3 more days to go... hehe

Breastfeeding

Some of my frens have been asking me on how am i doing with my milk stock... so far dah ade banyak ni aje...

Susu... susu....

That is after nearly 2 weeks I've started pumping to stockup my milk... Maybe to some people, pumping is easy... but for me, it takes so much of hardwork to stockup that amount... especially when I'm feeding her directly nowadays.. Ada sekali tu, I nearly cried when my milk was thrown away.. coz my MIL thot susu basi after few days... adehh.. pumping is soooo hard then suddenly, susu kena buang.. ishkk.. sape tak sedih... huhu... well, it's my fault after all not telling her upfront that breastmilk can last up to 3 months when stored in freezer.. 2 days when stored in referigerator... and 4 hours at room temperature...

Now, I managed to pump only about 5 Oz per day... that is twice a day.. hav to get up at about 5-6 a.m coz that's when I felt that I can pump the most.. and another time in the evening.. when Lya was sleeping... tu pun.. petang2 dapat 1 oz aje... coz she drinks almost every hour during the days... and her nenek and unyang kept asking me to campur2 with bottle milk coz takut susu tak cukup... hey.. I'm trying my best here to stockup as much as I can, okay... bagi le support.. ishhkk.. and I want to feed her nothing but my breastmilk... lagipun, every 3-4 days, I feed her with bottle milk jugak.. coz takut she refuses to take bottle milk langsung... anyhow, she never fails to drink from bottle.. dia nak aje...

Now I'm taking this milkmaid tea to increase my milk supply... sedap ooo... kalau letak ais ni mesti agi sedap... huhu.. bila nak abih 100 days nih... nak menom teh ais aaa....


And I'm trying to gather as much information as I can on bf... luckily I have Along and many friends who fully support exclusive bf.. So, most of the info I got from them... and from online reading materials..

Lya Qaisara

She's 41 days today... (hihi.. 3 ari lagi Mommy abis pantang... yey yey..) Few updates on her:

  • Dah pandai mintak bibik gendong... ishkk.. especially during the days... she'll sleep the most, 1 hour kalau letak atas tilam dia.. but kalau gendong.. berjam2.... or kena pangku je.. adehh... cemane eh? kalau letak, sure menjerit... huhu... any tips, anybody? Kena buai jugak le nih... I tried not to use buai.. but kalau dia buat perangai cemni... sapa larat gendong dia lama2... ish ish... Lya... Lya..
  • Responses if people agah dia... and pandai sebut "goo... goo"...
  • suke mengiring... especially when we remove her pillow....
  • melts my heart with her smiles ..... sejuk hati, ilang penat bile tengok dia senyum.....
Alemak.. blurr la pulak gambo nih... daddy... new camera please....? hehe

Budak bulat... berkat susu ibu... kekek....

Okay.. that's all for today... to all my blog readers (chewwah.. like I have so many...) bear with me.. coz I'm gonna update on my lil dotter as much as possible.. nak bagi daddy dia baca gak...

Cian Lya......

Today was the 4th time I went out during this confinement period.. hua hua... punye le boring eh... 1st time, me and hubby went to One Utama for shopping.... hahaa... ni la ropenye kalau dah mmg kaki shopping and kaki window shopping... keluar jugak eventhough masa dlm pantang... with bengkung and sox, okeh... that was, after kena bebel ngan MIL la jugak kan.. and I didnt even tell my mom that I went out for shopping... hehe.. ye laa..at that time hubby dah nak balik Japan.. bile lagi nak gi spend time kuar ngan dia...

The 2nd time, we went to Kelana Seafood.. since my SIL wanted to belanje the whole family.. so, we brought Lya along.... at that time she was only 3 weeks old.. hehe...

Then, we hangkut Lya pegi airport jugak... to send her Daddy off to Japan... hehe.. kecik2 dah gi KLIA...

Then today.. brought Lya to see paed, Dr Fadzillah at DEMC... and my post natal checkup.. time flies soo fast.. I didnt realize that one month has passed and the last time I went to DEMC was when I gave birth to Lya.. huhu.. rasa sakit tu pun still I can remember..

Anyhow... doctor said, Lya sehat... Alhamdulillah... her weight increased to 4.4kg now... ahak.. dah berat anak Mommy... masa checkup ngan doctor, she was like an angel.. baik je bile doctor check dia.. (surprisingly.. hehe.. ) but masa injection, dia menjerit (with very high pitch voice woo... huhu...) tapi kejap aje.. 2-3 saat centu..then dia senyap.. Good girl, Lya...

Ni muke suspense b4 amik injection....


Lya kena cocok.. Sakit ckit je.. cam kena gigit semut...

Happy New Year 2008....

It has been 19 days since I safely delivered Lya Qaisara... and she has been mommy's and daddy's good girl... Here's some updates....

Lya Qaisara

Now, Lya dah pandai nak borak2... every morning, after taking her bath.. she'll refuse to sleep.. she could stay awake until 1:00 to 2:00pm.. bukak mata besar2, asking everybody to layan her beborak.... if left alone.. meaning takde org layan, she'll cry...
Anak Mommy tgh sedap tidoo....

Majlis kenduri akikah and cukur jambul Lya were held on 1st Jan 2008... Alhamdulillah, evrything went well... and sepanjang majlis cukur tu, Lya tido aje... hehe... sebaik tak melalak masa tu..

Happy faces.... Lya Qaisara with her beloved Daddy, Mommy.. Opah and Nenek.... Kat blakang tu auntie Apin interprem...


Penuh bunga rampai atas badan dia.. huhu.....

Breastfeed

Lya kuat sgt menom susu... it'll take about 1/2 hr to 1 hr to bf her at one particular time.. sometimes, tak cukup jugak.. and I hav to top up with bottle milk.. sian dia lapar... Maybe I should take supplement to increase my breast milk... now, dah start perah susu to stock up kat dlm fridge... skarang ni, sekali perah, dapat la 4 oz.. still tak byk.. guess bf isnt as easy as it looks.. took a lot of hard work... luckily I hav Along who exclusively bf her children, though she's working.... byk tanye along aje tips2 on bf..

Confinement

I'm starting to get really really really bored with the confinement period.... dah la makanan tak de byk choice... let say, tghari tu mkn ikan pindang... sampai ke malam laa masak pindang tuh... adeh... kalau hari2 centu, sapa tak boring... I dont mind makan rebus2 nih.. tak mkn menda2 goreng and minyak2 tu takpe.. but the same things for 44 days??.. adehh.....

plus i hav to wear the bengkung every day and night (punye la susah nak begerak lepas pakai bengkung..) plus param and pilis sume (bau sket punye tak best...) plus socks 24 hrs a day (makes my feet itchy, ok......) Jalan Laju2 tak boleh.. turun tangga pun tak bleh.... tido pun kena stret mcm kayu... abih tu, bleh jadik gile gak cemnih.. cepat2 laa abih pantang....
