Back!!! (with a whopping extra 20lbs demmit!)
Yep.. this new momma's back in action. Heh. Daym i've to lose A LOT of weight. Sigh!~ Padan muka.. masa pregnant makan tak hengat. Lesson learned for next pregnancy(ies).
I'm already back at the office after 2 mths of maternity leave. I had an induced labour back in feb and gave birth to a beautiful baby girl, sarah aiesha on 22 feb 2007, 1133hrs. Heh... lagi setengah jam nak tengah hari... Labour had been normal, and it was not as bad as i thought it would be. I think i went through the phases quite alright... until i was abt 7 cms dilated that is. After that i was like ayam berak kapur... and the final 1 cm was rather excruciating cause i really felt like pushing but advised not to. Sigh!~ And when i was already 10cm dilated and pushed until the baby's head crowns, the nurses asked me to stop coz the dr wasn't there yet. She's on the way from a c-section. Hampeh betul. Anyways, the baby was delivered safely and put onto my tummy where she peed on me. :) Hehe.
The birthing proces might not have been so bad for me but the stitching of the epi was hell. I took the entonox option for pain relief but it doesnt really take the pain away... It makes me high... and believe me... you don't end up laughing even if you're breathing in laughing gas at tht time. :P
After 2 days in hosp, i went back to sepang for confinement. Hmm... Confinement was quite stressful... Not because i'm having post-natal depression... but i guess it's the environment and people. Entahla. Breastfeeding didn't go so well, which added up to my stressfulness. Getting misleading inputs from 'orang tua' regarding the production of milk doesnt help either. Susah gak... even if you're well informed on how the breast milk production cycle works; when everyone around you keeps telling you otherwise, it gets to your head, you know. Sigh!~ I won't let that happen again next time.
Now i'm back at the office. Second day of leaving sarah at home with my mom. It's really difficult to leave her after enjoying the whole 2 mths of being at home with her. Kesian dia... Daddy dah berapa hari outstation next monday br balik... Now mommy plak have tu leave her everyday. Sigh!~ What to do...
Hmmm.... better get back to work. Baru2 masuk kerja ni, kerja pun kurang..Hehe... Whatever it is, I'll need to get all this weight off pronto!! Baju gi kerja pun sendat nihss!!
