Miracle in my tummy chapter 2

2011-10-08T20:06:00.000+08:00

Dear readers,

What a beautiful sat morning, spending it at my parents' house. Legs stretched, baggy pyjamas and typing away

Alhamdulillah, as some of you may know this, i'm expecting and is 8 weeks along. Rewind the day i found out about it, actually i tak period since gave birth until mya 1 year 3 months, then only 2 months i get it, the next month.. Eh miss again?

I buat self test, the 2nd line sgt2 pudar ok. Sbb tak puas hati i go and buy the canggih one siap bgtau berapa weeks. It says i'm 3 weeks along. Sangat happy my first thought is macammana la mya jadi kakak. Dah ready ke dia?

Just now went to KPJ shah alam, for mya's 18 month jab and also to check on the little one. Alhamdulillah, we can see the tiny heart beat beating, so surreal.. the same feeling masa tgk mya dlm ultrasound dulu :')

So far pengalaman mengandung first and second one sgt la berbeza. Masa mya dulu dlm 3,4 weeks dah muntah teruk, but this one no muntah ok not even once ( and i'm not complaining here ) Also i love to cook, boleh kata klau kat rumah je mmg di dapur la i ni memasak. Even hubby i kata u kena mengandung selalu la gini, masak best. Hehe .. Masa mya dulu allergic gila bau tumis, kena menyorok dlm bilik if hubby masak. Perfume n all scents pun nk muntah. Huhu

And so far selera makan pun takde la memilih sgt. I can eat anything i want. But this time i focus on seafood n fishes. A lot of ppl say insyaAllah to get boy. Hehe, klau dpt boy alhamdulillah..dh sepasang.

I still bf mya, as per my gynae its ok but as soon as ada bleeding i should stop immediately because it may kecutkan rahim. The challenge is she's so lasak now, kena becareful with my tummy..

My plan for this pregnancy is to sign up for prenatal yoga class. Tgh carik, the only place i can find is kinrara puchong. And also 'the' massage as per recommended by diah, in the hope that this one can go through normal delivery insyaAllah

Ok, fingers off for now. Have a great weekend yall!

As-salam

New playland in Puchong

2011-09-25T11:25:00.001+08:00

Dear readers,

Last weekend out of the blue hubby suruh siap2, ajak we all keluar. Selalunya i will plan most of our outings so, that feels weird. (in a good way :) )

He brought us to IOI mall puchong, first we thought of doing lunch at Seoul Garden, tp change plan. Sbb tau la makan ngan anak kecik, diorg bukan leh dok diam2 lama2, dah la buffet and hubby's fav. Confirm nak Mengketedarah lama2. So we go playland first biar mya penat dulu

The place is reka zone located at courtyard new wing. Newly open and quite spacious. Make sure bring your own socks otherwise you can buy it at the counter.

Before entering all of us kena pakai sanitizer on our hands first, the staff help us with that.

Mya seronok habis kat dalam tu. There is couple of segments built for certain age range.

First she is interested in the bouncy ball pool.

And then she saw this truck, tak nak kasi orang lain naik ok.

The unique thing about this playland they have this machine, i dont know what its call but it will shoot the soft small balls in the air ,but first you have to place the balls inside it so they suck it all. klau byk2 mcm popcorn gitu. Seronok!

The staffs are friendly and helpful too, and its all child proof, takdela risau terhantuk ke apa. Just need to becareful with the bigger kids, diorg ni main langgar je

After couple of hours, we left the place, tactic nya nenenkan mya sbb dia dah penat. True enough, tak sampai lima minit tido.

Apagalas, letak dia dlm stroller and both of us enjoy the korean buffet. Thanks anak sebab kasi can mummy daddy makan puas2. Haha

Trip to sabah- day 3

2011-09-20T21:43:00.001+08:00

Day 3 and final day

Pagi2 lagi dah Gerak gi Lok Kawi wildlife park. Rated top 5 must go place in KK by trip advisor. About 30mins drive from our hotel

Punyalah awal smpai, tak bukak lagi pun haa

But the place is quite huge, clean and well maintain, i guess its new.

Berpandukan map given, we plan our journey
Starts with this guy

Elephants are among my daughter's fav animal, since we brought her to kuala gandah pahang few months back, she touched the elephant,ride on its back. Eversince, klau nmpk on books or tv, excited.

Daddy lets go see the tiger.. Aummm

Orangutan- one thing funny/gross is, i saw this orangutan membuang dan sisa2 buangan nya jatuh dlm air ni. Dgn pantas ada ikan2 berebut makan. So euwww.. Pastu orangutan ni sibuk nk tampar ikan tu.

Can you do this human?

Kuda padi- jinak.. Mya siap dpt pat

Overall i rate this place 3.5 out of 5 stars. Sbb tak dpt tgk animal show. Huhu

After lok kawi we all singgah pasar filipina. Seperti biasa, untuk shopping ole2. Sangat stuffy reminded me of pasar yg kat terengganu tu, but this one smaller. Oklah byk hasil dpt dirembat.

Time ni mmg dah penat gila. On the way balik dlm flight sempat tido kejap je, sampai rumah baru dpt rehat puas2.

Trip ni walaupun pack dan penat,tp puas hati sbb our itinerary semua success. Next time we plan to cover sandakan n tawau sana.

We'll be back!

Trip to sabah day 2

2011-09-11T08:00:00.000+08:00

Sambungan previous post:

Day 2 diperuntukkan untuk island hopping. We choose only 2 islands this time, reason is tak nak mya penat n cranky, biasalah travel with toddler, she is the priority.

Setelah ditimbal balik, out of the many islands, we choose manukan dan mamutik. Manukan sbb pantainya pjg, pulaunya besar, so selesa utk si kecil and nak beraktiviti pantai. Mamutik sbb the corals are beautiful.

Pelan pulau

So pagi2, after breakfast at hotel we shoot to jesselton point, the jetty to go to all this islands. From our hotel is 20 mins drive.

Ok for those with kids, dont worry because journey to island pakai speed boat yg sederhana besar,selesa n both these islands about 15-20mins ride.

Gambar bikin panas

Ini gambar kat manukan island, the water and beach is clean and gorgeous! Kat jetty boleh nmpk ikan2 berenang, dan boleh buat fish spa pasal ikannya jinak.

During the boat ride, my baby sgt behave agaknya pasal first time, she just observe and take in everything. But i need to hold her tight la for safety reasons. All the stuff daddy kena be in charge, i only monitor anak. Phew hehe.

This is arrival at jesselton point. Quite big and comfy place

Budak baru bgn tido terus menggayakan life jacket mini size camni

Fish spa yang diperkatakan td

And yes both of us snorkeled! Who said bawak kids takleh snorkel? Tapi kena take turns la.. Also we brought our own snorkel gear, hygiene purpose.hehe

Coral wise manukan takdelah wow sangat, nak gi tpt yg cantik kena swim at the other side of the island, kitorg malas..so go the nearest one.

Gambar hiasan saja.bukan penulis. Hehe

Crowd pun takde la ramai, we got our own spot to splash..Mya seronok sgt main air. And pasir pantai.. Oh at the hotel dah siap2 lumur SPF, syukur dia tak sunburn. Us too :) in between, susu time and snack time, dun forget to pack in light snacks, cuz kids tend to be hungry after a swim.

My beach baby- mom, tak nak pakai pelampung leh tak?

After couple of hours, we move on to mamutik. On the boat ride princess dah ngantuk.tepuk2 je dia dah terlena. Sampai je mamutik, kat pondok tu baring kan dia, lena sungguh tido tak kisah dah beralaskan pelampung je

Oh my gosh, mamutik's coral is so beautiful! Dari pantai tu just few meters swim terus jumpa coral. And the best thing is air cetek, siap boleh pegang coral. So colourful and variety of corals, i am lost in words, lost in time pun ye gak tak sure how long i was in the water.

First time in my snorkeling experience jumpa binatang tajam2 bulat, x tau nama apa. Itu jelah yg scariest sea creature i encounter. Dia x kacau org just takut terpijak cuz pakcik kat pondok kata boleh paralyze klau terpijak. Uish dah la byk..

Anyway gambar x byk amik rugilah pulak takde camera waterproof.

After that we went back to the hotel dan berehat and bersihkan diri.

We had a dinner date with non other than our blogger friend sha pattinson. By the way she is so sweet, before arrival KK she already list out in email all the places to go, tips, tpt makan best. Wah, teruja tau mak. That night she brought us to her fav spot for ikan bakar. Tp i lupa pulak nama restoren tu. Huhu

The food yg boleh bikin air liur meleleh

Ikan bakar raw

Ini telur je, tp sedap ya amat

Udang terbaekk!

Tapi malangnya we all tak boleh nak enjoy food sgt sbb princess cranky gila.reason is kat situ 3G coverage low, so nak tgk fav kartun dia pororo tak dpt. Meraunglah smpai 2 kedai sebelah dgr. Merajuk abis.. Smpai tersedu2..Lesson learnt: download siap2 video, jgn harap youtube je.

In the end terpaksa tapau je all the food. But thanks sha! U mmg best!

Malam tu sempat ronda2 city KK. Tapi tak lama, sbb si kecik nk tido.

So that conclude our day 2.. Next up is day 3 :)

Trip to sabah- day uno

2011-08-17T15:51:00.001+08:00

Dear readers,

Entri yang dah season, but i promise to post this up here. So here goes.

Last June, we took 5 days off work for a vacation to non other than Kota Kinabalu, land of magnificent...everything! From island to wildlife to seafood. Seriously, tak cukup 3 hari 2 mlm to cover KK saja!

We took AA return flight RM900 for 2 adults and 1 infant. Oklah.. Sbb book lambat.Firefly lg mahal kot.

Alhamdulillah,si kecilku cak tak meragam langsung in the flight. Excited first time naik flight, she slept 3/4 journey. 1/4 sibuk main ngn abang kat blkg. Here's a tip.. For ur own comfort, dun forget to upgrade to priority seat. Beratur depan skali n also dpt seat depan skali with spacious leg room. Pay extra but worth it. ;)

Also, pls request for ur child's seat belt, it will be attach to ur seat belt.

Tuh org lain nye stroller, cik kak kita nampak berminat sekali

'babysitter' paling efisyen sepanjang flight. :p

Okay, she's off to lalaland

Touchdown KK, my fren from uni cik habibah sgt berbaikhati fetch us from airport and send to our hotel. We stayed at novotel in the same building with one borneo mall. Highly recommended! Quite a distance to city..Kena travel by car/taxi to city center but we rent a car.hubby pre book kenari and it was waiting for us at the hotel. I tell you so fuel saving this car, isi rm50 je last for 3 days.including naik turun gunung kinabalu and also pegi island....acah je pegi island naik boat lewww.

Our room

Lepas check in terus shoot ke gunung. Penat2 belakang kira

Jalan nak pi sana quite scary macam cameron highland, skill memandu harus di tahap tertinggi ya puan puan. Mujur juga ada GPS, takde lah sesat mesat.

Kat taman kinabalu, cuaca masa tu sejuk cuz mcm nk hujan

Pemandangan gunung kinabalu tak diselaputi awan. Gorgeous and speechless dibuatnya. It looks so majestic. Tapi of course kami tak naik smpai atas, tp pasti satu hari nanti. Tunggu kami puncak gunung kinabalu!

Mlm tu after mandi rehat bersihkan diri, terus pergi dinner di Gayang seafood direkomen cik habibah. Mmg acara ditunggu2!

Beeps yg baru balik from euro trip beliau.thanks for being such a good host! We owe u!

Selepas: ikan kerapu masak sweet sour. Terbaik n fresh!

30 minit sebelum

Udang masak cili hancur .. Double yumm

Siput tarik namanya ni

Total 3 org mkn dlm 6 jenis masakan dlm rm150.... Crazy kan?? Dah la sedap!

Next day pengembaraan pulau2

2011-08-17T05:17:00.001+08:00

Dear readers,

I'm in the mood for a makeover! But not too soon..after raya perhaps. Going to paint my daughter's room and buy some wall sticker deco. Last weekend dah beli wardrobe baru. Oh ya, kalau nak jual 2nd hand katil single bed solid wood ada org nak beli kah? Murah saja..rm150 include tilam and transportation. Hehe sempat promo.

Anyway here are some awesome pictures of kids' bedroom. I totally love them!

This is color combo of my choice: pink,grey and white. So romantic n girlish! See how brilliant they play with space here. This is hot!

I totally dig the storage area under the bed.again, its good to know how they save space

Simple and neat combination. Tapi katil kat bawah tu safety hazard plis..

Same concept, tastefully done!

Are you excited like me after seeing this photos? Tak sabar nak start project baby room!

Petua Mendapatkan Anak Lelaki Atau Perempuan (Part 2)

2011-08-12T08:04:00.003+08:00

Petua untuk dapat anak lelaki:

Sebelum & Selepas:

1. Berdoa sebelum bersama dgn niat usaha utk dapat anak lelaki

2. Bersama suami pada waktu tidak subur isteri (antara hari dua puluh satu hingga hari kedua puluh lapan /hari sebelum period dr kiraan hari pertama selepas waktu subur) Kenapa dlm waktu tidak subur isteri sahaja? Sbb suami ni aktif 24 jam, so sperma dia sentiasa banyak dan gen X/Y yg perlu dikumpulkan perlu lebih sedikit pada waktu ini. Hanya dalam waktu tidak subur ini saja, hormonsuami perlu lebih aktif dr isteri. Agak susah nak dapatkan bayi lelaki tapi depends gak.. (kebanyakan pasangan baru berkahwin selalu dapat anak perempuan sbb first time bagi si isteri melalui ‘gitu-gitu’ so excited terlebih sikit… tapi kalau merancang, memang mudah dapat bayi lelaki)

3. Suami melepaskan/merembeskan 100% air maninya di dalam rahim isteri dan sedalam mungkin(Tujuan : mengizinkan kesemua sperma disalurkan kedalam rahim isteri supaya gen XX lebih banyak dr XY; Suami membawa XY, isteri membawa gen X – so penentu jantina bayi adalah dr sperma suami)

4. Selepas bersama, amalkan tidur beralih ke kanan (sekiranya membelakangkan suami, minta izin terlebih dahulu takpun cuba ubah tempat tidur supaya tidak membelakangi suami tapi masih dlm keadaan beralih ke kanan)

5. Berdoa.

Amalan Pemakanan 1-4 bulan kandungan (dlm proses pembentukan janin):

1. Banyakkan makan laut (seafood) serta daging2. Banyakkan makan yg berasid3. Amalan minuman kurang manis

Amalan Perbuatan 1-9 bulan kandungan :

1. Mengamalkan bacaan surah Yusuf dan Maryam (surah Yusuf utk kuatkan badan dan bayi, lebihkan mengamalkan surah Maryam utk pembentukan minda bayi) * lebihkan/kekerapan kepada surah Yusuf

2. Mengurut kandungan/perut dan bercakap dgn bayi dalam kandungan dgn memanggilnya dgn nama“Muhammad” atau “Ahmad”/”Amin”

3. Berdoa selepas solat (biasalah kan….)

Fizikal ibu yg mengandungkan bayi lelaki – perutnya membesar atau meruncing ke hadapan.
Selamat mendapatkan baby pilihan anda! Kita hanya merancang dan berikhtiar, tapi Allah SWT yang tentukan…

Tips memilih waktu untuk dapat anak lelaki dan perempuan

Tips yang telah dijalankan secara kajian sains mengikut doktor2 yang pakar dalam bidang biologi. Mungkin ramai para ibubapa terutama yang dapat berderet anak yang sama jantina atau kepada mereka yang tengah merancang untuk mendapatkan cahayamata. Sampai ada suami isteri yang telah mencuba macam2 kaedah dan petua untuk diamalkan.

Menurut doktor yang pakar dalam bab2 ni… ini adalah fakta atau tips untuk mendapatkan anak lelaki atau perempuan. Katanya, orang lelaki menghasilkan 2 jenis sperms, kromosom X (female) kromosom Y (male).Kromosom Y (male) ni lebih kecik, lebih lemah tetapi lebih laju dari saudara dia kromosom X (female) yang lebih besar, lebih kuat dan tetapi slow.

Tips ini hanya untuk kaum wanita yang mempunyai kitaran period yang tetap, kalau berubah-ubah tu mungkin susah nak apply. OK tengok calender di bawah ni. Mungkin faham kot.
OK katakan period isteri tu bermula pada 7hb setiap bulan, dan biasanya haid akan stop selepas 7-8 hari, kebiasaanya lah. Jadi waktu untuk ‘bersama’ ialah waktu isteri seawal dia abis period kebarangkalian untuk mendapatkan anak perempuan adalah lebih besar kerana di waktu ini ovum isteri hanya menerima kromosom X, iaitu perempuan.

OK selepas hari yang ke 15, masuk hari yang ke 16 waktu untuk ‘bersama’ isteri di waktu ini lebih besar kebarangkalian untuk mendapatkan anak lelaki sebab selepas hari ke 16 ovum isteri hanya menerima kromosom Y, iaitu lelaki.

Tips mendapatkan anak lelaki atau perempuan

Salam Ramadhan Mubarak,

Apa khabar semuanya? Harap sihat2 belako dan tak ponteng puasa.

Ni kawe nak share tips cara ampuh nak dapat anak lelaki atau perempuan. Kawe belum bunting lagi. Just nak share, memandangkan sekeliling ambo, ramai betul mama buyungs.

Petua untuk dapat anak perempuan :
1. Berdoa sebelum bersama dgn niat usaha utk dapat bayi perempuan.

2.Bersama suami pada waktu subur isteri (antara hari kesebelas hingga hari kesembilan belas dr kiraan hari pertama datangnya haid) Kenapa dlm waktu subur isteri sahaja? Sbb suami ni aktif 24 jam, sosperma dia sentiasa banyak dan subur walhal isteri kebiasaannya bergantung pada mood. Hanya dalam waktu subur ni saja, hormon isteri lain macam sikit. That’s why susah nak dapat baby perempuan ni.. tapi majoriti pasangan baru berkahwin, potensi dapat anak perempuan tinggi.

3. Suami melepaskan/merembeskan hanya 50% air maninya di dalam rahim isteri dan bakinya dipangkal rahim (Tujuan : mengizinkan hanya sedikit sahaja sperm kedalam rahim isteri supaya gen XY dpt diseimbangkan;Suami membawa XY, isteri membawa gen X – so penentu jantina bayi adalah dr sperma suami)

4. Selepas bersama, amalkan tidur beralih ke kiri (sekiranya membelakangkan suami, minta izin terlebih dahulu)

5. Berdoa.

Amalan Pemakanan 1-4 bulan kandungan (dlm proses pembentukkan janin):
1. Banyakkan makan sayur, sup dan asam serta beralkali2. Banyakkan makan buah-buahan3. Amalan minuman berkarbonat/gas (jgnlah selalu)

Amalan Perbuatan 1-9 bulan kandungan :
1. Mengamalkan bacaan surah Yusuf dan Maryam (surah Yusuf utk kuatkan badan dan bayi, lebihkan mengamalkan surah maryam utk pembentukan minda bayi * lebihkan/kekerapan kepada surah Maryam
2. Mengurut kandungan/perut dan bercakap dgn bayi dalam kandungan dgn memanggilnya dgn nama “Maryam” atau “Siti Aisyah”
3. Berdoa selepas solat (seperti biasa…)

Fizikal ibu yg mengandungkan bayi perempuan – perutnya meleper atau membulat rata ke kiri dan kanan.

* Tips lain yg boleh dicuba yg masih tersimpan didalam nota ketika pengajian bersama seorang syeikh terkenal di Mesir dan seorang wali Allah wanita yg menjaga maqam wali besar disana ,untuk memudah mendapatkan zuriat antaranya cuba menyelami perasaan anak-anak lain, berdoa dan menyapu ubun mereka, sambil “berniat” setiap kali berjumpa dengan bayi, dan selalu tidak lokek memberi makanan kepada kanak-kanak, bayangkan rupa bayi setiap kali sebelum tidur

Sebagai tanda fidyah untuk kita berbuat amal, segalanya adalah diatas niat dan ilham yang terpanggil).IsyaaAllah mudahan rezeki kita untuk dapat anak, dimakhbulkan.

My beach baby at Kuantan

2011-07-13T00:46:00.001+08:00

Dear readers,

Little that i imagine my girl is such a fan of the ocean. This is the 2nd time she went to the beach. First time kat PD, tp masa tu kecik lg.

I guess masa kat kuantan tu air surut and there was not much waves going on she kinda enjoyed the walk at the beach and playing in the water.

Arriving at pantai gelora, immediately she wanted to explore.

Dad had to work extra hard to contain this little girl

Okay, dah tukar uniform dgn pantas nya

Oh, here is uncle acad, by the time we went back baru mya nak warm up hehe

And when things get bored in the car, this is what happened

Kat selut ni suka betul dia, excited habis

By the time nak balik, wah kemain marah lg dia tak nak balik. Haha

Menangis kuat2 smpai merah2 muka.

Ok mummy promise u we go next time k. And after kuantan we went to 2 islands and 1 more beach..mmg habis hati princess ni

She is turning 15 months old in a few days. Now dah stage nak cakap, she understands our daily talk but converse in her own language. Yang penting sebutan mummy dah betul dan tepat. Makes me wants to kiss her over and over tiap kali dia cakap mummy.haha over la mummy ni

It could make a big difference to the cost of your daily meal.

2011-06-22T12:02:00.001+08:00

Dear readers,

Some reading material, just to share :)

It could make a big difference to the cost of your daily meal.

AS I scanned through the menu of the noodle house in a popular mall last weekend, I noticed wryly that the price of drinks these days is about half that of the food. If your bowl of mee costs RM7, a glass of sugared water flavoured with whatever catches your fancy is about half of that.

As it is usual these days, my mind is on health and my eye on the ever-expanding waistline. I wanted water – plain ice water. Nowadays hardly anybody in these slightly upmarket outlets serves you plain water right from the tap anymore, with or without ice.

If you wanted water, you paid for mineral water or some other water out of a bottle from prices ranging anywhere from RM2 for a local brand to RM8 or more for those swanky ones with foreign names.

Therefore, instead of paying RM2 for a bottle of water, many Malaysians with their misplaced sense of value choose instead to pay about half more and obtain a “real drink”, opting for sugared water or one of those brands which have a calorific value of less than one but a high caffeine content and a potentially harmful artificial (unnatural?) sweetener.

But they would have been much better off with some plain tap water, perhaps filtered. Despite all the bad publicity over Malaysian water, I still ask for plain tap water with ice in it wherever I can get it. But the number of places where I can get it is shrinking fast.

There is a nascent epidemic here of profiteering that threatens to raise our food and beverage prices considerably very quickly. It will require quick and decisive action by the Domestic Trade, Coopera-tives and Consumerism Ministry to use our newly implemented Price Control and Anti-Profiteering Act 2010 to nip this blooming menace in the bud.

On that weekend, as my eyes passed over the items in the menu, I saw this term – “purified water”. Now that’s a new one. The price was RM1.50.
I thought of arguing with and cajoling the foreign waiters (my thoughts turned to amnesty, but that’s a subject for another day) who manned the place for a plain glass of ice water, but they were talking loudly in a language I did not understand or recognise.

Firmly suppressing my welling desire to complain and lament, I acquiesced and asked for “purified water”, although there was no mention anywhere in the menu of how the water was purified.

What I got was a glass of water with ice cubes in it and a straw – no plastic bottle. It tasted like any other water that I have drunk anywhere. But that water did get me to think about things that I would not otherwise have thought about.

In Selangor and Kuala Lumpur, the upper end of the price of water for commercial use is RM2.28 per cubic metre. One cubic metre is 1,000,000 millilitres and a glass contains at most 300ml of water. That works out to 0.00066 sen a glass of water. The cost of ice and filtration should be no more than 1 sen per glass on a bulk basis.

That would mean that the glass of purified water that I had for RM1.50 would have cost just 1 sen maximum, giving the retailer a profit margin of a huge 14,900% – 150 times the cost of what it took to produce. If that is not profiteering, what is?

Now that we have established profiteering, let us figure how much more you will have to pay for your daily meal if you had to pay RM1.50 for purified water or upgrade to another less healthy drink for two times the price.

If you had your usual nasi campor at your favourite mamak outlet for lunch you probably paid about RM5 if you were not a big eater. He most likely threw in the water for free.
But imagine that he got smart and charged RM1.50 for “purified water”. That would take your bill up to RM6.50, an increase of 30%.

If paying RM1.50 for plain water affected your sensibilities and you decided to pay a little extra for a “real drink”, usually the sugared variety, you not only got more unhealthy, you paid a hefty 60% more for your meal, which cost RM8 instead of RM5 previously.

Believe me, this is an epidemic – it’s spreading like wildfire. Later, on that same weekend afternoon, I went to see a CEO at a posh hotel in town. I had coffee and asked for a glass of ice water, too.

But it was not the usual ice water they brought but bottled water. Because I did not pay for the bill I did not have a chance to look at the price of the bottled water, but I will bet my bottom ringgit that it was at least RM5. Previously hotels did not charge for water – they brought the branded water in only when you asked for it.

My favourite Italian restaurant where I typically had a bottle of wine with my meals started charging for water, too – they stopped serving tap water. It’s no longer my favourite restaurant and I have not been to it since.

Walk into most of the big fast food restaurants and it’s the same. You have to fork out at least RM2 for a plastic bottle of water. Absolutely no tap water, even if you volunteered to step around the counter and serve it to yourself.

In England, it is illegal for restaurants not to serve tap water. It’s the same in the US, at least in some states. We have to act before it is too late, before all eating outlets in Malaysia charge too much for cheap water. After all, profiteering proliferates quickly.

We now have comprehensive anti-profiteering laws after the implementation of the relevant legislation from April 1 this year. It empowers the Domestic Trade minister to prescribe the mechanism to determine a reasonable profit.

Since the cost of good drinking water is likely to be less than a sen a glass, the ministry should use its powers under the anti-profiteering act to require all restaurants and eateries to provide free drinking water – that is, filtered water from the tap.

Adding ice or increasing the temperature of the water to that of air suam levels should incur a charge of no more than 5 sen a glass, which should be enough to recover costs and make some profit, too.

The ministry should use this opportunity as a demonstration of its intention to control profiteering by throwing the full weight of the law against miscreants. First offenders face a fine of RM100,000 or three years’ jail or both – that should be sufficient deterrent, but only if there is enforcement.

Not only will the moves significantly reduce the cost of eating out for consumers, it will also promote healthier consumption patterns.

More people will opt for healthy, filtered, and naturally mineralised tap water instead of more expensive alternatives or unhealthy highly sweetened drinks or highly caffeinated, low calorie drinks with harmful additives.

It’s not often you get a chance to kill two birds with one stone so cheaply.
> Managing editor P. Gunasegaram is reminded of a line from Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s The Rime of the Ancient Mariner: Water, water everywhere, Nor any drop to drink.

2011-04-22T11:57:00.000+08:00

Dear readers,

13 hb April lepas genaplah setahun umur anakanda sulong kami. Alhamdulillah syukur Ya Allah kerana mengurniakan kami seorang anak yang sihat, sempurna sifat yang menjadi penyeri rumahtangga kami.

Mya masa berumur 2 bulan, tembam betul dia masa ni. hehe

Gambar terbaru semasa parti harijadi Mya weekend lalu

Seronok sgt tgk anak yg membesar depan mata, yang best semua perkembangan dia, dia nak tunjuk kat I dulu. First time meniarap, first time merangkak, first time diri, first time jalan. Excited tau!

Di Usia 1 thn ni Mya nye karenah:

*Suka sgt ajuk apa yang mummy selalu buat contoh kalau jatuhkan barang dia akan ckp "oh-owww" , kalau tgh makan "nyam nyam", kalau sampai kat lift kan ada gema, nnt dia jerit "Aaaaa" sbb nk dengar echo.

*Menari mmg favourite lagi2 lagu kat PHDC, lagu nobody nobody pun fav.

*Ratu jerit kat day care. kalau tak dapat apa dia nak, gegar la day care tu, kata teacher dia

*Plg suka main kejar2 with mummy ngn daddy. tak sah sehari kalau tak main,adoi penat mak, nak.

*dah faham simple instruction like " Give mummy the ball, please, thank you" tp tak tau nape kalau "no" tu mcm tak paham2. lg sebut no lagi dia nak buat.. haiiii laa

*kalau sebut "busuk" she will crinkle her nose, and do that "hmpphh" sound. hehe

*laci2 n kabinet2 kat dapur semua dah ada child lock. ahahhaa now dah tak leh buat busy lagi. corners kat meja pun dah letak child safety. tp itu la yg dia nak cabut kan.

Anak mummy yang nakal dan manja. You'll always be my little girl .. forever. No doubt about that. I love you so much more than words can describe. Moga jadi anak yang solehah dan mendengar kata ye sayang muahhh <3

Stem Cell : Info Sharing

2011-04-11T16:38:00.006+08:00

Hey readers,

Just want to share about this info, sebetulnya I dont have too much exposure about stem cell but since my sis started to involve in this business, celik jugak mata ku.

Anyway, we found a blog that go in depth about stem cell. Izin kan saya share the information. Here is the link of the blog

For second baby Insya-Allah, i will invest on this. For those interested you can contact my sis Amy at her blog . Or maybe can contact me to get her :)

Stem Cell By khadeejah hasmad

Mase pregnant, we used to terjumpe dgn byk brochure stem cell company. Briefly tahu lah ape kepentingan stem cell, tp tak de lah rase cam ‘ohhhh nk kena subscribe ni!’. But tetibe satu hari mase cek – up bulanan, ternampak brochure yg lain dari yg lain. Hehe. Brochure tu nmpk lebih childish, babyish, more frenly. And I picked up the brochure sbb nampak menarik. Kuasa brochure design~~

Tak sangka lak agent company tu tgh dok borak ngan nurse2 berdekatan. Trus agent tu asked me if I’d like to listen for her explanation ttg the company. Tak perlu sucscribe kalau tak mahu, just listen je dia nk citer apa. Hehe. Pandai agent ni. And at last we agreed to subscribe with the company. We didn’t do much study masa tu, agent tu sgt pandai convince Hohoho.

Mase tu company tu tgh on promotion, bygkan, we only need to pay RM 3K++ (company lain kna byr 5k++ ok~) and dpt stroller combi pulak as free gift! Plus, takyah bayar annual fee sampai umur Muhammad 21 tahun! Huhu, sape tak kelabu mate kan Recently, sorang junior asked me about stem cell company. Errkk, I kenot advise much sebab kitorg pun macam main amek je mane berkenan. But her query led me to study about what ekceli is stem cell, and what differentiate one company to another. I would love to share with others about my findings, sebab stem cell ni rupanya sangat teramat berharga. And we need to be extra careful when it comes to choosing which company yg akan kite subscribe utk simpan stem cell baby kite.

Stem cell

Stem cell tu ape? If kite bace buku ttg perkembangan bayi dalam perut, kite akan faham yg bayi ni memule terbentuk bile sperma bertemu ovum, dan 1 cell akn terbentuk – ini adalah stem cell! which then berkembang jadi 2 3 4 cell. Kemudian cell2 ni berkembang jd jantung, jd telinga, jd mata, jd mulut, jd organ2 lain dlm tubuh. Cell2 ni juge berkembang utk menjadi darah dalam badan baby, dan juge sistem imunisasi. Hanya dgn 1 cell penting ni, seluruh tubuh bayi yg sempurna terbentuk. Subhanallah, Allah itu sungguh berkuasa! Tp once dh jd mata, cell tu nama cell mata lah. Stem cell juge dikenali sbg “master cell” atau sel induk, dalam bidang perubatan stem cell di gunakan utk produce more blood bg pesakit anemia atau leukemia, menyembuhkan cancer, and so much more!

Basically ada 3 cara utk kita dapat kan stem cell; extraction dari: * Tulang sumsum – perlu melalui pembedahan, dan x gerenti blh dpt byk stem cell yg hidup.

*Darah periferi/ periphereal blood – tak dapat byk stem cell se banyak daripada tulang sumsum, dan juga stem cell dari darah periferi tak se kuat stem cell dari tulang sumsum

* Darah tali pusat/ cord blood – x perlu lalui pembedahan utk mendapatkan stem cell, cara yg sgt mudah dan tak berbahaya. stem cell yg plg reliable antara 3 stem cell.

Cord blood adelah darah yg di ambil dari tali pusat baby immediately after baby is born. Peluang utk collect stem cell dari cord blood hanya ada sekali sahaja – immediately after we safely deliver our baby, slagi pulses pd cord tu masih ada – which means masa utk ambil adalah sangat2 singkat. Lepas tu dah takde chance nk collect stem cell from cord blood. Most private hospital, they just clean up the blood macam darah2 lain. Govt hospital pulak collect the blood without acknowledgement from the parents, and store it dlm bank darah negara. Cord blood stem cell is very precious asset we have to keep.

Why stem cell from cord blood?

Semua nya kerana if possiblity anak kita, or family members, or our parents who might possibly di jangkiti penyakit leukemia, blood disorder, cancer, autoimmune disease, and we need to find donor utk donate their stem cell if tak mau lalui rawatan kemo or ambil high dose of dangerous steroids. Please click here utk list penyakit yg insya-Allah blh di ubati menggunakan stem cell dari cord blood. We don’t pray for the chronic diasease to come by, but by storing cord blood stem cell boleh lah di katakn seperti ‘sediakan payung sebelum hujan’ for our family’s health. Rawatan menggunakan stem cell dari cord blood adalah lebih effektif, tak de side effect and insya-Allah cepat sembuh, berbanding rawatan lain cam gune kemo – side effect akan dapat second cancer lepas kemo, or rawatan utk autoimmune disease – need to take high dose of steroid which who knows boleh affect body’s organ.

Please click here, a true story which then membuat kan saye rase, syukur saye store cord blood stem cell… Please note that stem cell dari baby kite blh juge di gunakan oleh his siblings, we as his parents, his grandparents or even strangers – given that HLA match receiver is 67% match with our baby.

Comparing stem cell from cord blood, with stem cell from other source Stem cell dari cord blood is younger which means stem cell dari cord blood lebih pandai menyesuaikan diri dalam sistem badan mana2 penerima berbanding stem cell dr tulang sumsum atau darah periferi – perkara ni penting supaya bila transplant berjaya di lakukan, penerima stem cell tak dapat side effect yg pelik2. Stem cell dari cord blood juge lebih immune kepada infections and viruses berbanding stem cell dari tulang sumsum/ darah periferi.

If pesakit nak gune stem cell dari tulang sumsum, pesakit perlu 100% HLA match dgn donor. And if kalau ye pun 100% HLA match dapat, dan transplant berjaya dilakukan, ada possibility pesakit di serang GvHD. Pesakit juge berisiko utk di jangkiti virus semasa transplant di jalan kan. But if pesakit nak gune stem cell dari cord blood, pesakit tak perlu 100% HLA match with the donor, cukup 67% HLA match. Kebarangkalian utk mendapat GvHD adalah kurang if pesakit ambil stem cell dari ahli keluarga sendiri.

HLA adalah human leukocyte antigen. Kite inherit 50% from our mother, 50% lagi from our father. Ia adalah 6 protein dalam sel darah putih dan tisu2 lain dalam badan. GvHD pula adalah graft vs host disease, ia adalah situasi di mana, cell donor serang cell2 dalam badan pesakit setelah transplant berjaya di lakukan. It happens sebab cell donor recognize badan receiver as foreign and can lead to death. Make adalah lebih baik if kite nk gune stem cell utk cure chronic disease, we use our own or our family members’

Cord blood stem cell di katakan hanya berjaya if guna dalam transplant utk kanak2 atau org dewasa yg bersaiz kecil. It is true, but on the positive side, we can grow cord blood stem cell sebelum transplant, atau guna lebih dari satu unit stem cell untuk transplant. Please refer cni utk jumlah stem cell yg diperlukan utk transplant.

Dalam islam pula, hukum storing stem cell for medical purpose adalah harus. Click sini for more info.

Choosing cord blood bank

Currently kat Malaysia ada banyak cord blood bank.

But I only know of these 3. Cell Safe International Group StemLife

CryoCord Sdn Bhd

As customer, adalah amat perlu utk kita siapkan diri dgn sedikit ilmu pengetahuan sebelum jumpe agent yg biasanya akan habis2 an promote company dia. And bear in mind, biasanya cost utk simpan cord blood ni bukan murah, thus, we need to make sure that every cents is worth spending.

Cemane pulak kite nak pilih which cord blood bank is the best? Here are the checklists we need to go through.

1. Accreditation and standards.

Parents di sarankan utk memilih company yg mempunyai AABB accreditation. AABB ialah American Association of Blood Banks, they have set satu standard utk perkara berkaitan blood and cord blood. Utk company yg jd member AABB, AABB dh sesiap cek whether company tu ikut standard ke tak before accredit company tu. Analogi mcm kalau kt nk beli brg letrik, nk kna cr cop sirim, br kt convince yg brg tu reliable. Mcm tu juge la cord blood bank n AABB.

AABB

2. Processing

i. Safe, painless, fast Collecting cord blood adalah selamat dan tidak membahayakan bayi atau ibu. Proses collect cord blood juge cepat, dan tak menyakitkan. So far I remember, I don’t feel anything, just trase bile nurse amek my own blood kat lengan, right after Muhammad kluar utk drg buat test nanti. Collecting cord blood after delivery – source

ii. Collecting cord blood Ada 2 cara utk collect cord blood., dgn membiarkan darah drip ke dalam bag, atau dgn mengambil darah menggunakan syringe. Cara mengambil darah menggunakan syringe is better sebab cara ni assure lebih byk volume cord blood dpt di ambil.

iii. Cord blood’s container Cord blood yg di ambil hendaklah di simpan dlm container yg di sediakan oleh company cord blood bank. Container yg meet requirement setakat ni ialah; cryo bags dan cryo vials. But by 2007, AABB require sume company yg accredited with AABB utk gune cryo bags sahaje. Knape AABB suruh gune cryo bags sahaje, dan bukan cryo vials? *AABB concern dgn issue labeling. Vial adelah terlalu kecil, sebesar jari kelingking je, thus tak mudah utk label all the information required on one cryo vial. *Cryo bag juge adalah lebih “tertutup” berbanding cryo vial, hal ini blh mengurangkan possibility utk accidental contamination dan possibility utk mix – up cord blood org lain. *AABB mahu kan container yg simpan cord blood ada segment tubing system. System ni membolehkan cord blood utk di test utk make sure kite ni betul2 pemilik cord blood tu, in case cord blood is needed utk transplant. Click here for AABB further explanation.

Cryo bag – source

Cryo vials – source

Certain company masih menggunakan cryo vials. Biasanya agent suggest vials sebab company tu tak mahu spend more on additional expense utk new cryo- bags system. New cryo – bags system adalah mmg lebih mahal drp cryo vials, and consume more space in freezer. Agent akan cuba convince customer dgn btau that using vials is better sebab kalau nk test cord blood, hanya sikit darah akan di ambil dari vials, dan keseluruhan darah di usik.

iv. Delivering cord blood Semasa dlm proses menghantar cord blood dari hospital ke lab, stem cell need to be kept at room temperature, tak boleh terlalu panas atau terlalu sejuk, or else stem cell akan rosak. Cord blood mestilah diproses within 48 hours of birth, kalau tak, dh x valid utk preservation. v. Storing cord blood Cord blood perlu di simpan dalam freezer, sebab freezing wud help cord blood stays “young” and tak effected/damaged by environment atau viruses. Ada dua cara utk simpan cord blood. Either simpan dlm tank of liquid nitrogen, atau simpan dalam tank of vapor nitrogen. Storing cord blood in vapor nitrogen is better as it prevent cross contamination among cord bloods, and prevent transmission of disease from surface of one container to another. Tank to store cord blood – source 3. Company stability i. Financially stable

Amat penting untuk memilih company yg financially stabil, bear in mind, kite amanahkan company ni utk simpan cord blood stem cell baby kite for at least 21 YEARS! Kalau company tu tak stabil, cene lak dia nk provide all the technology and high – end facility utk ensure yg cord blood stem cell tu viable and safe.

ii. Not public listed Parents juge di nasihati utk tidak subscribe pd company yg public listed. Hehe. Ini bukan sy punye personal opinion ye. Public listed tak semestinya bagus. Kite tak nak lah the stability of our baby’s cord blood bergantung pada naik turun nya stock market. Takut nanti, bila saham jatuh, duit takde, segala necessary things to keep cord blood stem cell pun terjejas, contoh – things mcm letrik utk make sure nitrogen tank tu berfungsi. Dan ada possibility duit yg kite laburkan utk store our baby’s cord blood di salur kan pd tempat lain mcm kpd marketing, or risky research yg these companies hope appeal investors.

4. Scientific Expertise Don’t be excited by nama doctor yg femes kat company tu. Sumtimes company tu just pinjam name doctor tu utk attract customers, but the doctor didn’t bother about the company. Seeloknye before pilih company, study info kat dlm site or info yg agent provide. It helps us to evaluate the real quality of the company. And don’t blindly trust the agent.

5. Customers’ right and price protection Read carefully the contract between you and the company. Please refer here for more detailed questions to asked. We are customers, tanya je apa2 yg kite nk tnye agent. Make sure sume sweet promises adalah di documented. Hehe.

Saving cord blood stem cell is important if parents mahu assurance utk kesihatan anak atau family member in the future. Tapi kalau tiada family member berpenyakit pelik2, kite boleh je donate cord blood stem cell tu. We personally decided utk store Muhammad’s cord blood stem cell sahaja. We don’t plan to save his siblings’. Tp kalau ada duit lebih, maybe blh dipertimbangkan Hehe.

Hopefully my sharing wud help parents out there yg masih berkira2 ttg stem cell company, and masih confuse ttg apa beza one company to the other. Sharing is caring Feel free to browse the sources of all the info in this entry. All the sources are non – profit organizations, unbiased dan takde kaitan with mane2 stem cell company.

My __th Birthday :)

2011-04-06T00:54:00.001+08:00

Dear readers,

Indahnya rasa dapat update blog di kala si kecil sedang tidur. Selalunya update blog jatuh ke ranking bawah sekali selepas uruskan suami dan anak, house chores dan tidur.. that explains the long hiatus :p

Kali ni nak bercerita pasal sambutan hari jadi tuan punya diri tahun ni. Jatuh pada 16 Mac lepas. Sebenarnya planning awal nak amik cuti n relax kat rumah, tapi since that day byk pulak staff yg bercuti, so I sebagai seorang leader yg bertanggung jawab, *cough* datang office dan kerja seperti biasa.

Sebelum tu, malam tu dah dapat 2 keping kad harijadi from Suami dan anak. Ye, si kecik yang tak tau apa2 tu pun contribute, siap ada hand print lagi tau.. pakai lip gloss mommy. T__T keje daddy nye la ni. hahah.. It was such a sweet gesture! Definitely will keep these cards to show Mya when she's older. :)

Then the next morning, another surprise.. after took my bath and siap2, tgk2 my husband sediakan breakfast scramble egg with bread. Tak pernah2 nya buat before this. I'm speechless! love u sayang! muah!

And then off to work as usual.. hantar baby ke daycare and hubby drop me at the office. For the last few years, usually my department will throw a surprise birthday party for me. So i kinda expect it is coming. Around 4 like that I pun crash the party even before they were ready. haha.. padan muka.

Tiba2, out of nowhere ada sorg mamat ni tolak stroller masuk office. Blur kejap, macam ku kenal stroller ni. "EH... NAPER ANAK N SUAMI AKU KAT SINI?" Rupanya it was his idea all along! He secretly took my colleague's phone number from my contact list and set up this surprise party. He bought the cake and food and then went to pick up Mya at daycare before coming over. Seriously i was SURPRISED! and kecoh kejap ofis ada budak kenit ni roaming around.

The mastermind with his side kick caught mommy off guard!

Ce ce,, tak tau naper muka serius potong kek. tp mmg susah woo nk potong choc indulgance tu.

Mya socializing with my colleagues :)

Err,, excuse my behind :p

Then afterwards we go dinner makan steak at damansara. It was a tiring day but i love every minute of it. Esoknya my friends sume tak abis2 puji sapet. Romantik la ur husband.. So sweet laaa.. hehe HE IS! Walau pun not everyday but setahun sekali i feel so special.. <3

So i turned 18 with 10 years of experience this year :) before i hit the big 3-0 i wish to add another baby in the family, insyaAllah. But all in all, i'm so thankful to Allah for giving me such a blissful life with a loving husband, daughter, family n friends all by my side. I dont want to trade them for the world!

xxoo

Mya at 11 month

2011-03-12T09:33:00.004+08:00

Dear readers,

In the wake of the horrifying tragedy that struck Japan yesterday, let us just pray for those who got affected. i'm so glad my dear friends Dena n Sasao, Fesya, Murni and her little family and Ida n hubby were all safe and sound. You were all in my thoughts!

Anyway, just some update about my little girl. She's turning 11 month tomorrow! 1 month shy from her 1 year old birthday.. :)

* Alhamdulillah, 2 minggu lepas dia dah start jalan. Happy sungguh dapat kaki. Tidor pun lambat selalu kul 11 ke atas baru nak tido. Kalau tak sibuk je makcik ni ke hulu ke hilir. Penat la omak nya

*Suka menari goyang2 badan. Especially if nyanyi lagu twinkle twinkle little star.Dia nyanyi sekali tp bahasa dia la. "Aaaaa Aaaa " hehe And also kalau tgk tv ada lagu apa2 sure dia start goyang2.

*Dah pandai tarik laci2 kat dapur T__T. Kena beli child proof lock or something, takut terapit!

*Dah tak nangis bila hantar kat daycare. Dia rapat ngan sorg teacher ni. Kalau teacher tu yg sambut dia takde la dia meraung.

*Gigi masih kekal 2 batang kat bawah, belum bertambah

*Fav food masih bubur nasi campur, dah tak blend. Biskut pun suka sgt.. currently bagi butter biscuit yg bentuk binatang tu.

*Fav TV show currently Animal Mechanical. Dengar lagu je terus tarik tangan pegi kat TV.

OK, ada 3 video I upload ni. Atas permintaan Ceme. Ceme I know u read this. hehehe.. enjoy this vids!

First video: Mya and Daddy having a good time laughing.

2nd video: Mya terkedek2 jalan

3rd video: Mya menari to twinkle2 little star :) tapi takleh upload pulak.. ahaha next time la

Mandi sambil tidur. Magic?

2011-02-23T10:26:00.001+08:00

Dear readers,

Amaran: Agak censored ye video ni, bukan mommy atau daddy (Daddy ada sikit la, bertuala je..ceh).. tapi anak yang mengantuk. Hehe.. Sekarang jarang dah buat perangai camni. Dulu2 je masa 7 ke 9 bulan.

Kalau dengar betul2, ada kedengaran dia siap berdengkur lagi. Agaknya sedap kot air panas dan kena urut2. hehe

Spa Weekend at Andana Spa Glenmarie Shah Alam

2011-02-10T17:11:00.004+08:00

Hai kamu semua,

Dua minggu yang lepas, saya dan kawan baik saya Sophie telah cuba khidmat Spa yang ditawarkan di Andana Spa Glenmarie. Ini semua bertitik tolak daripada azam saya tahun ini untuk lebih memanjakan dan menata rias diri.

Ini ialah ulasan Spa ini dari kacamata saya dan rakan saya.

Lokasi Spa dia Holiday Inn Glenmarie agak bersesuaian kerana berada jauh dari hiruk pikuk kota. Landskap padang golf yang indah dan membuatkan diri terbuai dengan kehijauan saujana mata memandang juga membantu sesiapa yang memerlukan ketenangan minda

Saya telah membuat tempahan untuk empat orang tapi malangnya, lagi dua orang rakan tidak dapat memenuhi undangan atas sebab-sebab tertentu. Setelah pendaftaran dibuat di kaunter, kami telah memilih pakej standard yang disediakan iaitu

1) Sesi urutan badan
2) Sesi Hydrotherapi Pool
3) Sesi Mandi Steam
4) Sesi Sauna

Pakej ini bernilai RM148

Saya juga memilih satu lagi add on iaitu Manicure oopss.. tatarias kuku yang berharga RM35

Terdapat banyak lagi pakej yang disediakan, kamu boleh lihat di laman web mereka www.andanaspa.com atau di Facebook mereka.

Ruang penyimpanan barang yang luas disediakan dan bilik persalinan nya selesa tanpa perlu bersesak-sesak. Pelanggan pada hari itu juga tidak lah ramai, cuma mungkin kurang dari 5 orang.

Usai menukar pakaian ke pakaian yang disediakan dan dibaluti kimono, kami didatangi oleh pembantu Spa yang memberi sedikit briefing tentang pakej yang kami pilih.

Sebelum bermula, kami bersantai di Lounge di mana kami bebas makan buffet yang disediakan, dan membaca surat khabar sambil menonton Astro dan sambil berbincang keadaan ekonomi dunia.

*Gambar di ambil dari Facebook mereka*

Sesi pertama ialah sesi urutan oleh pengurut dari negara yang tidak diketahui kerana mereka tidak boleh berbahasa melayu mahupun inggeris, maka bahasa isyarat menjadi medium kami. Ada dua pilihan samada urut aromaterapi atau pijak. Saya memilih aromaterapi. Sesi urutan adalah biasa2 saja, tapi memang berasa sangat lega urat sendi dan segar.Sesi ini lebih kurang 45 minit

Untuk lelaki pun boleh

Seterusnya kami ke Hydrotherapy pool. Yang ini kegemaran saya kerana air panas dan jacuzzi nya sangat melegakan sendi -sendi dan urat belitung. Kami berbual sambil berbincang isu negara, hasil perbincangan yang sangat bermanfaat. Saya merasakan jika lagi ramai lagi banyak manfaat boleh diperolehi

Kami kembali ke Lounge untuk makan tengahari - Makanan adalah termasuk dalam caj, maka sila isi perut sesuka hati

Selanjutnya kami ke Mandi Steam dimana kami dikurung dalam bilik yang penuh Steam, agak menakutkan jika anda Klaustrophobic atau menghidap athma kerana mungkin anda sukar untuk bernafas. kami cuma bertahan selama 10 minit dan terus ke Bilik Sauna

Sini agak santai, kerana tiada steam yang menusuk hidung. Cuma kami berpeluh dek kepanasan wap. Selepas sesi ini, saya berasa agak selesa kerana peredaran darah saya telah diperbaiki.

Yang ini pula ialah movie room

Selesai sesi itu, bersihkan diri dan kami teruskan dengan sesi tatarias kuku. Hasil sangat memuaskan dan saya gembira.

Kesimpulannya, saya berpuas hati dengan spa ini, dan mencadangkan agar kamu mencuba nya, lebih lagi sesuai untuk bakal pengantin, suami isteri malahan sekumpulan gadis yang ingin berbincang isu- isu dunia.

Kami bercadang untuk menjadikan ini acara bulanan, tapi mungkin akan cuba di tempat yang lain. Sila tunggu review dari saya

Huggies VS Mamy Poko

2011-01-26T16:26:00.004+08:00

Dear readers,

Just some of my humble experience I thought i wanna share here pasal diapers. Yes, diapers, not Pampers yeah. Pampers is a brand.. Ok I know ya'll aware, I just had to point that one out. :))

Since birth, Mya wears Huggies all the time. Red one and Purple one, i think its Huggies Ultra the purple one the best.So far dia tak pernah kena diaper rash or bocor. So we are happy with that. The only thing about Huggies is, dia punya seal tu selalu sgt rosak atau tercabut. Tension tul.. And.. bau kencing kalau pakai more than 5 hours.

So we switched to Mamy Poko last month. Saja tukar angin org kata :) What can I say.. hmm.. bau kencing/hancing mmg takde. Good job! But hari tu Mya ada kena mild cirit birit, ada rashes kat pot pot dia. I don't know if the rashes is because of cirit birit or the diaper. Not taking anymore chances, we switched back to Huggies until today. :)

Anyway.. recently i cut my little girl's hair, since her fringe is getting too long. First time I did a major haircut on her hair. It was fun AND challenging. Since she cant stay put and keep trying to grab the scissor. I just distract her with toys and cut it carefully.

Not too shabby, huh? ;) Oh, and she's teething again! Her 2nd teeth making an appearance here. Good job baby!

Dari jauh nampak ok lah, tapi dekat tak align la mummy. huhu. Ok, next time kita pi salon yeah?

Her favourite things to chew on the list: her comb

Me carrying baby Hannah Irdina. Isn't she a sweetheart

Dynas and Mya. So kecewa she didnt bring her baby Khyra, I saw her pictures in Twitter sgt cheeky and commeeelll!

And then Mya met Kazim. Fadd+Aman's son.. Surprisingly, they clicked! Selalunya Mya tak heran with other babies. Ini siap sembang2 lagi.. bahasa baby dan bertepuk tampar. Amboi, anak mommy ni..

And then Sue, Ann, and Anil arrived.. Rindu sgt ngn kamu semua. Masing2 busy nowadays, dapat jumpa sekejap pun jadilah! Tak sempat nk sembang lama2 :'(

Hola,

What's new with Cik Mya Myiesha? :)

She is turning 9 month old in 3 days. Yes, I know.. time flies! Sometimes I swear I still can feel the contractions on my uterus, tapi ku berhalusinasi saje. hehe. Up to date she is 8.5kg, not too big or small i guess. Her weight tak naik mendadak these few months, slow and steady je. :)

By random:

*** Finally, masuk tahun baru, gigi dia dah buat first appearance! Quite late compared to her friends, baru sebatang, and mommy dah biasakan dia gosok gigi sendiri. More like she chewed on her toothbrush, than brushing them. Well, she'll get the idea eventually :) Just dont bite mommy too hard k, so far ada several cases yang membuat ku menjerit masa nursing dia. Sabor je la anak mommy ni.

*** She can wave Bye Bye, tapi wave dia skrg terbalik like wave to herself. Motif? Dia garu dahi pun terbalik tau. Instead of using palm of hands, she uses back of her hands.

*** She loves to climb the sofa and then dah boleh bertatih, tapi tgn pegang sofa la. Dulu panjat cabinet TV pastu tgk TV dekat2. Eii.. takut sakit mata dia nnt. Now I moved her playmat at the corner of the room. Sorry little lady!

*** She calls me Mam Maa, and her daddy Pap Paa. Especially kalau I gi dapur, menjerit la dia. I think she has that separation anxiety going on. Even on her walker, she'll chase after me around the house.

*** She is a friendly baby I can say, kalau my friends nak dukung dia OK je, siap lentok lagi. Especially on guys. O_o

*** Baru2 ni ada case rashes around her behind and sikit kat potpot. Maybe sbb hari tu ada mild cirit birit. You wont believe the remedy i used. Minyak masak! Her babysitter suggested letak sikit at the affected area. Dlm masa 2 hari hilang terus! no cream or ubat needed. Pejot ada suggest use Zinc cream, tak sempat beli dah cure. U mommies can try this at home :)

*** Her favourite show remains Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. I think she has fallen in love with Mickey Mouse, kalau ada kat PHDC tu je mesti senyum2 sorg2. So funny I tell you!

*** Her favourite food: Bubur nasi mommy. And also fruits.. mmg champion, berebut2 makan ngn mommy. Alhamdulillah, she has no problem eating.

I love you so much baby! You are the reason i wake up in the morning and want to be a better person. Be a good girl, and make mommy and daddy proud ok. Muahh

Sudden urge to splurge

2010-12-21T23:16:00.005+08:00

Dear readers,

Have you got this sudden urge to go shop aka impulsive buying? This ALWAYS happen to me when it comes to end of year (Read: YES :P ) I got these images of stuff that i want inside my head for quite a while now:

Coach Leopard Print handbag

Mantra sebelum beli bag "I have worked so hard, this is the time to reward myself" Repeat until diri sendiri tersaiko.

Nude Pumps: Every girl must own this, i quote KLS. :) I have one but mine is sky high heels, need one that is a little more at the comfy side so i can carry my baby without killing my legs.

Leather tights/pants

I have always been a tight fan, senang nak matching with my tops, leather tight will be a nice addition to my collection, feeling rock chic sementar deh?

Tomorrow I will be off from work, a good time to shop, no?

Toodles!

Mya LOLed So Hard At Daddy Doing Jumping Octopus

2010-12-14T09:58:00.001+08:00

Dear Readers,

This has been in my keepsake for quite a while, thought i want to share it with you, little Mya finds that Daddy's jumping octopus so funny. Hehehe.. it put a smile on my face, hope it does to urs. :))

Mya is 8 month old yesterday, now she is at a really active stage, climbing and trying to stand. Must watch her closely, dah dua kali dah jatuh, nasib baik atas play mat but still she cried so hard, terkejut agaknya. And also we are child proofing our home.. with cushions and pillows.. :P very important! safety first yo..

Too long

2010-12-08T12:44:00.002+08:00

Salam,

It's been agesssssssss! Sebenarnya rindu nak check blog kwn2 dan nak berkarya di blog sendiri, tapi apa kan daya, kekangan masa merupakan halangan utama ku. At office, busy with work. At home busy with house chores + melayan anak dan suami. I promise I will continue to blog, thanks to those yang bertanyakan whereabout ku. I'm still here!! *waving hands vigorously*

Well, sempena tahun baru, ada beberapa azam yang nak dilaksanakan

- Spending time/money untuk manjakan diri
* Spa once a month
*Facial twice a month
Can you believe it, since kahwin i never did facial or Spa?? oh God, i really let myself go. This won't happen again, no can do!

-Go for movies/ date night with hubs at least once a month
Sangat ketinggalan dalam arus perfileman. T__T

And before year end, will shop for myself and for suami, on clothes, gadgets, shoes etc.. Yay!!!

So guys, watch out for this space.. :)

P/S: Mya is growing up fast, she is almost 8 month old, sekarang dah pandai duduk, dan bye bye. Almost merangkak..Tapi gigi tak tumbuh lagi!! hahah, dok tunggu2 manalah her pearly whites, malu betul nak kuar!

Oh NO... I have become such a clean freak!!!

2010-10-04T12:46:00.003+08:00

Dear readers,

You know, since we moved back in to our house in Bukit Jalil last weekend, i can't stop my self from mopping the floor. Dekat 5 kali mop, itu pun still rasa tak puas hati. -__-" Am I becoming a clean freak?

By the way, today is Mya's first day with babysitter. Hope that she behaves herself. We met couple of times and so far I'm satisfied with the babysitter. She's a housewife taking care of her own daughter 7 month old and a toddler 1 year +. The house is clean, safe and her sis in law also is around to help take care of Mya. :)

My working hours will be shifted now, 9-5.30 the most. Then will pick up Mya and straight going back home. Have you guys drive around with a baby beside? What's your experience.. kalau sudi share sama saya, ya!

muchas gracias

P/s: Sedih cant attend pejot's and Diah's open house last weekend. If you guys read this, so sorry! Me will make up to you guys soonish OK!

Mya first time meniarap at 4 month old

2010-09-19T14:46:00.006+08:00

Dear readers,

Mya dah mula meniarap masa umur nya 4 bulan 1 minggu. Masa tgh powder her up after bath time as always I will turn her so that I can reach her back side.But this time she give a little push and then landed on her tummy. Reaksi muka dia masa tu pandang mommy dengan muka blur like "Did I just turn myself?", Mommy terus la tepuk tgn jadi cheerleader kejap. Each time she turned after that mmg bising la rumah ni. Saje bagi encouragement to her so she will do it again. haha.. Now she can toss and turn a few times and also can lift her bum in the air, belum merangkak lagi la..

One of her first attempts to turn

Yay.. berjaya!!

Rambut depan mmg dah pjg, tak syak lagi lepas ni mommy akan bertukar status jd hair stylist.

Mya and Mr Froggie Frog, BFF

P/S: Selamat hari raya! We will be moving back to our house in Bukit Jalil maybe next month. Jadi bermulalah kehidupan baru just the 3 of us. OMG... so nervous!

Mya first time demam

2010-09-03T19:03:00.000+08:00

Dear readers,

Meh nak kongsi pengalaman anak demam for first time.

Alhamdulillah, sepanjang dekat 5 bulan ni, jarang Mya sakit, only masa dia gi cucuk 4 bulan tu ada demam sikit. Right after coming back home from KPJ, I already can feel her body started feeling warm. I fed her medicine the doctor gave, hoping that she'll be OK soon. Pakai yang cam inject tu, she's not liking it at first but paksa jugak la masuk tekak dia.

Malam tu makin panas badan dia, kepala pun sama. So I pakai tuala kecik soak in cold water lap2 kan badan and kepala dia. She's really clingy at this time, asyik nak kena dukung kalau baring nak mommy peluk dia sambil nenen. Malam tu mmg tak tidor gilir2 lap2 badan dia and kepala, so worried tau la kan babies at this age cannot have fever yang terok. Every 3 hours we took her temperature using digital thermometer, paling tinggi is 39 deg, kelam kabut masa tu.. cuba turun kan temp dia.

Then only I figured out, after reading "Baby Care Day By Day" by Miriam Stoppard that one shouldnt use cold water untuk lapkan badan dia, instead use warm water. Laa. salah kaedah kaa..

The next day i got a tip from my friend Hazel

"Cuba tuamkan peha yg kena inject tu dengan botol susu letak air panas, slow2, maybe boleh tolong kasi hilang itu bengkak"

Bila try, alhamdulillah, nampak bengkak kat peha tu dah kurang sikit..

Mya.. cranky and not in a good mood lepas balik hospital, ohh.. her onesies courtesy of aunty ana. Thanks aunty!

Even her fav ball cannot make her smile.. she just wants to be lifted and then lentok je kat bahu

Malam tu sesi lap2 kepala, she is not as playful as usual. Kalau tak mulut dia bising jerit2 panggil mommy and daddy dia.

Lepas 2 hari, dah kebah demam dia. Terus jadi normal Mya si anak mommy. Gelak2 dan buat bising kat rumah tu.

Mya's first solid food

2010-08-28T13:20:00.004+08:00

Dear readers

*Dalam beberapa series akan datang, semuanya pasal anakku Mya, nak qada' byk entry yg i dah tertinggal.. tee hee*

Ok I know, I know.. mesti ada yang terkejut kenapa Mya start solid food awal? She is just 4 month old when i introduce solid to her.

During her 4 month check up, her Paed said she is ready for solid, based on a few criteria
1) Her current weight has doubled her birth weight
2) She can hold her head when being held
3) She shows interest when mommy is eating. mulut dia dok terkecip2
4) Her normal feeding 7 times daily doesnt seem enough, masih lapar.

SO I start with.... Rice cereal! Cerelac Rice+Soya cereal 1 teaspoon perday
Mya loooovveeeessss this. Masa first suapkan dia, she just taste it at the tip of her tounge and stares at me. Eventually she learn how to swallow and enjoy the cereal.

Her meals now is something like this

- Breakfast: BM
- Brunch: BM
- Lunch: 2 teaspoon of rice cereal + BM
-Tea: BM
-Dinner: BM/FM
-Late Dinner: BM
-Supper: BM

After 2 weeks of rice cereal, I'm thinking of giving her fruits like papaya or pear next week. I'm so excited! Doctor said needs to introduce 1 type at a time so if there is any allergy we can quickly identify what type of food she's allergic to.

"Sit me up" that i bought during Parenthood Expo. It's good for her to have a different view, asyik2 tgk ceiling je, mama bosan la

Next entry is Nia's birthday party and also.. Mya dah boleh meniarap!

Bila Anakku Mula Menyanyi (Practice her vocal chords :) )

2010-08-20T12:10:00.001+08:00

Dear readers,

Mya dah mula menunjukkan sifat kebecokan nya. If she demands attention, she will start to 'sing' like this. If she wants to sleep she will also 'sing' but with different tone. Camni ... AaaaAAAAaaaaAAAAaaaAAA.. repeat until sleep. heheeh

Mya's first trip to Genting!

2010-08-13T13:23:00.001+08:00

Dear readers,

Omigosh.. blog ni sangatlah terabai. Rindu lak time update blog 2 kali seminggu, itu zaman kegemilangan la, time takde baby and takde suami. Now, usah harap nak dapat waktu2 senggang sebegitu. T_T

Anyway, few weeks ago, my little baby went up to Genting for the first time. She had her first merry go round ride too, on a pony! Haha but of course she is too small to enjoy it, mak dia yg seronok lebih. :p Also bawak dia first time tgk wayang citer Salt lagi tau.. tapi mmg tak dapek tgk smpai habis pun, baru sejam dia dah restless, maybe the sound effect and the fact that she needs her beauty sleep makes her cranky in the cinema. OK fine you little diva, next time mommy bawak tgk citer Toy Story 4 ok?

Dah lama tak naik rides, so forgive our over acting- ness.

She needs her sleep every few hours, so kena pitstop, susukan dia and kejap je dia dah tido. Seronok sejuk2 tu kot.

Told you she's a sleepy head. Abaikan adik2 ku yang perasan rawkstar.

Mommy-daughter moment as per Pejot. hehe

I made this as my profile pic in FB since Nuurill claimed i dh kurus. Tee-Hee. The fact is... hanya suamiku yang tahu. mueheehe

Mya ni dia kalau time gelap or kena flash camera, automatic matanya membulat. haha.. mmg selalu gelakkan dia. Selalu experimen tutup bukak lampu dalam bilik. Tak caya tgk gambar2 kat bawah ni.

Si konfius. Jacket from my Sis in law marissa, beli kat Melbourne, finally she can wear it. Dulu besar giler.

Merry go round- yippie!!

FRIM outing with Scott

2010-06-28T22:17:00.000+08:00

Hey there

Salam semuanya..

Last weekend buang tebiat agaknya, pagi2 Ahad yang indah nak sejuk, aku berjaya menakluki bukit FRIM, hiking and canopy walk. Well, actually its all because of Scott, our leader in the States, his first time coming to Asia and we decided to take him for a canopy walk in FRIM. I drag hubs along, nasib baik dia sporting je nak join.

Not too bad ok.. per person is RM7 including ticket up to the canopy walk. And it is such a great view from about 200m above ground, boleh nmpak downtown KL dari jambatan itu, a good place for a work out, make you sweat a bit (for me a lot) at the end of the hike, there is a very nice Malay teahouse dengan makanan yang menggiurkan.

I admit, after almost a year without gym and proper workout, terasa lemau nye Ya Allah. Tercungap2 mendaki, pastu every 10 minutes, mintak nyawaaa.. mintak nyawaaa.. Tak fit nya daku, padahal zaman dulu runner sekolah ni. :p

Canopy walkway 500m above kena panjat. Sounds easy right? Wrong!

Scott posing for the camera, he really likes our jungle and tumbuh-tumbuhan for some reason, he said everything here seems like twice or thrice the size back home in Michigan. Sila lihat kayu jambatan itu nampak tak convincing kan?

Nyesal pulak letak towel kat bahu camtu, rasa cam mamak lap meja.

With my colleagues.. Salina and Lyna

Control penat.. dah sampai atas canopy walk tu baru lega dan dapat menikmati pemandangan

Konon sweet la tu kan

The walk.. sebenarnya agak gayat sebab macam tergantung dengan papan and tali, but if it is constructed and designed by the Germans you can rely your life on it. huuhu

KL view from atop

Vanessa, me, salina, lyna and Scott before the hike.. all set

Ok sila layankan gambar2 makanan yang sedap belaka kat Malay Teahouse, sgt sesuai bawak mat saleh ni gi sini sambil belajar makanan2 melayu

Scott's fav.. nasi lemak ngn rendang tok. Terbaik

Mee rebus yang mengasyikkan

Laksa paling fav semua org. Tak kedekut ikan langsung

Roti jala kuah kari.. nyummmssss

Kalau ada lagi guest, mmg tak malu la bawak diorg sini.

Its the time to SHOPPING

2010-06-25T03:03:00.000+08:00

Yes, its that time of the year again.. Get ready with your running shoes, your best eyes forward and your mommy jeans (eh tetiba..) cuz its time to burn a hole in your husband's pocket. Hehe

Mothercare outlet sale starts from tomorrow for members.. DARN IT! baru je siang tadi gi shopping kat Mothercare, tiba2 dapat announcement esoknya sale besar2an..... WHY OH WHY? T__T Petanda harus shopping 2 kali ke? :B

And other sale worth taking a peek....

Me not sure going, my schedule so full this weekend, oh, and still searching for taylor, most of those i asked dah x amek tempahan for raya. Wei, raya lmbat lagi la, awat semua dok kalut pi antaq awai?

My mya is getting smarter...and heavier nowadays. Dah boleh ketawa mengekek ok, mengiring sikit2 boleh la..she loves me singing to her,i do that everyday when she wakes up in the morning. Dah pandai main air liur..buat buih mmg favret, tido pun dah ada air liur basi.

Mya gelak tgk daddy buati muka

Now she knows she can make bubbles, that's what she's been doing while mommy's away

Si Pipi bulat yang mommy rindu hari2, i know u miss me too right baby? (perasan)

The dreadful 1st week of work

2010-06-22T00:24:00.000+08:00

Dear readers,

Am sorry, sgt busy this past week..tak sempat menjenguk blog kwn2 dan menitipkan komen,blog sendiri apatah lagi terabai.. Harap2 majikan nuffnang tak serik iklankan ad di blog ini. Hiks

I've started working since last week, and now holding the status as a working Mom. Perasaan nak meninggalkan anak di rumah mmg sayu dan sadis habes. But i'm lucky my own mother willing to babysit Mya, at least i'm not too worried.

Everytime asyik nak check hp je kot2 my mom call me, or sms. Rasa rindu je ngn Mya i will go to my phone's photos yg penuh gmbar dia. Takpun i will buzz my husband and he'll try to imitate bunyi2an mya. Hehe

Balik keje nak awal je, i dont want to waste precious time to spend with her. Time keje mmg all out try to finish up all the tasks and in between go to the nursing room and pump. I'm glad the company is thoughtful enough siap letak fridge and sterilizer in the nursing room.so convenient!

But being away from my baby got me thinking about the future.. The idea of staying at home Mom with own business is so tempting. I wish i am that strong to leave my career and everything behind me and start fresh. But of course a lot of things need to be taken into consideration. Sigh~ i wish things are easy...

Shanghai Pitstop

2010-05-26T14:34:00.000+08:00

Dear readers,

Sambungan dari post My trip to US-Alone

I was fortunate that on the way to Chicago from KL, my flight transit in Shanghai. And its an 8 hour transit.. so apalagi, I apply Chinese Visa and plan my tour in Shanghai. Fortunately again, I have a co worker in Steelcase Shanghai that is willing to be my tour guide. Ye lah, in a city where English is not widely spoken and written, I'm a bit skeptical to travel alone.

This trip is quite interesting because i got the chance to travel almost like a local. Getting around the city, we use taxi, bus, ferry and their bullet train- MagLev (stands for magnetic levitation-Sgt cool and laju okeh, best!)
Nasib baik basikal takde, kalau tak selamba dah kayuh.

It was almost winter, and was freaking cold there at that time. I was wrapped from head to toe, tak tahan sejuk! Siap berglove beria.. Shanghai is a very modern city, looking at their buildings and structures I thought that it resembles Jetsons cartoon. Especially the Oriental Pearl TV Tower. Hehe

This is at Yu Yuan Garden, a famous chinese garden yang dah berusia 500 tahun. A lot of ancient trees, rocks, caves and artifacts are displayed.

And its also raining! Sanggup berbasah nak ambil gambar punya pasal.

I'm at the bridge on top of HuangHi river that separates Pudong and PuShi. Latar belakang the modern city. Tapi berkabus.. you can see the oriental pearl tv from here..

Now here's a glimpse of PuShi, a part of the city where they maintain the old buildings and artifacts, its like you are living in 2 different ages. :)

On the way back to airport, I traveled by Maglev, top speet at 431km/h. Kejap gile dah smpai airport. First time naik bullet train.. jakun sikit. huhu

But the food sangat susah nak carik yg halal. I only eat sushi and soup.. My friend Neo offered me Peking Duck, dah la lapar, kalau halal dah lama ku sebat. isy.. I wish i could stay longer in Shanghai, sempat jugak pegi shopping Mall nye. Bapak besar gile. Tapi dah lupa apa namanya.

China is so rich with history and culture, and I love to see all of them.I dream of conquering the Great Wall in Beijing, and see with my own eyes The Tera cota warriors.. tgk kat Nat Geo jer.. hmm.. tak taulah hopefully 1 day sampai jugak.

Sorryla gambar2 tak menariks.. masa tu tak reti lagi berDSLR. and byk gambar quality out!

Food intake while prego

2010-05-21T13:55:00.000+08:00

Dear readers,

I dapat request from Laila and Naddynad on tips how to get baby yg sihat dan comel.

Firstly This is not to say that everything about my baby is perfect, tapi syukur Alhamdulillah, Allah kurniakan anugerah yang tak terhingga buat kami suami isteri dan I hanya ingin berkongsi pada yang sudi ;)

Macam2 petua tok nenek yang I dengar for how to get baby kulit putih, yang comel.. Tapi tak semua i ikut.. Depends on tekak jugakla time nak mkn tu kan

Breakfast
Ok, breakfast i memang suka sangat2 makan roti gardenia butterscotch.. Toast dengan planta and peanutbutter grape jam. Air pulak Milo o with gula sikit.

Lunch
Masa kat office, sehari mmg Milo je i minum, sampai 5 gelas kdg2 tu. Masa lunch selalu makan Subway sandwich, boleh kata seminggu 2,3 kali mkn sebab bawah ofis jer, senang..

Dinner
Balik rumah, dinner ikut selera apa yg ada dlm peti ais, masak jelah..but for sure lepas dinner makan fruits. My fav is mango, bananas and apple. My hubby make sure stok ada everyday. Drinks i mmg suka sgt minum ribena. All the time haus je kat rumah ribena ku cari. Susu enfamama tu rajin minum awal2 je, pastu malas.. Hampeh ada lg 3/4 tin lg kat umah. As substitute, i minum susu magnolia lo-fat hi-cal with oats- suka sgt yg ni..atau susu HL.

For supplement, i took acid folic, calcium, obimin and fish oil pills as advised by doc from first check up until dah nk deliver.

Kalau kat restoren, air yg selalu order, air kelapa (org kata elok minum masa akhir2 pregnancy, yes its true mya kuar bersih je) dan air barli(untuk clearkan urine). Air soya tu masa awal2 prego mmg minum pastu ntah nape tekak ni tak nak terima. So i skip soya for the rest of my pregnancy.

Oh yea, and i love love love sushi.. Tp bukan yg raw la kena pilih cooked ones. Kat Mid valley tu semua kedai sushi dah ku redah. Hehe

Banyak pasal air la pulak,sbb makanan i mkn mcm2 so tak igt sgt, cuma pantang mkn nenas and cuka and everything else yg tajam.

Would love to hear about you guys experience pulak.. Share with me!

My Trip to US- Michigan and Chicago.. alone

2010-05-11T12:21:00.005+08:00

Dear readers,

Nak flashback 2 years ago.. before there was Mya and before there was Suami.

I was sent for a business trip to Michigan, US for 2 weeks. Location is in grand rapids, Michigan.
It was a decent town with a systematic pola petempatan. Jalan raya dia mmg mcm grid jer, sgt teratur, lain sungguh dgn kat malaysia yg bersimpang siur, ber roundabout, so getting around town was no problem for me.

I sempat buat international driving lisence in JPJ, pastu sewa kereta kat sana. Menyenangkan I commute from hotel to office and from office to shopping complex. Hehe

This is Steelcase University's state of the art monument, hasil ciptaan someone famous yg sudah ku lupa namanya.But it was winter, they said summer was even beautiful!

Me and my best friend Kayln.. back then, she was preggie about 1month camtu. Now both of us are mothers, we still keep in touch by email, I can't wait to to meet her baby Tyler, if she comes here to Malaysia.

Kereta yg ku sewa, Nissan Latio, left hand drive. Mmg awkward first time bawak, lagi2 masa on the road, keluar simpang kena pikir dulu nak masuk laluan mana.. lawak gak selalu kena horn sbb lembab!

But one thing i noticed in US, is their attitude while in the car is something different. Contohnya, masa i tumpang kereta my colleagues over there, almost all their cars equipped with system yg berbunyi jika pemandu, passenger depan dan belakang tak buckle the seatbelts. kadang2 ku terlupa memasang seat belt, they will wait for me to do that before gerak. *kantoi tak biasa pakai seatbelt*

Lagi satu, its their habit masa potong kereta depan, before that they will glance back at their shoulders to see ada kereta tak, because that is the blind spot that we can't see thru mirrors.

And then while they have passengers in car, they will slow the radio as a sign of politeness atau pun senang nak bersembang. kalau aku, i'll blast the volume.. huhu

And on the way back home, sempat singgah Chicago for a few days. Chicago kota yang hingar bingar. Almost all the time mesti dengar siren polis ke ambulan ke bomba ke..Masa kat Michigan susah nak jumpa niggers, tp kat sini bersepah, they conquer the city

Union station, stesen keretapi kat sana. I travelled from Grand Rapids to Chicago by train, bayangkan, aku yg kurus (masa tu) bawa 2 biji beg besar gile mcm nak pi haji, travel sensorg. x campur beg laptop lg. Aduh tak larat nak mengangkut beg, padan muka.. masa tu tak biasa lagi dgn term 'tavel light'.

I use Amtrak train, perjalanan 5 hours from GR-Chicago

Niat di hati nak memanjat Sears tower ni, one of the highest building in US. Dia punye skydeck lantainya translucent so u can see below directly, tak direkomen untuk org gayat. Namun sbb cuaca tak elok, i cancel. amik gambar kat bawah je

At Millenium Park, banyak arca2 yg menarik, tp diselimuti salji. yg ni arca berbentuk ginjal manusia..

Motif bontot gajah? antara muzium yg sempat dikunjungi. Disebabkan winter, byk tpt menarik tutup. tp muzium2 bukak la, free pulak tu.

Sejuk kay. Chicago@ wind city berada dekat ngn Tasik Michigan, antara tasik terbesar kat US. Besar nya cam laut.. ini kat Millenium park lagi.

Chicago trolley.. medium pengangkutan pilihan. OK kalau nak tau, Hershey chocolate tu kat sini la kilangnyer, Oprah nye studio pun kat sini, Chicago broadway kat sini gak tp tak sempat tgk. Hooters.. kalau sesape yg tau. hehhe kat Grand Rapids ada, tp i tak masuk la lalu jer.

Gambar ada byk lagi tapi malas nak korek2.. Seronok gak travel sorg2 ni, decision sume kita buat, tp yg tak best susah nak amek gambar sendiri. but its an experience I'll treasure..lepas ni kita jln2 kat Shanghai pulak.

Feeding my baby

2010-04-30T15:37:00.000+08:00

Dear readers,

The things that makes me feel like i accomplish something is when i can feed my baby and then she sleeps for hours. Feels like i fulfilled my responsibility as a mom. :)

But the first few days upon her arrival is real torture. At that time susu tak ada, only colustrom je.. And Mya was demanding to be fed every 2 hours. Kesian tgk dia cam tak puas everytime i feed her. Time tu bergegar satu rumah dia menangis..Tp i had to constantly let her suck so she can get all the nutritions even tersengguk2 mengantuk masa bf.

The first time i breastfed her was surreal..x sangka i can nurse my own baby, i mean i saw everyone else doing it and now its my turn. I can feel the connection and the love, looking at her angelic face.. I just want to protect her from the rest of the world..

About cracked nipples masa baru2 bf, Ouh, sakitnya menyucuk2..everytime she suckles it's torture to me. The trick is to put a few drops of your milk around the nipple area. That would cure the pain. Atau pun pakai nipple cream pun boleh.

In my case day 5 only, my boobs start to produce milk. I felt my boobies so engorged, sakit.. I had to pump it all out. Every 3 hours if Mya is sleeping i had to pump, bagusla bak kata org, the more you pump or bf your baby the more milk is produced. So dont give up if the first few days nothing comes out, who says bf is easy..?

I tried as much as i can to fully bf Mya, but in a day maybe sebotol dua pakai formula milk since tok mama kdg2 nak tidur dgn cucu nya.

But now Mya prefer to sleep with Mommy at night, nak bau ketiak i kot baru leh tido.. Kalau tak terkebil2 je dia. Hehe

So what's your experience in nursing your baby? Share with me!

"burp baby burp"
Every time after feeding especially with bottle, i had to burp Mya

My Top 5 Items

2010-04-26T13:59:00.000+08:00

Dear readers,

Dah dekat 2 minggu menjaga anak dara ku ini, sikit sebyk dah tau peel dia camne.

Babies at this age ada 3 aktiviti je. Minum susu, tidor, poo poo. Senang kan jadik baby. Hehe

Ni top 5 items yg ku rasa sangat berbaloi2 ku beli untuk memastikan aktiviti2 nya tadi berjalan lancar dan tidak terganggu

1- C-shape pillow

Feeding the baby has never been so easy. Sambil bf leh buat blog, leh mkn malah bergayut di telepon. Kira cam bf handsfree lah, plus boleh reduce sakit pinggang.

2- Bottle strerilizer

Sterilize everything making the bottles germ free. Its expensive, yes.. But for me its a good investment.

3-miracle blanket from mothercare

Patutla dipanggil miracle blanket, really help my baby to sleep. Since Mya ni suka terkejut2, everytime dia terkejut habis terangkat kaki and tangan semua, even tgh tido. So, pakaikan je yg ni, she will sleep for hours! Just make sure air cond is on ;)

4- breastpump

Yea, aku dah start join club mengepam. When Mya's sleeping, this is what i'm doing. Stok the fridge with milk. My choice is medela swing, but i think freestyle lagi best kot. Whatever it is, i think whoever invented the pump is a genius! :p

5- baby tool box

Bila Mya habis je do her business, its time to clean her up. Mmg kena cekap at this area since dia ada timing dia sblm dia start to meragam. I put all the essentials inside the baby box senang nak grab anything i want in 1 place.. Yg penting kena ada cotton wool, baby wipes, minyak angin yu yi, nappy rash cream, bedak, spirit to clean her belly button.

Ni muka Mya tgh poo poo. Kalau dia buat muka ni siap la pampers baru dia..She's a pooping machine i tell you..

Mya Myiesha first check up

2010-04-20T12:22:00.000+08:00

Dear readers,

Alhamdulillah, my condition now getting better. Luka operation dah kering, tapi kena still take care la, takleh kena air..and i Dah beli velcro strap untuk mengecilkan perut ku yang gendut ini

Mummy is happy sebab Mya sihat, td gi check up doctor said so far so good. No jaundice or other illness.. She's in the pink of health. Berat pun dah naik 3.71kg. Yay.. For anak mummy!

Mya Myiesha- nama ni i dpt from internet, tgh browse nama2 baby, i mmg nak start from M. Bila jumpa Myiesha and tgk maksud dia terus dah tak tgk nama lain. Love at first search la konon.

Myiesha ada 2 meanings in different language. In Arabic it means- Berkat dari kehidupan. In African it means- Cinta yang sgt besar.

Mya pulak i mmg suka nama ni, so combine kan dua2. Actually from the first day i knew i'm pregnant, i dah set in my mind that its gonna be a girl. Hahah mmg over confident, i dunno why but i hv soft spot for baby girls.

Nah, gambar Mya tgh ngigau. Senyum dalam tidur.. Lawak la awak ni sayang..

Hai.. Saya bayi yang gembira sbb takyah susah2 keluar ikut birth canal yang sempit.

Oh.. Congrats to sasha!! She gave birth to adorable baby girl. Mmg sebijik muka ko, pipi tembam cam tweety. Geram!

Saat Melahirkan

2010-04-17T10:44:00.000+08:00

Dear readers,

Amaran: Every birth is a different story, readers' discretion is advisable.

Hello,

Tergerak hati nak menulis pengalaman bersalinkan anak dara ku yang sulung ini, selagi babak2 itu masih segar dlm ingatan

12April2010
Due date bersalin
Rumah
0200hours

Mata tak boleh lelap, asyik dok fikir kena induce kah aku hari ni? Camne rasanye sakit ke?Atau kena tunggu lagi beberapa hari? Berapa kali dah dok ulang alik ke toilet mlm tu nk kencing..suami kat sebelah dah lama in la la land.

Then suddenly i heard 'pop' sound. Takdela obvious kuat giler, tp tau la something is happening inside.. Tak lama pastu terasa panas je, celah kaki. Ni sah ni waterbag broke, sbb takleh nk control air tu.Tgk kat tilam dah basah..Cepat2 kejut suami, he woke my parents, pastu siap2 gi hospital. Masa tu tgk jam kul 4.30am. Contractions takde lagi. So i relax je la, siap bfast.. Pack last min stuff, posing amek gambar.. Baru gerak

Dah nk dekat smpai kul 6 camtu baru terasa mild contraction, start timing dlm 20 mins apart. Gi kat emergency then terus je kena wheel to labor room.

Masuk labor room, tukar baju spital nurse bagi ubat beron. Igt kan kena mkn, rupanya ubat tu masuk kat lubang bon, dia pam kan supaya dpt kuarkan apa yg patut di keluarkan. Memang iye, tak sampai 5 min, terus gi toilet. Haha.. Berkesan betul. Lepas tu alat CTG utk monitor heartbeat baby and me di pasang.

Masih boleh senyum kambing lg masa ni

Then nurse check bukaan serviks,
" tarik nafas dik.. Sakit sikit ye"
" ni baru 1.5cm, takpe, awak masuk wad dulu k, nnt tunggu doctor sampai"
"ni rasanya ptg dah bersalin dah ni.. Kalau tak kita jumpa lg la mlm ni masa shift saya"
Kata nurse sambil tersenyum manis.

* telan air liur*

0730hours
Suami settlekan urusan admit wad, i kena wheel to wad.. Masa ni contraction dlm 15 mins apart.

Camne rasa contraction? Dia cam rasa cramp masa period, tp mungkin skala kesakitan tu 4-5 kali ganda, lg dekat nk bersalin lg kuat sakitnya. Dia start from belakang, kat area pelvic bone rasa cam ditarik2 n berat urat2 semua pastu baru rasa kat area ari2. Sakitnya tu Tuhan saja yg tau. Masa ni apply breathing tehnique, boleh help to get through it. Kalau boleh jgn jerit sbb boleh drain your energy. Just take deep breath, pastu slow2 hembus. Baca doa2 yg patut..masa ni husband play important part, to be your coach, igtkan how to breath, time the contraction, help to keep calm.

1100hours
Doctor pun sampai nk check, lps the usual BP check, fever check sume tu, dia kuar kan satu alat besi. Bentuknya mcm conductor bus dulu2 clip tiket tu.
"bukak kaki, relax..Yang ni sakit sikit ye, tahan ye, doctor nak bukak jalan"
"tarik nafas panjang2"

Dia masukkan benda tu kat 'VG' pastu buat putaran maut 2,3 kali. Yg ni mmg betul sakit, terasa cam dirobek2, sabar je la.

1500hours
Masa ni still boleh borak2 lg ngn family,sambil tahan contraction.. sambil tu dok fikir dah berapa dilate ni, sure dah 6cm camtu. Doctor kata kalau dah 6cm dah bleh masuk labor room. Oh, meals served as usual. Dont forget to eat, you need energy to push.

Lunch is served

Bila doctor dtg check lg, dia kata baru 4cm. She decided to proceed to labor room sbb takut lama sgt baby nnt infected with germs since waterbag dah lama pecah.

Wah.. Masa ni dah cuak, i tgk my mom's face, dia tgk i.. Dua2 dah start nak emo. Sempat mintak diorg doakan i selamat semuanya. Ok this is it!

1730hours
Labor room

Coming in labor room, i dah set my mind not to take epidural. Kira mentally dah prepared to have the baby as natural as i could. Nurse ada bg pentadine 2 shots at the butt to ease the pain.. Not really ease la, cuma make u feel drowsy n ngntuk sikit.

Me and hubby berjuang dlm labor room lawan contraction, time ni dah about 5mins apart. Baru je habis 1 contraction, nk relax sikit, dtg lagi 1.. Kasi la laughing gas ke mmg x jln.

Around 9pm camtu, i'm soo tired already. Energy level mmg dah tinggal 20% je, dr ada bg drip utk kuatkan lg contraction so boleh bukak cepat lg, now baru 5cm!! Can u imagine lg 5cm to go.. Ni dah dekat 18jam tahan sakit.

Around this time heartbeat baby dah tak stable, i can hear from the machine bila contraction dtg je, her heartbeat slows down.

Dr discuss with me n hubby she's afraid of the risk if continue any longer. I had to be cut open.. C-sect.. I cant push with only 5cm dilation.

2230hours
Nurse siap2 kan i nk masuk operation theater. I kena masukkan tiub kat VG untuk air kencing. Klau masukkan tiub ni kita x sedar pun kencing, sbb air tu terus je mengalir kt packet tu without notice.

Contraction still ada, so bayangkn masa diorg transfer katil tu semua i hv to tahan lg, it was a gruesome time.

Masuk operation theater dr bius kasi 2 shots at my spinal utk proses separuh bius. She explained i am fully awake during operation, i can feel dr touching nudging, but no pain.. Kaki rasa berat je takleh gerak langsung

Masa tu mmg takde lngsung sakit, but i cant see the procedure. Kena tutup ngn kain.. I only can hear sound, the doctors talking n giving instruction.

First thing i rasa diorg potong pakai laser, sbb ada bunyi pastu cam ada bau daging terbakar. Then the dr do their thing, i can feel they tekan2 perut i, agaknya nk tolak baby ke bwh.

And then i hear the awaited sound.. The first time i hear my baby cries.. That is the most wonderful sound i've ever heard. For me i can remember her just "ehek ehek" takde la menangis kuat, ala2 manja je. Nurse dtg tunjuk baby pada i. Dia kata baby girl ya puan.. And showed her ehem2..Hehe..

Wah cam x caya she's in front of me! I kissed her cheeks sambil tu dah berkaca2 mata ni, apa yg doc buat pastu dah x kisah, i can just feel the nudging, nk kuar kn uri kot. Lps jahit2 sume i'm done.. The whole procedure tu about 1 1/2 jam je. Laju jer!

Selesailah proses melahirkan Mya Myiesha. Yang plg best antara semua is part operation kot, sbb x rasa apa pastu laju je. Yelah lps dekat 20 jam thn sakit..

Tp operation ni sakit nya lepas beberapa hari. Nk bgn kena slow, nk duduk nk kencing sume hati2..takleh urut right away..

Mya,
Mommy harap Mya besar nnt baca entri ni, Mya tau camne mommy lahirkan Mya. Mommy really hope u will be anak yg solehah, anak yg mendengar ckp.. Itu je mommy mintak. I love u so much baby!

Hi everyone, meet the apple of my eyes!

2010-04-13T17:51:00.000+08:00

Salam..

Alhamdulillah, saya berjaya melahirkan seorg puteri pada pukul 12:08am pagi tadi. Baby seberat 3.34kg, pjg 53cm.. She's my baby, Mya Myiesha binti Mohd Sofyan Arief.

Nnt la i cerita kisah kelahirannya ke dunia. Its not a sweet story to tell, but lets put it this way.. I'm not among the lucky ones.

But all of the pain gone bila pertama kali dgr tangisan si kecik ni dan cium dia. Its all worth it, yg penting baby selamat dan sihat.

Now i'm adapting to my new title mommy!

Updating the updates

2010-04-05T14:21:00.001+08:00

Dear readers,

Heyya! Managed to update my blog albeit the 'busy' schedule. Nope, saya belum beranak lagi, baby decides to stay a little bit longer in my womb. Belum ada sign2 yg perlu berkejar ke hospital. :) My 2 friends Tshee and Ana, yang jadik benchmark i sbb due date lebih kurang sama dah selamat melahirkan. Baby boy and baby girl last week. Alhamdulillah..

I started working from home last Monday, since my colleagues pun dah started to worry about me getting around the office with my huge belly and plus I dah dapat green light dari Boss, so why not.. still a few more work to escalade down to the team and I'm done. Tutup laptop.. bye bye.

Oh yea, a few things happened.. I didn't realize I didn't blog about my birthday. Haha.. Guess that I was too caught up with everything and birthdays were not as happening as it used to be. Dah tua dah kan.. hhuhu.. So I turned sweet 27 on 16th March. No fancy celebration, just family dinner at Thai restaurant, and hubby bought me cake, a piece of each cake displayed in Secret Recipe. Thanks to everyone who wished through facebook, twitter, sms, you guys rocked my world! and also CARD.. omg.. i still receive kad bday ok.. from beloved friend Pejot. U're so sweett.. hehe

I had 2 more birthday celebration organized by my department and my office. Hanya makan2 kecil bertemankan kek. Woah mmg diabetic gue dibuatnyer.

My family came back from Euro trip last Monday.. Italy-Switzerland-German-Belgium-Holland-Paris-London. Their pictures tell everything, seems like they had a hell lot of fun on the trip. Jealous tau! Nasib baik ada ole2 untuk mak buyung ni, takde la meroyan sgt.. This is what I got! My dream bag.. and also byk jugak baju2 baby yg mama borong kat London, Italy and Swiss. Thanks Mama and Ayah. Love you both!

Last checkup, baby weighs at 3.4kg. Kepalanya pun sudah 9cm.. Doc said, kalau tak kuar by next thursday mmg kena induce la gamaknya. Takut besar sgt nnt Mommy susah nak beranak. Maklumla, mommy kan petite orgnya.. (bluwek.. :p)

To Sash, I'm still here.. Selamat berehat2 di rumah, and counting days.. Anything, dont forget to update me k. :)

To Sophie.. Happy belated bday babe! We celebrate nnt la after my confinement. Wah.. a long way to go. hehe

Selamat pengantin baru to Ami Schaheera, Atiqah Adnan, Qis and all you newlyweds. Semoga bahagia ke akhir hayat.

To you ladies, keep updating your blogs. i will be reading them to kill my time..!

Penatnya tulis entry ni, panjang berjela. Now the event dah berlalu i can concentrate on my upcoming 'labor day'. Boleh la nak push push dengan happy.

Actually the signs is already there, my last checkup last Thursday, doctor confirmed baby already engaged. Means dah tak berpusing2 dah.. dia dah turun ke bawah. She's already 3.2kg, and doctor predicted that my actual delivery date would be earlier than expected, maksudnya lagi seminggu dua ni. Kaki ku pun dah start bengkak, water rentention since 2 days ago. Tapi yang kelakarnya sebelah kaki jer. hehe

Soo, will wait for the next signs before going to the the hospital which is

* Regular and with less interval by time contraction (Needs to check contraction timing)

* Bloody discharge

* Water bag break

Mana yang datang dulu.

Will update when the time comes!

Dear readers,

Nak apologize to Mawar for the delayed entry and pictures. Haha.. I thought that I could post berbagai ragam masa baby shower hari tu tapi sekali belek camera, chet.. ini jer?? Nampak sangat laki aku concentrate makan ngn sembang hari tu.

About baby shower, I thought I could organize one for myself but because of time constraint and it could possibly drain me since a lot of work had to be done..maybe for next pregnancy la (Wow, sudah plan).

OK here's pictures from the baby shower i attended.

Food.. it was gooooddd.. Mawar, nasi ayam tu mmg tasty, I mmg dah lama tak makan nasi ayam, mmg bila nampak je atas meja tu, suka sekali.!

Baby Adzryll and Daddy, antara yang hadir. Met with Mummy Anita and had so much to talk about. Macam2 tips dapat. Thanks Anita!

Tuan rumah sedang cabut hadiah lucky draw.

And then last couple of weeks, I managed to basuh baju2 baby and also lampin nyer. It was so odd to see all these mini clothes hanging, really felt that my baby girl is already here with us, looking at her clothes and all. Can't believe in less than a month, I'm holding her in my arms.. after 9 months carrying her around in my belly. Emotional moments plis... huhu.. Mesti rindu dia tendang2, gerak2 and makes me geli always.

Post Natal Plan- Berurut, Berpantang & Beyond

2010-03-09T18:47:00.006+08:00

Dear readers,

Last weekend me, mama and Sapet sempat menjengah ke pusat rawatan selepas bersalin (post natal fascility) di Puchong. About berurut dan produk2 nya mmg la saya sgt in the dark. Zero knowledge.

So after listening to Kak Ida about the packages they offered, we chose 7 days package. Tukang urut akan datang ke rumah untuk menjalankan tugas. Harga RM100+ per day

TRADITIONAL HOME NURSING
*Herbal Bath for mum
*Baby Bath & Massage
*Post Natal Massage
*Tungku / Heat Therapy

Produk yang digunakan pulak ialah TANAMERA
Lepas kaji TanaMera ni kat internet, nampak cam convincing la. Tapi hasilnya kena tunggu review I after pantang :)

This is from TanaMera website:

The set is a great post-natal treatment because:»
*Is made from plant-based natural ingredients including the oils »
*Is traditionally and scientifically formulated to help your body recover in a shorter time »
*Is easy to use. Most of the items are packed for single usage for hygiene purposes. »
*Is complete and convenient.

Now I dah masuk week 35. Rasa tak larat nak bawak perut ni, mmg dah terasa berat, lagi2 baby aktif, rasa senak perut tu biasa lah.

Simptom2 lain yg mula menjelma
* Heartburn- Yang ni macam rasa pedih kat hulu hati- solution: makan kuantiti sikit, tapi kerap
*Angin- Dah mula balik, rasa cam masa mula2 pregnant dulu, asyik sendawa je, pastu makan silap je boleh muntah

Doctor nasihatkan I jangan aktif sgt, sbb baby dah ada tunjuk sign nak kuar, ada mild contraction last week. (Probably just Braxton Hicks contraction) Menakutkan.. Mommy tak ready lagi nak masuk labor room! Tapi hospital bag dah mmg siap2 sedia kat boot kereta, just in case.

Ada a few more things to do before baby arrives. Hopefully sempat la nak gi gathering yang dirancang itu. :)

Tragedi dan Dugaan

2010-03-02T16:42:00.005+08:00

Dear readers,

Sehingga ke hari ini, apa yg terjadi pada hari itu masih lagi terbayang2 dalam kepala ku dengan jelas

KM 414.9, Lebuh raya utara selatan menuju ke Ipoh, dekat2 lembah beringin.
26 Feb 2010
1815 hours

Hujan lebat selebat-lebatnya, my family on the way ke rumah Opah untuk kenduri doa selamat for baby in tummy and mummy to be. We convoyed 2 cars, I was in kereta Ayah together with my parents. Hubby couldn't make it because he had to work. He planned to join us in Opah's house the next morning. My brother Along and my sisters were in Suzuki Swift. Ayah was driving quite fast considering its raining heavily, i glanced at the meter, it shows 110km/h.

Baru je nak sandar kepala i heard Ayah screamed "EH....ALONGGG!!" .In the rear view mirror he saw the car was spinning 360 degrees a few times and just like pinball game, it hit the divider and I sempat tgk the car swerved from the fastest lane on the right to the emergency lane in a very fast speed.

YA ALLAH, memang kecut perut sgt masa tu. My first expectation was, somebody hit the car from behind and it makes it spin uncontrolably. Turns out, the car skidded sbb langgar lopak air. Miraclously, it didn't even make contact with any cars, despite the quite heavy traffic at that time. Thank God, other cars sempat mengelak atau pun brake. Otherwise things might turned out so much worse. Along didn't even hit the brake when the car skidded. He said, if he do that it would possibly make the car turned up side down or even crashed to the opposite lane.

Ayah pulled over immediately, and went to the scene. Me and mama we just prayed hard in the car for the girls and Along were okay. Entah dari mana tetiba ada mamat ni pun pull over sama, rupa2 nya dia ada tow truck. laju gile, tak sampai 10 minits after the accident. I'm not sure whether this is a hot spot for accidents since ada org dah standby situ or coincidentally he was there.

I called hubby and he immediately came to the rescue. He went straight to the Balai Polis to accompany Along make a police report. The rest of us head back to Ipoh, i saw Amy and Ika were shaking from the accident. Alhamdulillah, they all walked out without a scratch. But it was really a terrifying moment for all of us.

The aftermath, condition of the car

Looking at the crash, seems like the car was on the opposite direction when it hits the divider. kira head on to the ongoing traffic.

Org Plus Ronda pun sampai. From front the car seems fine kan. Thats why terkejut gile bila tgk kesan remukan kat belakang tu

My Office in The gardens South tower
1 March 2010
1900 hours

I was working late that day, a lot of work stuff to settle after the long holidays. My staff offered me pistachio nuts from Mekah before she went back home. Ada air zam zam and kurma sekali. She said her mother just came back from Umrah. Alhamdulillah rezeki aku. I know that nuts are good for baby inside. So I munched innocently, dekat separuh plastik tu without realizing what is the effect of it to my body.

Not long after that, masa dalam kereta with hubby suddenly i felt burning sensation all over my body. I had the urge to scratch my whole body sbb rasa sgt berbisa dan gatal. To a point I almost wanted to take off my clothes! And then I started to feel my eyelids were swollen. Tetiba rasa bengkak and my eyesight getting narrower. Memang time ni dah nangis dah ni. I was so scared, because I never had such allergies in my life before. I am one of the lucky ones who were born without any allergy to foods.

Yea, I looked something like this yesterday. But at the eye area only. Picture from Hitch movie.

Arrived at home, i took a shower hoping that it would ease of the pain. Nothing happened.. I saw my skin tetiba jadi merah pastu ada berbiji2 bengkak2. so we rushed to the nearest clinic. Menangis2 ni depan doctor, drama betul. i kept asking him about my baby, is she affected? Mmg takut sgt anything happen to the baby. He said don't worry baby is fine, I'll give you some medication and ubat sapu.

Terus balik rumah mama, mama and Ika slowly sapu ubat and massage me. The itchiness getting better after makan ubat. But pagi tadi it came back, kali ni mmg kaw2, habis satu badan bengkak. Looks like its still in my system. I pray hard that it will go away fast, i don't want to take any medication especially dah dekat2 nak deliver ni.

Hebat sungguh dugaan minggu ni. I'm getting nervous as the days getting closer, I hope no other bad things yang terjadi lepas ni. Ya-Allah, jauhilah kami sekeluarga dari segala kejadian yg tak diingini. Semoga anak ini selamat dilahirkan ke dunia. Amiin..

My Pregnancy Photoshoot

2010-02-26T16:11:00.005+08:00

Dear readers,

I had my pregnancy photoshoot done last few weeks, when I was in my 30 weeks pregnancy. Perut pun masa tu kelihatan sebesar bola tampar.

Our good friend Armi from Fotofanartik offered us to be the photographer for this memorable shoot in his white studio located in his house in Shah Alam.

Hasilnya, layan kan gambar2 di bawah ini :)

Takde konsep apa2 pun, but we planned to make it as fun as possible. Merujuk gambar2 di internet dan idea2 dari encik fotografer dan I sendiri, ini lah outputnya. Props tu ada yg bawak sendiri ada yg disponsor oleh Armi and Nuuril. Oman pun ada jugak enterframe tu. hehe.. he looks so curious to see us posing there. Thanks to Oman, aunty pinjam kasut2 dia and also the alphabets tu.

CD will be ready this Tuesday, can't wait to see the rest of the photos!

So, if any of you guys interested with Armi's work (including wedding package), can contact him or his wife

Emir Faiz's first birthday party

Pagi2 tu, got a call from Puan Mira.. invitation for lunch and party kat rumah dia. Memang initially we have no plans, so go sajer! Bought the little prince toys, but for 3 years and above. Masa belek2 toys for 1 year old cam tak challenging and menarik. Itu pasal beli yang advance punyer. Hope Emir likes the present!

Emir's birthday cake, from Baskin Robbins. Memang yummy, bukan saje menjadi rebutan anak2 kecil, ni mak buyung pun berebut sekali.

Emir with his Ayah, Cipmunk. He's my schoolmate back in Jenan. Bro, jaga2 nampak cam perut dah ke depan dah tu.:p

Emir's ibu, Mira. She's currently attached in Libya..kerja, very strong lady, sebab terpaksa berjauhan with her son and husband. 5 weeks off and 5 weeks working. Kalau aku la, tak sanggup agaknyer.. Emir mmg muka ibu dia kan.

Sabby and Adam's walimah

Held at Pusat Komuniti Damansara, such a beautiful wedding. Dewan pun tak besar sgt, felt very warm and comfy.

Tak melepaskan peluang mengambil gambar bersama pengantin baru Amy and Hatim yang panas. Hot from the oven la katakan. Turns out Hatim is cousin of Dena one of my best friend. Such a small world

Sesi bergosip before snapping pictures

With them bloggers yang hot belaka..

Keadaan makin tak terkawal.. Kelihatan di situ Qis, Dytia, Hanie, Anil, Fathiah, Diah, Another blogger (I'm sorry I didnt get your name dear) Nadd, Amy and Abby. Very nice to meet all of you and catch up with each other.. in the real world!

Ini shot paparazi yang tetiba muncul entah dari mana

Gambar ni wajib ada lah kan. So lovely!

Lovely lantern as deco. So huge, mine is maybe half of the size only hehe

Sesi beramah mesra dengan pengantin. Kelihatan juga, other bloggers Anne and Wawa yang datang lambat sket. Sempat chit chat sepatah dua kata dengan diorg. :) Lovely couple! To Sabby, sorry la kalau video tu turn out merepek sbb kitorg pun cam kena terjah hari tu. Tunggang langgang je speech. huhuhu

Me and Nadd, sempat exchange experience with the makbuyung jr. hahha..

Para suamis dan Bfs, sebenarnya me and Sapet tak perasan ada theme, which is traditional or formal. So bila sampai baru perasan.. Sapet dah cuak takut dia sorg je pakai informal. Tapi nasib Zam pun sama. hehe Oh by the way, Mizi dah takleh masuk group photo yang standing la. U dah steal all the lime light with your height! haha.. kidding

To be continued Part 2

P/s: Will be heading to Ipoh in a shortwhile for kenduri doa selamat Mom to be and baby inside. Dah lama tak menjenguk Opah kat Ipoh tu. Opah here I come!

P/s/s: Sempat join meeting Diah, Anil and Amy smlm, tp tak boleh stay for long. Tak sempat pun jumpa Amy, but meeting progressing fine, will need your output in order to make this happen. Wait for updates from Puan Pengerusi k. :)

Review: Apps in Iphone

2010-02-18T23:46:00.016+08:00

Dear readers,

First off, congrats to Sabby, WLT and Amy for their weddings, selamat datang ke dunia baru sebagai isteri. Moga kita semua menjadi sang isteri yang disayangi suami dan dirahmati Allah selalu. God bless your marriage! Great time catching up with other bloggers during Sabby's wed. Great walimah. Love all the fresh flowers! As usual semuanya pun gojas belaka :)

Today, berkesempatan attend baby shower yang diorganize oleh Mawar. Alhamdulillah, akhirnya ketemu juga setelah asyik singgah blog je kan. Thanks! Gambar for this week will be uploaded later in a new entry.

Terasa nak buat review Apps yg berguna untuk didownload ke Iphone. (Berguna ke? Not all, some are just for my entertainment purpose.. hehe)

Here are some of the Apps that i simply love

Most of them I install from App Store, some from Rock.. all of them are free tho :)

Words With Friends

This game is officially my hubby's and my favourite. Before tidur mesti stay up main.. its similar to scrabble, good for me as it stimulates my brain and vocab (good for baby inside too, hope she can learn something from mommy! :p) but usually our opponents are from US. So, if you dowloaded this app, please play with me! my username aziriahhazrin. :)

AlQuran v2

Very2 convenient for me and baby inside. Usually before tido I will let baby listen to surah2 sambil i fahamkan translation every sentence. You can choose which surah to download from all 30 juzuk.

Preggers Factoidz

This app is just facts about pregnancy, nothing much but it's all good to know!

Valet hero

Another game I downloaded. My hubby's fav, selalu berebut nak main. You'll need to guide the coloured cars to their parking spot, colour coded. So susah ok.. especially when the interruptions like train, policecar etc is there. Ini memang hand and eye coordination game. Makes you stay alert (and occasional scream tu biasa lah hehe)

CIMBclick

To check balance, online transfers and where is the nearest CIMB ATM around you. Hope they will add pay bills menu soon!

Titanic Rescue

This is hand and eye coordination game juga. Need to focus to put the passengers in the boat with same colours. But their voices are funny, tp bila main lama2 rasa cam annoying. Still, its one of my fav.

Rock Band

Same like guitar hero or rock band, but the free version in Iphone only has 1 song. Learn to Fly by Foo Fighters. You can choose whether to play the guitar, bass, vocal or drums and with 3 difficulties. I suka main drums senang sikit. Yang lain2 habis hancur.. hehe

There's a lot of other apps in Iphone, I'm now searching for Baby's.. like Flashcards or Letter Board untuk si kecik ni.

If you have any more interesting Apps I can download, please share with me!

Azieria and Emilia- SOS slot @ mix fm

2010-02-15T18:05:00.005+08:00

Dear readers,

Early this month, my lil sister Amy decided to get me involved in her obsession with mix fm SOS. She listened to the slot every morning while I'm still fast asleep.

That morning around 8, I got a call from their producer, asking me to freshen up and will call me later for the real recording. Jadik sempat la mak buyung ni gosok gigi basuh muka sementara menunggu the 2nd call.. hehe

Here's the podcast of the song they created just by mixing up all the details Amy had sent them earlier by email. They're quite good, making me giggle the whole conversation with their spontaneous words. Check out the song, by clicking picture below.. xoxo

Stroller and baby cot review

2010-02-08T10:55:00.005+08:00

Dear readers,

I have Nadia asking me about how the 2 in 1 infant car seat/push chair and baby cot/playpen that I bought during YES works. So i decided to make a decent review of how these multi function gizmos work wonders (at least to me) :)

Before that, here are some of the items hasil sebatanku di warehouse sale tempoh hari.

I got this pair of too cute crocs for babies for my little girl. I know its too early but its just too tempting to not buy! MM dah dapat dah kasut raya dia tahun ni. Haha.. mommy ngn daddy pun takde lagi kasut crocs tau. Nyesal tak beli untuk diri sendiri hari tu. Got this for RM90

Also, barney si purple friendly dinosaur made it to the list. So plushy and it costs RM20.

Buggy organizer for the stroller. Although dah ada compartment kat bawah tu, but it won't hurt to have an extra just within reach. RM 80

This is how it looks like when the car seat is attached to the stroller. From newborn until she outgrows the seat, this is perfect for me sbb boleh nampak baby while pushing the stroller. Untuk detach the car seat is easy, just push the buttons on the side simultaneously.

Kalau takde car seat tu, it will be like a normal stroller, she can use this until dah besar panjang.

A closer look at the car seat..

Here's how to install in the car. Me and hubby dgn gigih bukak manual dan pelajari cara2 betul installation. Tak susah, cuma kena selalu practice baru jadi cekap dan pantas.

OK, here's something about the baby cot. With a simple snap of buttons its easy to attach/detach changing table yang kaler kuning tu. I've read that while most moms don't bother to have a special place for changing baby's diapers, it's actually good kalau dpt yg tinggi sikit supaya tak sakit belakang masa change diapers tu. Not necessary to have but it's totally up to you.

It also comes together with functions like night light, vibrating and soft musics (that runs on battery) to help ease the baby to sleep. Yang ni tak tau la whether berkesan ke tak. (macam tak je hehe) There is also another model yang takde function ni and its Rm100 cheaper if I'm not mistaken.

The playpen is located bawah mattress tu. If you remove the mattress, you can use this cot as a playpen. Oh, kelambu tu beli asing yer. Ada jugak jenis kelambu macam tudung saji tu. That will work fine too. The best part is this cot is mobile and can fold it boleh bawak travel balik kampung.

Yang ni my baby's bedding set. Ada cot bumper ( I dunno why i bought it, tak perlu pun, tp sbb masa tu 70% off so i just grabbed it. haha) Dimple pillow, mini bolsters and thermal blanket.

If you look closely, bawah tu is the mattress(comes together with the cot), china silk (bought by Tok Mama while she was in Beijing, the comfiest and softest fabric ever. I dah test dulu.. hehe) And also lapisan atas sekali waterproof bedsheet, in case 'accident' happens it will not ruin the silk. (I hope)

Oh stroller is from Vesta by Mothercare- Sponsored by my lovely Mom and Dad

Baby Cot from Graco- Sponsored by my Sis in Law and Mom in law
Thanks bunches!! I love them to bits

So there you are my review yg tak seberapa. Hopefully can help the parents-to-be to make their choice before buying. If you don't like it, there's always other options to choose. So choose wisely.

:)

When Karma Bites You In The ASS

2010-02-03T14:52:00.004+08:00

Dear readers,

Last night both of us watched the Biggest Loser Asia, right after dinner as usual. Every week, this will be our routine on Tuesday, cepat2 balik kerja, masak laju2, makan laju2 pastu menempek depan TV.

This episode quite drama gak la, trainers gaduh2, Kristy si trainer red team tak puas hati sebab some of the blue team contestants water load themselves before the weigh in. They do that so for next week weigh in, they will have the biggest weight lost. (Since it's easy to get rid of the water wight)

Well, that didn't happen. They didn't lose as much as they expected and in the end blue team lose the weigh in by 1kg. HAH! See, that's what i call Karma payback.

Privileges when becoming Mak Buyung

I'm not talking about discounts in restaurants or shopping mall. (Wish such thing exists for pregnant ladies.. hehe)But, I have got into some situation where I feel blessed that there are still good samaritans around us :)

In the clinic
I was at Ranjit Clinic SS15 last month, to check on my skin problem. Seems like its getting worse when I'm carrying the baby. Tau la kan patient dia mmg penuh satu klinik tu awal2 pagi lagi, even I made appoinment 2 weeks back, still have to wait for a while for my name to be called in.
Seating is limited, I didn't expect anybody to offer me their seat. But, there is this young chinese boy, politely offered me his seat. Cam terkejut gak la, maybe because kesian tgk si perut besar ni dok standing there fidgeting and shifting weight from left to right. Masa nak tunggu for ubat pun ada this lady offered me her seat pulak. Ok.. I'm touched.

While queueing for sandwich in Subway
During lunch hour, subway mmg selalu packed, pilihan lunch buat mereka yg mementingkan kesihatan. Chewah... but today.. 2 ladies in front of me kindly offered me to pass them so I don't have to wait that long. Aww.. no need to do that. Adakah my puppy eyes give me away? hehehe.

And so far byk lagi incident seperti people holding the lift for me, holding the door for me, quickly light off their cigarettes when I was around. What I can offer them is just my sweet smile and my grateful face. Thanks people for being so concern. Glad that our country still have people like them. And I hope that good karma will come knocking on your door.

My Little Miracle: 30 Weeks

2010-02-02T12:00:00.002+08:00

Dear readers,

Wow.. baby looks so cramped inside.. sian dia play space pun dah limited

Your baby's about 15.7 inches long now, and she weighs almost 3 pounds (like a head of cabbage). A pint and a half of amniotic fluid surrounds her, but that volume will decrease as she gets bigger and takes up more room in your uterus.

Her eyesight continues to develop, though it's not very keen; even after she's born, she'll keep her eyes closed for a good part of the day. When she does open them, she'll respond to changes in light but will have 20/400 vision — which means she can only make out objects a few inches from her face. (Normal adult vision is 20/20.)

Wah.. dah besar dah anak mommy ni. Memang dah start rasa kebesaran baby dalam perut, even with her slightest movement I can feel and see my tummy wiggling. Her hiccups pun I can feel ( ada small rhythmic movements at a constant rate) Sometimes, me and hubby will pegang area yang keras pastu teka which part, kepala ke, kaki ke,siku ke, bontot ke.

Masa checkup last weekend, igt boleh dapat 3D image, tapi baby was covering her face, and sucking her thumb. Isap jali ye baby! So we couldn't get a decent picture of her.. But, from the checkup mmg confirm la baby girl ni. hehe, mommy so excited! Baby is 1.4kg to date and head is down. Kedudukan placenta dan tali pusat tu so far looks OK, according to Doctor. Insya-Allah, the chances of normal birth tu is big. Alhamdulillah, itu yang di idam2kan. :)

Now, every morning and night time, i suka perdengarkan ayat suci Al-Quran kat baby, using App in Iphone. Its a very useful app, you can download whatever surah you like, siap ada tafsiran lagi, mommy suka baca, Nanti la I will review the app in next entry together with other apps i think useful for mom-to-bes.

* I have done my pre baby photoshoot with Armi, will upload pics sooonn.. :D
* Tahniah kepada Sha Pattinson !selesai sudah majlis2 anda, may your marriage be blessed! muah

Food entry

2010-01-29T20:44:00.001+08:00

Dear readers,

Anda pernah makan lobster? Secara ikhlasnya minggu lepas baru first time daku merasa makan lobster.And first time for baby in tummy too :) So agak teruja disitu.. hehe. Ayah belanja makan kat Victoria Station PJ. His favourite diner.. selalunya kalau ada special occasion je we'll go there, like birthdays.. tapi mungkin Ayah mengidam time tu, kami semua menuruti saja tanpa byk soal jawab.

These are my sisters. Sorang belajar lg, nak jadi chef, sorg lagi baru habis degree, tgh training kat UniKL. Dua dua masih single(Apa kena mengena?)Hujung sekali my brother tgh sibuk menelek menu.

This is what Along ordered, t's chicken something something. Lupa lah

This is well done black pepper steak, hub's portion of the night.. nowadays I'm not really into meats. More to fish and chicken for the soul(s)

Ini lah mangsa santapanku. Alive and kicking and looks yummy

Dan 20 min kemudian... Lobster grilled to perfection topped with cheese and served with chicken,jacket potato,corn and vegies. They served it in 2 plates since it has to be cut to half. I swear i could ate both plates tp takdelah tamak camtu kan. hehe

Ini pulak gambar bunga burung. Saja je letak, sebab first time tengok species ni. It's the in thing now to have it. Since my mom is really into gardening, she has quite a number of beautiful flowers around the house. Nantilah hobi berkebun tu akan kusemai juga, hopefully rumah baru nnt ada space for my mini garden.

Dear readers,

You know, to raise a child nowadays a lot of things needs to be taken into consideration .Before baby even arrive, byk barang2 baby yang nak kena sediakan. For instance (yang penting) baby cot, stroller, infant car seat, breastpumps, bottle strelizer, etc

Ada la sedikit tips dari yours truly dalam membeli barang2 baby ni. Ni pun diperturunkan dari kawan2. :)

Baby stroller- Kalau dapat beli yang 2 in 1: Infant car seat+ stroller lebih baik. Not only can save money, kalau baby tido, boleh transfer into the car / to the stroller without waking her up. On average harga ialah RM1000.My choice would be MaxiCosry, Pegprego and Vesta by Mothercare. :)

Baby cot- Sekarang ni macam2 ada. Ada yang prefer wooden cot. Lebih sturdy and secure, and will last for years. Ada yang jenis travel cot,like what my SIL bought for us- Graco (Thanks Kak Miezza ). It is 3 in 1: Baby cot + Playpen + changing table(yang boleh attach/detach) Love it! Average price RM700.

OK, on clothing, I am really into colourful, playful designs like those sold in mothercare. Now agak gila kan baby rompers. But Pejot did advise me to buy a few yg button at the front. Sebab senang sikit kan. And of course, beli a few yang size besar sikit, maybe for 3-6 months baby because babies grow real fast.

Look at these mittens and booties. The brown 'shoes' not really shoes tau, its socks tapi berbentuk kasut. My Mom bought it because its irresistable, katanya la..ehehe.. And i bought socks yang ada toys tu.. Encouraging baby to grab and touch their feet, juga stimulate the mind with colourful objects.

My baby's collection. :)

AND.. alhamdulillah, last week we picked up our new ride. :) Family car, besar sikit la dari Suzuki Swift tu. Boleh la nak muat kan stroller, baby seat, barang2 baby yg lain,barang2 mommy lagi hehe.

Kat dealer's place, before we picked up the car!

Bagi can la i posing kan, suami i je yg nk amek gambar mak buyung ni. hehe

On other note, I'm thinking of making another set of bunga pahar, proly kaler gold + hitam. But this is a project lepas bersalin nanti kot. Ada perancangan tapi tak tau kaler apa lagi. If you have other ideas let me know.

Ciao Miao

Review Antenatal Class- KPJ Shah Alam

2010-01-21T12:40:00.000+08:00

Dear readers,

Last Sat, we have successfully attended antenatal class held at KPJ. Dengan gigihnya kami berdua bangun awal di hari Sabtu since class starts at 9am. (Kantoi selalu bgn lambat time weekend, hhaha)

A day before that a very friendly nurse/staff called me to remind about the class. Also to remind I haven't make any payment to book the class. Hah.. yg ni makcik tak tau, igtkan bayar on the spot. Tkpelah, she said dtg awal sikit esok Tingkat 4, education dpmt.

Carik parking tak susah, tp jauh sikit la, since yg depan pintu dah penuh. Rupa2 nya KPJ ada plan nk buat renovation nak besarkan hospital. Jadik in a few months time akan ada face lift. Yang bestnya I dapat buggy ride from parking to the entrance, agaknya kesian tgk ibu mengandung kena menapak jauh. (Takdela jauh mana sebenarnya) but still, i took that ride. Good effort nak menyenangkan patient :)

First module starts with Introduction by Puan Faridah, followed by Care during pregnancy. Not much new information for me because I've read about this, but good to refresh my memory. Then we had break, they served us with Milo and kuih muih. Oh..Milo is really my fav right now. I can't live a day without 2 cups of Milo at least.

Mind you its really cold in the room, seb baik nurse dah awal2 warning bawak sweater.

Next is Pain relief during labour. Oh,this one I am really looking forward to, just to know what are my options. Pn Suraya the anaesthetist gave the talk, very pleasant woman :)

So what they offer is this (yang i igt lah)

*Pethidine or Meptazinol (types of drug injected into your body every 2 -4 hours)

*Laughing gas (inhale Nitrous Oxide)

*Epidural (Must be injected at your spine bone before 4cm dilation)

Well, my first choice would be natural birth without any drug aid. The laughing gas maybe nak sikit. hehe..The Anaesthetist said you should know your body well. I know my pain tolerance level is quite high but of course it would not be the same as labour pain. But, I will try my best because i want to feel as natural as it can get giving birth to my baby. Kalau tak tahan sgt, i will opt for epidural. But epidural is best given before 4cm dilation because after that the contraction starts getting more often that it is hard for anaesthetist to aim the needle.

Help me God, may I can get through the labor without much complication. Amiin.

Ready for epidural

And then Puan Faridah conducted the breastfeeding class. In KPJ they fully support breastfeeding. I learned how is the correct technique to latch, how to massage breast for milk production etc.

The important thing i learnt was sometimes your body still does not produce milk for up to 3 days after you gave birth. But its essential to make sure your baby is breastfed during the first 3 hours lepas bersalin tu. That is when the colostrum (susu awal ibu) is produced. Sgt2 penting untuk antibody baby to prepare her for her first journey outside of the womb.

I read somewhere that our body start producing colostrum when you reach 6th months of pregnancy. With correct massage technique, you can actually see it. True enough, balik2 je dari class i tried, and i can see the sticky and thick fluid came out of the nipple, takdelah byk just a few drops.. Perasaan agak touchy feely knowing that my body has started preparing for arrival of my baby. Berair gak mataku.

Sang bapa-to-be mencuba breastfeed with fake tits and fake baby. hehe

Oh, if you are planning to breastfeed, don't forget to buy the C shape pillow. Very useful to avoid backache and also for baby and mommy's comfort. :)

And then we had our lunch break. Lunch ialah lauk kari ayam, sayur kobis ngn ikan masak merah. Standard lah kan, hospital food. Tapi entah kenapa, licin je pinggan ku, mungkin kerana kelaparan dan kesejukan.

Next is process of labour. One of the panel doctor, Doctor Yin gave out the talk. Very exciting and byk information. Yang paling penting yang ku pelajari.. for first time mothers the usual rate for dilation (bukaan servik)

1cm= 1 hour

For full dilation of 10 cm means 10 jam la? What? That long..? But doctor Yin said, it depends on the baby's condition whether mommy needs to be induced (masuk air) so that the process is quicker.

And there is 3 stages of labour

*Dilation of cervic from 1cm- 10 cm (cuba amik pembaris pastu tgk size 10 cm.. takutnyeeee)
*Baby delivery
*Placcenta (uri) delivery

Pastu doctor akan jahit, which is called episiotomy.. OK for my information lagi, the most painful ordeal is contraction, this happens in the first stage of labour. The pain is very overwhelming, this is when women screaming for epidural even when they're not planning for it. Uhhh... *seram*

Ada jugak dia tunjuk slide show with very visual graphic during labour. The girl sits next to me even cried silently, either terharu dengan proses childbirth ataupun seriau nak melaluinya. Baby MM inside my tummy masa slot ni mmg tak dok diam, agaknya dia pun nervous time ni. Baby, don't worry.. we'll make it together ok, mommy will be there for you.. mommy promise.

Then, there is exercise during pregnancy, how to get up from bed/go to bed without straining the back. Tgk gambar je lah.. nak explain pjg2 dah malas, entry ni pun dah berjela2.

I'm a bit dissapointed they didn't go in detail about breathing techniques. I think that is very important. Hmm... maybe I can just read in the internet ataupun suh kwn2 yg experience ajar. :)

And then before we go back, Pn Faridah taught us how to bathe a baby, dan juga how to massage baby. They even give a DVD about baby massage. Its really helpful to calm the baby, make her at ease, senang tidor, buang angin.. and overall make her a happy baby.

This is puan faridah demo on how to bathe baby

I didn't cover about diet in pregnancy and care for newborn slots. Nanti lah kalau rajin boleh buat satu lagi entry.

Lastly, we did a tour of the labour room and also ward before we go back at 7pm.

I met a few mom to be's, sempat sembang2.. ada yg dah 9 bulan pregnant, tunggu masa je.. Interesting to share their experience..

Overall i think the class was conducted well.. I can't do a comparison since this is my first time attending such class. But if you want in details, boleh je email me, I'll be happy to share.

Till then, ciao..

Maternity ward kat Saudi yang super lavish

2010-01-15T13:33:00.006+08:00

Dear readers,

I got this email from Zairul a while back, with pictures of maternity ward kat Saudi. Tak tau la kalau hospital yg provide all this or the family make an effort to decorate the room. Either way, looking at these pictures really get me all excited.

Takdelah nak mengharap hospital ward nnt jd camni kan. Tipu.. berangan ada la sikit. hehe. But anyways, the decorations are good for those who are planning to do baby shower or birthday. *wink*

Mata ku bersinar-sinar tgk bende2 pink.

The botol susu container looks fun.. what's in there? candy for mommy?

Love the hanging mini baby clothes!

More candies, i always heart personalized stuff

Baloons at the entrance

Treats for guests. Saya nmpak cupcakes!

Ruang menunggu agaknyer ni.

Out of topic sikit..I never been to Prince Court, but i heard its mighty expensive to deliver there. Wonder what's the experience like staying in a 5 star hospital?

First Shots - Me in 27 Weeks

2010-01-12T20:40:00.009+08:00

Dear readers,

Yay! Finally got my hands on the new gadget! Bought Canon 450D at Digital Mall seksyen 14 and then spent whole last weekend mengkaji function2.

But a silly thing happened.. bleh tak tertinggal kad kredit kat kedai tu? And to make it sillier, baru noticed pagi tadi lepas 3 hari. Itu pun org kedai tu call my credit card company to inform about it. Thank God, there was no illegal transaction made during those 3 days. Nyanyuk sungguh mak buyung ni

Alang-alang cancel kan je lah card tu, so kurang la 1 kad hutang dalam purse. Nyeh nyeh

Pictures taken at Mama's house

And this is MM's pushchair/stroller. Courtesy of Tok Mama dia la..hehe thanks to Tok Mama and Tok Ayah. Mummy suka sgt stoller ni! Chis aku yg over

We also bought this cute battery operated fan, untuk Mummy kalau hari tgh panas. Kidding..

Trial shots focusing object yg berjaya.

Dalam bilik baby that will also be bilik berpantang saya.

I will be entering my third trimester next week. Wow! That fast already? A lot of plans waiting to be executed, I have my weekends scheduled for weddings (Tokya's,Akram's,Amy's and Sabby's on the list) checkups, childbirth class, kenduris, photoshoot (Can't wait for this! *wink*) and last minute shoppings. Wah.. this means more chances to practise shots.. hihi ..Bet it will all go by real fast !

Warkah untuk Anakku Part 2

2010-01-08T13:00:00.002+08:00

Dear MM,

Hari ni dah dekat 6 bulan MM kat dalam perut mommy. A lot of things are happening around us right now, baby.Mommy dah mula sakit2 pinggang masa tidur. Mommy baca dalam buku kata tulang pelvis dan pinggang mommy ni dah start terasa bebanan uterus yang semakin membesar. Apa benda tu? Nanti masa Form 4, belajar biology MM faham la OK. Kat Ofis pun sekarang Mommy bawak bantal letak kat belakang. Baru rasa selesa.

Sekarang ni Tok Mama ngan Tok Ayah tengah siap2 kan bilik MM kat rumah Shah Alam. Tok Mama tu excited dan tak sabar nak tunggu arrival MM. Kalau dia keluar shopping ada je barang dia belikan untuk baby. You are the first grandchild, great grand child and also great great grand child tau. Tok Mama cakap MM ni generasi kelima dlm family besar kita smpai mommy pun tak tau apa gelaran moyang mommy tu pada baby.

Mommy kesian gak nnt MM takde kawan bila balik kampung raya tahun ni kalau balik Ipoh, so harap2 Uncle Chor ngn Uncle Lop dah ada baby by that time :) ...tp kalau balik kampung Daddy ramai la kawan2 MM. Mommy nyer kawan2 pun ramai yang ada baby tahun ni. nanti MM ada kawan anak Aunty Pejot, Aunty Sasha, Aunty Tshee la, Aunty Zairul, Aunty Izad.. Pastu anak Aunty Nuurill tu hensem, Oman nama dia. Org nye pun kelakar. Dia besar sikit dari MM. Kalau kita beraya rumah Aunty Nuurill ngn Uncle Armi pau diorg duit raya byk2 tau....Hahah... Sorry baby, if Mommy makes you blush.

Mommy tak sabar-sabar nak tunggu esok. Sebab esok ada 2 benda exciting for me. First, I'm going for my monthly checkup. So we'll know for sure (Insya-Allah) whether you're a girl/boy. Pastu Mommy boleh la start shopping baju awak. Second thing is, Mommy won't reveal here. But Mommy and Daddy are planning to get us something. Biar lah dah confirm dapat kat tangan baru leh tulis. :)

OK, baby.. be good inside Mommy. Jangan tendang kuat2 sgt syg, kdg2 Mommy rasa cam kena elektrik shock pastu perut Mommy senget sikit. But maybe that's the only way you want to communicate with Mommy and Daddy. Takpe.. tendang la lagi, Mommy suka.

Love you baby

Mommy

DSLR for beginners

2010-01-05T15:18:00.004+08:00

Dear readers,

Sudah tiba masanya untuk shopping DSLR. Memang sudah lama niat di hati untuk memiliki satu tapi ada byk komitmen yang perlu diselesaikan dulu. Jadi sekaranglah masa yg sesuai to grab one.

Sebagai seorang rookie/amateur, saya sedar siapa diri ini. Kalau sembang pasal lense range ka, ISO ka, mmg nganga je la. Jadi, saya cuma mahukan camera yang mempunyai ciri2 berikut

Beginner level
Not too bulky
User friendly and easy handling
10 megapixel and above
Setelah baca kat forum2 dan laman sembang, I can safely conclude that these are the camera models that I'll be eyeing for.

Nikon D3000

Memang ramai la kawan2 yang recommend Nikon as compared to other brands. Agak allured to buy a Nikon camera and plus this model has a guide mode which is perfect for a newbie like me :) Harga around 2k plus accessories and lense.

Canon 450D

The reason why I like this model because of the price obviously. Since Canon no longer will produce this type, the price drops for almost 1k. It will be around RM2k plus accessories and lense. It has no video features, which is fine since I already have my Sony handycam to do the job.

Quality wise, both are equally the same I guess. I'm not really brand bias, it depends on how to handle the camera, so kena la test drive dulu kan.. tp suami pula mmg bias kat Canon. Jadik, better kalau kami pergi kedai camera dan pegang2, godek2 dulu camera2 ni bg puas hati.

OK, untuk tidak menjadikan entry kali ini terlalu geek, ni pulak gambar model pegang camera.
