PARKSON BEATS IBEX

Hubby & I suppose to be able to shop more from IBEX than normal departmental stores, since IBEX is the International Baby Expo, man!  In the end...  We bought more from Jusco and Parkson.

Successfully bought the Little Bean sterilizer and food warmer set at RM150.00.  This is the only item bought according to the plan.  Hahaha...

Besides that, we bought 4-4oz & 2-8oz Classic Avent feeding bottles instead of the planned.  Hmm...  Guess the exhibitor played an important role in convincing us.  Hahaha...

We couldn't get the drying rack, sob...  sold out!!!

Everything seemed out of the plan & shopping list, we of course bought something extra.  Hahaha...  We bought 2 jumpsuits and 2 pairs of top & long pants for Ah Bee at only RM12-RM15 per pc & pair.  As a motivation for myself to breastfeed Ah Bee, I have bought some gears - breast mile storage bags & bottles.  From the beginning, we don't intend to wrap Ah Bee with disposable diapers for 24 hours, so we bought 2 sets of cloth diapers with free 2 insets.

A lucky tips from a friend who we met in the expo, a full breastfeeding mummy, that I should get myself an electrical breast pump instead of a manual one, in consideration of the pumping time and the tight schedule awaiting for my comeback after confinement.  Hmm...  I didn't immediately change my mind for an electrical breast pump, in view of the price difference.  After discussing with hubby, we think my friend had a point there, so we decided to give up the planned rocker chair to opt for an electrical breast pump.  Avent was selling at RM688 for a single pump and we think that it was way too expensive for us at the moment.  We walked away...

We left the expo and headed to Suria KLCC.  Let's see what we could get from Parkson or Isetan, maybe better bargains, who knows...  Yes, it was a much better bargain in Parkson.  We finally got the last promo pack of Madela's Mini Electric Double Pump, with free 2 storage bottles and a tube of nipple cream at RM599.  Normal price for the pump already costs RM729.  We were lucky!!!  Yay!!!  Worth to give up the rocker chair  :pp

That really gave me a great motivation to breastfeed, this is so fated...  :-)
