Dear Baby...
I hope to teach u that beauty always comes first from who we are, on da inside. Appearance n da way we carry ourselves can never turn ugly faster than when we act ugly from da inside..Sometimes people won't like u. And that is okay....u will never please everyone, n until u learn this, u will waste a lot of time trying to fulfill an image u see to be true in someone else's eyes...I hope to teach u to never be ashamed of who u are..."Be who u are, n say what u feel...coz those who mind, don't matter, n those who matter, don't mind." One day I will teach u to write n speak beautiful words...Ones that come from ur heart, n in turn, touch other people's hearts in da process....I will teach u to never compare who u are, what u have, or how u look to anyone around u...To be kind, thoughtful, compassionate, n caring towards every one n thing u come across...Every ant, leaf, person or thought deserves da same respect u wish to attain for urself....We have so much love to give u sayang....n for now, we are getting used to saying "our daughter."i love u sayang...
LOTs OF LOVE,
mummy n papa

When we talk bout pregnancy,of coz,len orang,len alahan..lain rasa..lain size..lain pantang kan..coz..every pregnancy is unique..It varies between individuals n for da same individual..it may vary each time u conceive.I'd read a few mommies' experience,dgr org cite n some I can relate to... So here are mine…I only have 3 months before due date…hehe…kejap je rasa..so I'd better up da whole journey all in one go..check it out! Alhamdulillah, I would consider maself lucky as ma 1st trimester was very gentle on me…There was minor nausea, but I think I still okey nak bandingkan ngn mak dulu2..alahan sgt teruk smpai boleh makan apple hijau n burger saje..but I slipped easily into boredomla, I find everything membosankan!Buat semua benda tak kena as I don't feel right doing anything n I couldn't get things right when I do something...ade je yg xkena..mood pon swing,(sorry eh syg,mmg awal2 pregnant I sgt malas nk menggodek dan xlarat nk berjimba2..thanks to u sbb sgt2 faham..dan sgt2 byk membantu,thanks sbb kemas2 kan umah,masak n buat sume keje yg ptutnye i buat ,I tau..bukan sume lelaki boleh jadi suami mcm u..i love u naim!n luckily..2nd trimester is pretty heavenly..da selera sket even xmampu nk makan banyak..now I'm in the 3rd,it's all different journey (with da *comel* little us inside me)…now I sgt rajin nak kemas rumah,nak cantik2 kan umah,sgt2 xboleh duduk diam..suka masak n try mcm 2 recipe…hehehe…but da worst thing about 1st trimester until now was da fatigue…balik keje,lps mandi smyg,trus tido..sgtlah awal..sometimes nangis sbb lenguh2..mr husband pon risau..kesian beliau,sorry eh sbb cengeng..ehehe…I noticed I akan sakit badan/sendi bila tak bergerak...sengal2..so I have to move all da time,now,kat opis,bila petang je sakit pinggang sbb menghadap PC je dr pagi….time tido,katil mmg penuh dgn bantal..ahahah..haila..mcm2 kan..but I believe tat,mmg sume yg preggy msti ade msg2 pnya style :) now still da same..fatigue,cumanya..da boleh stay up sampai 12 mcm tu,layan movie sume…da boleh start mengaji n baca yassin,xmcm dlu..tengah smyg pon *bluekk bluekk..tp yg xbest..da 3rd trimester ni tengah sedap tido,tetiba cramp…uih,sakitnye sgt2 la xdpt nk cope..mr husband akan bangun,tlg urut slow2 until ok,kdg2 cepat,kdg2 lmbt,padahal,before pregnant xprnah kenal ape itu CRAMP..hohohoho…Doc kate sbb kurang calcium,kena banyakkan minum susu,so now I da start makan calcium (tablet) n calcium (yoghurt)..nak minum susu??oh noo…xdpt..even before ni aku juara minum susu,tp da preggy,ape jadi?? ><”Yg paling aku duk gila2 sekarang,air kelapa..fuhhh…hari2 naim akan belikan aku air kelapa..sedap,bagus jgk sbb dalam air kelapa pon ade calcium :)
Soklan paling common org tanye aku…bila mengandung ni..TIDO CAMNE?Act I simply can't sleep. Sometimes ngantuk gila tapi takleh lelap. sometimes I was so tired I slept as early as 9pm, tp terjaga midnite, dah takleh tido sampai pukul 3. Terjaga tapi tak larat nak buat apa2. Kot la boleh mengemas or do some laundry or ironing ke apa kan? Terkebil2 je atas katil sambil main BB,mase pregnant,earlier stage aku lansung xpandang Ipad ok..sgt malas nak menggodek nye,padahal,before dapat bukan men excited,now barula sebok godek2…. Haha…pasal mimpi2 pon boleh tahan mengarutnya. Rasa macam tidur bayi yang terganggu sbb bila pagi, malas bangun & cranky…hehehe.. :PMakan plak mcm mane?Menangis sebab sangat mengidam nak makan asam pedas n sambal belacan mak..apekan nasib,time tu mak pon balik kampong..xde kat umah :( cite pasal makan ni,1st trimester n 2nd trismester, I was so in love with fish…Bukan ikan dlm bentuk ikan, but more like laksa, sandwich tuna mcm tu..Dislikes chicken, loves meat & fruits!sangat susah sbb xleh bau n masuk even dengar or Nampak KFC,MCD,BURGER KING or sume yg sewaktu dgnnya sbb akan loya gila!malam2 xleh nak tapau makan kat luar sangat,so sangatlah bertuah sebab MR HUSBAND PANDAI MASAK,so beliau la yg masakkan setiap,thanks syg…erm..so far..awal2..I don't fancy anything sweet…But I can't resist carbonated drinks, before pregnant was not so into it..tp ni da masuk 3rd trismester..hehe,magnum icecream mcm nak hari2,now dlm fridge mmg ade choc icecream..sgt jatuh cinta dgn choc cake Dato’harun..pergh….melting~1st trimester until now jugak, whatever I drank, didn't go through my digestive system. Minum air, terus air tu masuk bladder. I had to go to the toilet every 5 minutes. Ok tipu. But it was more or less like that…hahaha,yelah..xboleh tahan kencing..nanti dpt urine effection.. :pBaju plak??? Since ma bump was not so big, I got to wear ma daily working sampai sekarang,da masuk 6bulanmak pesan..~belilah mengikut saiz yang sepatutnya - sbb u might not grow as big as u think u would..ngehh..now,I byk beli legging,sbb sluar sgt xslesa nk pakai yg biasa sbb I nye size before ni 26-27..lani xdptla..act baju pony g xs,s xdpt pakai jugk..unless yg stretchable..okey saje..smlm je baru dug out my closet, rupanya banyak baju cantik yang sesuai dipakai lagi... :)
erm,abes pasal baju,makan,alahan,bla bla..now pasal planning bot our newborn..its neva too soon to start rite ..lalala..xsabar nk shopping more for baby :) tp ape yg duk kitorang duk pikir2 skrg adalah pasal sape nak jaga baby??><'Should we hire a maid?Full time/ part time?
Is it necessary?Do we have any other options?Since i got to know that i'm pregnant, having a maid or ‘makcik yg boleh jaga baby’ is one of the major thing that occupies my mind.... how can we cope with a ..1. Resignhmmmm.... for some reason, some husbands/wifes prefer this option the best as the mother will always be the best caretaker of their children.... * the thought of me resigning is not an option... at least not now.. :) money is one thingla,sbb keje senang,gaji ade..keje plak bukan yg kena bawak balik umah,even nak kena pikir balik umah pn..... more important, i don't think i can live without working... :) without earning ma own money.... without having my own circle of life/ friends,budak2 opis,akak2 sume sangat2 la baik tau,mmg xmungkin aku brenti :) .... – 2. Mak jaga??Firstly, i need to say this... i'm blessed and grateful to have a MIL..who is very caring in a lot of ways... just like ma mum... :) so.. i'm not gonna take advantage of this...- Fact: No nenek in this world will say NO to jaga cucu... seriously... if we ask, definitely she'll say YES! ok, let's say we do send the baby to her... meaning by 9am, she will need to feed him, bath him, burp him and bla bla bla... until 6pm! everyday! i don't think i have a heart to let her do that... mcm xnak susahkan mak!plus,mak sngat active dgn projek kraftangan beliau..kalo ade cucu nanti bolehke die nak teruskan hobi menggodek2 bunga dan sebagainya?urmm…tp mak memang da offer dari awal,xnak cucu kena buli kat taska n org yg tak kenal jaga katenye..urm..mcm mane ni…3. Leave the baby at nursery - So many cases of baby died while in nursery! scarrrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!ni nak kena carik betul2..haila..untie depan umah plak non muslim,pon ade offer nak jaga..tp mmg a BIG NO la kan.. 4. Hire a maidSo many scary stories too... runaway maid and etc...- Mostly indonesian maid hor... hmm... how about Cambodian maid? not many horror stories yet hor...dear all.. please be informed that all the above facts/ thoughts are merely from me, myself and i... you are not obliged to follow... and those thoughts and decision are made to cater to ma needs.. ma situation... other people might not find ma solution is da best.. so feel free to explore ur own options... but think wise... with ur HEAD, not your HEART! *wink* don't be selfish and not to lenient either! if you have other suggestions/ opinions in mind... feel free to share as well... i think it would help a lot of new parents to be to cope with this situation....
another thing is....
Mama, Mummy, Umi, Ibu, Mak or What should I call maself to ma lil baby nnt? Hihihi...It sounds weird tho as I'm going to be a mom tak lama lagi... excitednye coz now ma turn to call maself those miracle words nie..if lani panggil mak,'mak' n MIL 'ma'husband dah start calling ourself as;me ---> mummyhusband ---> papa
i suke 'mummy'...It sounds like comelness je membahasakan diri mummy.. Like mcm manja2 gitu...And I like if my husband bahasakan diri dia papa!
.. So, it would be something like "Hi baby...mummy and papa tak sabar nak jumpa baby nanti.."hohoho..sungguh panjang entry kalini..lalala....I'd better continue in the next post..ekekek..
Dear Baby,Papa and mummy tak sabar nak tunggu baby.. We always chitchat how baby will look like.. more to papa,or mummy..hehehe..hihihi.. never mind.. take ur time.. we'll see u this January ok.. InsyaAllah...Love,mummy & papa :* mmuaahh!








There is always a first for everything, right? p/s:my husband..my first love...hehe..n this year is da first Ramadhan for me fasting and being pregnant at the same time...17 weeks and it is perfectly safe for me to fast, as per my doctor said. However, in the event that I am not up to it, I can always break fast...But I am trying to fast for as long as I can and for as many days as I can... But alhamdulillah, all is fine so far, except that i felt extremely sleepy during the day, which I think is normal regardless whether you are fasting or not…bahaha ..I was neither hungry nor thirsty. But still feeling nauseous and dizzy and having any other symptoms that require me to break fast….yah o know..i can't use the excuse of being pregnant to break fast ..but wut to do?alhamdulillah. however, so far, i've not performed terawih prayers yet as i will be short of breath, semput and i feel so uncomfortable after eating. i did not eat that much but every time i eat, i will feel breathless, thanks to my growing baby. Any position i sit is not comfortable. *sigh* i hope i will be able to go through this holy month without any problems and Insha’Allah, i hope to fast for the whole month. may this holy month of Ramadhan bring blessings to all of us and may all our prayers are answered by Allah swt.
Wondering what I’m talking about? Well I will tell you…
I am pregnant..n tomorrow is ma B-day...
Yep, it’s out there now..I am 5 weeks 3 days pregnant...I’m writing this ahead it’s on May 21..
So this is another way,actually getting to announce it, because it’s making me crazy not to tell anyone..ngehh..rase macam nak bagitau 1 dunia..
Hubby knows of course..I told him da same day I took da test, which came back positive in less than 10 seconds..then,call ma mak,huhu,1st mak xcaye..ekeke..mak da nak jadik nenek,yohooooo...mak aku suh p klinik dlu mcm mane skalipun then baru puas hati..tp mak aku plak cakap..pregnancy test tu mmg da 99% betul..so?hehehe..aku da nangis2 terharu gile time tu..nangis sambil gelak..apekah gile kan?naim da heboh 1 opis,da gtau kat ma mother in law..akak2 ipar..sume..wah..laju kan..excited nye beliau nak jadi papa ye..:),mummy pun excited tau..

so..urm,I am 5 weeks pregnant but what's happening in me? Right now, it's not outwardly obvious that I'm pregnant..da only physical change I can clearly see is... bigger boobies! Woohoo!HAHA! They're also a little sensitive, so Mr Papa has to be careful when hugging me…I'm also feeling more fatigued than usual..mengah..aku tataula ni mind set or wut..but da truth is mmg aku mcm cepat penat la..kat opis pun before aku check n da sah positive..esp si hanna,byk kali..dari naim baru balik dari PD die duk slalu ckp die pasan aku mcm swing..ehehe..so hanna,u kawen sekarang sbb u sangat pandai..ekeke..,pastu si Sharath, si ONYON…aka megan aka shasha..urm,si onyon dgn muka yg bersungguh-sungguh..kepelikan,tanye aku,okey x..okey x..napeni,nape ili..terharu kan..kan..kak nass..n si cik nen..sume nye pasan yang mcm ade yang xkena..

"iliey mengandung tu..die mengandung tu..* (masin mulut minah ni)~asyu
ade sorang kwn skola aku..si meen namenye..tetiba say hi kat chat fb,n tanye..ili,da pregnant eh?”
hebat kan dorang :)
happy sangat-sangat neh..but seriously,*I still can't believe da test came out positive.. I can't believe it because so many people told me they took a few tries to get it n this was our first proper try...So right now, I'm praying and hoping that da little one sticks around for da next 8-9 months!Alhamdulillah…syukur..semoga sumenye baik-baik aje..amin..doakan aku ye kawan2 sume..
so..ma whole world has changed…I'm suddenly aware that another life is dependent on me (dun worry baby,mummy jage baby betul2 tau)…n I've started making changes to ma diet,I've started eating more fruits (wasn't too keen on them before), I make sure I get ma daily dose of calcium, fresh fruits and veges…I drink lots of fluids and limit ma intake of tea and coffee…as per mak said..kena stop minum coke sume tu..makan yg berkhasiat je,jgn bagi perut kosong..sbb baby kena makan cukup,kak nass pun pesan..every month kena naik 1kg..woot woot..xpela,demi baby,aku xkisah jadik gemuk mane pun,janji nanti lepas deliver,pantang betul2..i adore u lyn...kalo ko tengok makcik ni,korang xkan caye da ade anak sorang..tau,slim gitu..tp mmg kena betul2 pantang..pantang sume okey.. :)thanks lyn..
so..lets cont..I know that at this stage da "baby" is still just an embryo n is about da size of an apple pip,(I can't eat apples now thinking about this!)~tipuje..ahaha...but I've started to visualize a happy n safe pregnancy, a safe labour and a healthy, happy child…I figured it's never too early to start bonding with da baby!wuthca say bila hati ni da berkobar-kobar gembira kan?hikhikhik..To ma wonderful family n friends,I want to extend a huge n heartfelt thank u..to u..yes u.. n ur prayers for me..Of all da things I have learned, is that I have a huge support network of people surrounding me...Thank u for ur concern, ur BBMs, ur emails, ur phone calls n just about a big hug for da support...
p/s:sangat-sangat terharu bila tengok husband,kawan-kawan baik menangis kegembiraan..sayang u all!!!
