Motherhood Expo @ KLCC Convention Centre

Hubby and I visited the Motherhood Expo held at KLCC Convention Centre last Saturday.
It was very crowded.  The expo hall was filled with expecting mothers, parents pushing their babies in strollers, and also running kids. Honestly, the environment was not very conducive for pregnant ladies, we have to truly pay attention to avoid many hidden obstacles while trying to walk in the hall. Not to mention, the super long queue at the toilets.

Anyway, we finally booked the baby cot for our baby boy.  It was the same cot that we have planned to buy from a baby shop called One Stop Baby Centre, situated in Uptown, Damansara (same row as AmBank and CIMB).  The shop participated in this expo and the same cot was having a good promotion. The package came with a cot, a coconut fibre mattress and a 6-piece-bedding set, all in for RM650 (inclusive of free delivery and fixing).  We did not hesitate long before purchasing the set as the original price in the shop was RM799 and the delivery charges was another addition of RM80. An arrangement has also been made to deliver the cot in the mid of April, nearer to my expected delivery date.


Model: TW-C25B(GR) (Japan Export Model)
Features :
•Three level adjustable base
•Non toxic finish
•Easy to assemble
•C/w small door at bottom for storage purpose
•Swivel castor with brakes

I also managed to grab 3 other products at very good prices, Bio-Oil 125ml (at RM47), Sunsweet Prune Juice (2 bottles for RM15, originally 1 for RM11.50) and Ghee Hiang Sesame Oil (2 big bottles for only RM30, used for cooking Chinese confinement food).





Constipation is a common problem faced by many pregnant ladies. I was lucky to discover that there were 3 types of food that can help me combat this difficulty, since the very beginning of my pregnancy. They are pitted prune, prune juice and dragon fruit.  

Since entering the 3rd trimester, I couldn't afford to walk long due to my swelling ankles and feet. So, we did not stay long before heading home.  There will be another parenthood expo in Mid Valley from 9 to 11 March 2012. We will probably make a visit to buy baby carrier and stroller, that is if my feet allows!
