...Already on Leave...

...Already on Leave...

Been quiet lately...The reason, TIRED!!!

Dearest friends out there, I had decided to start my maternity leave early by a week before my EDD. I really hope its a right decision as im not willing to take any risk. On Wednesday evening, after work, i took a cab from work to Northpoint to get something from Cold Storage. Hubby wasnt abe to fetch as he got to finish up his report. All of a sudden, i felt my body cold, starting from the tip of my nose. Apart form that my hips started to feel the pinch. From there decided to take a cab home.

I rested in my room and hubby was shocked to feel my body cold. I got up from bed, walked to the door of my mums room, and i almost fell as i was limping to bear the hip pain. Mum istifar sekuat tidak, yerlah i pun panic. Mum gosokkan minyak and it ease the pain. I couldnt sleep soundly and went to toilet almost every hour. Just make sure that i hold on to anything during walking. I didnt want to bother hub from his sleep as he sacrifices a lot and been getting less sleeps nowadays due to me "merengek" hahahah!!!

Woke him up in the morning, and he still pull his comforter over his body.

Me : "I will take my shower first"
Hubby : "U still going to work, in this kinda situation"
Me : "Yes, i will be going with sis like usual"
Hubby : " Ya, but once at ct hall u are all alone"
Me : (Just kept shut, i know hes worried)
Hubby : (Grabbed his towel and head to the toilet)

Prepared his breakfast and i decided to take urgent leave. But at the same time, i was telling myself, its not healthy to take urgent leave and mc/s. Hub suggested that i start my maternity leave. Have my rest and look forward for my labour. Its ok to start work earlier too, the main thing, me and bb are safe.

So here i am, at home, doing all the necessary preparations. I called my boss in the morning, explaining to him and i just hope he can understand.

Friends out there, do pray for me, for a smooth delivery. Will get u guys updated about my condition.

...39 weeks...

...39 weeks...

Now got the time to update!! Phew!!!! Was so damn busy since mrng. So busy comforting myself with bb movements as well. Kept making my tummy bulging in and out. Yesterdays appointment with gynae was ok. My gynae is just as me, very excited looking forward for the birth of this little boy. Another week had passed and im due to deliver anytime, as bb already engaged. My gynae was like..."OOiii. cepatnya"...but too bad next mon gonna be a public holiday, means she cant see me, so she fixed an appointment for me on my E.D.D. itself.

Told me, if by my E.D.D. i still have not give birth, its normal to go beyong 41+10 days. (Tertelan air liur ku hahaha!!!) Seriously i dun tink that i am able to go thru it coz, i really can feel tired oredi. Kalau boleh nak lahirkan dia sekarang jugak. But again my gynae has a feeling that i am able to experience it soon, as the way i explain to her about wat i experience, are good signs....Syukur Alhamdulillah if its gonna turn rite.

Nowadays to make myself go work also very super duper lazy. Last stage in pregnancy, flu and cough decided to give me a visit. Was so irritate by my throat, and blocked nose.

After appointment, went straight home. Mum as if knew that i wasnt well, she cooked, fishball (ikan tenggiri)..Yummie...Trus had my lunch, did my kewajipan, telan my ubats and trus to wonderland. I was really knocked out, and at ard 5pm mum said she wanna go out with sis and the kiddos. I was lazy in the first place, apa tak masih stoink!!! but then i decided to follow. Hubby stayed alone at home. So one of the reason, nak permudahkan process bersalin.

One by one, my friends dh start on maternity leave.....OOOOhhhh im so jealous u know....I still have 3.5 days to go b4 i say sayonara.....Lermak for 3 mths jer. Haiya!!!

...Ops!!!...

...Ops!!!...

Woke up in the morning, shocked to see brown discharge. It was a lot, panic, i talked to bb, make sure that hes ok, and alhamdulillah, he kicked me. Told hubby abt it and he suggested that i rest at home, told sis and she said if theres no pain, dun go hospital. Now i am at work :)

Mistake jugak coz my last chkup i didnt get to see my gynae so i wasnt aware if dah dilate. So now i got to wait got to wait for my next appointment on monday. They discharge still kuar but i dun feel any pain, so i guess steady jerlah, just make sure my bb moves, no blood discharge. Bila dah betul2 sakit baru leh gie hospital.

Only now the pain that i have is at my kelengkang, its like something terselit pat situ, must be bb's head, kept pushing down. Jalan pun dah macam cartoon.

...37 weeks....

...37 weeks...

Alhamdulillah managed to reach my 37 weeks of pregnancy. Roughly 2 more weeks to go before my E.D.D. Reached hospital at 9.30 (appointment at 9.20). Register, took bp, urine test and weight, within 2 weeks naik 1.3kg?? Hmm....Total dah 14+ kg gained. Returned from urine test, ada message, at gynaes door, "Out for surgery"....Alamak!!! Apa lagi, the staff nurse told us to go for breakfast first and wait for her call. I diverted my number to hubby's and pas makan, realised got 2 missed calls from my gynaes room. Apa tak suamiku ni, put silent. I quickly called back and was informed my gynae was there earlier but now dah back to OT. Give her ard 1/2 an hour. 45 mins past, sleepy dah!!! Then they doesnt wanna waste more time, see M.O. instead. I was like, M.O. nie lady or man?? I need to ask abt my piles....

Soon it was my turn, lucky it was a lady, but shes like a selenger. Why i said so?? I mention abt my piles coz i told my gynae and she wanna take a look at it, so she said :-

Doc : "U willing to let me take a look at your piles?"
Me : "Sure"
Doc :" Its just a small one, gotta eat more fruits and make sure stools are soft, may get worse after delivery"
Doc : "Any more questions u wanna ask, abt your pregnancy?"
Me : "Oh ya, sometimes i got this bursting feeling in my stomach"
Doc : "Bursting??" (Looked blurr)
Me : "Ya, its like balloons "pop" kinda sound"
Doc : "No lah, its actually baby kicking"
Me : (more blurr than her, so far of course i can differentiate the way my darling is kicking me)
Me : "Ok then"

The staff nurse was just smiling at me.

Out i went. Hubby was looking for me coz he needed to answer natures call while i was waiting for my turn. Ask me this and that, and i told him, u settle the rest, i nak gie toilet plak. So my next appointment in one week time.

Went to Marina, to settle CitiBank bills, then to Marina Square, fuyoh, kita mcm orang jakun, its totally revamp, sesat2 kat saner. Since i was too tired, decided to wait for the free shuttle service back to Ct Hall. I wanted to go Metro, buy my bb cot. Hahah!!! Dun get shock friends, cuma, that time we havent decided. Headed to Causeway Pt., it will be delivered in one week time. Really hope bb wont be out earlier than that. Mum was not agreeable that i buy things early, yalah i faham. Takperlah, nanti nenek and datuk dia nak sponsor hahah!! So once i deliver safely Insya'Allah, my mum said, she will get the rest of the things.

Takpelah, im not so eager to get the things yet, my eagerness is just to safely bring my baby to see the world and to hear his first cry.

I also have decided to start my leave on the 03rd May 2005. Means end of this month will be my last day. Hopefully i can make it, Insya'Allah...

...Waist....

...Waist...

Since ytdy evening, i got this pain ard my waist. It was so painful that i cant sit/stand properly. Another symptom is here. Even got difficulty to sleep. Hubby insisted that i go polyclinic. Woke up to get ready for work, hubby was reluctant to let me go work, tapi i told him, this might be my last sat working before maternity leave, so takperlah a little sacrifice is nothing. Ceh!! pekerja mithali.

Nolah, i just find that, i still wanna go work, though ada bits of uncomfort. Duduk rumah i will just find myself more tired coz my nieces and nephew love to have me ard. Rajin melayan. But now, dah slacken, kadang2 tu once reached home, i spent most of time in my room, lazing ard.

Tdy, got no plans yet, tot nak ajak hubby keluar, tapi tak sure if he agrees to the idea coz i told him that my waist still in pain. Hai!!! Apa nak buat eh?? Or i might just rest first then make myself down to Al'Maarif after Maghrib. At least dapat attend sekali for the Maulud this year would be great.

...False Alarm...But...

...False Alarm...But...

Ytdy's entry was like kanchiong mood hehehe, apa tak?? Ada benda terkeluar tak terperanjat beruk!!! After work smlm sempat met hubby at clementi, coz i just haven't decide whether to go to labour ward for checkup or not. The contraction pain tak rasa lagi, its just false alarm & only the other issue was bothering me. The moment i saw hubby, i told him, i tak nak gie lah, we just monitor.

Told mum, kena interrogate ler...Hehehe, kept asking me did i neran kuat2?....Seriously i never, alamat kalau susah, berejamlah i pat dlm bilik termengung...(sorry kalau putuskan selera) hahaha!!!

Decided to enquire with labour ward coz, it seemed that the issue made me lose my focus on everything, they told me it might be piles, most pregnant woman would experience it, and advise me if it doest hurt, and doesnt give me any discomfort, i should just leave it. If pains felt, i could visit my GP or make my way down to O&G tomorrow.

Upon hearing that i was quite relieved, at least there was assurance that it was not that serious.

Never mengeluh!!! Its part of the experience, and i find all these experiences beautiful, especially when u get special treatment and attention from ur loved ones.

To my husband, parents, sis, friends, sorry for making all of you alarm. I really appreciate your concerns. Muuahzzz

...Oh...O

...Oh...O

I got this urge to pass motion 2-3 times journey to toilet but, nothing comes out. Then while cleaning myself td, i felt some flesh underneath.. Wonder if its piles, but not painful.

Call the labour ward, to ask and they told me since its first child, go to labour ward and let the doctor check on me....Oh no!!..Well still monitoring, if the pain still persist, i will go after work. Harap2 tak de apa2.

...My Luck...

...My Luck...

Ytdy Evening :-

Biasalah i got to stand bila naik train at Paya Lebar, then at Kallang this school gal alighted. I moved forward, eh suddenly this young cinone woman yg baru naik frm Kallang trus duduk, buat muka bingit and played game on hp...I was like takpe lah, nanti kau pregnant baru kau tau!! Yang sebelah menyebelah biasalah, buat2 tidolah, tak nampaklah, bla..bla..bla..Then at lavender i managed to sit, then at City Hall, got this nyonya, naik and stood in front of cinone woman. She didnt even offer her seat, "Orang mcm nie pun masih idup pat dunia". I stood up and offer my seat to this nyonya. She hesitated but i said, "Takpe aunty, wa suda mau turun, lu duduk, nanti jatuh", i gave the woman and those near her a hard stare, but all these jerks got no perasaan, still muka bingai cum bongok.

This morning my perut mengulas, nak bangun pun susah, could feel the pain when i try to move and walk. Told hub, if the pain persist, then i might be taking U/L. He told me dun force myself if i really cant. Left home ard 7.50am and manage to board the 8.15am train. Sis kept asking ok that. I said ya cuma baby kept stretching and my stomach feels so tight.

Reached kallang then wait for bus. Saw the bus no 51 and i was alone to hail. This driver slowed down and went near the bus stop, but......he didnt stop man!!! EH?? If he didnt see me hailing, kenapa slow down. Dahlah semua orang at the bus stop get to see how stupid i looked. Dalam hati macam2 sumpah seranah dah ku keluarkan. Hehehe...Ya'ALLAH, ampunkanlah hambaMu ini, sesungguhnya aku tidak sengaja.

Apa lagi, i emailed SBS Transit the moment i reached work. Actually still pending one complain, tapi tak sampai seminggu, matter lum settle, he made me complain again.

I know its not healthy lah complain sana sini, sikit2 nak complain but he was damn rude. Adakah patut that day, i havent step on the bus steps, he moved the vehicle, walaupun slow, but the bus was still moving and after 1 step he pressed on the accelerator. Dia ingat nie pat M'sia ke, nak naik bus kena stunt2. Then at one bus stop, a Chinese lady (sexy you) wanted to board the bus, he could actually stop directly in front of her, and wait till she get seated before he moved off. How bias he is!!

If im not pregnant, neva mind, but in situation like this, i get this kinda experience, naik badi nak naik bus lagi.

Btw friends, wanna ask, labour pains must be accompany by brownish or blood discharge is it?? Im curious to know. Please email me, to share the experience. TQ.

...Ouch...

...Ouch...

After work yesterday went to Bishan, normal routine got to pay our reno loan at HSBC. Since was at that area, decided to go Seiyu for a while, setakat 'shopping tingkap' jer. Saw this pram selling at 139, whereas the identical one at kiddy palace cost 199. But only one colour available, its maroon/black. Not bad gak the colour. My sis helped me recce at raffles place and she saw orange/cream, that cost 199 before 20%. Hmm..now tgh stresskan kepala otak, cant decide on which one to buy. Then walked past the Body Shop, i saw this salesgirl, terjengkik-jengkik, terjengok-jengok pat my hubby, dlm hati eh buta ke, ada orang yg perut jln dulu sebelah dia, pimpin tangan some more...Apa lagi amik chance lah, nyakat hubby,

Me : "Eh tu kawan u ke?"
Hubby : "Bukanlah"
Me : "Kenapa tgk u mcm tu sekali?"
Hubby : "Ntah, tapi confirm kalau abg senyum, mesti cancel punyer"
Me : (Laughing sekuat tidak, everybody was looking at me).
Hubby : " Dah lamer seh tak dengar u ketawa gini kuat, ada rhythm plak tu"
Me : (Grab his arm trus jln, blow beb)

Yesterday night, i got this pain at that area again but this time, masya'allah, i really cant bear it. I cried and hub was alarm seeing me like that. Kept asking me, am i ok?? and i kept assuring him that im really ok. Kept on kumat kamit ayat kursi, alhamdulillah the pain went off after some time.

Woke up in the morning, made coffee for hub and get him the leftover bubur kacang(durian). Luckily i remembered to keep it in the fridge coz i knew this hubby of mine suka nah makan bubur kacang especially if it comes out directly from the fridge, makan dgn roti some more...(nie apa kes nie??) Lantaklah as long as he is happy, tgk dia makan i lagi happy. Nak jadikan dia papa bear...kwang..kwang...kwang...

For lunch i had mee hoon hongkong and now im starting to feel sleepy, in a while confirm K.O. I notice my appetite is increasing daily, mcm nie leh boyak, tat day dah kena warning dah...Apa peduli, as long as i know when to start work out, sure start punyer...Hehehe...As if!!!

...36 weeks - 9 months...

...36 weeks - 9 months...

Cant stop rubbing my eyes...Hahaha!!! Im already in my 36weeks today...Fast man. Next week gonna be my next appointment and my EDD soon. Alamak!!!

In fact im starting to get impatient, to have the first glimpse of my baby. Wonder how he would be, but im afraid of being over excited too. Insya'allah everything gonna be fine. Whateva it is, you are still Khalindah's baby. Its only at times i really hope to make it on 050505, its just a nice and unique date, but mcm terasa tak kesampaian. Asalkan selamat melahirkan and dilahirkan itu sudah mencukupi. Nothing more than that im asking for at this moment. After birth baru datang yg lain2.

Nowadays i get very sleepy especially after lunch. Then yesterday followed mum to market, hahah!! kan dah ckp pembawaan budak, suka i gie pasar, then reached home almost 1pm. Washed my feet, then "bum", hub saw me...

hub : "aik!! tido??"
me : "a'ah....lagipun i baca about pregnancy, at this stage, must take lotsa afternoon nap/rest, and practise breathing techniques"
hub : "oh tu mcm kah?"
me : (malas nak layan terus terbantut....tak tido pun)

half an hr later...after lunch, haik!! dia yg flat...ewah2....saper yg ngandung nie...."sratch my head"

...Restless...

...Restless...

Yesterday evening met hubby at clementi mrt station nak gie Sheng Siong. Initially tot of at Wdls Checkpt nyer but after much tots decided to just go Marsiling jer. Alighted from the train, i felt pain, at that sensitive area again, berdenyut denyut as if pins kept poking sesuka hati. Jalan pun dah mcm orang mabuk. Hubby told me to forget about our plan but i told him, takperlah since dah kat sini just go. Degilz & Kepala batu punya budak!!

Hey!! But my beloved baby was co-operative, the pain tak terasa pun biler tgh syiok2 shop. Pembawaan budak agaknya hehehe. Managed to get fishes, squids, veggies, etc. Sempat lak tu hub nak gie recce dia nyer work stuffs so i just sat one corner, tak kuasa nak membontot.

Reached home mum was surprised that i venture pai Sheng Siong, alah sekali sekala jer lagipun bayar niat dulu sebelum kena 'kurung'. Get dinner ready and immediately after eating rice, i continued with Oreo, hmmm..and went in to check on hub, member tgh brain storm nak kena abiskan project..."Kesian dia" Dah bosan pat bilik i went out and open the fridge *wink* *wink* i saw durian roll....Apa lagi, kebas ah hehehe....Makan sorang sambil berbual dgn mum. Went back to my room, i didnt realised that i slept for a while, and at 11.30, i complain to hub that im hungry and wana eat some fish crackers...Being sweet darling of mine, abg gorengkan keropok ikan for me....So touched!!! Yg i pulak made tea for us...Mum mesti fikiran 2 budak nie tak reti nak tido ke...

After that barulah tuan puteri buyong nie leh tido but....jeng..jeng...jeng...The pain came back, I was very restless and uneasy with the pains, kept giving Mr. Toilet a visit and yg kuar is just a drop or two. Alamak stress nyer...dah lah seksa nak bangun dari katil mcm nak nangis.

I woke up in the morning and realise hub was not ard, i force myself up and drag my leg outside, abg tgh makan sarapan, felt bad for not able to do it for him, he said that he doesnt want to disturb my sleep as hes aware of how difficult i was to make myself comfortable during sleeping. I rush for the toilet coz of a sudden i felt like vomitting and my head spinning, and he told me not to go work if my condition worsen. I monitor myself and knew that i could still work but told myself, just take my time hehehe...mcm ada share dgn tu company plak.

So now here i am at work but hip pains decided to give me a visit. I could not walk properly and feel so painful when i try to lift up my leg. One after another...are these signs of labour??

So Fast

So Fast

Was 10 mins late for my appointment...Hahaha..Tak pernah cik kak nie sampai awal...Tapi at least ok gak not so pack ytdy. Pai jer gie dptkan q no pas tu gie 7eleven. It wasnt tt long waiting for my turn only 3 persons before me so just grab a sandwich to alas perut...tapi bukan mak yong nie yg lapar tapi bapak budak hehehe...I kacau2 jer, minta sikit!!!

I told my gynae abt the excruciating pain that i felt the nite before, it was like pins poking underneath. She took a look and inform me as long as i dun feel sensational pains when trying to pass urine, its not seriuos though it swell. Baby's head dah quite low and thats y i could feel the pain as its engaged and getting ready for labour....So my next appointment in 2 weeks time - 37weeks....Yeah2....nak dekat tgk muka baby....All pains and serams aside...just cant wait to see my prince...Ya ya o....

It was raining heavily and the shuttle service was full with ppl, nak jalan tak larat, so took a cab to mrt station, then went straight to Sun Plaza. Time really flies fast, reached home ard 2.30, then just rest and helped hubby with his project. Naik kerror mata dia satu hari tgk pc.....Now he nows how tired my pair of eye gets after a day at work.

Mum and me was looking forward for the evening coz our new maid is coming. Sis got to fetched her alone as nobody can accompany her. First impression was ok, can see shes humble tapi too early to judge but i just hope its gonna be true. My little nieces was already getting close to her, bagus jugaklah kalau takut pun problem.

But the unhappy thing is that the last maid complained to my aunts maid abt working with us...Ewah2...But i just told mum, bagus jugak dia balik i dun really fancy her way of working...Sweet talk jer lebih. I know its not good talking abt ppl lagi2 time i pregnant, but there are so many things about her that i find not appropriate.

Kira2 dlm 3 weeks without maid in the house, made us do our own things bila dah datang, mcm terlupa pulak...Tapi takperlah, maner yg kita leh buat sendiri, we just do it, takkan nak berkira, penat gak seh kalau sorang kena buat semua benda.

Counting...

Counting

Today marks my beloved mum 47th bdae....Happy Birthday mama...Decided to surprise mum with cake and bouquet of flower that will be send to my aunts place coz my cousin is getting engage today. Really got no choice coz i was so confused of timings, so play safe just send there.

I will be on leave on monday for my 35weeks gynae appointment and a week after gonna start counting days pulak. Already start to feel pains, but for sure its just minor contractions. Seriously was asking myself..when is really the time to go labour ward!!! Haiyo...Coz sometimes i feel like *yak yak* but nothing comes out after spending a long time in the toilet. Takut salah neran lagi satu criter.

Ok i need to rush home, pity hubby got to clear the room all by himself dahlah tangan sakit still got to do it...But im lucky to marry hubby, he isnt calculative though he clears most of the time...But one thing, just leave him alone in the room and everything settle, just cook and make coffee for him....

To all have a great weekend.....
