Hola my dear family and friends. Okay, I have zero intention to put up my baby+mommy stuff wishlist on my blog or any other social networking. Nada! But, since there's a lot of friends and family been asking me what's our wishlist and they want it to be in details, i guess i better do before alot more people asking. I don't wanna do a wishlist because i know baby+mommy stuff is so darn expensive. I dun wanna put any pressure to anyone. But...sigh, more than a person have requested me doing it.
So here is the list, my dear family and friends. You ask for it, you got it... :P
1. Medela Freestyle Breast Pump
or Medela Swing will do too...
2. Philips Avent Food/Milk Warmer
[OR]
3. Iiamo Self-Heating Feeding Bottle [preferably in green or white http://www.iiamo.com]
4. Tommee Tippee Insulated Bottle Bag
4.Baby Bjorn Baby Carrier [preferably in Green Energy or Red Heart or Black Diamond]
5. Philips AVENT Newborn Starter Set Honey Colour BPA Fre
6.Philips AVENT Electric Steam Steriliser
7. Fisher Price Jumperoo
8. Fisher Price Baby Bouncer
Again, this is just our personal wishlist. No forcing.
Is to write music & song and play guitar & piano and sing it! I always berangan that me and Mr.K have this duo band and i sing he'll play guitar or piano and vise versa. And then when we have kids, our kids will also have the talent of singing and play instrument. We don't wanna go big, but low profile, just a homemade video, share it with people who appreciate music and talent. Berangan,berangan,berangan. Tak salah kan? Free je pon. Hihi..but who knows, right? =P
Let me share this video with you guys. I fell in love with boy, Aziz Harun. Uber talented! He's only 11 i think, started singing when was 8 or something.. Please just listen. You'll melt!
Hola everyone. No, I haven't give birth yet. Still in the waiting game. I still have 5 more days til my EDD. My baby son is really taking his own sweet time in my tummy. He must really like it in there, the most comfy pad for him. Hehe.
Went for another check up with Dr.Hamidah last Thursday. Did CTG scan, cuz i feel like my fetal movement is a bit slow, not as active as he was before. But his heartbeat is normal and healthy, sounds like a very strong healthy horse running. Baby is already engaged and Dr.Hamidah did checked on my vagina to see whether my cervix is already dilating or not but seinci pon serviks tak bukak lagi :( Nampaknye macam lame lagi lah nak kene tunggu. I plan for vaginal delivery, [well at least i really hope i can]. But if the cervix won't dilate at my 40th week, maybe i have to change my plan, which go for c-sect. I seriously don't want to be induce [force labor]. If i choose to be induce, and my cervix won't dilate [it happened couple of my friends], doctor will definitely cut your tummy, no turning back. So i've made my decision, i don't want to suffer twice. Just cut me open.
But in the meantime, i'm gonna wait til my EDD which is May 15th 2011, this upcoming Sunday. Although Dr.Hamidah said, i could wait till another 12 days, after the my EDD but, i don't think i can wait any longer. Unless if there's something wrong with his movement, then she suggest us to induce or go for c-sect. She does not want to take any risk. But as long as the baby is healthy in my tummy, i still can wait till 12 days after my due. So yeah, we'll see how.
Last Sunday i experienced some mild contraction/Braxton Hicks every one hour from 12.30am til 4.15am. Then i fell asleep till 7.30 in the morning. But that night, i seriously and very confident that i will be labor the next day, but,but...my guess is wrong. Nothing happened the next morning.
Now here i am, at home waiting for the big moment.
p/s . going for the next check up this Friday. hopefully i'm dilating. :)
Have you ever loved someone so much, you’d give an arm for?
Not the expression, no, literally give an arm for?
When they know they’re your heart
And you know you were their armour
And you will destroy anyone who would try to harm ‘her
But what happens when karma, turns right around and bites you?
And everything you stand for, turns on you, despite you?
What happens when you become the main source of her pain?
“Daddy look what I made”, Dad’s gotta go catch a plane
“Daddy where’s Mommy? I can’t find Mommy where is she?”
I don’t know go play Hailie, baby, your Daddy’s busy
Daddy’s writing a song, this song ain’t gonna write itself
I’ll give you one underdog then you gotta swing by yourself
Then turn right around in that song and tell her you love her
And put hands on her mother, who’s a spitting image of her
That’s Slim Shady, yeah baby, Slim Shady’s crazy
Shady made me, but tonight Shady’s rocka-by-baby…
And when I’m gone, just carry on, don’t mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that I’m looking down on you smiling
And I didn’t feel a thing, So baby don’t feel no pain
Just smile back
And when I’m gone, just carry on, don’t mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that I’m looking down on you smiling
And I didn’t feel a thing, So baby don’t feel no pain
Just smile back…
I keep having this dream, I’m pushin’ Hailie on the swing
She keeps screaming, she don’t want me to sing
“You’re making Mommy cry, why? Why is Mommy crying?”
Baby, Daddy ain’t leaving no more, “Daddy you’re lying
“You always say that, you always say this is the last time
“But you ain’t leaving no more, Daddy you’re mine”
She’s piling boxes in front of the door trying to block it
“Daddy please, Daddy don’t leave, Daddy – no stop it!”
Goes in her pocket, pulls out a tiny necklace locket
It’s got a picture, “this’ll keep you safe Daddy, take it withcha’”
I look up, it’s just me standing in the mirror
These fuckin’ walls must be talking, cuz man I can hear ‘em
They’re saying “You’ve got one more chance to do right” – and it’s tonight
Now go out there and show that you love ‘em before it’s too late
And just as I go to walk out of my bedroom door
It’s turns to a stage, they’re gone, and this spotlight is on
And I’m singing…
Sixty thousand people, all jumping out their seat
The curtain closes, they’re throwing roses at my feet
I take a bow and thank you all for coming out
They’re screaming so loud, I take one last look at the crowd
I glance down, I don’t believe what I’m seeing
“Daddy it’s me, help Mommy, her wrists are bleeding,”
But baby we’re in Sweden, how did you get to Sweden?
“I followed you Daddy, you told me that you weren’t leavin’
“You lied to me Dad, and now you make Mommy sad
“And I bought you this coin, it says ‘Number One Dad’
“That’s all I wanted, I just want to give you this coin
“I get the point – fine, me and Mommy are going”
But baby wait, “it’s too late Dad, you made the choice
“Now go out there and show ‘em that you love ‘em more than us”
That’s what they want, they want you Marshall, they keep.. screamin’ your name
It’s no wonder you can’t go to sleep, just take another pill
Yeah, I bet you you will. You rap about it, yeah, word, k-keep it real
I hear applause, all this time I couldn’t see
How could it be, that the curtain is closing on me
I turn around, find a gun on the ground, cock it
Put it to my brain and scream “die Shady” and pop it
The sky darkens, my life flashes, the plane that I was supposed to be on crashes and burns to ashes
That’s when I wake up, alarm clock’s ringin’, there’s birds singin’
It’s Spring and Hailie’s outside swinging, I walk right up to Kim and kiss her
Tell her I miss her, Hailie just smiles and winks at her little sister
Almost as if to say.. *********************************************
I know know, sucha lame of me for liking Eminem. But who cares? I love Slim Shady since the day i heard Stan, when i was still in secondary school. It’s the lyrics makes me crazy over him. I just like rap & hip hop & R&B. Im always impressed by people who really can rap! [have you try rapping? It's not easy to rap you know? You have to really know your words.. try it!]
He’s loving, unique and honest in his song. He wrote so many about his life and how he was brought up and how he don’t want her daughter to have the life he had before. He tried to be the best dad, the number 1 dad for his daughter, Hailie. Hailie is everything to him. I remember once upon a time [when i was still in school, teenage girl], i really really like really really wanted to meet Eminem, to be in his arm and cuddling and and be the queen of his heart. I even hafal all the stuff about him, I watched [of course only from TV, u think my mom would let me go to his concert? hahaha!]/bought every single cd [the original CD tau! tak main lah cetak rompak punye!] & concert vcd of Eminem. Pergh…mmg hard core fan lah mase tu. But bile dah besa sikit, i slow down a bit, thinking that I wont ever gonna meet him face to face, and its far from reality that I’m gonna be his girlfriend, or wife, or the mother of his child… haha! So i move on… And i got a better one, the best husband ever! Who also can rap [in a funny way] about me. LOL~
Hola! No, no, i haven't give birth yet. We're still playing the waiting game. I'm not enjoying the waiting game, this is so stressful for me. I'm in my 37 week now. My official estimated due is on May 15th 2011, so basically i have another 3 more weeks to go.
Playing the waiting game is not as fun as you thought
Hello there! Sorry for the extended delay for this entry post. I just got the camera from my sis.
We went for antenatal class which was held at Columbia Asia Puchong at Bandar Puteri at my 34week. It was not bad, very informative for both of us. I won't be delivering my baby here at Columbia Asia though. It was our second option at first [1st option was Naluri Medical Centre]. But we changed our mind recently to Putrajaya Hospital under the FPP scheme [cheaper and more nearer to our house]. We were supposed to go for antenatal class at Putrajaya Hospital; where we registered to deliver our baby but we didn't. The reason is because, the class will only be once a month and ONLY on MONDAY [and ONLY those who registered to deliver their baby there are welcome to participate]. Very exclusive. But the thing is we don't want to waste our annual leave just for the class. So we looked for other options, and lucky us Columbia Asia antenatal class is still ongoing in April on Sunday. So i called them and register. The fees differences are not much, Columbia Asia is RM80/couple and Putrajaya Hospital is RM70/couple.
What did we get for RM80/couple? We got a goodie bag full with some samples like milk from EnfaMama, some diapers for newborn, lots of pamphlets which contains a very important informations, head pillow for baby, nursing bag, some fancy flash card for baby, and a lot more i can't remember. They also provide breakfast and lunch. We had sandwiches with tea/coffee for breakfast and a plate of fish & chip with cordial drinks and some dessert. Sangat puas hati lah pendek kata.
And the talk were given on :
-Physiology of normal pregnancy
-The Labor- What every woman should know
-Common problems in newborn
-Epidural anesthesia
-Video show epidural
-Tips to reduce backache during pregnancy
-Breastfeeding technique -Nursing your baby
-Nutritions
-Antenatal exercise
-Ward tour
*Too bad they didn't show the video of normal birthing and c-sect. But you can still watch it on Youtube though.
Overall, the talk was not bad, i only yawned like a couple of times. It's because i am really sleepy [sleepless night, you know why] not because i was bored with all the lectures ya? [they will let you ask any question at the end of their lecture] Let me share one of my favourite part from the class. It's called Myth or Fact of Pregnancy.
1.MYTH : When you're pregnant, you should be eating for 2.
FACT : You should not be eating for 2. Eat like you normally do but change to a healthy meal if you could.Because logically your baby is sooooooooooooo tiny to eat all the second portion of yours. He probably will eat only 1/7 from the foods that you consume.
2. MYTH : It's okay to be fat during pregnancy
FACT : You should only be gained 15kg MAXIMUM from your ideal weight. Being pregnant is not a PASS for you to be fat and eat every food that you can find in this world. You still have to control your ideal body weight and BMI. This will prevent you to get any 'unwanted' disease such as diabetes or high blood pressure during pregnancy.
3. MYTH : DHA is the only nutrient needed for baby's development.
FACT : DHA is important for baby's brain development. But there's a lot of other nutrient needed such as Choline, Folic Acid and Calcium.
4. MYTH : All milk are the same
FACT : Not all milk are the same
Now, can you the different between the myth and the fact?
And this is the suggested daily menu that you can follow once you know that you're pregnant.
Another interesting part is the ward tour. They bring us to see the ward the single bedded and double bedded and also the labor room.
The labor room is very cozy! Loving it but too bad i'm not gonna give birth here. I wonder how is the labor room in Putrajaya Hospital. Would it be this nice? But according to a friend of mine who went to antenatal class at Putrajaya Hospital, she said that the labor room is nice and cozy too. I will not put high expectation, but hopefully it will be as nice as this or even better. Hehe..
So if you still hesitating whether you should participate the antenatal class or not, i'd say go for it! Especially to the first time parents [ade jugak yang tengah pregnant anak kedua danketiga join this class]. At least you get the idea on how you should handle yourself and your wife(for husband) and your baby. Don't ever think this class is a burden, enjoy it! You wont be regret. Trust me :)
