The Morning After @ Jaya One

Our small family had brunch at this cafe over the weekend. 

We were actually following our lil' tot closely behind as she was contemplating on whether to use the main entrance or the side entrance. hahaha

Anyway, whilst the three of us were standing near the cafe, one of the servers by the name of Alam, stood by the door and looked at us. 

He immediately opened the door for us and gestured us in. 

As we were settling down at our table where there were three chairs, Alam brought an additional chair for me to place my huge backpack. 

He even asked if our tot needed a baby chair but we politely declined as she did not wish to be seated in a baby chair. 

I thanked him for being so attentive. 

As he brought us the menu, he noticed that our tot was sitting quite uncomfortably in the chair, he brought another chair and placed it on top of the existing one to increase the height. 

Wow, just wow. The level of attentiveness is simply awesome and the fact that he was so polite and courteous definitely won us over!







Once we've placed our orders, our tot became slightly restless so I ushered her to the cakes counter. 

The minute I saw this chocolate cheesecake, I immediately ordered it, upon the approval of my lil' tot who just LOVES cheesecake!

Lil' tot and I were both enjoying our cake and because it was just SUPERB, I coaxed hubby to have a taste too before the cake vanishes from the plate! tee hee hee


The breakfast which I ordered probably needed a bit more seasoning and the portion should be bigger (due to its price tag) and it would make the taste perfect. ;)

I had my latte and hubby had his caramel macchiato which he just LOVED! 

You see, hubby is quite particular in terms of food and drinks so he can immediately tell if it is awesome or good or OK or just terrible. 

Their caramel macchiato is a must-try! 


As I was impressed with the service provided by Alam, I conveyed my compliments to Victor, the cafe manager who was also manning the coffee machine at that time (he was the one who prepared the caramel macchiato). :)

Like Alam, Victor was equally polite, courteous and friendly too. 

Both of them definitely left a positive impression on us and it's safe to say that we will definitely come back!

Jika Anak Demam

Baru2 ni anak saya selsema dan batuk. 

Selsema 2 hari diikuti batuk 2 hari. 

Alhamdulillah, tidak perlu kami bawa dia ke klinik dan semuanya sembuh dalam masa yang singkat.

Beri dia minum banyak air oren, air suam, susu badan, makan bubur & sup, tidur pakai bantal supaya dia senang bernafas (dia cukup tak suka pakai bantal) dan rehat yang secukupnya. 

Naluri ibu akan mengatakan bila anak perlu dibawa ke klinik ie keadaan makin teruk atau tiada perubahan dalam masa 2-3 hari. 

Sekiranya si ibu tidak yakin, tidak salah juga membawa anak ke klinik dengan kadar segera untuk mendapatkan nasihat doktor. 

Terbaca tips di FB tentang tidak perlu membawa anak pergi ke klinik dan berubat di rumah sahaja.

Semoga ianya bermanfaat untuk semua, Insya Allah. :)


TIPS JIKA ANAK DEMAM
"Jika anak demam, pastikan anak dimandikan 3 kali sehari supaya panasnya keluar. 

Ini kerana haba panas di dalam badan akan bergerak keluar mencari kawasan sejuk.
Bila selsema, mandikan anak 3 kali sehari supaya lendir akan mudah keluar. 
Namun, ramai ibu2 hari ini ingat jika selsema anak sejuk maka jangan mandikan. 

Apabila ini berlaku, anak mudah berkahak sehingga sesak nafas. 

Ibu cuba praktikkan langkah2 di atas setiap kali anak ada selsema, Insya Allah, maksimum kena pun 3 hari.


Jika anak batuk, mandikan 3 kali supaya panasnya keluar.

Bila tidur malam, sapukan minyak telon atau minyak yuu yee dibelakang badan anak dalam jam antara 1-3 pagi.

Insya ALLAH, kahaknya akan cepat beransur baik.

Jika minyak terlalu panas, campurkan sedikit dengan minyak kelapa atau minyak zaitun sebelum di urut pada badan anak.

Bila kahak dah longgar, tepuk belakang anak everytime die batuk.

Sekiranya anak muntah, itu menandakan lendir2 itu keluar.

Waktu mandi yang sesuai ialah 8am, selepas zohor dan sebelum 7pm.

Jika terpaksa mandikan selepas 7pm, mandikan dengan air suam dan sapukan minyak panas selepas mandi supaya dada tidak mudah sejuk dan diserang selsema.
Elok menjadi kebiasaan selepas mandi untuk sapukan minyak panas pada ubun2 anak, belakang telinga, tapak tanga, dada dan belakang dada serta betis dan tapak kaki. Ini membantu melancarkan peredaran darah.
Even doktor turut berpesan, jika anak demam, pasangkan aircond di rumah jika ada supaya suhu sejuk dan rumah tidak berkuap.
Bagi ibu yang menyusukan anak dengan susu ibu, menjadi satu kelebihan dengan kerap menyusukan anak semasa anak dalam fasa tidak sihat supaya anak menjadi lebih bertenaga dan antibodi yang dibekalkan mampu melawan penyakit dengan cepat."

Downtime

It has been quite some time since our lil' tot had flu.

Unlike the last time where she'd have tons of mucus rolling down her nostrils, this time around she was able to control it somehow. 

I developed flu and cough before her. 

I drank tons of water and tamarind juice concocted at home. 

Alhamdulillah, I recovered within a week without developing any fever. 

So when our toddler contracted it, I guessed that it was from me. 

She developed flu at first. 

From time to time, I'd ask her to go to the bathroom so that she could blow her nose and wash her face since she just loves to wipe off her nose and leave traces of mucus trailing on her cheeks. *sigh* 

We gave her warm baths, made sure she drank tons of OJ and plain water every other hour, she had porridge and soup for her meals and just rest at home.

Alhamdulillah, 2 days later her flu was cleared but she slowly developed a mild cough.

We continued with whatever treatment we administered previously. 

When she sleeps at night, I made sure that she lays her head on the pillow. 

Yes, she has a tendency to kick the pillow elsewhere and even her blanket while she sleeps. 

She can even do this with her eyes closed and continue sleeping. 

I wonder if she ever feels cold at night since we have the a/c on? 

Alhamdulillah, 2 days later, she recovered from her cough and on the 3rd day, her voice no longer had that raspiness. 

It was just flu and cough without any fever and I'm glad that we needn't bring her to the clinic to be administered with meds.

Just want to make sure that her body is able to develop its own antibody and fight off flu, cough and fever on its own. :)
