Car Seat Review

This is Kyle's car seat that we bought when he's around 4months old @ Jusco Queensbay Mall, RM299 with 20% discount so it's around RM240 only. This is LB303 model. Here are some of the brief specs:

Net Weight : 5.5kg

Features :

Suitable from 6 months to 4 years

Removable, washable padded seat cushion

Easy accessible belt path

5-point, 1-pull safety harness

3 reclining seat positions

Chest and buckle pad; Padded support seat

Retail Price : RM299.00

It's been around 5 years since then and it's still in good condition. We're heavy user as we travel a lot. He used it each time he's in the car and he's a real good boy, always enjoying his car seat. He used this car seat until he's around 4 years old before switching to normal seat in the back of the car ^^. Now this car seat will be pass down to Keith, his little brother.

We have checked on Sweet Cherry latest collection of car seat and we still find this model on shelf with a retail price of RM299, and will have discount once in awhile when Jusco is having promotion. We're very glad that we have bought this.

Hubby and I are now scouting for 1 new car seat that fits newborn as I'll be driving in and out fetching Kyle to and fro from his kindy everyday, so i'll definitely need a suitable infant car seat for Keith.

We do not want to spend on infant car seat as they will grown out of it very fast and it will be a waste of money. We will be looking forward for specs that can fit 0mths - at least 3 years old. This is what I've search and had in mind. Will start going around looking at all this model soon.

As long as the price range from RM200-RM300 we will take in consideration as this is our budget for car seat. Though branded car seat may have more safety features in it but after testing with Kyle's Sweet Cherry car seat, it is easy to use and reliable. After so many years it's is still in very good condition, mind that I'm not someone that good in taking care of things ^^.

Prenatal Check Up Updates

Updates of my prenatal check up :-

11 weeks 4 days check up:

Little Keith has grown from tadpole like fetus. He's now looking like a little baby through the U/S. Nothing much on this check up, just ultrasound to make sure he's growing well and Dr. Soon prescribe me my prenatal vitamins which consist of Pramilet (a multivitamin) and Calcium +.

15 weeks 4 days check up:

No morning sickness anymore 'hip hip hurray'. We did an ultrasound to check on Little Keith and we get to count his fingers and toes ^^. This is part of his detailed scan that need to be done from 18 to 24 weeks. We get to see his 3d ultrasound and he's looking like wrinkled alien baby. We manage to take a good picture of his private area, though Dr. Soon doesn't want to confirm anything to us yet but hubby and I know he will be a little boy.

18 weeks 4 days check up:

Detailed / Anatomy scan for this trip. Dr. Soon check from his head to toe, making sure Little Keith is growing to his gestational age. Everything is fine, just that the waist is a little small but still in the normal range. Heart chamber will be check on next check up as 18 weeks is still too small to see the heart clearly.

27 weeks 4 days check up:

I've skip a check up due to hubby busy work schedule, so it's been 9 weeks since my last check up. Very anxious to see my Little Keith who is already busy kicking me for the pass 9 weeks. I was hoping he will be in head down position and thank god he is. Which means my chances of natural labour is higher. Dr. Soon said they can still change their position but ask me not to worry too much. Hubby didn't follow me in the consultation room this trip because he needs to take care Wyson (his friend's son) and I'm really disappointed.
