Birth Story - Part 1

I was called to make this entry after being reading article from babycentre on birth suprise. It bring me back down memory lane on my own experience giving birth to my two lovely princesess Little Miss Daughnut and Little Miss Munchkin... It's an experience that for me every woman should experience...It make me love my Ibu more and appreciate mother love...It was such a memorable experience to me..it's hurt..but worthless...

Little Miss Daughnut

On 2nd February 2006, the arrival of my little princess had make my day. She was born on the due date as being predicted by the doctor itself.... I tell you, it was realy hurt OK...For the first timer, it was far away from my imagination.

Exactly a week before she come to the world, I had a realy bad back pain that I can barely stand. My husband had to papah me to the car and so on. I got my MC, but still cannot go back since Partner In Crime had to work. So what I do, get my rest at the Surau....

On the day before...I didn't experience any pain at that time. It just a little bleeding. huh...I am not so worried as I read before that it's normal to have this during the last trimester....how stupid am I..well..I'm a first timer..remember....then, from spot it getting more and more...the bleeding is just like the one you have during menstruation....at this stage, I started to worry..so I ask my Partner In Crime to go for check-up...since it was Chinese New Year and Awal Muharram holiday, not so much of clinic was open.. we end up going to one of the clinic in Sentul. Dr do the check-up and some scan..the baby was doing fine and the dr say not to worry much...it's going to be a week away.OK..so we headed home...in the afternoon, the bleeding is getting worst. So MIL ask us to go to the hospital straight...so we wait until after Isyak prayer to make it easy..

At hospital, the opening is only about 1-3 cm only..so I was awarded. 

I can realy feel the contraction only around 1:00 am in the morning....ouch....there goes along the night....my water broke around 2:30 am .... I deal with the pain by walking between toilet and my bed...I can't lay down...The best that I can so at that time was sitting on the chair and hold thigh the pillow...how I wish he was here with me...the nurse did come a few time to check....

At about 6:30 am...the nurse come to check and she was shock that there is already 6cm opening and she had to rush me to the labour room...the time she push me to the labour room, hubby arrive....the nurse said to hubby, "Nasib baik encik cepat"..heheh...

In the labour room, they gave me my uniform. It was an air cond and I feel very dry.ask for some drink but the nurse told me that they cannot offer me any drink just in case for emergency c-sect....when the contraction started to be heavy....I was like...cannot think anymore. All the doa and zikir was like everywhere...Thank dear for being there for me, to go through all the pain...I dunno how hard I squeeze your hand...But I do remember saying that I don't want baby in a few years time.

During the labour process, there was a few trainee and I dun mind bout that, coz all I think was to get the baby out of me. after all the push..and cutting and all....My little baby come out in about 2-3 push only. She come to the world at 8.33 am. Seeing her for the first time, I just cannot describe it in words... Yes..I did it. She is my kuih pau..ahahhah....putih and gebu......

it's a new world

...but it didn't end there..there is another problem.....

I got retained placenta...gosh....got a few jap which I don't know what was that for...the nurse and dr come a few time but still cannot get the placenta out...so another dr was called and she is the one that get the things out by using hands.....seeing her wearing such a long latex glove, I know it not normal case...and at last, it's out......go so many stitch because of that.....and it's not easy to discipline myself during the confinement for the first time....

Well..that's the story....the begining of my new journey.....

part 2 will be post later...hey..it my Little Miss Munchkin story.....

Minggu sakit

Alahai...last week had been a sick week for both kids...

the result....Ibu had to take EL for 4 days...what to do....apa nak jadi pun, jadi lah

we can change our job, but we can never replace our kids....

It's all started on the friday a week before..Little Miss Munchkin got fever when being fetch from nursery..haish...as usual, ibu will give med from the stock that we still have back at home...Atok and nenek was here that weekend..missing their grandaughters so much.....hehe..after all the enjoyable japanese dinner and shopping...Little Miss Munchkin fever is still there..she is not so meragam...but when it comes to third day...something must be wrong....

Sunday morning, bring Little Miss Munchkin to clinic...when we said it was fever..and maybe it's a complication from her throat...the dr prescribe flu medication and Oh no...antibiotic........damn..hate it....

Monday.....both of the kids is missing to stay at home with ibu during weekdays that both of them sepakat to have fever...hmmm..so first day of EL that week....

Tuesday...off to school and nursery as usual....

afternoon...fetch the kids and staright went back home....at home..while waiting for dinner to be cook, Little Miss Munchkin started to be cranky....hurmm..there must be something wrong....owhh!! there goes rashes all over..started on her face....first things in Ibu mind is alergies...maybe food or dust....second taught..hurm..measles??

there goes medicated powder where will usually make the rashes go away...that night...she wake up a few time crying...after being feed..she still crying...owh...ibu start risau......

Wednesday.......look at the rashes which is still there...Arghhh..please..not measles...went to clinic 2nd time...confirm it measles.....dr Hasniah says the measles will go of in 5 days time.....hmmm..that's means....another EL....so there goes wednesday, thursday and friday....dunno what 'MUMMY' will say.....but...who cares...

mcm tak sakit je..geledah tetap geledah..mitten terpaksa pakai to avoid scratching

Saturday..she look much better...so afternoon...to wan house...aiya......Miss Muchkin got alergy pulak....dunno insect bite..or food alergy....pity her....hidung bengkak and again..rashes all over....as My Partner in Crime to went back coz her medication is at home....went back ASAP.....apply calamine lotion and give her some medication.....after feeding..she fall asleep..so does Ibu..hmm...zzZzzZz...

Sunday... after spending most of the week at home, we decide to bring the kids for jalan-jalan....since Little Miss Daughnut haven't went to playground for so long...so there goes Lake Garden...its play time.... we did enjoy the time there..it's a good spot for spending time with family...Love doing it...time to go back....

Back at home...at night..owh...Little Miss Munchkin had shown some sign of fever..and yes..her temperature went a bit high....put her to sleep and some rest....Ibu tempek Cool Fever ye adik...!!!....

Owh...what a weekend...Its a sick week terutama for Little Miss Munchkin...siannn anak Ibu sorang nie.......

I want this Badly..

I want this Badly.....

Can somebody give me this as a present..heheheh..This things was in a hope, I can supply better...I realy wanna buy this, but...kene menabung dulu..This will cost me almost my 1 month salary tu..isk...

Every since I delivered Little Miss Munchkin, I somehow had become obses with BF and the things related to it.....My target is to supply Little Miss Munchkin until she is 2 yrs old at least....

The reason why BF...

• I want to give my kiddos the very best they can get....I don't have much money to give them harta yang membukit, but I believe that this is more that those harta yang membukit...
• I want to prove to myself and some people that a working mother also can BF ok.....kalo duduk rumah lagi senang, but sadly, certain people out there refuse to give their child the very best.....
• I want to my child to have better health...and better bond with me...Little Miss Munchkin seems to bond with me better than Little Miss Daughnut...
• I want to be a better mom..and I lurve my kids very-very much
• And the main reason is to follow what Allah has stated in the Holy Quran ....

First Meal

Yesszaaa...

Little miss munchkin had her first meal on Saturday....the menu was, bubur nasi dengan kurma.. makan kat rumah nenek ok..ramuan kurma nabi + kurma Mabroom + kurma biasa....the resepi was simple,

boil all the dates until tender to remove the skin.

after removing the skin and seeds, boil together the rice and dates until tender..

then..wosh...wosh..wosh..into the blender....

memula makan, dia rasa pelik...sikit je dia makan. tapi ok la for starting...

Sunday Menu....

Sedap la sket kot....nenek dah bising kasi cucu dia makan bubur kurma je...

so Sunday Menu end up with ...

bubur sayur-sayuran (kentang, carrot & bayam) dengan ikan...

saya suka, tapi Little Miss Munchkin muka cam toya je bila makan....

haish....

Monday Menu

Sorry dear, ibu yg tak sempat hari ni, tak bekalkan adik bubur pun for your lunch. Tak pe..balik nanti, nak try bagi adik nestum apple cranberry yg beli hari tu...

For tomorrow, tgk la ibu sempat masak pe..

perancangan mcm nak buat bubur kacang peas dengan ikan

Hopefully you will like it....

Hopefully, ibu akan rajin untuk masak bubur untuk Little Miss Munchkin sepertimana Little Miss Daughnut last time...

Ibu yang tak sabar

Yeehaa!!..tak sabarnya tunggu hari ahad nie...

KENAPA???

sebab.....This sunday, little miss munchkin will be 6 month old. That's means...saya berjaya mensupply munchkin dgn zat2 yg diperlukannya.(walaupun terpaksa top-up sikit ngan susu formula bila supply tak cukup <-- saya menci keadaan ini). Wah...suka sebab dulu little miss daughnut hanya dapat zat dari saya cuma 2 bulan dek kerana kurang pengetahuan...sad...

Ini bermakna...dia dah nak start solid...ada jugak terfikir nak teruskan dengan hanya BM sahaja...tapi susah juga tu..sebab, banyak sgt tangan yg pemurah nak suap makan...dan little miss munchkin sekarang pun, suma nak sumbat masuk mulut... habis mainan little miss daughnut die gigit..semalam ada cubaan memasukkan benang yg dia jumpa kat karpet ke dalam mulut... haha..ibunye yg tak sabar, dah memacam resepi fikir nak bagi dia makan...terjumpa website cik annabel yg sgt banyak resepi untuk little miss munchkin...tapi kena sabar...saya terpanggil dengan ibu si kembar hari little miss munchkin yg mencadangkan hanya bubur nasi dengan kurma sebagai permulaan..menarik...maklumlah..makanan sunnah rasulullah...baik cuba ini dahulu sebelum ibu nye meroyan ngan resepi baby food yg lain...
