Doona carseat. Berbaloi ke tak?

bismillahirrahmanirrahim...


Yes, berjaya curi masa sedikit untuk update blog and review Doona stroller & carseat yang aku pakai for baby Razzan.

Dah lama suke Doona ni tapi sebab harganya agak mahal plus pakai sekejap je, maka aku tak pernah-pernah rasa nak order.

But then, when I found out I was pregnant again, aku decide, wth, this is my last baby, baik aku pakai je cos memang dah lama teringin HAHA... plus, rajin ke nak ade carseat n stroller (2 separate items) bile anak dah masuk 4 ni? Penuh kereta. So... order la.

Frankly, Doona ni elok dibeli sejak preggy lagi so that baby lahir je terus guna. Or beli time anak baru je lahir. Senang... keluar hospital terus masuk Doona and into the car we went. Kalau kat overseas, baby takkan direlease selagi takde carseat :)

Anyway, I used the Doona stroller/carseat sejak discharged hospital lagi.

Razzan, umur 3 ke 4 hari tah. Lupe dah mak haha

Didn't buy the isofix base though, sebab mahal sangat. Tapi kalau pakai base lagi bagus cos seatbelt kereta tu cukup-cukup je panjang dia utk secure carseat. Padahal kereta mpv nissan. If local car yang femes dengan seatbelt pendek tu ntah le kan... 

Oh ye, Perodua Aruz (kereta Nini) nasib baik la seatbelt cukup panjang. Tu pun cukup-cukup jugak. Jenuh tarik

Merata dah pakai Doona ni cos mak malas nak babywear hahah

Ayah pun sikit-sikit kalau keluar, mesti angkut Doona terus. So for me, memang berbaloi-baloi ada Doona ni. Tak makan space cos takde nak simpan stroller lagi kat boot kereta. Just this one item yang boleh jadi stroller and carseat =)

By the way, if pakai stroller ni memang orang dok pandang je ^_^"

But like any other carseats from USA (Doona ni made in China but designed in US), Doona ni ada expiry date. 6 years from manufacturing date. Same goes with its isofix base too. Sebab plastic kan... in time, akan mereput ke hape... just the safety precautions la.

Please do not buy inspired Doona carseats yang bersepah ada jual secara online. The safety is not the same as the original ones. Plus, harga yang fake pun dah RM1K camtu, better la beli original ones.

Doona ni carseat category 0+ ya, which means dari baby baru lahir until 13kg or until baby dah tak muat. Tak muat macam mana? 

Suitability (EU):

Infant Weight: 1.8-13Kg

Suitability (US):

Infant Weight: 4-35 lbs

Infant Height: up to 32” (81 cm)

It's perfect for air traveling and definitely works great if you travel a lot. If selalu naik flight ke ape... but aku so far takde la lagi travel by air with baby haha... doakan Mak murah rezeki ya cos gerabak keretapi banyak ni lol

Ni kalau nak letak kat overhead luggage

Or just use it to put your child in it.

So, kesimpulannya bagi aku memang berbaloi-baloi untuk pakai Doona ni if you always on the go and IF YOU PURCHASED IT WHEN YOUR BABY IS IN INFANT STAGE. Kalau baby dah besar nak masuk 5,6 bulan tu... Mmmm maybe tak yah la beli. Takut pakai kejap je...

For me, if baby dah outgrew nanti aku jual preloved jela kot. Or buat rental. Tengok la rajin ke tak nak rent out haha... By the way, ok je nak beli preloved carseats asalkan tahu history carseat tu camne... if dah pernah involve accidents, then janganla jual pulak ok. 

Till then.

Latest pic of Razzan (now almost 5 months) in his Doona carseat/stroller. Mine is in Royal Blue color.

That Doona Essential Bag is now my handbag. 

Senang oi semua benda humban dalam tu je =D

My cheeky boy.

Dia suke duduk dalam Doona ni cos he knows that would mean we are going to 'jalan-jalan'

hehehe...

Iklan: Mama Panda ada ambil pre order Doona if anyone interested. Price memang lebih kurang jela mana-mana seller pun, but ada special payment plans. Boleh dpt barang lepas deposit RM1000 + postage. Balance RM900 bayar bulan-bulan (RM180 x 5 months). Syaratnya kite perlu 'Friends' di Facebook. =D

If nak beli lumpsum, DM je instagram @mamapandastore nanti I quote. Tapi pre order means kena tunggu la ye... usually it takes 1-2 weeks to arrive.

alhamdulillah...

Of baby stuff: Doona carseat

bismillahirrahmanirrahim...



Alhamdulillah now I'm in my 2nd trimester.

Muntah-muntah dah takde, tapi still ada mual-mual. Plus, pelupa ya amat bab makan supplement. I mean, I don't remember at all yang aku dah makan ke belum Pramilet tu. Should I take it again? End up aku tak amik la... risau lak overdose (is there such a thing?)

Anyway, since I am now 84kg ish... Aku kena check up kat KKIA every 2 weeks. High risk cos obese, berat naik banyak in 2 weeks, ada UTI lah, mak bapak ade history diabeters n hypertension bla bla... So... Hm.

Rase macam lama tak preggy, bila preggy balik memang excited but at the same time penatnya nak tunggu abis pregnant. Lol

Let see...

Razin, March 2011
Raul, May 2014 (masa Razin dah 3 tahun 2 bulan)
Raiq, July 2015 (masa Raul umur 1 tahun 2 bulan)
Baby no. 4, April 2019 (masa Raiq umur 3 tahun 8 bulan)

So definitely baby no. 4 ni jarak paling jauh le kann hehehe... Raiq almost 4. Aku lak umur 33 tahun masa melahirkan nanti (birthday in Aug ok)

Though aku tak sure la akan beranak bulan April or March. April kalau 40 weeks. Tapi ni pregnancy ke-4 and aku dah 2x czer. Of cos if beranak kat hospital, kena czer gak le. So for czer usually doctor akan bagi tarikh awal dari due. If due aku 14th April, maybe aku beranak bulan 3 gak le kot.

Still have no idea what is the gender of the baby. But of course everyone in my family are hoping for a girl. Amin amin moga dimakbulkan.

As for me, I think this is going to be my last baby. 3x czer weh. Cuak sangat bila mengingatkan perut nak kena belah ni huuuu... Plus dah berumur. This pregnancy beza sangat dengan masa aku umur under 30.

So I'm going all out to try baby stuff yang aku tak pernah try with my other babies before.

For example, kali ni aku nak beli Doona carseat/stroller tu. Dulu-dulu tak jual cos suppliernya kat Singapore and aku malas nak order... Plus, harga dia kan mahal gilaaa. Bagi aku lah. For carseat dari infant yang harga almost 2k tu mahal bagiku.

Tapi sebab memikirkan anak dah nak masuk 4 org, larat ke aku nak biar ade carseat dalam kereta and additional stroller pulak dalam boot? Better aku guna carseat yang terus leh jadi stroller pastu. Kan jimat ruang?

Aku terpengaruh dengan Doona review dari Emily Harris. I even plan to buy the Essential Bag and use it as my handbag/diaper bag jer nanti. It comes with a changing mat okeh. So useful. Senang... leh sangkut kat stroller HAHA...

Haven't decided on the color yet. Most probably Grey or Beige cos warna hitam dah takde, discontinued. Grey senang, gender neutral and boleh let go senang sikit nanti hahaha.

I felt bad though that I've sold my 4moms Breeze playard. Huwaaaa nak beli baru mahal gilaaa... Hmmm takde baby cot lah nanti. Malas la nak beli. Plus, budak-budak dah besar, takde menempel atas katil dah. Bole la cosleep dengan aman, insya Allah.

Having this baby buatkan aku kembali jadi diri aku yang dulu-dulu. Yang gile baby gadgets... which is why aku jadi penjual barang baby haha. Elok je aturan Allah tu kan...

Early this year aku macam nak give up and gulung tikar je cos semangat dah kurang, sales pun tak macam dulu (economy is bad) bla bla... But now since preggy lagi ni aku semangat sikit nak study and order barang2 baby.

Sesiapa nak join kutu tu meh la join group Mama Panda Store kat FB. I'm a small bizz owner. Berniaga untuk kelangsungan hidup and bayar education for my kids je mostly. Your support is truly appreciated!

alhamdulillah...
