Pregnancy supplement

Alhamdullilah my pregnancy now is almost at the end of 2nd trimester. Everything went smoothly. Except the uncomfortable night sleep, back aching and nauseas feeling everytime baby moves around inside my belly. My belly is getting bigger day by day. I even take belly measurement by weekly and I know the growth is rapid. 

This time my pregnancy check up all was done at hospital Pantai. Due to time constraint and busy schedule at work, I can't afford to spend half a day checkup at government clinic. Plus I know, the visit is more frequent. I've done the blood test at Pantai Hospital and it cost me rm300. The result was ok, except my hemoglobin level was slightly low. This is happened during my first pregnancy as well. Doctor advised to take more multivitamin for this, instead of taking once daily, take twice daily morning and night time.

Check this out. These are all the supplement that I take. Calcium pills, fish oil, acid folic and multivitamin..

What I crave...

Pejam celik pejam celik dah masuk mid 2nd semester pregnancy aku. Memang banyak yang berlaku, cuma malas nak menaip. Sekarang nie pregnancy aku dah masuk minggu yang ke 24. Baby dah actively moving around. Kadang2 rasa loya bila dia kick here and there. Alhamdullilah, selera makan dah bertambah, dah aku rasa berat dah naik banyak. Dah terasa berat especially bila nak bangun dari duduk. So far aku tak ada mengidam benda yang pelik2, tapi aku suka sangat makan mangga kecil. Tapi mangga nie susah sikit nak cari. Dekat market pun tak selalu ada. Hari tu balik kampung, ada pokok berbuah, tapi masih lagi putik dan muda. Mujur adik aku teringat dekat rumah mak mertuanya, buah mangga nie tengah masak ranum. Mujur ada rezeki.

Luffy turns 5 today!

Happy birthday to my sweet little angle. He is officially 5 years old at today's date. Alhamdullilah, praise to Almighty God, for His Care, Blessing and love to my beautiful little boy. I'm so thankful to have him as my son and to have opportunity to being his mother. I think it'll be never end to say how grateful and lucky I am to be a mother of this precious boy. It'll be infinite page to say how much I love him, and I do hope and pray, my son will be always healthy, success and blessed in everything that he's done and went through. Amin. 

6 weeks pregnancy

Today I went for a check-up with Dr Teh again. This time to check how is the progress of my little angel. He/she is growing bigger now. Not that big though, is 8mm long. The cute is I can see and hear the heartbeat. I feel so relieved and happy to know that everything is turn normal and no issue. The position also seem Ok, in the uterus. Check this out, this is how my fetus from the ultrasound scan. Today I got the video too. 

For medication, doctor advised me to take acid folic 5 mg daily and Pramilet tablet. Last week doctor gave me Duphaston. It help to strengthen the uterus for pregnancy, and it has lots of progesterone hormone. But it was banned in certain western countries. 

How to get him like read the book as he overwhelmed with the game?

It's so difficult to get my little boy to read book. He ask me to accompany him to bed. Then I ask to read book together with the new book that I bought yesterday. This is his respond. He immediately fall asleep on the floor. And the moment later, he's with the iPad playing game.

Luffy first school exam

My little boy just had a mid year exam last week. I was a bit excited compared to him. I guess he don't really care and know how exam can be so stressful and important in life. I forced him to do some revision, but it is so difficult to get him concentrate with study. So many distraction and so many stop. Well, I just try my best, flip a few pages of his kindie book and study together with him.

So last Saturday was the parent - teacher review session. So the teacher will update how the kids do during the exam, kids progress, kids behaviour and improvement on the kids. Basically Luffy is doing fine, just that he prefer to do something slow. Not too rush, but he will do it. He's willing to learn, good interaction skill and polite. On the mark, he got 100% for Maths, 88% BM, 85% English, 88% Science and 76% Moral. Not bad I guess, but there's a lot of improvement need to be done. Not on Luffy only, but for me as well. I need to spend more time on him, guide him on study routine.

1st check up

It's a bit early for pregnancy check up I guess. However due to some complication, I decided to get doctor opinion on my pregnancy. I've contracted some bleeding and it happened 2 times already. I was very worried. I don't feel cramped, back aching or contraction on my stomach. Just that when I go toilet, I can see blood came out. Another thing is that I scared is ectopic pregnancy where the embryo implant at the Fallopian tube instead of uterus. This is hazardous to mother. Another possibility is miscarriage. I read on the net about 50% of bleeding during early pregnancy end up with miscarriage. This is very saddening for me.
After go through the ultrasound, doctor said my pregnancy looks normal. However is still too early. Based on my period cycle, and the size of the seed I should be around 5 weeks. Only gest sac is appear on the ultrasound check. Next week, there"ll be another check up and doctor advise me to get some rest. If there is more bleeding, go and see the doctor immediately.
So this is what I see from ultrasound. I hope you develop successfully my little angel..InsyaAllah.

2 bars????

This is the time where me and my husband has been waiting for quite some time. Since Luffy turn 3, we have been planning to get a second kid. However no luck yet, but this morning Allah has answer my prayer. I've done this pregnancy test last week and the result was negative. I was a bit frustrated. I thought it'll be the same like previous months, pregnancy test and after few days, my period would come. But for this time, it's been a week and my period has not come. So I take chance to do pregnancy test again. They say, it's good to do it in the early morning where the hg hormone at the peak. Alhamdullilah... It's positive this time. It's still early though, only 6 weeks. I hope the seed will grow succesfully.

Homework

Is not only Luffy got to do homework everyday...now, I need to do homework as well... I should got some discipline inside me to do homework... It's like back to school. life is great..life is continuous learning process...

public phone.

Semalam masa tunggu husband beli something, aku lepak dekat pondok telefon berdekatan kereta aku. Mengimbas balik kenangan lama, memang aku banyak memori dengan nya. This is the one of the powerful gadget during my teenager time..
Masa aku tinggal RPS hostel, ni gadget aku utk call mak aku kat kg dan family. Masa cuti lepas SPM, time tu rasanya hormon gatal tgh memuncak. Banyak "balak" masa nie. Aku rasa tiap2 hari mesti aku akan singgah melepak kat public phone kat kg ataupun kat pekan changkat kruing.. Huhuhu
Masa kat university pun sama. Sebelum aku pakai hp, aku rajin jugak gayut kat public phone. Time mula2 masuk Uni, baru bergiat dlm IRC, mmg ramai kawan, so bila dah ramai kawan kena rajin contact.. Hahaha.. So itulah cerita aku pasal public phone nie. Kalau dulu mmg ada bnyk, sampai 3-4 kat 1 row. Skrg org dah ramai guna hp. Jarang paksi dah except for emergency. hp battery atau credit habis..

New year 2013

Aku rasa masih belum terlewat untuk aku celebrate new year. Aku cuma 7 hari terlewat. Tak seperti tahun-tahun sebelum ini, kebiasaannya malam new year aku akan balik lewat malam. Sebabnya terkandas dalam traffic jam. This year pukul 11 mlm, aku dah berlabuh untuk beradu. Pada mulanya memang nak sambut untuk pergi Esplanade Penang. Every year fireworks show dia memang entertaining sungguh. This year Luffy tak mau. "Kita tngk bunga api kat Luffy house na", "Mama tngk bunga api kat iPad Luffy na" itu saja diulang-ulangnya. Aku dah pujuk banyak kali tapi tak berhasil. Tapi actually aku diselamatkan oleh Luffy. Mlm tu diarrhoea aku tak baik-baik. Asyik ke toilet saja kerja ku. Imagine kalau aku dekat Padang esplanade tu. Org sibuk nak tngk bunga api, aku sibuk nak cari toilet. Dahlah public toilet, just imagine.. Mesti yucks.. Sebab mlm tu dgn org yg ramai, mesti t$&k pun banyak.

Anyway happy new year, hopefully all our wishes and dream will come true this year!!

A joke for tonight

One night my small family went to pizza for a dinner. The waitress gave Luffy a kids' plate. So I ask Luffy what are the things on the plate. He answer all correctly except for one. Me, "what is this?" Luffy," mushroom, tomato, onion, sponge bob" ... Hahaha..

My new gadget

Just cut it short... this is the best gadget that i got for this year. Even though it is beginning of the year, i still think this is the BEST for this year. I was considering to buy a tablet for myself, but i cant decide which one. I like ipad, however the price is a bit high. 2nd choice would be a cheap tablet from China. Ii got a good price for it from a friend. But the questioned mark is on the quality, robustness and battery life. To my suprised, hubby offer to buy me the ipad. At first, I declined saying that it not necessity for me to have a tablet. Few days after that, I changed my mind. Hubby said the offer still open :) He was suggesting me to get an ipad. But i fell in love with ipad mini though.. Hehehe. Last saturday, he bought me one from Harvey Norman. Its a hot cake, they only left with 2 more black color and full spec. Not sure when the new stock will come. So I get one. Thanks to my hubby...
