Blabs for the month

Assalamualaikum. =)

No, i havent given birth yet. still pregnant. haha. 2 bulan tak post ooo i supposed some of u might think i have popped. i’m still a fat, bloated whale unfortunately. HA HA.

tomorrow mark my 34 weeks of pregnancy. how crazy is that? cant believe i’ve been thru this far (but i’m tellin ya it aint easy AT ALL). i’m still in gerik n will be back to my hometown next week and counting days to the arrival of this cute lil princess.

YES, IT’S A GIRL!

we did our detail scan last month and tho we did not see her private part on 3d scan, doc said its a girl..according to the bones on the private part of the baby. (boys are determined by their testicles while the girls are still a mystery, tho the bone structure on the vagina shows its a girl). tho i’m still not 100% convinced, i am still very happy, boy or girl. its the ultimate gift parents can ask for.

now i can really shop what i want without ever wondering the gender. purple will be the ultimate colour. MUAHAHAHAH.

——————————————–

haaiihhh..so much to say. i dont know if i have the ‘rajin’ness to type all of em. these 2 months have been crazy. we stayed in kl for 2 weeks last month coz joe had some courses there (and that gave me a whola lotta time to jalan2 cari makan n shop baby stuff thank god). then went back to gerik, packed our entire stuff and moved to another house (yeap, we moved to a more child-friendly house) n that took a week with the help of my mom, of course. kalau mak buyong buat boleh terberanak ok. =P

ok, not terberanak la…but i did had a bleeding, and it happened when we were in ipoh for the weekend after the moving thingy, and it happened during midnight. i told joe n we went to kpj ipoh emergency. the nurses brought me straight to the emergency ward and check baby’s heartbeats n stuff. to check if i have any contractions too.  ctg scan thats what they called.

after half and hour of monitoring, they said that baby’s heartbeat is normal n i dont have any contractions so its nothing to worry. i can either go home, or stay in the ward if i want. coz the day after is chinese new year and hospital clinics will be closed for 3 days, doctors will not be available for the duration UNLESS there’s real emergency. so of course i said i wanna go home. so i did. n fortunately no bleeding the day after and until now.

went back to gerik the day after, and continue unpacking stuff with mom n joe. well, actually more to them only coz i had to rest due to the incident. since it was CNY, in laws came too n we had full house for few days. was very nice to have so many ppl around.

AND THEN…..another bad thing happened.

i was not feeling so well on the 2nd day of CNY. after had my daily check up at a local govn clinic. i vomitted like crazy,had  high fever n diarrhea. was so weak that day i couldnt get up from bed at all. the only walk i did for the day was my countless trips to the toilet. with the help of my mom n joe. felt like one of the worst days of my life. *sigh

fortunately the day after, i felt better. no diarrhea vomit whatsoever. went to my daily check up. check blood pressure, did the usual urine test, timbang berat n stuff. but when the urine test result came out, it shows that i have what they called ‘ kencing kotor’. n it was bad. n then when they checked that i had lost 2.2kg in a day, they asked if my water break. i said no, but had a really bad diarrhea. they referred me to gerik hospital right away coz i was really dehydrated. went there, thought its just gonna be a pine of water drip n then boleh balik, turned out to be wrong. i have to be admitted and i was like WHAT? I CANT BE HERE. MY FAMILY’S AT MY HOUSE. waaa i felt like crying ok. joe had to calm me down but i was so pissed n sad i couldnt calm down. but then after accepting the reality, changed to my hospital uniform n just lie on the bed, moody. i was ‘tagged’. (the hospital name tag bracelet urgh). joe had to go home and bring  stuff like toothbrush, towels etc and bring it back during visiting hours. (i hate that). mom came too and bring food from home. yes, nothing can compared to mom’s home cooking. hospital food sucks. (still emo). then after visiting hours ended, i just spent the rest of night calming myself n think positive that everything’s gonna be okay the next day n i can go home to my husband n darling families.

I WAS WRONG.

test results came out and  still had that kencing kotor. doctor wont let me go home n i had to stay for another night. at that moment i was crushed. and….i cried. sedih gila. call me manja or anything i dont care. i wanna go home so bad. i told joe if tomorrow they still dont want to let me go home, imma flee. bagi ke tak bagi ke i will go home no matter what. memang determined habis. minum air banyak2 to hydratekan balik badan n clean kan urine was my ultimate goal the 2nd day. dengan tangan kena drip air, i still drink like crazy to make sure that my 2nd urine test result for the day will be a good one.

another night passed, n result came out the next day. and… it turned out okay alhamdulillah! doctor finally let me go home. i quickly called joe n tell him the good news. hehe. no words can express the feeling i had after 3 days in hospital. taubat takmo masuk hospital wehh. especially govn hospital. >.<

almost 3 weeks in our new home now and i’m enjoying every single minute of it. love the view and the ambience. cuma panas sikit compared to former house. buffy’s allowed to have his outdoor activity daily now. n he’s enjoying it too. and since we moved, he’s become a taiko. chasing cats here n there which…never happened before. not just small cats tau. big cats macam dia pun kena kejar. dont know whether its a good thing or not. as long as he’s happy i’m fine with it. he seems so macho now. haha. buffy’s the new samseng quarters.

alrite, i think i’ve written too much. have covered almost a month of story. hehehe. till next time, before the birth (I HOPE). bye!

2012

officially becomes a mother in 90 days. insyaAllah.

An End of A Great Year and Arrival of A Hopeful Year

yes yes, its the end of year 2011. been through so many great things this year. quit my crazy job, got married, moved to a new place, got pregnant, new handphone and a new laptop. he he he. 

2012 for me, is nothing else than the arrival of our child. joe n i are so excited we just couldnt wait any longer. 3 months from now feels like 3 years! we basically have bought essential stuff for kiddo. except for big things like baby cot n stroller. nxt week gonna mark my 7 months of pregnancy. we’re going to register to kpj selangor hospital in 2 weeks time. and have detail scan there too insyaAllah. nope we didnt go for ultrasound when we went back to kl recently coz joe doesnt want to. he said better wait for detail scan terus. 

anyway, whats your new year resolution for 2012? i, as usual, azam tu ada but tak pernah fulfil. (the weight loss azam). however, since i’m giving birth in 90 days time, i guess this time i do have to lose weight during pantang. like wajib ok. and joe needs to berpantang too. he gained more kgs than me in this duration of 7 months. macam dia pulak yang mengandung! hehehe. 

since i dont have anything else to say. i wanna wish HAPPY NEW YEAR to everyone!! Bye!

Happy together =)

Emo Emo Mommy

the itchiness of the expanding tummy and the ugliness of stretchmarks are getting on my nerves! pregnancy is really a tough time not because u have to carry it anywhere n everywhere for 9 months, but the things u have to endure for the period of 9 months. i know i know everyone knows that. but really, knowing and having to endure it are two different things. dont tell me u know how i feel (unless u’ve been thru pregnancy before). its different. one time i was complaining abt my back pain to my bro in law and he said “memangla macam tu dik *with his hey-i-know-how-u-feel- face*”. I FEEL LIKE SMACKING HIM THAT VERY MOMENT. seriously, normal back pain n pregnancy back pain is DIFFERENT. dont say it like u’ve been thru it. its stressful enough to have to endure it, n having to hear someone said it like its nothing is just making me so very angry. i dont care if i’m over reacting abt something like that. u can never tell. pregnant woman can easily get mad or sad over something so small. TRUST ME. i’ve been thru that. n i hate to say that my family have seen me in that position. crying over something so ridiculously small. but they didnt say anything. they know its the hormones. so GUYS OUT THERE, PLEASE, BE MORE UNDERSTANDING TOWARDS UR WIFE ESPECIALLY WHEN SHE IS PREGNANT. dont argue so much with her if she asks for something ridiculous or need u to help her over something small. WE ARE CARRYING UR BABY, RIGHT? so please be more considerate. i’m lucky to have my Joe cause he didnt question or argue when i ask him to help do something, or when i didnt fold up a mountain of washed clothes, or iron his work clothes or even clean the hse. he never argue any of that. sometimes i do feel guilty for not being a good wife, but then again my body is so tired even when i’m not doing anything at all. i cant stand for too long cause i’ll feel dizzy so when i cook, i need to sit down occasionally. i cant bend down so much cause my back hurts, i cant even get up fast from sofa cause my big belly is limiting my movement. and yes it goes on n on n on n it never stops. something new will happen every single day. but aside all these ‘complaints’, its worth it when i can feel my baby’s kicking. this kiddo kicks a lot. hehe. lately when i have trouble sleeping, kiddo will kick. maybe to let me know that i’m not alone. it feels like mommy-baby moment sometimes. like we’re communicating.

i cant wait to see my kiddo so so much. mommy will go for another scan to see u in a few weeks ok sayang.

p/s: our last visit to gynae few weeks ago for gender scanning didnt pay off. we still dont know whether kiddo is a boy or girl. nevertheless, we have this picture! kiddo is sooo big already.

The crazees!

Facu n daniel’s bday party.

4 months plus to go!

reaching november soon, its amazing to know that i’m reaching my 5months pregnant in 2 weeks! that means 4 months to go before my lil baby comes out and i’m officially a mother.

i havent felt any kicking yet, but i’m pretty sure i’ll feel it in 1-2 weeks. quite curious to know how it feels tho. we’re planning to go to kl next week and stayed for 2 weeks (since joe had a course in ilsas) and celebrate our raya haji there. since i’m turning 5 months in kl, i guess its a good time to check my baby’s gender too. this is so exciting! once we know then i can start shop our baby’s clothes. gile tak sabar. i saw tons of cute baby clothes rasa mcm nak beli semua but mom said dont buy to much clothes coz baby grows fast and nanti kang outgrown the clothes jadi rugi la pulak. *sigh*. note to self: must choose cute baby clothes wisely. 

we already have names for the baby if its a boy or a girl. tunggu masa nak bagi nama n which nama je la. tho its only 4 months plus, my tummy is quite big now. hopefully its not because i gained too much weight (which i did, sampai doctor bising ), but hopefully the tummy is big coz of ma baby. ma big baby! now my tummy looked less buncit and more preggy. hehehhe. but it feels itchy now coz tummy is expanding and skin is stretching. my heels are quite painful when i walk barefoot,  so i have to use slippers in the house now. clothes are pretty tight nowadays, i cant fit in in my baju kurung anymore. i have a few maternity clothes that i have been using over n over again for outing. nak beli banyak2 pun mcm rugi coz nak pakai for 9 months only. so recycle je la. besides, i dont go out too often, since there’s nothing much in gerik. so those maternity clothes pakai time balik ipoh or kl only. 

i’m counting my days to go back to kl. i need some exercise in shopping malls…and good food too!

Stories

hello blog.

there’s so much things to say abt what happened for the past month i wasn’t writing anything here. but lets cut it short. 1ST TRIMESTER SYMPTOMS. yeah, i’m those unlucky ones who had to deal with morning sickness, nausea, headaches (MIGRAINES!), bla bla bla. i was physically and mentally exhausted. plus it was a fasting month, so i wasnt able to do much at all. thank god i’m not working at this point. i had to ganti puasa for 3 days coz those 3 days was my worst days in fasting month.

i can barely walk for 10minutes now. if we shopping or buy groceries, i had to stop and sit down somewhere in between the walk coz really, i was tooo tired and too dizzy to walk for too long anymore. shopping is like running a marathon for me. its not fun anymore. its torture. and yes, this is ONLY the first 3 MONTHS. cant imagine how it would be like for the next 6 months. 

BUT the good thing now is that since 1st trimester is going to over in a week, headaches are a lot less, and sometimes there’s no headache at all. at least i dont have to deal with headache every single day, which to me..was the worst among all other symptoms. 

one very sure thing i dont like to have around me at all during this pregnancy is..PERFUME. i cant stand the smell of perfume n i dont know why. i dont wear perfumes anymore n joe rarely does too. i told him if he wants to wear it, go puff outside our hse n definitely outside our bedroom coz u know how the fragrance smell will retain for a few minutes or hours if u puff it in a room. there’s one time he forgot n puffed in our room n i almost immediately throw up. thats how bad it is. as for other ppl, u cant tell them not to wear perfume, that would be wrong. so if i smell perfume or something i dont like, i’ll just take out my bestest friend, minyak cap kapak. haha. for some reason it is the most soothing smell now. lumur2 sikit dekat hidung and i’m off to breathe normally again. :p

off topic, i have been sick for a few days now. mainly coz of my tonsil. i have flu, a slight fever n of course, sorethroat. for some strange reason buffy is sick too. so both of us are sick and joe’s not around. he’s in gerik for work and i’m still here to spend raya for another week before going back there. i have heard from a lot of ppl that its not good to take medication during pregnancy coz u dont know how it will affect ur baby, or in some case, can cause miscarriage. a cousin told me her friend took ponstant when she was pregnant, which was prescribed by a doctor, to later found out she had miscarriage. 

so when i first had my tonsillitis few days ago, i was so scared to take any pills. but for those tonsillitis ppl, u know that when u have a very very very painful sorethroat, plus a flu n and a fever, not taking any medication is a total torture. and having a backpain at the same time is just a crazy thing. i wasnt able to sleep. i sometimes sweat, and sometimes feel so cold, its just a terrible terrible feeling. mom was worried so she took me to our gynae yesterday.

strange thing, yesterday my sorethroat was feeling very mild almost ok n my fever cooled down. only flu was still bad. gynae said its okay to take medication, but there are some medications that are not suitable for pregnant women, for example ponstant. (so that explains the miscarriage story i told just now). she gave me 2 types of pill for the flu that is very safe for pregnant mommy which is piriton and zyntec. and a cream for my eczema problem. 

i also had my 1st ultrasound yesterday and to see my very own baby in my body for the very 1st time was the greatest feeling ever masyaAllah. he/she is so tiny yet moves very actively. so cute. the heartbeat was so fast too. he’s only 3.57cm in length yet u can see the head, hands n legs already. i’m assuming that as he/she grows bigger, he’ll move more. very active kiddo i got here. hehe. too bad joe wasnt there to witness our baby. but i did show him the ultrasound picture when we skyped yesterday. he looked so happy when i was telling him bout our baby. kesian ayah. next ultrasound we go together okay honey?

until my next post, enjoy our 1st baby photo. 

p/s: its not to late to wish everyone Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri and Maaf Zahir Batin.

I’m married and i’m pregnant!

sorry for not updating my blog for 3 freakin months. my bad. tho i’m a housewife with nothing else better to do, i shouldnt have any legitimate reason for not writing anything on the blog, and even my daisypath wedding countdown is sooo outdated. everything is outdated. andddd..what made me do it now? coz yesterday my husband suddenly said “u dah lama x update blog u eh?”. tiba2 rasa macam bersalah pulak. bersalah for what? i dont know. n also terharu..sbb x sangka he reads my blog. hehe

oh. and yes, bout the title of this entry. IT’S TRUE! i’m 6 weeks pregnant alhamdulillah!! i’m due 30th March 2012 insyaAllah. please pray for me and my mini me. cant believe that a living creature is growing inside my belly now. mom n dad were ecstatic. its their first grandchild. sure kena spoil habis nanti hehe. and the father to be is already talking to my belly.. so cute. 

tho its still early, we hv already starting to do some surveying on strollers and other baby’s stuff. refinancing our budget (more to.. HIS budget actually he he). at least by the time the day comes we know exactly what n where to buy those stuff..right? planning is important yo. i WAS a production planner, remember? now i plan for my own production. =P

last week was my first check up, n i have a progress book now. tomorrow’s my first doctor’s appointment and i’m looking frwd for that. i bet ppl are wondering whether i have morning sickness and stuff. for now, i do have  mild headaches that keep bugging me and sometimes a lil bit of loya when i’m in the car. others, not so much. now that fasting month has started, i hope its gonna be a smooth ride. i managed to endure these 2 days with ease alhamdulillah. hopefully will stay that way for the rest of the month.

alrite chap, my masterchef australia 2 has started. got to go. bye!

lil countdown

exactly 1 month from  now. yeeeeeehaaaa!!!!
