Antenatal checkup update

Last wednesday, i went for the much awaited antenatal checkup. Went out from the house later than usual but managed to reach the hosp before the aptmt time. Did the usual stuffs, weighing scale, urinate, waiting....

When i finally got called to the Dr's room, gila excited. Tak kira, apa nak jadik pun, i must get scanned that day. So after a short chat with the doc abt my current condition (i complained of coughing and runny nose that hasn't got better after a week), she showed me to the checking table. Baring2 je, the nurse took my b.p, and when the Dr came to palpate my tummy, i asked if we could do a scan. She said sure, if i wanted to see how the baby is doing... :D Should've done the same thing the previous visit. :p

So as she scanned me tummy, i looked at the screen... and there he/she was... lying there with the legs folded and one hand kinda waving. Nampak side view. Saw the jawline, that cute little stub of nose, and 5 fingers. At first the baby was sitting directly under the belly button kot, so there was some kind of shadow casted onto the image and the dr tried to push the baby so that s/he changes position and we could determine if it's a boy or girl. All the baby did was to tilt his/her bottom a bit, and that's it. We couldn't see the genitals, and we couldn't know if it's a girl or a boy. Hmmm... rasanya nak pergi scan lagi when hubby is around. Scan je la kat clinic mana2. :) Comel sgt. When the dr tried to push some more, dia dok gerak2 tangan dia. Hehe.. protes la pulak. :p I asked the doc to get a good image to print, and i've already scanned it into my notebook. Tgklah, kalau ada masa blog from home, bley upload the pic skali. :) So happy.

After the scan, the dr gave me 2 days mc for me to have a good rest at home at get myself better form the cough n cold and she reminded me to actually balik n rest instead of going shopping. Hehe. Takdela nak shopping2 bebulan pose ni. Tak larat!

Smpi umah mak ngah, cerita kat mama tak nampak girl ke boy. Mama ckp dia rasa girl sbb pembesaran aku secara mengembang ke sisi. Hahahaa... tatau la. Ramai dah ni yg ckp girl. I also dunno.

Barang2 baby satu pun tak beli lagi. Planning to do so bila masuk 7th mth. Tak tau which to get first, barang2 yg kecik2 (i.e clothing, bottles) or barang yg besar2 (cot, car seat). Isk.. nak kena buat budgeting gak nih. The best time to shop masa megacarnival sale nanti la.. Tp.. larat ke aku nak bershopping masa tu? Hmm.. positive thinking.. larat!! :)

Tak sabar tunggu hubby balik from belgium nak tunjuk the original print. Haritu dah email kat dia the scanned print..tp cam tak puas hati. Hahahaa...

Okies. nak take a nap jap. ngantuk la masa2 lunch hour ni, w/o anything to do.

Many things happened last week, tapi cam tak terpost. Heh.

Graduation

We had the DPA graduation on tuesday, 190906 with the rehearsal being held for the whole day on monday. It was kinda grand, held in PICC n stuffs, bt somehow, the feel of it wasn't any close to the feeling i felt during my undergrad convo. Dunno why. We were wearing the baju istiadat lengkap and all tapi the feeling of greatness and 'wow'ness tu not nearly as intense as the feelings i had during undergrad. Janji yang bestnya, my hubby was around, and i didn't have to go to the office for 2 days. Hehe... tugas rasmi tau!

Ganti Puasa

For a coouple of days last week and the previous week, i'd been trying very hard to ganti all my puasa last year. Alhamdulillah, i succeeded!! Although my last day of ganti puasa was quite tiring and i caught a cold and was coughing pretty bad at the end of the ganti puasa duration. All is good now, and i'm currently on my 3rd day of fasting, like everybody else. Hopefully diberi kekuatan untuk terus berpuasa for the whole duration of Ramadhan. :)

Much awaited checkup

Tmrw will be the day of my much awaited checkup. The dr will probably do a scan and with God's will, we'd be able to see the gender of the baby. I think i've begun to feel the baby moving in my womb. Not sharp kicks though, just mild 'movements' strong enough for me to feel when i'm sitting down doing nothing or putting my hand on my tummy. :) Cool!

Yang tak bestnya abt tmrw's checkup is that my hubby won't be around. Last time he followed, the Dr didnt do any scans, so he couldnt see how the baby had moved n all.. Tmrw, again, last minute call for him to fly to Belgium, a new destination, somewhere they didnt even know where initially.( How stupid can a management of a company be kan? Taking a charter when you dont fucking know where the destination is. Greedy bastards. ) So hubby wont be around tmrw, again, he's gonna miss out the chance of seeing the baby move during the scan. I know he's upset about it, so am i... but there's really nothing much that we can do. dahla he's scheduled for simulator masa raya. Bangang betul. All the non muslims dapat cuti masa raya. Last year pun camtu gak. Muslims fly during raya, non muslims cuti, lepak mengangkang kat rumah. Sons of bitches. :p Stupid company run by racist idiots.

Pot Luck

Harini we had this 'kenduri' thingy at the office, sempena menyambut ketibaan Ramadhan. It's a pot luck kinda thing, so everyone had to bring sth la. We started in the morning with Yasin recital, and continued all the way to lunch. Hehhe.. tapi in the middle tu buat kerja la kan.

In the morning, we had the bosses bringing nasi kerabu n nasi dagang and another officer bringing meehoon and kuih and all those stuffs. Pretty good, all the food. Having time trying everything, walaupun ala2 dah makan mee goreng my mom made earlier at home. Hahaha...

After makan2, sambung kerja until about 11.45, and then proceeded to prepare for lunch. Seronok bila ramai2 buat kerja. Dahla most of the males pakai baju melayu. rasa macam raya pun ada gak. Masa lunch, baru la my pot luck keluar. I made the trifle pudding, which i had to look thru the net to remind me of the recipes, and mama made some daging dendeng for me to bring. :) Those two seemed to be hits!! Alhamdulillah. My boss siap tanya the recipe for daging dendeng and asked if my mom wants to accept orders. Hahaha. The younger officers were asking me how to make the trifle. Hahaha... macam terer je nak ajar org. :p Tp happy la, since everyone liked my pot luck. :)

Sebu je rasa perut today sbb byk mende sgt makan. Kembung makan buah pun ye jugak. Hahah... petang sambung division meeting plak. Nothing much la.. things abt the division.. bla..bla..

Hmm.. dahla.. ngantuk plak. adios.

Sehari suntuk di klinikkesihatan putrajaya

Waaahhh... sangat penat menunggu!! This morning decided nak pergi klinik kesihatan utk checkup antenatal gomen... Sbbnya, ramai org nasihatkan pegi, sbb checkupnye lagi menyeluruh, and kalau apa2 hal kena refer ke hosp gomen, senang. So i went la.

Around 8.30 camtu, sampai. Carik kaunter pertanyaan tadek plak. Dah salah amek nombor. Main blasah tanya gak sesapa... dia kata kalau untuk kehamilan kaunter 7.. Oo.. mana la tau. Bukan tiap2 thn preknen checkup kat situ pun... Anyways, dpt nombor 3074.. yg sedang dipanggil 3055... Perhh... masak gak nak menunggu. Tp turned up tak la selama yg diimaginasikan.. Lebih kurang kol 9.15, dia panggil, amek details dan disuruh ke lab utk amek darah + check urine.

Kat lab ni lama gak menunggu. Dahla kerusi tak cukup. Berdiri la kat situ. Duduk jauh2 kang takut tak dgr plak bila nama kena panggil. Dah sekian lama, baru la nurse panggil suh collect urine. Nurse kat situ cam hempeh sket. Tanya org nama pun mcm nak mkn org. Rilek aa. :p Nurse yang kat dlm amek darah tu ok. Senyum je, kita pun tak geram walau kena tunggu lama.

Pastu menunggu lagi, untuk masuk bilik checkup. Ingat by dr.. rupanya misi... Pastu kang nak kena refer to dr plak. Iskkkkkkkk. Masa kat misi dia check heartbeat, berat, tinggi.. (blh tak tinggi aku 154cm je. Mana lagi 4 cm??? Musykil!) Pastu, nak terangkan lab result, resultnya plak tak siap2.. tunggu plak lagi 15 menet. Tak siap gak, last2 dia suh gi jumpa dr terus... tadekla lama sgt menunggu katanya.

Nak jumpa dr ni ler yg lama gile. Adeyyy.. sebbaik ada kerusi. Penat menunggu. Jumpanya kejap je..ada la dlm 5 minit. Tp agak puas hati jugakla. Takdela rasa mcm jumpa dr pakistan kat usm dulu tuh.. sape ke nama dah lupa. Hahah. Dia check respiration, thyroid glands ngan kedudukan uterus. Ok la jugak...

Nak dekat kol 1, baru la settle semua. Baru masuk opis.. ish..ish.. Half day gone. Sorry ler taxpayers... kalau tau lmbt camni g checkup, tak buat deh masa keje. So sorry. Tp don't worry, keje gua jalan. :) Dah setel keje baru pegi checkup.

Wokeh.. tu je... diposting dgn kepala yg masih sakit. :p

Ramadhan dah dekat!!

Hmm.. pejam celik pejam celik, bulan posa dah nak tiba balik. Last year puasa ngan family, sibuk buat persiapan.. year b4 that, pose kat umah sewa.. n b4 that kat hostel, n b4 tht lagik kat kmk... heheh... kalau tiba bln pose ni, tak boleh t idak mesti terhengat gaya berpuasa zaman dulu2, masa single mingle. Thn ni 1st time nak berpuasa ngan hasben. Huhu.. pastu beraya plak ngan hasben.. dah tu berpuasa n beraya sambil ngandung lak tuh.. huhu.. cane ek?

Dedulu zaman berpuasa kat skolah all girls, biasa je. Time takleh puasa mmg selambedek je gi kantin beli air, food sume. Lepak luar kelas, mkn la ngn kengkawan lain yg takleh pose gak. Huhu.. tetiba teringat air oren aunty jual air kat kantin skolah dulu. Hisyyy... Suka kalau kena duty air, tlg aunty tu jual air. Hehe.. best woo.. air dlm cawan besar doposen, cawan kecik sposen, kalau bungkus nam posen. Air oren kordial bodo je.. tp sbb ada ais, kena plak masa bln posa yg panas terik.. perhh.. sedap gila.

Pastu zaman kat KMK, macam baik sikit la konon.. (baik ke perasan baik? :p ) Slalu sahur mmg mesti turun dewan makan sbb member sorang ni mmg kena makan, kalau tak nnt dia gastrik. Lps sahur, terus gi surau, tunggu subuh. Nnt petang plak, sape duty, kena prepare meja utk dorm mates sumer. Gilir2 la. Memula tu buka makan kurma sponsor dulu, pastu solat maghrib, pastu baru makan ramai2. Pastu solat isyak.. Pas isyak n terawih, ramai2 beratur beli burger ayam RM1.20 yang mayones dia punyala banyak melimpah2.

Masa kat tronoh, sesi makan sahur kol 2.30 pagi sbb malas nak bgn sahur pagi2. Kang balik terawih, singgah plak makan nasik lemak. Isk..isk...

Kat transkrian, dah pandai main masak2 dlm blk. Pagi2, tunggula kDilla datang ketuk bilik. Pastu kitorg ni mata separuh terbukak la sambil meniarap kat atas katil tgk kDilla n azno masak... masak telur ke, sadin ke. Pastu makan ramai2.. Sape tak masak, basuh pinggan. Hehe... petang pegi pasar ramadan, beli bersungguh2, makan sampai perut terik... Nak pergi terawih dah tak larat.. Last2, berterawih la dlm blk, gilir2 la sape jadik imam. Heheh.. Masa dok umah sewa, kekadang ikut akak gi terawih. Yg masak nasik slalu akak la.. sbb dia terer masak nasik tanpa rice cooker, yg aku pun dah pandai skang sbb walaupun rice cooker ada 3 kat umah, tp itu ini tak jumpa, jadik kena la masak nasik atas stove jugak. Plg best kalau buka pose ramai2... hehe.. pastu bila pegi bukak puasa kat otel... hehe... tiap2 thn punya agenda masa bln puasa. Huhu.. korg gi mana thn ni azeno????

Thn ni... wallahualam. Mungkin kena sahur n buka pose sensorang kalau hasben takde dan tak balik sepang. Pepun, mesti ada buka puasa yg akan dikendalikan oleh pak long/pak uteh/nenek/uwan... masa tuyg best tu.. Dpt kumpul ramai2.. sorang bawak la pape sikit2.. (uish.. aku nak bawak hape? bawak perut je la nmpk gayanye.. heheheh) Pastu makn ramai2. Plg best ngusik budak2 yg tak puasa.. hehe.. kena duduk jauh2 masa org lain buka. Syoknye. :)

Hisk.. apola.. cerita bulna puasa kisah makan2 je. Hampeh.. org perbykkan amal ibadah. Hahaha... Ministry thn blom pulak bukak offer utk tadarus.. Buleh la join. Drpd tdo je masa lunch, gi tadarus elok gak. Sejuk tinge baby dgr ayat2 Quran.

Wokey... tu je la. Bosan plak arini. Rasa nak minum air laici.. or air peach... letak ais bebyk. Ermm.. org kata kalau makan ais masa ngandung nnt baby besar, betul ke? Makan ais je ke or kalau minum air berais pun jadik gak? Ada komen?

Second try

Hmm.. harini try puasa untuk kali yang kedua.. Puasa ganti.. Heheh... alhamdulillah, so far so good. Takdela kena sakit kepala macam last time. InsyaAllah, boleh la ganti puasa secara berpakej. Hahaha... 6 days to go, insyaAllah!~

Di kala berpuasa nih, di masa-masa blood sugar agak rendah, mula la teringat foods yang manis2... nyam nyam. Hehe.. teringat haritu tgk nigella lawson's forever summer kot kat travel n living, dia buat elvis style peanut butter n banana sandwich - fried. Gila gemuk tak hengat.. tapi cam sedap je.. nak plak kalau serve ngan satu scoop vanilla ice cream, tambah plak ngan hershey's choc sauce. Huh.. sinful ecstacy.... Waaaargghh... teruk betul! Baru puasa satu hari. Muahahaha...

Semalam berjaya jugak menyeret diri sendiri ke MV utk carik maternity clothing. Cheh.. rupanya jusco tgh renovation. Nyesal gak pegi.. byk baju kena simpan. Tp dapat jugak la inner wear sikit ngan top satu kat modern mum. Hehe. Huhuh.. berlobang wallet. :p Tp takpe.. top tu comel.. Heh.. sapa lagi nak puji. :p Dah siap mengabeskan duit, singgah plak kat mothercare... Comelnya tgk socks dia jual multi colored ada dlm 4 pairs kot in one pack. Alerrr... kiutnye... Pas geram2 tgk baju kiut2 kat situ (tp takmo beli lagi.. tunggu la nnt bila dah rasa dia gerak2) pegi la makan sensorang kat food court. Hmm.. tak best tol makan sensorang walaupun tmpt tu ramai org. Tadek sapa nk tlg tgkkan barang2 while nak pergi beli food/air. Lain kali kalau g kuar sensorang, nak makan kat tempat yg ada waiter/waitresses je yg boleh amek order n hantarkan makanan n bill skali. Hehehe... :p

Cukupla tu.. posting tadek isi... Balik kang nak masak nasik.. Lauk beli je. Hehe.. Bila la nak start masak nih? :p Start small.. memula masak air.. pastu masak nasik.. nnt lama-lama masak la lauk plak.. Hahahha..

Makan makan

Last night hubby n i went out for dinner at cafe Uno taipan with his friend, zuri n wife and their little daughter. The last time we saw the baby was like 4 mths ago, and now the baby looked totally different. The wife, sue, has regained her pre-pregnancy proportions.. hmm.. jeles nih! Hehee

We had a sumptious pasta dinner while playing around with little alisya. Sekarang ni everytime orang bawak baby, mesti nak pegang, konon2 ikut petua org lama la nih.... kalau baby tu suka kita, baby yang kat dalam will be of the oppsoite sex. Hmm.. problem is, so far i've held cute baby boys and girls, and they seem ok to hang around with me.. Takdel yang macam bila pegang je terus menangis tak nak ke hapa. Ok je la pulak.. Even babies whose moms said tak nak kat orang sangat. Hmm.. confused gak... Could there be 2 babies instead of one in my uterus? Hahahaaa.... takdela.. selalu scan mmg nampak satu je. :p

This weekend, tak boleh tidak kena paksa gak beli maternity clothing. Masalahnya, tak tau nak carik kat mana... Huhuhu. I want to find maternity dresses... pegi kedai biasa-biasa, rasa cam tak boleh nak bayang je me wearing those type of maternity dresses.. pegi modern mum plak, kain sume singkat2.. Sudahnya, still have to opt for 2-piece options. Hmmm... nak tempah buat dress lepas raya ler... :p Mana nak carik dress mengandung yang presentable nihhh???? Any ideas?

Oklah.. posting sementara mengantuk ni sebenarnya. Japgi ada jamuan perpisahan sikit utk officers yang dah berpindah dan akan berpindah. Huhu.. makan lagik gue.. Tadi pagi dah la makan banyak. Malatop perut! :p

Kiutnye baby!!!

Baru balik melawat2 fp n blog kDilla n fp kSalmi.. Waw... comey2 nye baby masing2. Best tengok. Read kDilla's posting abt her experience in water birth. Hmm.. interesting. Wonder if that option ada kat mesia. Tp cam cuak pun ada gak sikit2...

Tapi to compare my worries with hubby's abt the birth part, i'll say hubby lagi risau gila2.. Boleh faham la jugak, because it involves 2 lives yang dia sayang sangat2 kan (hehe..mcm statement perasan plak sikit2). Anyways... well, aku pun risau gak, tapi tak risau ssgt2 maybe sbb benda yang tak pernah lalu lagi kan, so tak terfikir macam mana nak hadap... lagipun my main worry is actually the current health of the baby. Sbbnya, the baby is still too small for me to feel its' movements so i don't know if the baby is ok or not. The only way to find out masa pegi checkup la... Pastu everyday worry takut2 kalau ada blood masa pass urine. Risau woo. So the everyday worry makes me less worried about the birth itself. Bagus gak. Kalau tak sesak gak otak kalau dok worry about giving birth tiap2 hari kan?

Hukhuk... apa kabar la baby ku di dalam perut ni...

Huhu.. lama gak tak posting. Selalu at a loss for words to post la... plus cuti seminggu. Heheh.. bz bermalas-malasan kat umah n jaga hubby yang tak sehat sbb sakit perut... termakan asam keping dalam lauk. cian dia. Perut over sensitip. isk...iskk...

Fourth Antenatal Visit

Last wekk amek cuti panjang, after planning for such leave since june... Tapi, tak dapat ke mana-mana pun, sbb antenatal checkup was scheduled on wednesday, tgh2 minggu. Pagi checkup biasanya kuar umah kol 8.30 utk smpi di hosp at around 9.00.. but that particular morning, 7.30 dah kuar sbb nak htr hubby dulu gi checkup kat ER. One whole night dia tak tdo menahan sakit perut. Org ajak gi klinik mlm tu gak dia takmo.. iskk.. degil gak kekadang. Anyways, pagi tu teman dia gi ER dulu, kena injection, he got a bit better, baru gi klinik dr Nora utk antenatal aptmt.

By 10 am dah masuk dr's room. I asked abt a few stuffs, my concerns on my swelling fingers and occasional headaches. Takut2 disebabkan b.p tinggi. Tapi bila check bp, rupanya rendah sket dari normal. Hmm.. pelik gak. Pastu, tanya dr pasal perut.. haha.. tak puas hati punya pasal sbb aku rasa perut aku besar kat tempat lain dari tempat rahim aku. Heheh.. kena sedusyum ngan dr.. dia ckp.. "..that's the mommy. There's more of mommy than the baby, i'll show you where the baby is.." pastu dia suh aku baring aa cam biasa. Ingat nak scan ke hape.. tak pun... dia rasa perut, start dari bawah breast bone, dia tekan and ckp "this is mommy" Dia tekan bawah sikit, dlm 3 inch dr point pertama n ckp lagi "this is mommy" next, turun lagi, still it was mommy, pastu bila dah smpi at a point dlm 2 jari dari bawah pusat baru la dia kata "i can feel some resistance here, so that is the baby." Hahaha.... Bengong. Hubby kat luar examination room pun dah tersengih2. Hampeh.
So dr kata, perut aku yang besar kat salah tempat tu mungkin sbb fat deposits, or gas or even faeces. Hehe.. mmg ler aku dah constipated for a few days.. patutla kembung lain macam. :p

No further scannings whatsoever, dia ckp next mth baru scan.. probably to tgk if the baby is a girl or a boy la kot. Hehe.. tak sabarnye!

PS: miss niece nayara. Huhu... sangat comel.. nnt la post pic dia kalau ada.. hehe.

Huhu..tadek idea dah la nak post... Nak kena tgk keje2 tertangguh selama aku tadek. Harini bos dah la sumer takde.. malangnya ptg kang ada meeting. Cheish... hampeh.. baru nak berniat jahat. :p
