Halo people...

It has been a while... lately I was too busy.. and dont hav much time to blog.. (or am i the one who do not make the time for blogging?) it's just that i dont usually blog at the office, and at home, my lil lovey dovey, Lya Qaisara is getting bossier than ever.... but actually, i just love being bossed by her.. haha...

few updates...

Angah...

29th March, Angah got engaged... (finally...) I went back to my hometown in Taiping.. and went to Sg Dua, where the ceremony took place... since his fiance's still studying, they plan to get engaged for about one and a half year.. (iskk lama nye...)

Our side gave 9 dulangs (includes sejadah, baju nikahtelekung, cincin risik, cincin tunang, etc..) and Liyana (Angah's fiance) side gave back 11 dulangs... (comprises cake, some sweets, chocolate, fruits... ghee..lupa dah.... tu laa.. sapa suruh lama tak update blog... haha...) I gave Angah a cake, as one of the hantarans....

lawa kan kek tu,kan, kan...?

along tgh sarung cincin... haha.. blurred photo.. since Lya was on my lap when i took this photo..

Lya was okay in the beginning of the ceremony, but towards the end, she was a lil bit cranky.. and when i checked.. she pooped...! kui kui.... maka, terpaksa la haku buat mcm rumah sendirik, pegi basuh berak dia kat one of the rooms in the house.. Anyhow, since i was too bz entertaining si kecik nih, i dont even hav one photo with Angah's fiance... ngeeee...

Ni lah muke budak jepun baru lepas u' ukk..

Work

Nothin much to update, really... my job's getting more and more busy lately, and i'm tryin to adjust with my workload...(but still aku balik kul 6pm, paling lambat pun, okeh... kekeke) but hopefully i wont be assigned out of town at the moment... not in the near future.. last month i was out of office twice in 2 weeks...! Bintulu trip was boring... well... its bintulu.. what do u expect... it became worst when both my flights.. to and fro was delayed.. more than an hour.. isshkk... think Malaysia airlines should improve their services, okeh... betape busannye aku jadik pak pacak kat airport tu...

Singapore trip was okay.. it was my 2nd time to Singapore actually, but i didnt even have the chance to go to the medilion... anyhow, i managed to ran down to Hard rock cafe singapore to buy few HRC tshirts.. and went walking alone at the orchard road during the nights, didnt snap any photo coz it was raining...

its appraisal time, this month, but since i'm not working for the last financial year, aku rilek aje, while everybody else busy preparing their SEP.... huhu.. this year takde la bonus utk kuuu... isskk...

Lya Qaisara

She's 4 months and 2nd week now...haihhh... cepatnye anak mommy membesar...last 3 weeks during her 3rd month jab, her weight was 5.85kg... few updates on her milestone :

• she's an attention seeker... that explains why i dont hav much time to blog lately... she'll cry whenever she sees nobody around her....
  
• easily distracted during feeding time... she'll stop drinking her milk if she hears any noise or anybody passes by.... end up, i hav to feed her, quietly in our room, so that she gives full concentration while taking her meals.
• she loves to hold up her cute lil arms and play with her cute lil hands and cute tiny fingers, and... did i mention she's cute..? maybe she just discovered that she has hands... hihi...
  

everything on her is tiny and cute.....

• suke main air liur and sembur2... ishkkk... abih basah lenjun baju dia..
  

Anak mommy menyembur2....

• dah meniarap...! yeay....!

cubaan kali ke-3....

Situ Sana Sini....

Hi people...

Udah lama aku tak membelog..... Well... Hav been quite bz at the moment.. last week had a 2 days course at Sheraton Subang... Tomorrow, I'll be flyin to Bintulu for 2 days... Will go onboard Puteri Delima... huhu.. (lama sudah aku tak naik kapal... ) And next week I'll be goin to Singapore for a 2 day course... ish.. Last time, travelling was really fun , since you could step out of the office to enjoy a lil bit different environment from the routine tasks.... but now.. a trip for only 2 days, feels like tooooo long 4 me... I know that I'm gonna miss my lil baby soooo much.... Guess this is what every working mom will face.. A dilemma between career and family... 4 me, if given the chance, I'd choose to spend as much time as I can with Lya.... Even goin to the office everyday, I could hardly wait to go back home to hold her....

Anyhow.. here's few updates on what we did during th weekend :

Election...

For the first time in my life, haku pegi mengundi... hahaaa.... At first, I was too lazy to go.. but at about 3pm, then only i decided.. what the heck.. if i dont vote today, I would hav to wait for another 4-5 years... Weheww.. masa tu I'll be... 34? 35?? Baru nak 1st time mengundi? oh, tidak.... so, I brought Lya along.. went all the way to Bangi just for a 5 minutes job... hahaa.. salah hakuu.. sape suh tak tukar address.... I registered with SPR, back when I was studying in Uniten.. which is near to Bangi lah kan... anyways.. Bangi, PAS yg menang... huhu... and dont ask which party I voted coz undi adalah rahsia.. kekeke...

Muhd Jazlan Zaeem...

After that, we went to Alamanda to shop for newborn gifts for Lya's 2nd cousin... I didnt know what to buy, since Johan and Zura seems like had everything ready for their lil prince... So, just bought a thermometer since they havent bought one.. hihi.. penting wooo mende nih...

hihi.. mohd boboy...

Yeay! Lya dah ade geng...

My MIL bought a newborn shoes and ball for boboy.. Blue in colour.... comei sangat... end up, Lya got her first shoes too..... Tapi bukan haku yg belikan... her Uncle Apit yg beli... tengkiyu angkengg... (Lya panggil uncle dia "angkeng") Nnt Lya bleh join angkeng men futsal... hihi...

Lya's first shoes...

As usual, if Lya got anything new, she'll be sooo excited... we put on her shoes, saiz besar ckit aje.. and she looked sooo happy... tersengih2 aje.. and in the car, she kept on angkat2 kaki dia.. and stared at her new shoes dengan muke pelik2....

Sampai tertido makcik nih....

Baby giant..

At the hospital, I put Lya in Zaeem's cot... huahuaa... dah tak muat dah baby cot tuh.. tapi dia telebih excited duduk dalam tuh... asik tersengih2 ajek...

Kena cucuk agii....

Today we went to DEMC.. again.... for 2nd month jab for Lya... She has been mommy's brave gurl... tak nangis pun.... her weight is 5.1kg now.. and height 61cm...

err..mommy... where 're we goin...?

whats up doc....?

Ni muke dia kat dlm keta, after the injection... dunno why, dia asik tersengih2 jek cemni.... gambo blurr sebab dia tak reti diam....

Takde tajuk...

It has been nearly 2 weeks since I last blogged.. It's not that i hav nothin to blog, it's just that i'm in nooooo mood at all to write... Guess the lazy sindrome has strucked... Just few updates :

Back to work...!

As u all know,I've been on my 1 year unpaid leave, but on 15th feb, my leave ended... Gee.. time flies soooo fast... Seem's like yesterday I said goodbye to my colleagues b4 i went off to Japan... so last friday, had to report to my new boss.. since the company policy doesnt allow husband & wife to stay in 1 department.. (huhu.. aku pulak yg kena halau dpd department...) so I hav to move to other department, which is just next to my last department... So, guess I still see the same faces everyday since my new deparment still on the same floor, jiran aje..... To my surprise, lots of people, some of them I barely talked to, were asking when did I come back from Japan (wahh.. fofular jugak aku ni rupenye...)... and some of them were asking how's my baby... and some even asked whether i've got pregnant yet (hehe...)... and when i answered i've just delivered Lya 2 months ago, they gave me these gestures:

"eh.. tak berubah pun..."
"sama jek mcm b4 bersalin..."
"tak mcm org baru lepas beranak pun..."
Which really lit up my day... hehe... its either i hav gained my original shape b4 i got pregnant... or i'm already fat b4 i even got pregnant... haha....

Anyway, it felt so good to be back at work again.. feeling both fresh and blurred at the same time.. hahaa.. fresh to start my new work.. and blurred on my jobscope after given speech from my new boss (huhu... ape laaa yg bos aku ckp nih...)

Ex-housemates + boney gathering.....

After planning for sooo long... at last, we succeeded to organize our first ever gathering.. Everybody managed to come with lots of food... for details, see Neny's blog.. hehe.. (see... told ya I'm in lazy mood...) Anyhow, I faced lots of challenge to bring Lya to the gathering, since my MIL doesnt seem too happy to allow me to drive alone with Lya... At first she wanted to come along, then, she had this kenduri, so, she cant... then she asked bibik to follow me.. but I said its okay... I can manage.. ( I think!) Bibik is supposed to be on leave every Sunday, anyway... Then, she asked my SIL to accompany me to Mis's house... adehh... Its not that I dont like any of them to come along.. but I think I CAN drive alone.. and I HAV to try anyway... dont wanna be such a troublesome to them, whenever I wanted to bring Lya to anywhere, somebody had to be the chauffer ke?... adeh.. hopefully things will get better as Lya grows a lil bit older.. (she's only 2 months old by the way...) Hopefully I can gain trusts from people around me to take Lya anywhere I can without anybody accompanying me.... hmm...

Cupcakes atot... yummehh..

The girls and babies..

Anyway, its good to finally meet my exhousemates, Boney and their families... really hope that we can do this more frequent, yea!

Lya Qaisara

I'm 100% adorable...!! ngeh ngehh...

She's already two months old, and this Saturday, we'll visit DEMC again for her 2nd month jab.... Few updates on her :

She "talks" more frequent than before, and starting to raise her voice... dah bising dah rumah if she's awake... but of course, somebody has to entertain her all the time....

Gets attracted to her toys and started to get focused to them... looked both confused and fascinated simultaneously when I put her on her play bouncer or her playgym. Sometimes, sampai berkerut2 dahi when she looks at her toys (as if thinking.. ape menda laa nie...?)

Sukeee sangat main air liur..... sampai basah2 baju... I think i got all the things that i craved for, when i was pregnant back in Japan last time... (huh, sampai durian 100 hengget sebijik tu pun dear hubby belikan, okeh... mengidam punye pasal) nape ek, dia suke jugak men air liur? She's like, drooling all the time when she's awake...!

She's a short sleeper during the day.. but can stretch her sleep up to 5 hrs during the night... (baik, anak mommy... taknak kacau mommy tido mlm2) Now, I had to wake her up) if dia tido lagi la...) at 5-6 a.m before i go to work, to breastfeed her... but she goes back to sleep until about 10:00a.m...then only takes her bath...

Suke mandi... bath time with Lya is really fun...! So i take the opportunity whenever I'm at home to give her bath.. she smiles when I put her into her bathtub..senyum2 aje dia.. and likes jerk her arms and push her legs in the water... sometimes, bleh slip kalau tak pegang dia bebetul..!

Responses with "uuu..." and "aaaa...." sound whenever i sing Barney song to her... hihi.. comei sgt...

Getting chubbier and chubbier each day.. I can barely see her neck..! covered by her cheek yg dah tembam tuu.... syok peluk2 dia mcm teddy bear....

3. Walaupun aku suke naik gunung, aku ni ekceli penakut... tambah2 kalau bab tgk citer hantu.. kui kui.. kalau nengok, slalunye tutup sbelah mata... tu pun kena ade org teman aku tgk... Aku tgk citer "Jgn pandang belakang" tu je, terbayang2 hantu dia dlm sminggu...
4. The main reason aku amik A-level dulu, nak pegi UK ialah sebab kakak aku gi UK... kekeke.. centu laa aku jawab masa interview JPA dulu.. kui kui... sebaik dapat... dapat JPA je laa... gi UK nye tak dapat pun... keke...

6. Hobi aku tengok hujan... especially kalu ujan tgh lebat gile.... ala2 jiwang laa gitu... penah skali masa form 4 kat asrama, tgh ujan lebat gile.. aku pun kuar dorm.. nak temenung tgk ujan... sedar2 bumbung blok depan asrama aku melayang... (sebaik tak melayang kena aku...) hua huaa.... rupenye tgh ribut.. huhu.. abih aku kena marah ngan bebudak dorm, tarik aku masuk dorm...

From Taiping with love....

Nearly one week since i'm back in taiping... huhu... after one year i went off to Japan... now i came back to my birthplace.... missed the cool weather and the calm atmospehere in Taiping... though, some people might say that this place is too quiet, (or in other word, boring town..) it's okay.. at least i can find peace here.. away from KL hectic life and busy traffics... to date, Giant and Tesco are already here in Taiping.. haha.. kire dasat laa for a small town.. (i've been to Giant, but Tesco blum agi..)

Nearly every evening rained here.. Hujan mencurah2, but the heat, still i cant stand... the fans are on 24 hours a day... Guess that's why Lya was down with fever last two days....

Cian dia.. demam2 pun kena snap photo jugak...

Her highest temperature when I checked her at home was 37.9 degrees, but i didnt want to risk anything, so brought her to see the doctor... doctor tak buat ape pun lagik, just took her temperature but she's already screaming ala2 budak kena dera....until the doctor had to wait for her to finish cryin for one round, than checked her heartbeat.. again.. she was screaming macam kena cubit... and again, doctor had to wait for another round, then only checked her tummy... haiyooott... sapa ajar anak mommy jerit cemtu... Went back home, and forced her to take the medicne, but she didnt only keluarkan balik ubat tu.. dia sembur2 ala2 air pancut kuar dari mulut dia.... adehh... hav to polish up my skill on giving the medicine...

Arini Lya dah cehat......

Lya dah cehat le... takmo makan ubat agii... tak cedapp...

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...

Me, I want a hoola hoop...

lagu fevret Lya... keke... err... or is it her Mommy's...? hihi... enjoy yea... replace "Christmas" with "Raya"...... I wanted to see the movie.. but was still in this boring confinement period... ish ish....

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 One Month Old, Lya...

It's been more than one week since I last blog.. and it has been more than one week jugak le, Daddy Lya went back to Japan... oh well...

Yesterday was baby Lya's one month birthday.. Happy birthday sweet Lya... hehe.. She has been Mommy's good girl.. knowing that her Daddy no longer here.. huhu...

Nothing much to update, actually... still going thru the same tiring routine of this confinement period... Counting the days till merdeka day.. no more bengkung2, param, pilis, socks... Ghee.. cant wait.. 11 more days to go...*sigh*

Hi Daddy... Lya dah besar woo...

Hua hua.. miss ya, Daddy...

Happy Birthday to me...

Huhu last Saturday was my 30th birthday.... mak aii.. pangkal dah tukar jadik 3.... iskk.. anyhow.. this year's birthday was the most meaningful since I felt that my life dah complete... with dear hubby.. and si kecik Lya... hehe...

Thanx dear for the wonderful gift.....

Lusa Deboo dah balik Japan... :((

Gonna miss u a lotttt....... :(( Takpe lah.. ade rezeki, Mommy and Lya nnt gi visit Daddy kat Japan, okeh...

Takde mood pun nak blogging dah....

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....

12th day....

Today is supposed to be Lya Qaisara's due date... huhu.. tapi dia dah 12 hari keluar..... alhamdulillah, everything went well. although being a mommy is a very challenging task, tapi Lya budak baik... tak meragam... She'll just cry when she's hungry.. and goes back to sleep when she's full...

The first week was quite tough... since I was still weak.. with the pain from the stitches.. ( 7 stitches tau..! iskk.... sakitt... ) and Lya still didnt know how to properly latch on my breast... Or I am the one who do not know how to breastfeed her... end up, my breast swollen.. Sakit gile...! even sentuh pun sakit... Not to mention pusing kiri kanan masa tido, pun sakit gile.. coz, susu byk, but they just couldnt come out... huhu.... Last2 kena bagi susu botol.... with hubby jadik tukang bancuh susu malam2....

Luckily the 3rd day, midwives from DEMC came to see the me and the baby.... so, Kak Seri tolong urut... and tuam... and managed to squeeze 1 Oz of milk out of my breast.... lega sket aje.. sakit nye masa dia massage, tuhan aje yg tau.... until I cried..! huhu... but she adviced to continuously massage and tuam, whenever I felt my breast full with milk.. and I did...

Today, it has been 4 days I managed to breastfeed Lya fully.. (yeayy....!!)

Ni muka lambat bagi susu...

Ni muka baru lepas mandi.. gggg.....

The arrival of Lya Qaisara....

It has been more than 1 week since I last blogged... So bz, okeh... Bz with year end shopping spree for all da baby stuffs...

And finally.. 16 December 2006.. I have safely delivered our lil princess... exactly one year after our marriage.. hehe.. dia nak jugak keluar time our very 1st anniversary... Anyhow... here's the chronology... hehe..

16 December 2007

6:15 a.m- First contraction... Ghee.. I didnt even know that it was the contraction pain.. sakit sikit2 aje... macam period pain tu....

7:00 a.m - another contraction..

7:30 a.m - and another... and they became closer until it was 15 minutes apart between 2 contractions...

8:00 a.m - Went downstairs for breakfast.. and told MIL that I'm feelin quite uncomfortable with "period pain" every 15 minutes.... sempat la makan mee goreng and karipap sikit...

9:00 a.m - Hubby kata, jom aje lah gi DEMC.. in case it's time..

10:00 a.m - Arrive DEMC... waited for the nurse and doctors punye la lama.. since they are attending another patient who was at that time "screaming" in the labour room... ishkk.. really scares me off, okeh...

about 10:30 a.m - Doctor attended me.. and said that I've already 3 cm dilated.. (erk... really? thot of going for final shopping at One Utama tadi.. kalau takde ape2... haha... tak sempat dah...)

11:00 a.m - Transferred the labour room.... and the nurse broke my water bag... huk.. panas je air keluar....and the struggling began... the duration between 2 contractions became closer, and the pain became stronger... sakit sangat... sempat nurse tanye.. nak epidural tak... err... I think I can handle the pain, okeh... but it was far far worse than I ever thought it could be.... and I never wanted hubby to let go off my hand.. not even one second... sian dia... nak pegi pee pun I didnt let him go...

1:00 p.m - already 9cm dilated... the contractions getting stronger... sakit sangat, okeh.. huk. tak penah rasa sakit cemni... I dont think I can go thru without hubby beside me.... Thank you soooo much dear for being there.... and sorry for marah2 masa sakit.. and squeezing your hand soooo hard masa tahan sakit contraction...

1:15 p.m - Lya Qaisara finally delivered... weighed 3.1kg... exactly masa azan zohor from masjid shah alam berkumandang... Alhamdulillah....

Lya Qaisara ... few minutes after delivered... sejuk sangat dia...

Us... just b4 going home from DEMC.. daddy with his new specs.. hehe.. and mommy with the tired look.. huhu... penat gile..

Lya Qaisara - 4 days old.. hihi... sedap je dia tido...

36 weeks....

Had another checkup today @ DEMC... Baby already grew to 3kg..! Anyhow, doctor said that her position now is face-up or "mendongak", or in medical term, it is called "Occiput Posterior".... not a very good position for easy labour.... but the doctor did advice not to worry, becoz she can still rotate.... but frankly speaking, I'm still worried... isk... even normal labour scares me off.. ni kan pulak position pelik2 cemni.... no wonder I felt that the shape of my belly a lil bit "weird" these few days....

Nway, did some reasearch on it, and tried to better understand it, and found out that normal labour can still happen.. and the doctor was right.... baby CAN still rotate maybe during labour, or earlier... see what happens on next week checkup... just pray for me that everything will go smoothly.... hopefully............

36 weeks... she's already 3.1kg...!

Anyways, went to Plaza Masalam after the checkup to meet Ina.... she wanted to passed her wedding invitation... but I really regret that I might not make it coz the timing is too close to my due date... .... (dah la dia jadik my pengapit masa my wedding dulu ... isk.. rasa guilty sgt...) Nhow.. I do hope that she'll have a wonderful nikah ceremony and kenduri... and wish her a beautiful life ahead...

Afer that, pergi survey baby cot/playpen and cot bedding for the baby... end up, terbeli bedding set for the mommy pulak... kekeke.... but they were sooo sweet.. ada flower2.. keke.. (Dear hubby mesti tak suke.. sbb bunga2.. haha.. ) I just cant resist when it comes to home deco or bedding set... Sorry, baby.. we'll shop till drop for your stuffs when daddy's back, okeh...

Mommy's new comforter set...! keke...

9 months..

Me with my 9 months belly.... :))

But pls dont tell daddy I cried...

Durian...

Since I came back from Japan, I've been craving for durian, but since now is not durian season, carik kat mana2 pun tak dapat... but just now, at pasar malam here, at last, jumpe la jugak.... after about 3 weeks baru dapat..! I ate, but not too much coz takut my fever and cough come back.. (huhu... tak sanggup....) So sedap okeh, but its not the same as when i enjoyed a 3000 yen durian when I was back in Nagasaki.... The sweetest memory ever..! dapat makan durian nearly rm100 sebijik @ Japan with dear hubby... masa makan kat sini, sayu je rasa... bile teringat.. @ dis hour he's still @ kapal... makan ke.. tak makan ke...

This few days, baby tendang kuat sangat... mebi dia pun miss her daddy too much.. dulu dia slalu dengar suara daddy as he always talks to my belly... iskk... cepat le balik.. :((

1st gift...

Got this first gift from my sis in law for my little princess... comei... A baby blanket from Guess and baju with lil booties and bib from oshkosh... comei2...

Hihi...

Bought this cute lil dress for my baby last week... after checkup at DEMC, pegi sbelah tu ade Anakku shop... Well guess dis is the 1st time beli yg "girlie-girlie" punye baju... yg lain beli natural colour je.. coz i dun really like sume baju pink kare je sume... pening tengok... but this newborn baby girl baju ni comei sgt... hehe.. "kena" beli jugak...

Boney & Waty's Wedding

Went to Boney & Waty's wedding @ Kg Pengantin Jalan Ampang last week... though I was not that well.. dragged my feet to drive to KL and went there with Ati & Nazrol with si tecik.. Qistina... Owner of Spa Q la kononnye.. haha..

The atmosphere was nice.. the deco was superb..! (iskk.. rasa nak curik je fresh flowers tu..) and the bride & groom look sooo happy.... Nway.. glad i made it there.. Hoping that u both will have a sweet & wonderful life ahead... haha.. adiah tak beli lagi laa.. tak sempat....

Unwell... still

it has been more than one week I'm back here in Malaysia.. and the weather doesnt seem to suit me at all... last night I managed to get only a couple of hours asleep.. i had this fever... again... and my whole body was aching... not to mention my back was in pain... plus I had to get up every hour to empty my bladder... everytime i had to get up, requires extra effort... it was the longest night i ever had.. and every hour when i woke up.. i was like.."laaaaa... bila nak siang nih...?" i just cant get myself comfortable ~ at all... the extra portable fan that i used (hala direct to me - with full speed) doesnt seem to help bring my body temperature down.... isk...

Hopefully, esok sihat balik... i just cant stand just lying on bed all day long... the moment I'm writing this entry, the baby inside was kicking. maybe dia pun rasa panas kot.. since mommy dia demam.. well at least she's moving, and everytime i felt her movement, i was relieved - the only thing that lits up my day and makes me smile alhtough i'm not well... .... as long as she's healthy inside me...

Counting the days till dear Deboo comes back here in Malaysia... Everything seems much much easier to go thru if u r around... :(

33 weeks...

This week is my 33rd week of my pregnancy.. So far, everything went smoothly.. Yesterday, went for checkup here @ demc.. in Shah Alam... 1st time checkup kat Malaysia... Alhamdullillah... everything looks okay... although I'm having flu, cough and fever, my baby inside doesnt seem to stop kicking and "siku ing"...

Baby dah 2.2kg...and few things I realized during this 33rd week :

~ fatigue - I easily get tired... (kejap2 nak duduk....)and solat is getting difficult to perform - sometimes I just perform solat with only sitting position... the frequent sitting, and standing gives physical strain especially on my lower back and knees...

~ restless nights - with frequent pee breaks.. (issk.. 4-5 kali bangun tu...) and turning, and tossing while trying to get the most comfortable position to get my sleep...

~ swollen feet and hands when I stand or sit too long...

~ Out of breath if I eat too much at one particular time... Kalau makan byk2 skali, alamatnye, tak senang duduk, bediri pun tak kena.. baring lagi laa tak kena.. so, i normally eat small amount of meal at one time, but frequently.. isk... baru laa tak mengah2...

~ easily sweat - and I do sweat a lot.. especially here in Malaysia.. gee. how I miss Japan weather.. Malaysia panas gilee....!! gile pun tak panas cemni....

Here's the scaned image while I was in 31st and 33rd week of pregnancy...

Home from Home

It has been 1 week since I arrived here, back in Malaysia... Home.. away from my home in Nagasaki...

Gee.. I didnt know that I miss our little apartment in Nagasaki until I arrived here... I really do! Miss everything that I left there.. including my anak2 ikan.. not to mention "Deboo..." hehe... Really hope that I'll be there again someday.. haha.. tu pun if dear hubby tak kena anta balik ke sini lah....

Journey from Nagasaki to Kuala Lumpur was exhausting.. Nway, everything went well... though there were hiccups here and there while at the airport..(excess baggage punye pasal laa nih...)I managed to get all the assistance that I can get from Kansai Airport and KLIA... with my big belly, (berat lak tu...) all the luggage carried by ground assistance at the airport... hehe.. sebaik laaa.. kalau tak, sakit2 pinggang gak angkat beg... sampai gi shopping for perfume at the airport pun assistance tu ikut.... the MAS steward siap tanye.. "Puan nak pakai wheelchair tak...?" err... do I really look that helpless sampai berjalan pun tak larat? ishh... takyah le... bukan takleh jalan...

3 days after I arrived, we had open house here in Saujana Utama on the last day of Syawal... tiring...! penat gile sampai demam2 nih.. til today, I'm still having this flu, cough, and fever.... complete package.. anyway.. thanx to all my frens who made it ~ Ajaie , Izani & Kamila, Ati & Nazrol with their sweet Qistina.. Dodi and Damia the Menace with little Danish, and my family... mama, babah, along family and angah...

Mount Aso...

One place that i really wanted to go before I go back to Malaysia is here... Looking at the view of the largest active volcano in Japan is one of the list of things that I longed for while I was here... Ingatkan dah tak sempat pegi dah.. but last week, dear hubby ajak la jugak.. (Yeay...!!) Thank you dear... though it was his 2nd trip to Mount Aso. tapi coz I've never been there, dia kena la jugak bawak.. hihi...

After nearly 3 hours journey... (including naik ferry) to Kumamoto... we finally reached there... although the Gas Regulations forbid us to go to the top to see the crater (isskkk...), I enjoyed the beautiful view, anyway... and the cool breeze of angin gunung.. hehe.... to sum up.. here are the photos....

Counting the days....

14 more days to go before I leave Japan... huhu.. the thought bout it just stressed me out.. and I'm in no mood at all to cook, or buat kuih.. or kemas rumah.. or anything that I used to love doing, before... but have too lah kan.. if not, just laying on the couch will make me more depress or sakit belakang...

It's just like there's nothing that I look forward to do in KL anymore.. I actually hate emotional posts like this but I really do have to let it out somewhere or it will bottle up in me.. guess pregnant lady memang emotional kot.. huhu..

ok2.. let's list out what can cheer me up when I'm in KL again nanti.. :

1. Shopping for baby's stuff... tak sabar nak buat ni.... although I really dont know what to buy.. keke..guess I have to make the shopping list la skarang...
2. Jumpe anak2 buah... whom I missed so much.. especially the 2 youngest ones... Jema - the one yg tak benti2 membebel macam mak nenek unless something spoilt her mood.. and Ajik.. the cutest little creature.. he was 9 months old when I left for Japan.. skang dah besar la kot...
3. Kenduri Boney.. I really look forward of his kenduri with Waty.. hehe.. Really hope that he'll have a beautiful life with waty after all that he went thru... jalan idup macam industan daaa....)
4. Waiting for dear hubby to come back after the 2nd vessel delivery.. hmm.. dekat sebulan gak after I reach KL tuu...
5. Finally - to have the first look of our baby.. although the thought of "bersalin" really scares me off.. iskk.. takut wooo...Guess this is what every mother-to-be felt before going thru the delivery.. but hopefully everything will go really2 well... 3 things I wish for at the end of my prayer everyday :

- A cute little baby - sempurna sifat.. great health.. Soleh/Solehah with melodious voice to recite Quran & hadis....
- Strength for me to go through whatever a woman supposed to experience throughout pregnancy... and during labor and delivery of the baby...
- And... Guidance for us to be good parents after the baby is borned...

Amin..

Selamat Ari Raye....

Hari ni dah 4 Syawal... kejap je dah abih posa. Tak penah2 dapat posa penuh, alhamdulillah.. dis year aku posa penuh wooo...even though there're times that i felt sooo lembik.. tak larat nak posa... but sayang nak bebuke.. berjaye jugak le posa penuh..

First time raya posa kat Nagasaki.. tak terasa sgt pun raye.. since masa bulan posa, every week ada makan2.... so considered this was another makan2 aje... menu pun lebih kurang sama jek ngan masa bebuke bulan posa. ade nasik tomato.. nasi beriani daging... laksa.. nasi impit.. kuah kacang... ketupat pulut... rendang.. pulut kuning.. bihun goreng.. roti jala.. plus kuih2 raya and kerepek import dari mesia...

Pagi, cam biase pegi smayang raye kat ngan unibesiti.. schedule 7:30 stat smayang (mak aii.. punye le awall.. org kat mesia pun tak bangun lagik...) sampai2 dah 7:35 rerupenye diorg dah abih smayang.... adehh.. memang punctual mak datok.. ikut time jepun betul... at last, kitorg org2 mesia nih smayang sendiri lepas abih khutbah... Pastu pegi beraye umah en jun.... Malam lak, si haris and azuan dtg dpd ariake beraye.. so, masak le sket2 utk diorg... makan lagii... xtvt makan je ari nih...

2nd Syawal.. dah tak rasa raye dah... since dear hubby dah gi keja dah pun.. (iskk.. ari ahad pun keja).. 3rd Syawal.. lagi laa.. dia dah gi naik kapal... hmm.. lagi laa tak rasa raye.. bezanye aku spend the whole day tgk tv citer2 raye.. hehe.. kalau balik kampung tak dapek dok depan tv nih.. mesti kena bejalan raya.. paling tak pun, jiran2 keliling rumah.... kes kena paksa ngan mama le nih...

Anyhow.. raya kali ni cukup sederhana jek... 1st time beraya berdua.. seronot aje... bezanye takde isu balik kampung mana.. keke.. kena raye kat jepun... bab mintak maaf ngan hubby je tak pass lagik.. isk.. camno nih...isk.. tak reti weh..

so, to all.... slamat ari raye yek.. maaf zahir batin..

Bebuke posa...

Kejap je rasa dah 18 ramadhan ari ni.... last Saturday turn kat umah aku buat majlis bebuke... adeh.. dekat patah pinggang gak masak... nasik putih, ayam masak lemak, kerabu togeh ngan kerang.. nasik impit ngan kuah kacang, mee kari, kuih serimuka.. jiran kat atas, si azy tolong masak ikan sweet sour ngan sotong goreng...

sebaik dear hubby jadik assistant chef... takde la penat sgt.. tapi the day after tu tido jugak la satu hari.. penat mengemas... but all in all, everything went alrite...byk kuih2 member2 bawak... mcm biase kalau jadik tuan rumah, mesti tak lalu makan, menda2 yg dimasak sendiri... ringan la sket perut.. hehe

tak sampai 2 minggu lagi nak raya dah... kalau pasang radio sume dah stat main lagu raya dah... baru ade mood buat kuih... ari ni jek aku berjaya buat peyek ikan bilis ngan quaker oat.. hehe.. bukan ade sapa nak dtg beraya pun.. tapi syok utk makan sendiri jek... esok nak masak kuih ape ek?
