Hari-hari biasa

Sabtu. 21hb Ogos 2010. Hari ke tujuh kelahiran. Maka..

Aidan bam bam dah botaks! hehe. Aidan suka benar dibotakkan. Sampai tersenyum2. Terasa comellah tu. ;p

Harini baru hari ke 9 saya berpantang. Terseksa sungguhlah. Lebih2 lagi sekarang ni bulan puasa. Haih. Makanan lazat2 punyalah banyak. Tapi saya hanya mampu tengok. Tiap2 hari kena hadap ikan haruan. Sampai nak makan nasi pon dah naik malas. Haha. Dugaan ramadhan sungguhlah. Seksaan berpantang lebih teruk daripada bersalin. Siapa punya idealah pantang2 bagai ni. Sabar jelah.

On the other note, hubby dah balik KL and I really miss my man. I miss my home and I miss OU also. Haha.

Oklah, dah tiba waktu untuk permaisuri beradu sementara Aidan bam bam tengah syok di alam mimpi. Sebelum tu, some photos just for dearest aunties yang tak sabar nak jumpe Aidan bam bam. ;D

The Birth Story : Aidan Damian

People around us always told that giving birth is the scariest experience a woman would have. Towards the end of the pregnancy, I was always nervous and scared too. But then, after experiencing it first-handedly, though it is not as smooth as I thought, giving birth is not that scary. Well, the pain tu, memanglah sakit yang hanya tuhan saja yang tahu tapi it is still managable. Seriously! Let me tell you my 1st experience of giving birth though it may bore you. Haha.

I started to feel the mild contractions when all of us bukak puase at 7.30pm on Saturday. Since it was just a mild contractions and I always got the false alarm, I ignored the pain. Then, around 8pm, the contractions were a bit frequent, continued once every 10 mins. By then I already knew that the time has come. At 10.30pm, we went to the hospital and I was admitted. Contractions still there tapi menurut nurse, jalan masih belum buka. So, I hang in there between the false alarm and the true contractions. Saya mahu saja pulang ke rumah, tapi nurse tak bagi. Huhu. Hubby said, "Kalo false alarm awak, macamane? Memalukan. Haha" Ok. Saya pasrah.

3.30am, Sunday: Saya terjaga and the contractions started again. Tapi kalini lebih sakit berbanding malam tadi. Masa nak ke toilet, I saw blood stains already. So, it was confirmed not a false alarm. I cudnt sleep since then. I walked around the labour room to ease the pain. Menurut nurse, the contractions dah masuk 2nd stage dan sebab tu dah semakin sakit. Tapi, saya masih boleh bertahan. I didnt take any pain killer at that time and still can bergambar2 bersama hubby dan bergelak ketawa dan bertxting with all my gfs.

10.30am: Hubby wasnt at the labour room as he went to the room that I have booked untuk mandi and lepak with his brother for a while. And surprisingly, my gynae went in to check my condition. He wasnt happy with the baby position at that time. The contractions were at 2-3mins but the baby's head still wasn't engaged well. Jalan pun baru buka 3 cm. Biasanya, untuk contractions 2-3mins, jalan dah buka at least by 6cm. He was worried that the baby is too big that I couldnt manage to push him out normally. So the gynae cuba untuk pecahkan air ketuban. Dalam keadaan mamai and hubby wasnt there, the gynae did pecahkan air ketuban. Sangat sakit sampai saya menangis. Tuhan saja yang tahu. Then the gynae told me, in 4 hours, kalau jalan tak buka jugak, I need to go for c-sect.

Right after the gynae went out, I quickly called hubby. I was crying like a baby to ease my pain. Dan selepas air ketuban pecah, sakit contractions is about selang seminit dan hanya tuhan saja yang tahu betapa sakitnya. I was shivering untuk menahan sakit every time I felt the contractions. But then, I didnt ask for any drugs to ease the pain sampai nurse yang jaga saya kasihan dan suruh saya sedut gas. At first, saya menolak coz saya baca that laughing gas tak adalah berkesan sangat. Tapi since the nurse dh 3-4 kali pujuk saya suruh sedut, saya cubalah jugak 2-3 kali. Dan memang betul pun. Tak adalah berkesan. Makin pening adalah. So saya stop. Cuba bertahan sampai doctor datang at 2.30pm. Luckily, I have a very supportive hubby that always be my side that time. Sampai ngantuk2 dia tunggu kat tepi katil coz everytime saya rasa sakit saya akan genggam tangan dia kuat2 to ease the pain. And it works bebeh!

2.30pm: The gynae came in to check my condition again. Surprisingly, jalan baru buka 4 cm tapi saya dah rasa sangat lemah and shivering everytime saya rasa the contractions pain. The gynae advise to go for C-sect but he still gave me the option for normal delivery if I could wait for 5-6 hours lagi. MasyaAllah. I cried. I told hubby that I wont have the energy anymore if I wait for another 5-6 hours. Itu pun nasib, kalau jalan dah buka 10cm. Kalau tak, I have to wait again. So after several discussions, we agreed for the C-sect.

3.00pm: I was the in the OT. There are lots of nurses and doctors in there. I think about 10 if not mistaken. And I was given several drugs and I believed one of it is of course Epidural sebab nak bius half of the body saja. Everything was fast in the OT macam dalam citer ER pulak rasanya. Semua kelam kabut. I was relieved from the pain once I was given the Epidural. Then, I heard my gynae's voice. So hati sudah sangat berdebar memikirkan, bilalah die nak potong perut saya. And saya juga terbayang kalau2 the Epidural is not effective enough. But then, in 10 mins, the gynae told me, baby dah keluar and I heard his voice, crying continously. During that, the gynae siap terkejut sebab the baby is so big, about 8 pounds dia kata. Dan memang betul, after the weight scaling, the baby weigh is 3.83kg.

I was crying soundlessly after hearing his voice. Seriously, I felt so relieved. My baby is healthy and chubby. Saya sempat cium dia, before he went out from the OT. The gynae also told me, luckily I go for C-sect, sebab if I tried untuk normal delivery pun tak guna since the baby takkan boleh muat nak keluar. And he scared, shoulder bone baby boleh patah kalau tak muat. Fuhh. I was relieved then sampai saya terus tertidur time doctor sibuk jahit menjahit perut balik. Hihi. Punyalah penat sampai tidur tak sedar yang everything dah siap.

So, that was the end of the birth story. Sakit lepas kene bedah, macam biasalah. I cant bangun or even bersandar for almost a day. Nak mengiring tak boleh. So sangatlah berusaha time the 1st breastfeeding session. Hehe. And that's another story. ;)

Date of Birth: 15 August 2010

Time: 3.34pm

Gestational: 39 weeks and 3 days

Welcome to the world, Aidan Damian and to hubby, thank you so much for everything that you have given and done for me;) Mummy loves you both so much! Muahhhs..

Balik Kampung..Hati Riang

Tahu tak itu apa? Bukan seekor alien pet atau labah2 atau obor2. Kalau nak tahu, itulah air kacip fatimah yang original punya. Orang kata, air kacip fatimah ni macam air selusuh untuk menyenangkan proses bersalin. Jadi saya cubalah. Pakcik saya beli masa die pergi umrah. Tapi betapa terseksanya minum air ini. Bau dia. Perrrghhh. Masyaallah. Tuhan je yang tahu. Huhu. Pijoi pon tak sanggup nak bau. Tapi selalu paksa saya minum. Malam tadi je saya ngelat tak minum. Haha. Keberkesanan? Nanti saya cekidout.

Harini nak balik kampung! Wohooo. Dua bulan dah saya tak balik JB. Eksaited gile!

Tengok banyakkan barang baby boy? Macam nak pindah rumah. Ni pon dh hantar separuh ke JB. Tak sangka boleh jadi sebanyak ni. Huhu.

Cepatnya masa berlalu. Baby boy dah 39 weeks and 1 day. Macam tak percaya saya dah bawa budak kecik ni ke mana2 for 9 months. Macam tak percaya yang lepas ni, saya ada budak kecik untuk digomol setiap hari. Tak percayalah. Haha. Rasa macam mahu melahirkan seorang adik bukan anak. Tapi hati sangatlah tidak sabar mahu melihat sendiri budak kecik yang dah diangkut 9 bulan dengan jayanya. Doa2kanlah budak kecik mahu keluar weekend ni jadi abah baby boy boleh teman saya. Sedih pulak rasanya bila nak hidup berjauhan dengan suami. Perasaan macam nak kena pergi outstation berbulan2. (T_T)

Apapun, doakan semuanya baik dan selamat ya rakan2 yang baik hati. Selamat berpuasa ;)

Size Does Matter

One happy mommy after got her Chicken Mandy at Al-Rawsha. Love you sayang:)

And

The lil boy inside me at 38 weeks. Big, round, and cute. Hehe
Afterall, size really does matter isnt it?;p

Another story

Dulu saya ingat mengidam itu adalah nafsu semata. Nafsu yang sebenarnya boleh dikawal. Tapi sejak saya ternampak that Chicken Mandy photo yang Wawa uploaded in the FB like last month, seriously I cant stop thinking about it until now. And yes, until now I havent got the chance to taste it. Though I keep on reminding the hubby to bring me there, but most of the time, mesti ada saja hal. He was busylah, we were up for something else lah, until last week, when my other pregnant lunchmate told me she had it for breakfast, I was like so envy. Why on earth I still havent got the chance to have it but she can have it even for breakfast? And when I told hubby, I wanted it so badly, but still hubby said he was so busy that day, I was crying. I was surprised too like what the heck I'm crying in the office because the hubby told me he was busy and cant bring me to Al-Rawsha? But the frustration wasnt stop there and continued in the morning when I told hubby how frustrated I am, and without notice, my tears dropped again.

Well, knowing the hubby, he is not the type of hubby that will follow everything that I want. No excuse even though I am carrying his son. He expressed his frustration towards me as well and said I'm just being so mengada. He said, "there are people who dont have food to eat but you, you are just crying because you cant have that chicken mandy." Obviously, I was a bit sad then and merajuk for 5 mins. But after further thoughts, yes I agree. Maybe I am just being so childish for that. So the case is closed. But I still crave for that minus the crying part. Hehe. Now, I still keep on thinking that maybe mengidam is just my own lust! Heh.

Btw, the weekend was spent very well at Taiping though at first I had scary thought of being delivered the baby at Taiping. Haha. But then, bila dah sampai, sangat seronok bila pulang bukan berdua sahaja. Adik-beradik Pijoi semua ada kecuali Kakak dan Ayip. Kami buat bbq 2 days in a row for lunch. Hehe. Idea Pijoi. And not bad for his 1st attempt of his own recipe to marinate the Chicken and lamb for the 1st day and the fish for the 2nd day. Yummy! Saya asyik makan, makan, dan makan. Hihi.

And before went back home yesterday, saya berkesempatan untuk meminta maaf to Ibu Pijoi and asked her to pray for me and the baby. To be surprised, she didnt only give me the kisses as usual but a kiss for the baby too. Yes, she kissed my belly too and told baby boy to be nice to me. Hehe. I was so touched till I felt like crying but I didnt. Malulah saya kalau nangis. Huhu. But hopefully, baby boy feels the loves from his Mak Tok too.:)

Dilemma

Sejak akhir-akhir ni, memang sukalah sakit perut memulas. Tak paham kenapa. Bila lapar, memulas, nak be*ak, memulas, ada angin memulas, dan macam-macam lah lagi. Memang tak paham. Tapi si ibu mengandung tidak lagi freak out rasa nak bersalin ke apa. Dah semakin rilek. Menanti dengan penuh kesabaran. Eceh. Tapi bersyukurlah jugak sebab setakat ini tak ada pulak heart burn, kaki pun tak bengkak, cuma gemuk sikit, pinggang tu kadang-kadang je sakit. Alhamdulillah untuk kesihatan yang baik.

Paling seronok, semalam check up, baby boy dah 2.7kg. huhu. Cepatnya besar. Last month baru 2kg je. Patutlah mummy pun cepat membesar. Baby boy nak suruh mummy teman dia membesar rupanya. Haha. Daddy pulak yang ngade-ngade nak mengurus. Dia kata nak cuba sama berat dengan ibu mengandung. Huh. Membencikan.

Oh ya. Nak ucap tahniah kat bapak baby boy sebab dah officially promoted jadi senior. Tapi yang sedihnya, tengah off peak pun dah mula nak balik lambat. Nanti during peak macamana? Nampak gayanya, mummy tengok muka baby boy, baby boy tengok muka mummy sajelah. Sobss. Sobss. Seperti ibu dan anak yang terabai. Huhu. Anyway, ibu mengandung juga dimurahkan rezeki. Gaji naik sampai menggembirakan. Comel sungguhlah company saya. Jadi dengan seronoknya, dapatlah ibu mengandung melengkapkan semua barang baby boy. Sekarang dah boleh bersalin dengan tenang dan aman damai. Huhu.

Sebut pasal bersalin, sejak akhir-akhir ni, terasa yang amat nak bersalin di KL. Rasa macam lebih menggembirakan. Terbayang lepas bersalin, kawan-kawan semua datang melawat. Jadi kuranglah rasa kesakitan. Tapi kalau di JB, siapa nak lawat? Nurse dan gynae sajalah. Sobss. Malas nak fikir. Baby boy, please decide. Arahan pertama mummy!

My Story

This week marks the 36th week of my pregnancy. Oh how time flies so fast. It's almost full term and the baby is ready to meet his daddy and mommy anytime soon. ;)

But thinking of the pregnancy journey will be ended soon, it makes me sad at the same time. I know I'm going to miss the whole my 1st pregnancy journey. Miss all the good and exciting feelings. Ahh, you knowlah how excited this mommy-to-be is on what to expect everyday, always wondering how she would look in a month time, to notice the 1st baby's movements, etc, etc. Ahhhh..that is called bliss. Surely, it's the best moment in my life. :)

I know that I'm pregnant as early as 3 weeks after my wedding since I had a mild nausea especially right after brushing my teeth in the morning. Though I didnt really sure about it but I know there was something wrong with me. Did I tell you that I was scared as well at that time? Who doesnt anyway especially when you just got married. Well, I really didnt expect it would be that super fast. Huhu. But afterall, the hubby eagerness and excitedness to have a baby makes me feel confident that I'm also ready for any future possibility. Chewah!

But, the first 4 months of the pregnancy journey was not good for me. Seriously it is physically and mentally challenged. I doubted whether I'm ready for this when I was having all those morning sickness thingy and physical changes. I still remembered how I hate food but I need food most of the time to fill my tummy. Else, sakit perut. I cant eat almost everything especially those oily ones, thus I hate KFC so much. My fav food was milk and fruits until one day I vomitted the milk, so goodbye to the fresh milk after that. Haha. I also hate times when I was full. I felt like vomitting but I tried to not too, I cant lying down so I slept sit up straight till morning, my belly felt like bloated though I was hungry, dizziness for 24/7 and bla bla. Sometimes, I felt like it was a super bad nightmare. Urghh.

And everything was like super hard when the hubby went outstation for 3 weeks. Gosh. But, how did I tackle this? I talked to the baby to calm me down, always looked at the baby's scan to forget the sickness, and of course pray to Allah to give me the strength to go through it. And Alhamdulillah, believe it or not everything is just fine. ;)

Like most of the preggers have told, second trimester is the best pregnancy journey ever. It is so true bebeh. The morning sickness is suddenly gone, I love foods, foods and foods. I can already cook my meal and that is the best meal ever. And the hormone makes me a super happy mommy-to-be. Yes. Since pregnant, I was like super happy though I might crying to certain things sometimes. And certainly, I feel the love everywhere. Oh, did I tell you that I like to see myself in the mirror cause I feel preety and beautiful? Perasan giler. But that's what I did. Kah kah.

Early of 3rd trimester was ok until the middle of the 3rd trimester when I started to feel a lil bit unwell and useless sometimes. I cant do much chores and much walking anymore since I'm easily get tired. Especially when I'm an anemic. But the baby's kickings and movements are priceless as compared to any discomforts that I have. I feel blessed, loved, and so happy till I am surely know that I'm going to miss it. Seriously now I cant wait to hold and kiss the lil heart but at the same time I want to be a pregger. Huhu.

To those who scared to be pregnant, please dont be cause it is the best moment in a women's life;) Minus the delivery lah cause I'm yet to know. Let me check it out, how scary it is. Haha.

P/S: To hubby, thank you so much for your support and help throughout the whole journey. Without you it would be much difficult and wont be this wonderful. And the awesome friends, you guys are rocks! Colour my life as gorgeous as the rainbow. Hundred zillions thanks and loves from the mommy and baby for everything. :)
