Normally how much do you spend a month for diapers n formula milk? For me it's not only a monthly routine bcoz it's continuous depending on the stock left at our home. Ilyas wears Mamy Poko n Pureen Dry 5 Premium. Saya pun tak pernah kira dlm sebulan tu berapa byk duit habis khas utk restock diapers n fm Ilyas. Kalo beli brg keperluan anak biasanya saya n hubby akan bayar 50:50. Sharing is caring! :pBasically the cheapest I could get for Mamy Poko is RM29.90 (during promotion). Paling mahal pernah beli Mamy Poko pada harga RM35.90 sbb masa tu Pureen saiz L tak available kat Manjaku, so terpaksa beli! I could get Pureen for RM27.90 at Manjaku n please don't buy it at Carrefour bcoz it's RM35.90! Dulu ingat lagi 1st time suruh my sis belikan Pureen n shocked with the price, gila beza byk tu harga dia!
Bab fm pula dulu pernah nak beli kat Giant n SA tu boleh ckp "akak jgn beli kat sini sbb sini susu mahal"..huhu..so cancel beli sbb masa tu tkde experience bab harga. Puas survey termasuk kat kedai sensei finally I found the cheapest Anmum Step 2 at Pasaraya Darussalam (near Dapur Mas Presint 9) for only RM42.55 a box! Previously don't bother about it but actually parents have to do a lil bit of calculation. Kalo beli 1 box ok la but what if 4-5 boxes??? Lagipun sekotak susu Ilyas bertahan tak sampai 1 week (normally 5 days dah habis).
Bila ada anak baru tahu mcm mana nak manage our expenses utk keperluan anak. Saya bkn jenis kerap beli baju or toys anak. Kedekut mommy? Yes I am bcoz I focused more on his necessity. I'm more interested to think about his saving plan n insurance. So far saya dah buat insurance Ilyas kat Prudential n planning utk buka Akaun Ting. Planning ahead for SSPN too. Terfikir juga skrg anak baru seorang, kalo 2-3 mcm mana? Dgn nanti dah start nak byr rumah etc? Boleh survive ke? Seriously mmg byk kena korbankan utk anak but it's our responsible. No more hu-ha thingy i.e watching movies etc but it's ok sbb kami bkn jenis tgk wayang, tv kat rumah pun jarangggggg sgt on :p. Saya ni pula jenis org yg rasa tak secure bila tkde simpanan sbb nanti kalo jadi apa2 sape yg nak back up? Walau apapun terjadi duit tetap kena simpan utk emergency.
Anyways it doesn't mean kami terus dgn plain boring life. Life is temporary, so make used of it. Be rationale, no? Ada masa nak juga pergi holiday, shopping sket but it has limit. Nak juga happy2 mcm org lain :)
Selalu juga kadang2 tertanya2 mcm mana org manage hidup n perbelanjaan dia lagi2 yg ada anak ramai tapi saya rasa semua org (akan) lalui benda yg lebih kurang sama. Yg bezakan cuma cara kita nak handle properly mengikut priority.

So selalu akak buat apa pada masa senggang? (cewah masa senggang tu. bahasa. haha)
melayan ilyas,tido (kalo ilyas tido) n surf internet sbb akak ok kalo tkde tv tp jgn tkde internet,boleh mati kutu dibuatnya :p..hehe..
kalo hubby akak outstation weekend so dia siap2 beli telur,roti,yogurt drink n apa2 aje la keperluan utk akak so akak dah tak pyh keluar rumah...tak pandai keluar berdua dgn ilyas sbb takut gelabah tak boleh handle
wahhh panjang pula explanation! :p
wah pakai pampers mami poko tu....brand mahal tu...hehe...tp mmg normalla kan org beli pampers atau pon susu ni time offers....masa tu belila banyak2 buat stok...nak2 dah dekat nak sambut thn baru cina ni..lagila banyak yg diturunkan harga...
mamy poko utk mlm n jln2,biasa2 pakai pureen dry 5 premium tu :)
dah try yg lain tp bocor,so lebih byk pakai diapers...mcm mamy poko kalo mlm 2 keping aje dah cukup,beli masa promo boleh grab 3 packs terus
mmg kena bijak juga dlm berbelanja ni..hehe..
alamak sy yg bujang ni pon dah semput2 kak.harap2 nanti da ada anak boleh handle perbelanjaan.
menabung sekaranggg *tingggg* bunyi duit syiling masuk tabung kekek
Normal parents mmg akn buat mcm ni.Time promo n selalu survey dlm paper apa yg murah..anyways, adam dulu pki mamipoko..but now pki huggies dry comfort(warna merah).i found it as good as mamypoko and cheaper.Yyg L60 pieces boleh dpt 29.90 kat tesco time promo.kdg dpt jugak yang huggies ultra yg purple tu murah but then i dont find it as good as huggies dry comfort nape ntah. For susu pulak since pregnant blk n trying to wean him we gave isomil sbb dia allergy dgn cow's milk..dalm sebulan dlm 2-3 tin jugakla.sometimes kat giant murah tp selalu survey kedai sensei jugak n speedmart99..sometimes much cheaper tp kena check expiry date cos kdg2 ada yg jual dkt2 nk expire.For savings, we bukak asb for both kids n monthly mmg akan masukkan saving diaorg..nnt jgn lupa bl anak dh msk preschool lg la..preschool nowadays bukan murah huhu...i jenis spend utk anak2 in terms of baju2 n some toys plus books..tp mostly beli time sale mothercare sbb tahan lama n boleh di pass along to anak2 seterusnya..utk diri sendiri:jarang2la..3-6 bulan sekali sbb not working..on one income..mungkin ramai yg kata untung dapat duduk rumah jaga anak2..but byk benda i kena sacrifice utk duduk rumah..we dont go for holidays cuma blk my hometown miri 1-2 times a year yg jugak very costly..mkn luar jrg2 sebulan sekali la mcm tu..wayang?sejak ada anak mmg x pernahla...dulu time working i hv my own money to spend..tp skrg walau ada duit sendiri i simpan..dpt pocket money from husband pun beli apa yg i nak yg 3-6 bulan sekali tu je..the rest simpan..
cik asam jeruk: tkpe slow2 sbb dulu akak pun tak pernah imagine but once u're in mmg automatik jadi pandai :)
Deanna:huggies ok ya?i takut nappy rash tu yg i stick to Mamy Poko n Pureen
actually i pun tkde holiday sgt pun,i mean never n setakat blk rmh parents i pun i dah anggap holiday :p
bagus jgk u share bcoz i wanna know frm perspektif SAHM...i teringin nak jdi mcm u tp i tak mampu if harapkan gaji hubby utk tampung semua.tsk!
huggies ok but not the blue pack one..yg huggies biru tu mmg x serasi pki mmg rash...the red pack yg dry comfort n huggies ultra ok cuma ultra mahal lg dari mamipoko tp xdela bagus yg ultra tu baik beli mamipoko.so far ok..pastu yg dry comfort tu lekat dia mcm mamipoko.
working n sahm both ada pros n cons..dulu masa mula2 kawin n esp dpt anak mmg teringin gila nak jadi sahm..esp bila read blogs sahm kan yg nmpk sgt rileks g shopping2,mkn2..tp yes at that time mmg x mampu lagi..baru kahwin,baru dpt anak etc..after dpt anak beli rumah...after my 1st child 3yrs old baru i jadi sahm bila everything dah settle..but still x mampu la jadi tai tai like some ppl..ada maid..g mkn2 luar suka hati..beli designers..just not my league la..setakat high street tu bolehla..so at the moment tgh fikir jugak how to earn extra income..tgh belajar jahit2 gak nihh :P
And jadi sahm sgt penat..rsnya akan ok bila anak2 dh besar skit kot insyaallah...
maybe i should give it a try,huggies comfort red color
yeah i know n read about SAHM yg ada maid,blh beli designer bags,fine dining,shopping...hmm some ppl are just so lucky,no? :)
i agree it's not easy to take care of kids bcoz i jaga ilyas full time during weekend pun sometimes i rasa mcm nak pengsan..hehe..
