cloth pads best ke?

skang ni tgh dok kemas2 beg hospital mummy lak. beg hospital jr. dah slamat ade lam bonet kete tecik mummy. So tgh2 dok prepare barang2 ni ade come across yang mummy kene prepare pad. yela darah nifas kan banyak masa tu. Pastu ade gak dgr2 org cakap kalo normal delivery, tendency yang doc akan potong skit tu ada. so bila pikir2 balik, kalo pakai pad yang biasa pakai tu mesti cm agak ngilu kan, especially bila tergesel ngn bucu2 dia yg plastik ngn dia punya wing tu. huhuh. I lak mmg jenis org yang x tahan sakit :p so banyak la pikir masalah tu. ahahha.

So sambil2 tu google la kot2 ade cloth pad. banyak jugak jumpa sales blog yang jual cloth pad ni. ni ade review pasal cloth pad yang i amik from this blog

About cloth pads ( for women that is!)

Ok ladies....don't be shy , just admit it , you think that is GROSS! Why in this world , in year of 2007, there are still people using CLOTH menstrual pads? Yuck, disgusting, gross, you name it! Well but as I am always the " strange" one...you can call me what ever you want...or think cloth pads are gross, yucky...etc, but I am ONE PROUD LADY to share this info with you! Yes I AM!
Here is why:
1. Of course it is healthier, as you know I am the cloth diapers addict ( need to say more?) and the material in commercial pads are the same, they use gel, dioxin, chemical etc. I think I deserve something HEALTHIER! Don't you think you deserve something healthier?
2.Thinking of how women spend $$ to take care of their appearance and well being ,going to saloon after saloon, buying creams after creams, beauty therapies ,spas and much more, I found using cloth menstrual pads also as one of the health routine we should be aware and do!
3.I found that the blood is much more lesser when I use cloth pad.AMAZING...and not just me! many other cloth pads user have confirmed this. Disposable pads have chemicals in them which 'draw out' the blood from your body. I noticed this difference immediately when I made the switch to cloth! I had very little blood on my cloth pads compared to disposables
4.Less cramping after I changed to cloth!
5. Save money....

Ok if you read until this far ,that means you are still interested to know more!

Innershine & Folic acid

penah try makan innershine x? i br seminggu makan this product and what i can conclude is... ITs YUMMILICIOUS!... i took both, innershine prune and also innershine berry.
ini pon masuk dalam senarai yang diwajibkan oleh MyZakwan. Antara sebab2 i amik innershine ini adalah:
- nak kawen (ahaha so nak kena nampak chantek!) silala muntah..
- nak melengkapkan segala nutrien yang x cukup dalam badan.
- malas nak makan banyak2 vitamin. so amik je sebotol malam n sebotol pagi. n x yah amik dah vit A, C & E
-nak serlahkan kecantikan dari dalaman ahahaha. siyes. muntahlah untuk kenyataan di atas. Eh! seblah kot?

so perubahan yang nampak dalam masa seminggu ni so far positive and i plan to continue using it until wedding day. Selain innershine ni, i pon dh start makan folic acid. Yes! Folic acid... ehehe usually, pregnant mommies yang start amik this pills. but nowaday, they advice ladies yang nak kawin start amik this pills to prepare your body especially your uterus/womb correct me if im wrong.
these are some info yg i dapat from wikipedia:

"Folic acid is an important nutrient for women who may become pregnant. Adequate folate intake during the periconceptional period, the time just before and just after a woman becomes pregnant, helps protect against a number of congenital malformations including neural tube defects.[9] Neural tube defects result in malformations of the spine (spina bifida), skull, and brain (anencephaly). The risk of neural tube defects is significantly reduced when supplemental folic acid is consumed in addition to a healthy diet prior to and during the first month following conception.[10][11] Women who could become pregnant are advised to eat foods fortified with folic acid or take supplements in addition to eating folate-rich foods to reduce the risk of some serious birth defects. The most notable birth defects that occur from folate deficiency are neural tube defects. Taking 400 micrograms of synthetic folic acid daily from fortified foods and/or supplements has been suggested. The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for folate equivalents for pregnant women is 600-800 micrograms, twice the normal RDA of 400 micrograms for women who are not pregnant.[12]
Recent research has shown that it is also very important for men who are planning on fathering children, reducing chromosomal defects in their sperm.[13]" source: wikipedia
