Selamat Hari Raya!!

I had the chance to try another sling I have.. Mamaway ring sling, a prize I received when I won the slogan contest during 2009 Babywearing Week.

Location : Parkson Grand, Sungai Petani
Babywearing gear : Mamaway Cotton Ring Sling
Wearee : Baby Husna


Review:
1- It is a nylon ring, I am used to aluminium ring, but this ring is surprisingly grippy to the fabric.
2 - Easy threading, in fact much easier compare to SBP Ring Sling.
3- Once wear it, it is quite difficult to spread the fabric at the shoulder.
4- Slip!! See where the ring has fallen to, it suppose to be properly located at corsage position.
5- I could feel the pressure point at my back after a while..
6- But I love the colour.

Anyway, since dapat free kann (which comes together with a CD <--xpernah bukak tengok pun), I am going to keep this..though I might grab other sling on the way out.

SLEePiNg BaBy pRoDuCtioN sILk RS

Tak abis lagi pantang okeh..but I decided to go to Jakel SP for kain baju raya hunting (which sadly could not find).. and buy some kitchen stuff at Tesco and Mr Asben wanted to eat Radix Fried Chicken yg dah lama he craved.

Wore Husna in SBP Ring Sling.. my new-to-me bw gear and I am the fourth owner of this beautiful sling. Surprisingly, it was so easy to put Husna inside it compare to my Jumpsac ring sling (or may be I have mastered the newborn legs in babywearing). Husna fell asleep immediately.

Husna looks so kecik inside the sling

Tembamnya muka..bilaa laa nak slim sikit.

Review:-
1- The size of the sling is S and I am not a petite mommy :P. I guess since this sling is produced in USA, the size must be bigger for Asian mommies. In my case, the length of the tail is just nice with the tail ends at my hips.
2- I love the sheen of the silk... the colour is so soft and sweet.
3- Easy threading with medium ring.
4- Ringan sangat sling ni and very thin..silk kann..when folded I can just put it in my handbag.
5- IMHO, this sling is only suitable for newborn or small baby as it is not a padded shoulder like Jumpsac sling. It may produce pressure point.

In the nutshell, I love this sling!

We need a bouncer, not now but eventually we will need a bouncer.

Why?Taska Ilham uses bouncer for the babies.. I am very grateful for that as Taska Ilham does not use Buaian..takutkan dengar banyak cerita pasal buaian ni kan?
But since, we had discarded Hadiff's bouncer yg dah takleh guna tu..dah patah rioq, and
instead of buying a cheap bouncer (murah2 pun mau dekat seratus gak) and plus we did not spend much for Husna as most of the things can be recycled... we decided to buy an expensive Fisher Price Rocker (expensive for me laa).

I searched the net looking for sales.. banyak o9 shop bg diskaun.. and of course I looked for free shipping.. (save the traveling expenses, time and I have looked around before in supermarket, memang susah nak ada diskaun).. so since the sales ada dateline, trus beli without much hesitation.

masa bukak kotak..adeyy..mampukah me pasang sendiri benda alah ni..

how I wish Mr Asben is around..

Tadaaa... boleh jugak ekk Puan Rozy nih pasang..

Husna leh laa merasmikan rocker dia smpy pukul 6.30ptg ja,
nanti Abang Hadiff balik, bg Abang Hadiff conquer ya nak..

Nak wat product review, tp nothing much to say yet.
The application seems interesting since can be used from newborn to toddler.
Will write about this later.

Manalaa nak cari botol susu nih?

Sejak Hadiff dah no more on nenen and EBM, saya dah tukar botol susu Hadiff..yalahh dulu sekali hadap cuma 4oz sebotol X 4botol..lani dah 7oz sekali hadap..since dari setat tahu preggie Hadiff saya ada beli set Tupperware TIWI tu..saya guna yang tu lahh..lagipun masa tu dapat diskaun habis-habisan cuma RM52/set..

Apa yang saya suka pasal botol nih:-
1- BPA Free..guna PP material
2- Wall thickness botol tu tebal dan up to my standard..tak macam botol susu BPA Free yang kat supermarket tu (cap Ana***, cap Pure**) terlalu nipis dan buat saya tak konfiden jaa..
3- Wide neck senang kalau nak masukkan susu tepung dalam botol tanpa tumpah..(me kan cemerkap sikit)..dan saya suka kacau guna camca dalam tu..
4- Wide neck dia fit dengan any standard puting..so puting murah2 pun no hal..no leak.
5- Kaler dia menawan s>..very eye catching dengan neck yg berkaler2 kannn..
6- Warmer dia memang perform abih.... really like it.
7- Kalu rosak leh tukar yg baru..(walaupun amik masa berjanggut gak rr nak dapat replacement)

Cuma yg saya kurang suka adalah..printing dia yg cepat terkeluar..and no warranty for that... (sedeyynyaa..hukhukhuk)

Now it time to change the botol..dah almost 6 months dah guna dan one of the bottles printing dia memang almost vanished!

But the problem is..mana nak cari BOTOL SAHAJA..means me tak mau warmer dah..kalau dapat BODY dia sahaja lagi okeh..

Sapa2 tahu? Please..manalaa tau kot ada tokey2 tepawer kat sini kan...

or ada tak sapa2 nak warmer dia sahaja? But not sure leh ka dak masukkan botol lain dalam tu.. so leh rr saya beli dan devide rega..

Terima kasih na..

Wahh kagummmnyaaa!!!

First...jangan kata me peghak naaa (kalau xpaham maksud peghak sila rujuk kamus orang utagha)
Second..jangan kata me ciwi naa

Sebab.. me tersangat kagumss dengan invention nih...
walaupun ramai ja yg dah lama guna..
tapi for me yang pestaim mencuba...well you know what i mean..hehehhehe

Apalahh yg dimeraban nih..
Me just got my purchase from Bizkizz Collection
Sebelum ni asik dok terfikir camnalaaa dia berfunction
Me now one of the beg holder owners..yeay!!!
Kagum ahh! leh sangkut beg kat meja
So no more letak beg kat belakang masa makan
no more letak beg atas lantai
no more letak beg atas paha
Me now can gantung

Not only that...Makcik Rehan aka the Tawkey also gave me free gift!!
Dapat Brooch baru tu... i looiikeee!!


To be able to hold my super large bag and not to mention heavy, it is quite surprising..

BiO OiL AnD My pReGnAnCy

I had a tough time during my pregnancy last time..I mean on the strech marks and icthiness of my bulging belly. During that time, I did not look for any info on how to eliminate the problem from the mag or internet. Just based on my kakak kilang experience only. They said just buy a lotion and start scrubbing it at the bottom of my belly as well as at paha and at the back side.So I just bought a cheap lotion with apple scent from Tupperware. But it did not work well, I mean I still have the scratch marks that my hubby always commented look like a cheetah.. adeyy...

Influenced by the advertisements on TV that this magical oil can help to yada..yada..yada, I thought of giving it a try..

My testimonial after been using it for 1 month (recommended to use it consistently for 3 months for scar removal)
Oiliness - I found it quite surprising as after the application, my belly does not "feel" oily neither my palm. It does moisturize the skin and less itchy (no that it can eliminate it 100%)
Scent - I am that type of person who hates product with fragrance accept of course perfume. Bio Oil does emit a light "oil" scent but not really disturbing.
Scratch mark removal - My scratch mark tone seems (or is it my imigination?) to lighten. But I cannot confirm this as my belly is actively expanding and may stretch my skin.

Is Bio Oil halal?
Bio Oil does not contain any animal derivative. It is basically mineral oils, herbs oil, and synthetic oil.

This is my first not DIY ring sling (first means more to come?).. I really love this sling as it is padded at the shoulder and the large ring makes the threading much easier.. No more slipping macam guna my DIY No sew ring sling.. The hidden pocket is brilliant as I can store my compact powder and lipstick... but not using it for my purse as heavy item if allow it to dangle may cause it feel heavier (faham kah?). Hadiff is used to ring sling and pouch so he doesn't have any problem sitting in it..

I would definitely recommend this ring sling to first timer.

PrOdUcT ReViEw- SsC BoBa OrGaNiC

Received CHESTNUT BOBA ORGANIC last weekend..never had a chance to test it as we were soo busy attending kenduris.. Last nite we took pics at Stesen Keretapi Parit Buntaq tengah2 malam buta.

I can't compare to any SSC as never try any...being a first timer to SSC, I would say:-
1- easy to wear front carry, never had chance to try back carry
2- Feel so tak fehpening feminin compares to wearing ring sling
3- Comfy and so soft
4 - Hadiff cam restless sikit lam ni, may be tak pernah try kot.. he soo used to sling and pouch...
5- I did not feel the weight as it is greatly distributed.

In short, I would say this is a worth buying!! But I guess, only Mr Asben will be the wearer..not mee... xlaratlaa nak bawak hadiff..

REVIEW : Cloth Diaper - Between KS, HH and Coolababy

Before you start reading this post, I would like to emphasize that this is merely my personal review based on my experience. Definitely does not shadowed by any commercial intention.

I have been using cloth diapers religiously now, 100% on day time and almost 100% nite time ( almost because sometimes I could be struck by lazy lightning.. so xcukup to cover the whole day..hehehhe). So far in my collection, I have 8 of CB (coolababy), 1 HH (Happy Heiny's cow print, I love it so I bought it, found it to be really expensive) and just recently added in a KS (Kasihku Sayangku), just for trial.

Herewith my personal humble review of these three CD.
Coolababy (red), KS (yellow), HH (cow prints)

1- Sizing

From biggest to smallest arrangement
HH> KS > CB
HH has a generous sizing.. it can be fitted from baby to toddler.. but I found it to be bulky for newborn.. apart of the RM a piece.. this CD can be a worth investment for a long run. KS sizing is almost similar to CB.

2- Waist Adjustment
HH - Velcro
KS - Velcro
CB - Snap button
I prefer the snap button as the adjustment is prefixed. "Tick" the button...settle.. KS velcro is definitely a thumb down.. senang terbuka.. and I found it to be disturbing.. Sibek Hadiff still kecik lagi..if he knows how to tarik2..sure dah terbukak CD nih..

3- Insert/Pocket Opening
HH and CB is a daddy's big hand friendly user.. Though KS opening appears to be neat than HH and CB, the pocket is surprisingly narrow.

4- Material
HH and CB have the microfleece layer..but HH material felt softer while CB will eventually turn to yellowish after sometime. KS has a suede cloth that I found to be difficult to get rid of poo poo.
Prints of HH is delicous.. (ehh??)

5- Marks on delicate baby skin
KS leaves obvious marks on Hadiff.. CB also but not as apparent as KS. HH? Not that I notice..

Which one is better? Value for money?
The true is..I do not have any particular preferences.. Up to you to judge..
But the main reason we choose CD instead of Dispo.. ..
SAVE THE MONEY and SAVE THE ENVIRONMENT..

Till then..
