I rarely check on comments, especially if it's being left recently on my previous, previous posts. So sorry if I didn't reply earlier.
Someone asked whether I did get Puj Flyte for my baby. Yes, I did. I ordered it through Lazada. The best part was...I ordered for Puj Flyte, because it's cheaper, about RM186, but I received the Puj Tub instead.
I loved it. So much. Used it every day, at least 4 times per day, until my baby became too big for the sink. 4 times per day because my niece, who is a week younger than my daughter, used it as well.
Money well spent because we really used it. My brother offered to replace it but I told them that it isn't meant to be long lasting. Guna sampai lunyai je.
Everybody loved it, especially Mother, because she didn't have to bend her back. Since we were using the sink at the dining area, and the sink is next to the window garden, my maid always joked that my baby had spa instead, sambil mandi, sambil tengok pokok-pokok...
My aunt saw how convenient it was. By the time her granddaughter was born, she borrowed it from me too.
Now, that Puj dah buruk...Expected lah for something that is made from foam. Good quality foam though. Puas hati sebab it really serves its purpose. I say, buy it. For new mothers, ditch the bathtub altogether. Tak kuasa lah nak squat down...Space consuming pulak tu.

While I'm at it, I also want to talk about other great baby items I got for my baby, more prepared compared to my first experience.
I also bought Zen Swaddle by Nested Bean. Also recommended. I think my baby slept better with it.
I was initially drawn to the product because it promised better sleeping hours for the mother. Haha. My sleep is precious, okay.
I think it did a great job. Just that I think the cloth is a little too thick for Malaysian weather, so we needed to switch on the aircond everytime she slept with it.
The weight on the baby chest to mimick a mother's touch is pure genius. I remember when my baby was a few days old, 7-10 days maybe, she slept for 5-6 hours straight. One time, I woke up in frantic because I slept so well, I fear my baby was not breathing!
I bought mine from ebay.

For stroller, it was Babyzen Yoyo vs GB Pockit vs Recaro Easylife.
Babyzen Yoyo is overpriced and has too many imitations.
GB Pockit, although small, compact and light, requires 2 hands to handle. Not suitable for me who is on-the-go and we often use the aeroplane to travel.
What I like about Recaro Easylife
- can be opened and folded single handedly
- freestanding fold
- small, light and compact enough
- 8 wheel suspension
I modified mine so it can be wheeled or hung on the shoulder. Ala...Pakai tali strap je...
So, if we have big luggage and kids don't want to sit in their stroller, I can just wheel it. Although, this rarely happens because I usually put my bag and other things on the stroller instead.
It's for 6 months old until 15kg only. But my firstborn could still sleep in it comfortably.
So, for me, the only downside is...it's not for newborn. To compensate, for the first 6 months, I would use Babywrap by Mak Yang. It's locally made, a copy of an international brand. I bought mine at RM99, now it's 50% more expensive.
Okay lah. Tiga produk setakat ni. Nanti kalau I rajin, sambung lagi...Hehe.
