Muslim Dwi Calendar
Got my "Muslim Dwi Kalendar" from http://zaahara.com . A calendar compact with hadith quotes and short prayers. Can't wait to put it on my office desk!
The Need of Calcium Especially for Women
I've been having this discomfort on my wrist. It is more towards the bone area. I told my colleague about it and found out that another colleague who breastfeeds is also facing the same problem. She was given some pain relief balm and gues what? Calcium tablets! Erk! Did I overlook something about calcium for breastfeeding mothers? I recalled having to eat calcium during pregnancy but I did not do the research for breastfeeding. So, I went on and google for calcium for breastfeeding mothers. Guess what I found on Babycenter?
The National Academy of Sciences recommends that women who are pregnant or breastfeeding consume 1,000 mg (milligrams) of calcium each day.
Erk!
And did you know that Asian have higher chance to get osteoporosis?
Gasp!

I went through Shaklee's supplement list and found OsteMatrix. So, i kept on reading. Sure, just like everyone else, I was wondering what makes it so special to be included as one of the supplements offered in the breastfeeding package.
This is what i learned (taken from the official website):
Just calcium is not enough for your bone. Shaklee has designed exclusive OsteMatrix™ to
include vitamin D, magnesium, zinc, copper, manganese and boron to
build and maintain strong bones. Why is this matrix a comprehensive one?
- Combination of three of the best sources of calcium: Calcium carbonate (highly concentrated), Calcium citrate (highly absorbable) and Calcium phosphate (providing 2 important minerals for calcium absorption)
- Vitamin D is needed to absorb calcium.
- Other nutrients in the matrix acts as binder for calcium to stick together to build strong bones
- 1,000 mg (100% DV) of elemental calcium from nature’s most concentrated and easily absorbed sources
- 400 mg (100% DV) of magnesium to help incorporate calcium into bones and strengthen them
- 400 IU (100% DV) of vitamin D to stimulate calcium absorption
- Clinically proven absorption: consumption of two caplets results in increase in blood calcium measured over 12 hour period.
- Calcium citrate prevents constipation caused by other form of calcium
- Easy to swallow caplets
- Help retain normal blood pressure
- Assist in muscle contraction and nerve transmission
- Help reduce PMS symptoms such as bloating, cramps, water retention, irritability, and moodiness
- Sleep booster
Sounds good. Anyway, if you would like to get your hands on it, please do not hesitate to contact me ok!

Zara's very first Mobile Phone
The other day, hubster and I went to Hamleys at One Utama to look for our niece, Khyra's birthday present. We stumbled across Leap Frog's mobile phone toy. I recalled reading in Baby Center that mobile phone exercise is good to encourage babies to communicate. The phone encourages interaction by having your friend Monkey to say answer your call (when you press the button) and sometimes call you back). What attracted me most was the song that the phone sings:
" Hi! Sing with me! '123 Thanks for calling me; 321 say Good bye when you're done!' Goodbye!"
By the way, I love love love Leap Frog's toys and think that they are totally awesome! Without thinking that much, we bought the phone for her. She's such a lucky princess. I got my first phone when i was 15 years old! LoL! Anyway, both hubster and I are big fans of toys. Not really sure who is more excited; us or Zara.
Anyway, today, since hubster was off to get his knees checked by Dr Zul of Gleneagles (super awesome and modest doctor), i decided to call him to ask how it went and check on my daughter. I went to my address book and typed 'Z..A..' Urmmm.. Why is there no result? It took me awhile to realize *take a deep breath and shamefully admit* that I was trying to call my 4 months old daughter!!! Haha!!!
Gosh! What was i thinking? Zara was going to answer, "Hi mummy!"?!!! Haha!! Things that happen when you are a mom. :p
