End of 2008

3 years ago, the same day today we got engaged... Gosh, its been dat long eh? hehe... more pix here @ prettypeektures.. I was so happy to see frens and family who made it.


Happy Birthday to Bibi! Im gonna miss her :((

My pressie... Thomas Sabo

Here's my pram.. sgt comel kan? hehe.. Me love it!

Thank you, Amin for the snappy snappy
Thank you, Jechie, for the pressie pressie




heheh, siap gi germany ngan paris pram nih!

Pram

Anyways, Amin will help me with the pictures of the pressie but, only mine. We thot it is best that we keep all the baju and other pressie for the baby from the public (acehh) for now... hehe.. any present from anyone.. hehe..

padahal mmg i cant wait to show off…. hahah... :P

So let me show ya of the pram/stroller that we WANT! heheh... in the early stage of my pregnancy, ive been ushaing for prams... and I fell in love with one...! heheh... I told amin bout it, coz I know, he would get excited cam i gak.. and of coz, I was right.. hehe...

Just a few weeks after we found out of the big news, we went to The curve... the shop kat atas tu.. "The first few years" nama dia... and I went to see all of the strollers that I dah wat research. As in Bugaboo and my all time fave, Peg Perego...

Bugaboo pun canggih gak... but im no fan.. coz, cam tak comfy jer for baby... tho, the logo is so cunted...heheh

and there is, Peg Perego Skate... Goshh!! mmg best... its like the combination of all good strollers there are in the market... termasukla Stokke yg sgt mahal and i dun think berbaloi... !! Tapi, Skate ni mahal gak.. but Insyallah, akan dapat jua!

But I know, there is this one shop that sell cheaper baby stuff... like strollers and all... I used to go with Atty masa kitaorg giler with strollers dulu2.. hehe.. so, i might go check it out again. Mmg lagi murah than the one in The Curve tu... siap ada jual sekali with the baby car seat! There’s only one type of baby car seat yg can fit into Skate.

I hope, in 5 months time, the harga will turun and turun dan turun lagi… plus it’s a stroller, I will need to use it biler we have appointments with his paed and wat not nanti rite? Also, when we go out, shopping, dinner or just anywhere… tak nak biasakan dgn berdukung 24/7… pls.. and its very important to us, that the baby dah ada baby seat since his first day in the world… yeap… you know, in some countries, the hospital tak allow parents to bawa balik baby if no baby car seat? That’s how important it is!

Tell me what u think ok…? Amin likes the one in bubble green & bubble red… I dun care sgt as long as I have one… heheh

BabyGAP

Dont you just love babyGAP? hehe...

I had another check up today with the gynae... It was supposed to be yesterday, but I changed it la today. Saturday, alot easier as Amin can come along. Sekali, when i reached there around 11am, the nurse at the clinic's front desk asked me..

"takde buat appointment ya? walk in ya?"

I told her nope. I've already called to change.

"Lain kali kena call dulu. Skang u punya file takde dekat kita. Kena tunggu la..."

Me: "Tak dgr ker? SAYA DAH CALL" sambil muka yg sgt meluat ngan pompuan sorang tu... pekak kot dia?

Seriously, I cant stand the nurses there at the hospital, sungguh la berlagak bagus... not my fault the file takde kan... one of u at the hospital, clearly tak wat kerja kan. cesh...

And mmg serious lama tunggu to get the freaking file. Luckily Amin just stood up and asked her. hehe.. padan muka kau... I just smiled from my seat... Ngan jantan boleh pulak ckp bebaik eh kau?! Takpe, I wont be seeing her often, nak tukar pergi jumpa my gynae at her own clinic. Yipee!

Dr said, everything is alrite.. in position and everything's doing well. Masa tgh tgk dia, the baby was playing with his hands... mcm mencakar2 langit.. hehe.. so cute! He's actively moving in the tummy... :)

oh yes, ladies and gentleman... dr showed us his lil thing..hehhe.. so cute.. my little one, is A BOY!

I will upload his latest pic.. but sadly my scanner is acting up... meanwhile... enjoy these pics down here... hehe.. baju2 kesukaan ibu dan bapanya.. hheheh.. I just love the hoodie.. !

Bear hoodie logo one-piece Plush bear zip-up hoodie

ALritey... Im off to my auntie's house... Yaya nak balik dah ke Doha.. So, byebye!

18 Weeks on Xmas Day

Your baby is twice as big as he was last month but he still weighs only about 190g (6.7oz). Meanwhile, most of the weight you've gained is from amniotic fluid, placenta, and water retention. Although things may seem calm on the surface, your little one is kicking, flexing, reaching, rolling, and even sucking his thumb now. If you haven't felt him move yet, you will in the next few weeks. His hearing is now functioning and he will be listening to your heartbeat.

Your baby is approximately 6 inches/ 14.2 centimetres long from crown to rump and she weighs about 7 ounces/ 190 grams. Her chest moves up and down to mimic breathing but she's not taking in air, only amniotic fluid.

A mid-pregnancy ultrasound scan is often done sometime in the second trimester (usually between 18 and 22 weeks) to assess fetal growth and development, screen for certain birth defects, check the placenta and umbilical cord and determine whether the gestational age is accurate. During this scan, you might see your baby kick, flex, reach, roll, or even suck her thumb. Bring your partner along, and whether or not he's able to accompany you, make sure you ask for printouts of the baby in various poses.

If you're having a girl, the vagina, uterus, and fallopian tubes are in place. If it's a boy, the genitals are distinct and recognisable. If you are carrying more than one baby, check out our section on twins or more.

• Note: Experts say every baby develops differently -- even in utero. These fetal development pages are designed to give a general idea of how a fetus grows in the womb.

Rainy day

I've aways thought that am one lucky person...

But I guess I was wrong... or maybe, not anymore...

I cant stop crying since I woke up this morning... alot of things came crossed my mind.. i am stil in pain, for a stupid MISTAKE that someone else did. wait, not just once, but too many times...

Its getting unbearable... I cant cope with it anymore...

I feel so depressed and he claimed that I am living in the past.

You wouldnt know, until u face it yourself. Which I pray you will.

**********

Im sorry, my lil one. Sorry for dragging you into this today. I promise this will be the last day and I will be stronger that you will not see me cry again.

You are the reason thats keeping me alive.

I thank God for giving me, you...

Pregnancy Book

Today, I ajak Amin pegi cari Pregnancy book kat Borders.. and dia bersetuju? wahh saya terkejut... mungkin mahu memujuk? hmmm mungkin!

cari punya la cari, tapi satu pun tak jumpa yg best... and then move it move it ker MPH and still ... nada! cesss... c'mon...! I cant even jumpa a magazine pasal pregnancy... I got one la.. but it was RM 24! Hmm takyah! Baik gi makan! hehe..

So, I sedar one thing... pasal makan is that, I dah start suka something... that is Caesar's Salad and COKE! hhehe.. Tonite I had CS kat O'Briens... sgt tak sedap.. unlike the one I had yesterday at DOME... but too bad that place punya service sgt la teruk... Next one, yg mmg tau best giler is Calamari CS!!! I love love love! Coffee Bean pun used to have nice CS but too bad, Amin hate it there... and I dun think Coffee Bean sebest dulu pun... hmmm...

hmmm so I guess, I harapkan online jer la kan and read all i can in here... But if you haf a suggestion on a good pregnancy book, do let me know ok? Im agreeing with Amee, yang buku "what to expect when you are expecting" tu mmg tak best.. and Its number 1 best? hmm... wat can i say...

My next appointment with my gynea will be on Saturday... and this time we'll get to see the sex of the baby.... hmm... girl or boy? heheh.. oh yeah, tak main secret2.. its our 1st baby and u think we haf the kesabaran? hahah.. boy or girl, it doesnt matter... coz we're gonna love the baby just the same... and the baby will be strong, independent, beradab and of coz kepandaian... walau girl or boy... :D

and sempena dpt baby nih... I so want to add this to my collection... (Jess, pls ok... you dah beli byk sgt for us.. heheh..)



nice huh?

oklah.. me wanna go sleep... pening kepala la plak.. dunno why!

Happy Birthday

Well, Belated Birthday to my cousin, Amin... he's hmm wait, 24 kot this year... I lost track of org2 punya age la skang.. :P U guys are growing up so fast.. means im getting older!! He celebrated his bday on the 19th Dec.

And today, to Wawa... Dia pun 24 this year. :)

Hope both had a great birthday this year!

Aiyok, baru teringat, my old fren, Saza, celebrate her birthday on the 19th gak! Hope she had a good time too!

Baby @ 17 weeks

Your baby is now nearly 5.5 inches/ 13 centimetres long from crown to rump and weighs approximately 5 ounces/ 140 grams. Her skeleton is mostly rubbery cartilage, which will harden later. A protective substance called myelin slowly begins to wrap around the spinal cord.

With the help of a special stethoscope, you can now hear your baby's heartbeat. There's almost nothing more comforting or exciting than hearing your baby's heartbeat galloping along. On days when you're worried about how your pregnancy is progressing, hearing the heartbeat lets you know that your baby's developing and growing. For times when boredom strikes and you feel as if you'll be pregnant forever, it can be a pleasant reminder of what will come at the end of 40 weeks of waiting.

Your growing uterus has shifted your centre of gravity and you've probably been feeling a bit off-kilter. Be careful and wear low-heeled shoes. Finding it hard to settle when you go to bed? Check our tips for sleep in the second trimester.

If you haven't had an amniocentesis yet and plan to, this week is a good time. One perk: You'll get a long look at your baby through the ultrasound scan used during this procedure.

Blood Type

Blood test twice a year, for 27 years of my life and only yesterday that I found out my blood type... hahah...

how can that be kan?

I had my monthly check up with my physician yesterday. But sadly my thyroid level dropped. The last time was alot better. But, it could also be the reason that Im sharing it with the lil one.. so, I have to increase the dosage. Aish. Nevermind. The doc said that not to worry, just the the medicine, and all will be fine.

Anyhow, she's happy with my body is now. She said, I am alot better than before... as in like the tempreture of my body is warm like how it shud be, my pulse and everything else... improved alot. So, that's a good sign...

She also mentioned that, for a hypothyroid... agak susah for me to get pregnant.. takde kena mengena ngan gene ok... tak kisah la kalau husband gagah perkasa pun, gene dia boleh kalah kan org anak 12org.. but my thyroid level needs to be PERFECT.. baru la boleh pregnant... Thats also wat the gynae told me... apa apa pun, the physician said, just keep up with my health condition skang. Insyallah, nak anak berderet pun boleh... :) Insyallah.

What's important... she said that she's not worried now about the baby... since my body suma dah ok... so yeay!

Sambil menyelam minum air, I went thru my blood test and urine test result that I wat late last month with my physician... so, yeah... she said everythings doing great... nuthing to worry about.. suma ok... yg paling i risau, that is rubella pun NEGATIVE... so fuishh.. Alhamdulillah. Lega.

Im looking forward to meet up my cousin yg doctor2 tu.. Ady or Kak Ju, mana2 la dulu.. and I need to sit down with them and explain to me all about the test result.. Walaupun, my gynae will explain when I see her end of tis month. just tak sabar..!!

lain citer pulak, nak tanya the gynae if I could do check up at her clinic pasnih, than kat hospital...She has her own clinic kat Subang tu gak... so I could save alot more... hehe.. since Im paying the bills on my own (tho my parents adalah offer to help financialy, but bukan la ego, kalau I still can manage I on my own will not ask from them) hehe.. but, seeing 2 doctors every month is so so mengeringkan balance di bank.. hehe.. im not complaining here.. but, I need to think of ways for me to save up biler bersalin pulak... which I hope I will be able to simpan la, in 5 months time...

But, rezeki tak kemana kan? Insyallah.. I can make it. Its important for me to give the best 4 the baby and make sure that everything goes well. At least I did the best that I could.

The downside is that, now both doctors are in SJMC, so both of them can refer to my file and update masing2 with my progress.. you know.. lebih terjaga kalau camtu.. let the file, notes between my two docs do the talking kan? Kalau I dah pindah ke clinic tu, my physician wont be able to know my progress with my gynae.. aishh.. how leh? Will ask her pendapat as well on this la nanti...

Berbalik kepada topic... my blood type is AB+ and the good thing bout it is im universal recipient.. hehe Goodie! But it is rather rare... hm.. hubs lagi la rare, he is [Group B Rhesus Negative] whatever that means la.. haha.. but, one time he donated blood, and the Pusat Darah Neegara gave him a card and a letter saying that his type is VERY rare and menjemput wat to donate blood lagi.. and on his card it says..

Important:-
If this person requires blood transfusion he/she should be given ONLY RHESUS NEGATIVE blood

:P so oleh itu, I was decision to put the card in his wallet.. dari letak kat umah nak watper kan? coz, langkah berjaga2 la.. kalau emergency, takde la terkepoh2...

anyways, have you heard of the Japanese blood type theory of personality...?

Well, I find it so true! Well, at least for me.. hehee

Best traits > Cool, controlled, rational
Worst traits > Critical, indecisive

Sgt la! hahah...!

Alritey.. Im sleepy tho bukannya esok kerja pun.. muaahahah... selamat bekerja kepada mereka2 di MECC dan sewaktu dengannya...! Lepas Christmas baru kita berjumpa ya?

Adios! Nites!

Eiffel Tower Part 2

16 weeks today

I am 16weeks today.. that also means, 4 months baby!


Your baby is now about the size of an avocado (about 5 inches / 11.6 centimetres long from crown to rump and weighing approximately 4 ounces / 100 grams). In the next three weeks he'll go through a tremendous growth spurt, doubling his weight and adding inches to his length.

In or out of the womb, babies are playful creatures. Yours may already have discovered his first toy -- the umbilical cord -- which he'll enjoy pulling and grabbing. Sometimes he may even clutch it so tight that less oxygen gets through, but don't worry -- he doesn't hold onto it long enough to harm himself. The circulatory system and urinary tract are in full working order, and he's inhaling and exhaling amniotic fluid through his lungs.

Sometimes, when you move suddenly, you may a feel a slight pain in your sides. Ligaments on each side of your uterus and pelvic walls are stretching as your baby grows. It's normal to feel some pain, but if it continues for a few days or escalates, talk to your midwife.

We've a guide to make sure you eat well in the next stage of your pregnancy.

Hari Raya Haji

Not as I expected...

I got pretty upset half of the day...

the only thing that cheered me up was having Lil Khalis and Lil Cik Da around with their jokes and just them being them...

A few ppl that I didnt want to meet or be in the same room with, esp during Raya... was there.. the whole day... aish...! Some ppl who just cant just shut their bloody mouth with nuthing better things to say... ok, thats just one actually. But, as much as I didnt want to let that effect me, but it still does till today...

I wish I can tell that person off... but thats not how my parents taught me.. well, to be disrespect with org tua... SO lucky la sgt that person..

Im preggie, and havent you heard... dont mess with us ppl? My mood is so tak menentu...

The other good part is, I was at my parents... I miss my room so much.. I miss having everything that I had.. I miss being alone in my own room, doing my own thing... all I think about is just myself in that room... I had my own privacy...

Just radio and MY selecion of songs... temaning the whole time.. goshh!

With the baby that will be coming in 5 months time... I can just forget bout that alone time kan? hehe... Well, at least I will be with someone that I will LOVE unconditionaly and someone who will not HURT me.. well, for that point of time la... harap2 masa dah besar pun tak la...

Oh, I did 5 ketuls of ketupat on my own..! yeay, earlier I was so bengang coz I totally lupa how to do, sekali, my auntie tunjuk balik the part where I got stucked.. hehe.. so happy...

My rayas are not the same anymore.. missing my grandparents, oh so much.. Well, Im just so used to having them masa all the rayas.. with my cousins and now most of them are married and since dah takde mak tok, lagi la kurang yg beraya kat ss2 tu.. sad.. sad.. sad..

but, still, my uncles still made a point to raya sana gak.. bermakna la gak rayaku itu... with oh so sedap punya rendang.. hehe.. raya just means alot to me.. coz, ntah la, dari kecik... raya tu has been a BIG thing for me.. and my grandparents.. and mom tak pernah miss to make sure that I have (and bro too) baju raya and lengkap la segala nya for raya... yeap, with her own $$..

Ohh, did I tell you...? Puas la tahun ni makan rendang ayam and ketupat, kuah lodeh and sambal sotong.. yum yum yum... dah setahun terlepas makan rendang family sendiri.. so, mmg tak lepas peluang la.. kira2 ada la 4 round makan that day jer.. best best best...! kalau tak, mmg cam tak lengkap jer raya.. tak pun the next day dah rasa cam "adoii nyesal nya tak makan puas2"... this time, not the case! mmg suka and puas!!

Lagi2 rindu gak time ss2 frens will wat rondaan ke umah fat then umah farah.. tho jarang2 la i join dorang nih, tapi biler dpt tu mmg best la.. hehe..

but, I shud count my blessings... I still have my parents.. married and alive.. I get to spend another raya with them.. so, if its my turn to raya with them, I dun give a toot of anything else that comes between... coz, sepanjang dorang masih hidup.. cherish every moment you can with them.. coz kalau dah terlambat, takde maknanya dah... takyah la time tu baru nak nyesal pelbagai.. so, I am so so looking forward to raya puasa with them next year.... more than anything in the world...

nah, we didnt take any pics.. coz ntah la.. takde mood jer..

Baby updates

I just got a call from my mom...Dr Delaila's clinic just called her to inform on my blood & urine test that I took masa our last oppointment... that was on the 28/11/08

The test was to check :-

1) The risk of Down Syndrome.
2) Syphilis, Rubella, HIV and seangkatan dgn nya

the result is negative.

At this point, Im thankful. :D Happy.

Syukur Alhamdulillah.

15 weeks today

You may not know it when it happens, but your tiny tenant frequently gets the hiccups, which babies master before breathing. Babies don't make any sound because their trachea is filled with fluid rather than air.

Although you've probably gained between 5 and 10 pounds / 2.2 - 4.5 kilograms, the fetus weighs in at around only 2.5 ounces / 70 grams. It measures nearly 4 inches / 11 centimetres long, crown to rump. Legs are growing longer than the arms now, fingernails are fully formed and all the joints and limbs can move. You may be able to find out the sex of your baby by ultrasound now, since the external genitals may be developed enough that the ultrasound technician can tell you if you're going to have a boy or a girl.

If the idea of having a baby seems so remote, nothing makes it feel more real than feeling your baby move for the first time. Most mums-to-be discern movement (called quickening) between 16 and 20 weeks. If you've been pregnant before, you'll feel things earlier rather than later. What you may first think is a rumbling stomach may be your baby doing some back flips. Make note of when you first start feeling the baby and tell your midwife at your next visit. This middle stage of pregnancy is a good time to start exercising.
