Firas @ 7months

kenapa saya suka Pangkor :D

2012-01-17T00:15:00.000-08:00

baru perasan entry ni dah lama terperam kat draft huhuhu..
sorry entry ni banyak gambar. tapi nak letak jugak sbb i sukaaa sgt bila balik pangkor (wpon org suka kata pangkor tak best ;p)
nak tau sbb apa, tgk sampai habis k? :D

ekceli Pangkor ni kampung i. last Nov balik sana sbb ada kenduri kawen.
dah lamaaa takde sedara kawen kat pangkor so agak excited la ni. last skali masa makcik i kawen. time tu i darjah 6. tapi ingat lagi sbb macam meriah sgt kendurinya :) now i dah beranak dua. tak ke lama tuuu? ;p

selalunya kitorng balik Pangkor naik from Jeti Lumut.
tapi kali ni try naik from Marina Jetty pulak.
harga ticket sama, rm5 one way. tapi bezanya:

1- travel time. naik ferry from Lumut 30mins, naik from Marina only 10mins! (same destination- Pangkor jetty)
2- parking. kat jeti Lumut susah nak cari parking, or parking jauh. kat Marina, banyak gilos parking. & dekat.
3- Marina jetty tak crowded mcm jeti Lumut. (sbb dia private jetty) tapi boat jalan every 1 hour. kalau kat Jeti Lumut, every 30 mins.
4-Marina jetty nye scenery cantikk! :D
* next time sapa nak pegi pangkor, i recommend naik from Marina jetty, less hassle. tapi for 1st timer, or nak rasa naik boat lama sikit, naik la from jeti Lumut

ok layan gamba je lah ek.
blog ni takde gambar tak sah ;p

pangkor kat dpn tu je. betul2 opposite.
dah boleh nampak kg i kat seberang tu.

kaunter tiket pun x ramai org

cantikk! reminds me of rebak marina langkawi

athirah takut2 nak naik bot

takde org langsung!
jgn malu2. buat mcm boat sendiri ye ;p

my 'bibik' chilling konon2 naik private boat

10 mins je dah sampai kat jeti pangkor

ni bot lama. kalau naik from jeti lumut biasanya naik bot ni la.

ni bukan papan nombor ekor yea.. tapi nombor plat van ;p

van pink jambu
naik van about 5mins
naik van kat sini macam naik roller coaster. dgn jalan sempit, lubang2, angin kuat hiihi

i love this view! i rasa mcm time freeze. sbb dulu masa i umur 5 thn pun view macam ni, now dah umur 30 pun view macam ni. bau pun sama je (bau laut & ikan2 tu kan) suka!

ok dah sampai kampung saye :D

main transportation kat sini motor, so penuh motor parking kiri kanan jalan.

'dining hall' baru kat rumah makcik i. seaview gituu

rumah makcik i ni skali dgn kedai makan dia. so that day kedai makan jadi tempat makan kenduri. kira makan free la satu hari tu hehe.. dulu masa cuti sekolah i slalu tolong dia kat kedai ni. amik order & jadi cashier ;p

tmpat makan pengantin menghala ke laut

yg ni across the road. tu dia khemah depan dalam blakang rumah semua ada.
tapi mmg ramai org dtg. rasanya more than 2000. masak gotong royong, ketua rewang tu bapak MB Perak. sempoii.. kata sekampung :)

pekena bubur kacang bawah pokok tepi laut

tempat panggang ikan. slalu tu tangkap ikan, basuh, bakar terus kat sini

ikan fresh dari laut, siang, potong, terus masuk kawah

motip letak gamba ni? ;p
saje nak tunjuk kat sana tak main aa pakai sponge basuh pinggan. semua pakai jala je. ni jala2 yg dah rosak & tak pakai lagi. potong2 buat basuh pinggan. jala yang besar2, buat jadi buaian kat bawah rumah

bersidai mengadap laut

view depan
masa tghari ni air belum 'pasang'. anak sapa oi main laut tgh2 hari terik

boat pun tersadai sbb air surut

view kanan

view kiri

pengantin sudah sampai

mat saleh sorang ni siap join pengantin berarak, sampai la ke meja makan beradap.
i smpat tanya dia from mana. sweeden. tipu dia tipu la i ;p

siap join makan kenduri.
(ekceli byk jugak tourist dah join makan kenduri ni, uncle i pelawa) rumah ni dkt main road kan, tu yg estimate sampai tetamu 2k+ tu

pakcik & makcik i ni dulu chef kat hotel.so ni keje geng2 drg la ni.
gila skill!

pelamin buat from sofa aje, sempoiii! kawen jugak. ye dak?? ;p

lepas bersanding terus outdoor photoshoot belakang dapur rumah je hihih..

tapi yang paling bestttttt...
...
...
...
..

view from the bedroom!
awesome!!
feeling2 kat maldives sekejabb. wahh penah pegi maldives ke???! hahaaha

budak2 panjat pokok kelapa..

.. pastu terjunnn!
(pokok kelapa bengkok ni dah ada since i kecik2 lagi)

air dah pasang! nak dekat tangga rumah dah. bunyi ombak makin kuat
kalau overnite kat rumah makcik i ni, macam tido atas air sbb bunyi ombak kuat (esp around 12-3 pagi)

by 5pm, air dah sampai tangga rumah!

athirah excited :D
"mommy rumah nak basah. air dah banyak"

my cousins semua dah 'turun padang'
drg ni umur 4-5 bulan lagi dah kena campak dalam laut tau. elok je tenggelam timbul. xde pulak yg penah lemas hehe

hubby kata next time nak try follow pakcik/cousin i turun laut
larat ke bang? takut mabuk je kang hehe,.

haihh bukan selalu dapat lepak tgk view mcm ni!
indahhhhhh ok ilang semua stress

kitorang balik naik boat pukul 7pm to marina jetty.
(last boat departed 8pm)

angin laut ptg tu sangat best. ramai org chillax kat jetty.

ada wedding photoshoot

ada birthday party
haih bestnya

kanak2 riang. ntah brapa kali dah tukar baju +_+

ok lah itu aje.
hihih thx for reading :D

Athirah @school

2012-01-15T22:55:00.000-08:00

1st day-
she woke up early, pakai uniform, breakfast, amik gambar. hihi..
1st day cuak2. panic pun ye jugak tgk budak2 lain nangis.
masa nak kena tinggal tu mmg drama la kan haha.. mommy pun terpaksa la hati kering tinggal kan jugak. i amik cuti on that day, tapi tatau nak buat apa or pegi mana sbb asik teringat muka anak menangis kena tinggal kat school huhuhu :( terbayang2 muka sedih dia :( *hal ehwal emo emak-emak kan* ;p

i fetched her at 5pm, tgk elok gumbira je tgh main. pastu report "tadi kann.. danish basahkan uniform Athi" bla bla bla.. tadi kann tu mmg default ayat mereport Athirah ;p

2nd day- much better. eventho mcm 50-50, tapi dia x nangis & follow her teacher masuk class. yeay! tapi muka ada sedikit moyok2 ;p

3rd day- salam mommy then terus masuk class. muka pun tak moyok dah :D *mommy lompat bintanggg*

so far her first 2 weeks OK la. 1st day tu je mencabar sikit.
-now hari2 dia bangun pagi, mandi, pakai uniform, breakfast.
record ni, dah 2 wks :) part ni i kena puji dia sbb dia tak meragam. good girl kakak :)

-lepas tu hari2 temankan mommy hantar & amik Firas.
kakak tolong angkatkan beg susu Firas & tekan kan button naik lift :D
padahal tingkat 1 je, tapi excited nak naik lift punya pasal. turun ikut tangga.

-everyday ada je benda dia cerita. & gossip. & nyanyi new songs. skang dah pandai Selawat :)

-malam2 Athirah dah tak pee2. before tido pegi toilet siap2.
kdg2 dia kejut daddy sbb nak pee2, so bawak dia pegi toilet :)

random pics- pegi & balik school,
gambar kat school lupa pulak nak snap ;p

WW- words

2011-2012

2012-01-08T23:19:00.000-08:00

I hope it's not too late to wish everyone a joyous Happy New Year!!
err.. yes i know, i'm a week left behind already ;p last year pun lambat jugak. ape nak jadi nehh #_#

2011 has been a wonderful year for me, & my family
some of the highlights:

-arrival of our 2nd bundle of joy- Firas Hadi

Alhamdulillah syukur sgt2! gembira tak terkata. sepasang dah anak saya :D
this time through normal delivery. it was kinda dramatic & traumatic i can say. haha!
eh gelak pulak. serius ni! +_+
err err tapi citer delivery tak tercerita2 lagi sampai semua org pun dah bersalin & update delivery stories derang hahaha ;p takpe2 nnt i nak update jugak coz every birth story is unique kan

-bought our 2nd house.
yg ni insyaAllah utk settle down.

pic taken on May2011
now alhmdulillah dah completed. tgh tunggu CF.
tapi we all takde plan nak pindah this year, maybe 2013 kot. no rush. so this year kena menabung byk2 utk renovate and furnish rumah. khacing!! $_$

career wise, nothing much. no promotion, no job rotation etc. (tapi sebbaik aa ada SPBA)
still doing the same job, in the very same room since day 1 i was assigned here. comfort zone katanya. tapi takpe lah, layan kan aje. kang mintak transfer belum tentu environment camne, office jauh ke, kot susah nak pump susu ke, asik kena outstation ke.. huhu tak mahuu! ada anak2 kecik ni byk nak kena pikir. biarlah hubby je yg all out keje for the time being.
but still, i wish 2012 will be more exciting.

get rewarded masa both pregnancies. rezeki anak2.

so Hello 2012!!
-i ada la a few resolutions, but i don't feel like list up them here. kemalasan.
but above all, i really want to be a better servant/person (daughter, sister, wife & mother)

-i hope i can manage my time more effectively. tidak mahu bertangguh2, & kena buat proper plan. dah ada 2 anak ni mencabar sikit. kalau dulu tangan bercabang 8, now kalau boleh nak bercabang enam belas! kdg2 bila tengok rumah bersepah, rasa mcm nak mintak maid turun dari langit +_+
ewah kemain drama, org lain anak lima nam takde maid elok je ;p

-i don't plan to get pregnant this year!
takmo pregnant tapi tak amik apape prevention lagi, pfttt! ;p

-2012 means hello to the big 3! duh!
'lebih dewasa daripada biasa' kata husband saya huhu..

eh tadi kata tanak listt down kott??! ;p

ok lah itu aje.
but hey wait, i'll leave u with someting to ponder upon (selalu dgr tapi tak fikirkan betul2)

1. MUDA SEBELUM TUA
2. SIHAT SEBELUM SAKIT
3. KAYA SEBELUM MISKIN
4. LAPANG SEBELUM SIBUK
5. HIDUP SEBELUM MATI
pls take a minute to read.

renung2kan, dan selamat beramal! ;)

Athirah's new school

2011-12-29T23:58:00.000-08:00

we decided to send Athirah to a new playschool in 2012.
so today will be her last day at her current nursery. nursery tu ok, Athirah dah ramai kawan, manja dgn teacher, dekat dgn rumah etc.. tapi kurang activities. main lego gitu2 je & tgk vcd. agak2 dah bosan, kdg2 cikgu pasang dvd kak limah la, hantu bonceng la tskkk!
i tau sbb athirah pandai bercerita pot pet pot pet. now ni dah pandai pulak, bila tgk vc hafiz adira kat tv, dia kata "mommy, Ombak Rindu mommy!"
*mommy pengsannn!* (@_@)

tapi tak pe la, ada juga benda yg dia dpt mcm new songs, alphabets, numbers, baca doa etc. dah kenal alphabets & can write them without tracing dotted2 line tu. plus, they also helped Athirah during her potty training period :)

another reason i hv to transfer her to the new school sbb since ada Firas, overtime charge nursery Athirah tinggi. coz everyday i kena fetch Firas dulu baru fetch Athirah. by the time sampai nursery Athirah, dah considered overtime. yg new school ni dekat dgn my office & rumah babysitter Firas. so senang sikit, 1 way je.

there's CIC, Brainy Bunch, Smart Reader, QDees, dkt dgn rumah i, tapi shop lot. susah sikit la nak parking, kalau hujan etc, plus i hv to tagged along Firas everytime i send & fetch Athirah. LECEH. lgpun she's only 3yo. tgk la 4yo nnt, boleh la hantar *dgn harapan school fees tak naik mencanak2* ;p

early December aritu ada Open Day, settle fees & everything.
nampak mcm dia excited la nak school situ (we've been there 3 times already).
so next week, officially start kat new school la. hopefully she's doing ok. tak de drama bagai. 1 thing yg i risau, Athirah ni jenis bangun lambat! dekat school lama boleh la angkat je from katil, nnt teacher mandikan. tapi kat new school nnt, the kids kena mandi siap2 kat rumah & pakai uniform. huhuhu.. hopefully she can adapt fast. kalau tak, ada harapan mommy dia terlewat masuk keje hari2 +_+

i suka sbb own building. luas. ada compound, playground etc.
with auto gate & ada guard.
only (parents) car with sticker can enter the school compound

pura2 behave dpn teacher baru yea ;p

stack beds

hahhaha ini pun ada ok! baru la smngat peminat2 otromen nak datang skool! ;p

borak punya borak dgn principal dia, rupa2nya soon kitorng akan jadi neighbour kat rumah baru. same row pulak tu. lenkali boleh la Athirah tumpang teacher je pegi & balik school? ;p

Firas pulak, for the time being he'll remain with the current bbsitter. so far i puas hati dgn bbsitter tu. lagipun Firas sorg je baby kat situ.

ok lah, we'll see how it goes next week.
semoga dipermudahkan urusan. Amin..

* i bet uols pun tgh sibuk dgn urusan anak2 nak masuk skolah ni ;)

cara cepat masak bubur bayi

2011-12-12T00:59:00.000-08:00

(maybe ramai dah tau cara ni, tapi saye baru je tau ;p) so saja nak share.
ada org masak bubur baby pakai slow cooker, tapi tak sure pulak bil letrik camne, sbb kalau tak silap, pakai slow cooker kena biar semalaman. kalo everynite jenuh gak tu. so far i prefer cara ni. masak hari2.

basuh beras. kuantiti agak2 utk seminggu punya stok.

keringkan beras yg dah dibasuh tu.

goreng beras tanpa minyak (utk pastikan beras betul2 kering)

then blend sampai hancur. separa hancur pun ok.

ok done!
boleh simpan dalam tupperware.

so nanti bila nak masak bubur, amik la sesudu dua & masak mcm biasa.
tapi jauh lagi cepat compared dgn masak beras mcm biasa tu. maximum 10mins je & bubur dah siap :D
(dulu masa athirah i masak bubur hari2 jugak, tapi struggle sbb took about 30mins bubur baru masak huhu..)

yg ni i campurkan kentang.
dah masak, blend.

siap!

masuk dlm tupperware/ thermos hantar kat bbsitter. utk makan pagi- tghari.
ptg Firas makan farley rusk or cerelac. (bsitter dia kata Firas mkn 2-3x kat sana huuhuhu)

ok later nak share pasal fruit puree lak ;)

WW- lazat berkrim!

2011-12-07T08:55:00.000-08:00

sumpah sedap!
bagus utk ibu menyusu ni

kthanxbye!

random!

2011-12-05T09:29:00.000-08:00

1) Power Pumping, progress so far- Alhamdulillah after 1 week (now dah stop PP), nampak 'hasil' bertambah. tak la meriah mcm dulu, tp kat office boleh la dapat around 15 oz (2x pumping). Firas pun dah menyusu mcm biasa. mebbe aritu growth spurt (tapi takkan lah sampai licinnn?!). tak pun dia saja suka2 nak minum byk2 ;p

2) Firas dah start solid food at 5m1w old. i feed him immediately after reading sab's entry. then only dia mcm 'bertenang' sikit. before start makan aritu pun berat dia dah 8.5 kg. agak semangat di situ jadi mungkinlah dia cepat lapar. mungkin la.. every baby is different kan

3) Athirah pulak down with Scarlet Fever. actually ni 1st time tau pasal scarlet fever.. teruk jugak :( i'll write an entry on this after she's fully recovered soon, insyaAllah. she's now on resolution phase (today day 12). skin peeling sana sini :(

5) on the good side, she's now diaper free, yeayy!!
pegi malls, outing semua dah xyah pakai diaper. mlm je kena letak lapik sbb kdg2 dia terkuchil ;p (tapi skang kitorng dah jadi 'toilet-alert'. pegi mana2 kena identify toilet kat mana dulu hahaha. takut tak sempat bila 'seruann' anak tiba. LOL!)

6) & she's a nice Kakak. tak jealous dgn adik. suka main agah2 dgn adik Firas.
tapi suke report kat mommy.
adik kentut busuk pun nak report kat mommy ;p

6) hubby is superrrrr busy with his work. nak sembang2 pun dah x brapa sempat :( kesian dia tido pun few hours je every nite. hopefully after dah settle nnt boleh pegi short vacation.

7) and oh, we'ols dah ada bibik yo!

bibik laki. ko ado? LOL!!
adik i cuti 1 month so dia tolong jagakan budak2 while hubby outstation.
mujur ok mujurr. kalau tak confirm dah bersilat sorg2 kat rumah.

7) we'll be hving majlis aqiqah Firas this coming saturday! baby dah bergolek merata, dah start solid baru nak naik buaian katanya;p gasak aa, jgn tergolek udah la hehe..
'mak pengantin' busy nok! dah apply cuti 3 hari katenye ;p

8) my annual leave ada balance lagi 18 hari (dah tolak cuti in Dec.)
mcm nak pegi jalan2, but i donch think Dec is not a good month to pegi jalan2.
hujan,banjir, cuti sekolah ramai org, hotel mahal etc. urmm, bercuti kat shopping malls ajelah nampaknye kite hihihi :D eh tapi shopping malls pun bahaye nowadays, asik nak meletop aje, tskk!

9) ok la tu aje. *sungguh rare tibe2 update blog memalam bute cenggini*

nite peeps! ;)

Breastfeeding- Power Pumping

2011-11-20T16:44:00.000-08:00

milk supply i merudum kaw2. ebm stock pulak habis. yes, HABIS. Yilekk!
deep freezer dah 1 week OFF :(
*i macam nak let go DF tu. anyone interested?*

frozen ebm merosot dgn pesat since 3 mnggu lepas :(

supply merudum, tapi demand sgt tinggi. Firas minum banyakkkknye tskk!
pumped kat office dpt 5-10 oz je. kalau dulu dpt jugak la minimum 15 oz.
hantar ebm ke babysitter 6x5 oz= 30 oz. usually ada balance 1 botol dia x minum. then balik rumah direct feed, but normally he'll request for more. so kena bagi ebm lagi 10 oz (2x feeding). after that direct feed lagi. then baru dia tido (around 11pm). mlm bgn lagi 2x direct feed. pengsan! (>_<) so kdg2 fresh ebm tak sempat pun nk buat bekal esoknya. asik kena top up dgn frozen ebm. sampai habissss semua, licinnn! huwaaa!

now my ebm stock ibarat kais pagi makan pagi. pump pagi minum pagi.
dpt hantar 2-3bottles je kat bbsitter. then time lunch hour i pegi rumah bbsitter to feed Firas, & bagi ebm yg dpt pumped pagi tu (usually another 2 bottles). that's the routine for the whole last week. penat pliss!

so to increase my milk supply, i tried power pumping. today is my 4th day. dulu masa breastfeed Athirah i tak penah try power pumping sbb supply takde la merudum seteruk ni. so far adelah increased sikit, tapi penatnyeeee oihh kalah lari marathon (mcm la penah lari marathon kan? hahaha ;p) tapi seriuss penat! i powerpump 2-3times daily.

Power pumping is useful as one of the methods if you’re trying to build up your stocks and stimulate your breasts to produce more milk (if you’re having problem with low milk supply).
*Power pumping = hyperstimulation

Apa itu Power Pumping?
Merupakan teknik mengepam yg boleh membantu meningkatkan penghasilan susu. Ia melibatkan teknik dan setup mengepam yg biasa tapi dlm cara yg lebih unik. Ideanya adalah utk meniru bayi menyusu secara x langsung meningkatkan bekalan susu ibu.

Siapa yang perlukan Power Pumping?
1. Ibu yang ingin menyusukan anak angkat - teknik ini digunakan untuk rangsang penghasilan susu
2. Ibu yg ingin relaktasi/ menyusukan semula si anak setelah berhenti menyusukan
3. Ibu yg kekurangan susu, berusaha untuk memperbanyakan semula susu - akibat drpd perubahan hormon, period, kurang mengepam etc.

Macam mana nak buat Power Pumping?
Untuk Single pump - pam kanan dulu 10 minit, kendian pam kiri plak 10 minit, tukar plak ke kanan 10 minit dan seterusnya, bertukar2 setiap 10 minit berterusan selama sejam.
Untuk Double Pump - Pam kedua2 belah serentak selama 10 minit, rehat/ stop pam 10 minit, sambung lagi pam 10 minit, rehat 10 minit dan seterusnya selama 1 jam. Disarankan buat power pumping ni sekali sehari, seelok2 nya waktu mlm ke subuh, sbb hormon susu sgt tinggi waktu ni.

Berapa lama masa diambil untuk dapat hasilnya? Kalian jgn igt sekali buat terus susu jadi banyak yer. Power pumping perlukan masa sekurang2nya 1 minggu! Walaupun pada hari pertama hasil pam setitik dua atau 'pam angin' semata2, teruskan misi sehingga dpt hasil yg dikehendaki. Jangan putus asa, usaha, doa dan tawakal, insyallah dipermudahkan olehNYA...amin.

Babywearing- pouch sling

2011-10-31T01:26:00.000-07:00

had a short but fun family outing last wknd.
and it was my 1st time babywearing Firas. *sbb si kakak dengki nak duduk dlm stroller jugak (+_+)*

tummy to tummy - Firas 4mo
pouch sling from Hotslings

elok je Firas duduk tercapuk dlm tu, enjoying his surroundings.
tak meragam langsung.

ok bibik, pusing the other side pulak...

mcm bibik pun bibik la ;p janji tak lenguh sgt dukung si bam bam ni.
but seriously i think this babysling hv been a great help. besides, i can enjoy the dual benefits of walking and "weightlifting" ;p

cradle hold - athirah 2mo

i've never tried diff types of bbwearing - ring sling, mei tai, wrap etc. (suka tgk org lain pakai sbb nampak stylo. tapi kang beli banyak2 pun bukan pakai semua ;p)
to me sling/pouch is just nice. sleek and simple. i pakai utk jalan kejap2 je pun.

source: manjakuhappy.com

Structured pouch/ sling

Pros:
* Very easy to use, quick to put on
* Compact sling that will fold neatly into your diaper bag
* Can be used for nursing. also as blanket.
* Excellent for quick errands/ trips/ activities.
* Versatile – can be used for newborns carry, upright carry, hip carry
* Very easy and inexpensive to make.

Cons:
* Weight distributed to only one shoulder which can be not as comfortable for a heavier baby for long periods of time.
* Must be fitted to the person, accurate sizing is very important.

Happy and safe babywearing mommies! ;)

apa kaitan?

2011-10-30T23:09:00.000-07:00

org slalu kata bila baby menyembur2 air liur, nnt gugur la rambut emak nye.
ape kaitan pun tatau. tapi memang gugur la hadoiinye punn!

postpartum hair loss tak cool

2011-10-24T21:16:00.000-07:00

Adehhh now rambut i gugur tak ingat punye u'ols!! sisir dgn tangan pun berpuluh2 helai gugur. pakai sikat lagi lah (+_+) it's falling out in clumps now :(
my hair is EVERYWHERE -on my clothes, on my pillows, on the carpet, in the drain, in my baby's hand, and all over the floor (even not more than an hour after vacuuming!) benci tau tak! :(
seriously i hv been very nervous about the amount of hair i have been losing recently. jumlahnya sgt banyak bagaikan tak boleh diterima akal. & i really thought i was going bald. Bald. Botak. tskkk! (my hair is already getting very thin in the front tho) emo bila tgk cermin!

but i found some comfort when i read these:

No, you're not going bald. This is a temporary phase. In the normal cycle of hair growth, some hair is lost every day. But during pregnancy the increased levels of estrogen in your body freezes hair in the growing (or "resting") phase of the cycle. Hair that would normally fall out stays put, resulting in thicker hair. After you give birth and your estrogen levels decline, however, all that hair that was resting starts to fall out. This usually starts the third or fourth postpartum and ends by six months, but some women say it can last for a year. This temporary hair loss doesn't mean you're deficient in nutrition or vitamins, it's simply hormonal.
-Parents.com

Postpartum hair loss commonly starts at around three months after birth. Postpartum hair loss is a normal, and temporary. The hair loss can seem more extreme if your hair grew much more than normal during pregnancy, or if you have long hair. Most women will return to their usual hair growth cycle within six months, or between 6 and 12 months after birth.
-kellymom

Many new moms are surprised to find themselves shedding more hair than usual in the first few months after giving birth, but it's perfectly normal. And there's no need to panic: You won't go bald. In fact, your hair should be back to normal by your baby's first birthday. By the way, not all women notice dramatic changes in their hair during pregnancy or the postpartum period. Among those who do, it tends to be more obvious among women with longer hair.
-babycenter.com

What can you do while you wait for your hair to return to its normal growth cycle?

Get a good haircut. Some moms choose this time to get a shorter haircut or one that requires less care.
Shampoo only when necessary and when you do it, use a thickening shampoo and conditioner. *i've tried Himalaya Anti Hair Fall Shampoo & it doesn't seem to work at all :(* previously i used Himalaya protein shampoo & dandruff shampoo- they work like magic
Use a wide tooth comb and avoid combing wet hair
Avoid ponytails or any other style that pulls your hair
Avoid blow dryers and curling/flat irons

so as short term solution, potong rambut pendek & beli sikat baru yg bagus sikit konon2nye lah. other than that, redha & bertabahkan je lah hati tgk rambut2 bertaburan tu huhu.. aritu pharmacist recommend horse tail (for supplement) but not suitable for lactating mothers la pulak.

& while browsing i terjumpa about hair tourniquet (i br tau term ni). bahaya jugak rupenye. must be more careful.

-Strands of hair can end up tightly wrapped around your baby's tiny appendages, including his fingers, toes, wrists, ankles, and penis. This is called a hair tourniquet, and it can be quite painful for your little one. If you find him crying for no apparent reason, check carefully for tight bands of hair.

so mommiess back to the topic, siapa senasib dgn saya? *sobsobbs*
what's your solution?

deep freezer for EBM

2011-09-28T18:22:00.000-07:00

beberapa kali pikir nak beli ke tak..nak beli ke tak.. last2, beli jugak deep/chest feezer ni. dpt pulak info from kakyati, malam tu jugak terus pegi tesco kajang hikhikk. angkut pakai kete sendiri je. gigih sungguh hubby sumbat bendalah ni dlm kete *tq daddy, i lebiu*

berdua lebih baik! :D

brand Faber, 100L rasanya. (x sempat belek, terus angkut je)

so settle satu problem nak simpan EBM (freezer fridge dah tak muat nak letak brg basah lain). nk pump pun macam malas2 sbb dah takde space nak simpan kan. & takut yg ada dah nak expired >3months.

to date kat rumah ni ada 48 bottles/pack, rumah mak kat kampung another 20, kat rumah mentua another 30+ (mujurlah fridge kat ofis kecik, kalo tak haruss tumpang simpan jugak ;p) campur dgn yg belum beku adalah lagi another 4-5 bottles. so total ada dlm 100+ bottles/pack of 5 & 7oz each.

setakat ni baru pindahkan separuh aje dalam DF. nak cari tupperware besar lagi utk susun ebm kemas2 dalam tu, senang sikit nk manage nnt.

Alhamdulillah syukur supply masih banyak wpon tak kerap pump (2x kat ofis, kat rumah tak pump langsung). kalau masa bf Athirah dulu, kat rumah pump lagi 3x. kali ni tatau la knapa, mebbe sbb malas, or sbb Firas kuat menyusu pun ye jugak. insyaAllah lepas ni rajin sikit la sbb dah ada DF ni & doa2 Firas masih nakkan susu mommy nya, kalau tak penat je mommy buat stok tau ;p

sape2 interested nak beli boleh la serbu Tesco Kajang sementare stok masih ade hehe.. (Tesco lain pun ada kot). oh lupa, harga rm599. tatau la kalau uols ada jumpa yg lagi murah, tapi yg ini pun saya dah puas hati :D lalalalaaa~~

syawal 1432H- melaka

2011-09-17T22:18:00.000-07:00

2nd syawal:

plannya nak gerak balik melaka pagi2, so after subuh gigih sambung packing. maklumla ada anak kecik ni barang byk macam nak pindah rumah. pulak tu dah 2 bulan berkampung kat rumah mak. tambah lagi dgn raya. dgn rendang, kuih raye, kerepek, baju raye, kasut raye & mcm2 lagila bahan muatan tambahan lain.

athirah pulak kejut2 tanak bangun. letakkan atas kusi, elok je dia sambung tido duduk. dh try mcm2 cara tanak bangun jugak. penat sgt beraye smlmnye. sudahnye angkut je masuk dlm kete, selambe tak mandi.

around 10am gerak from manjung. 2-3 kali berenti RnR sbb Firas 'tak suka' travel dlm kete. restless. tak mcm athirah, masuk kete 5 mins je komfem lelap.
sebbaik traffic ok, tak jammed. pukul 3 dah sampai melaka. Alhamdulillah.

sampai2 je mandi n terus tukar 'uniform', baju kurung nenek buatkan.
masing2 dah selemuih sbb berpeluh2 main

dah penat main lari2, main ipad pulak

whole day stay kat rumah je sbb PIL buat open house. tunggu org dtg je. ekceli ni mcm rumah hinggap kat mlk. so skali skala balik sini ramai2 best.

main bunga api satu round, lepas tu semua masuk tido awal sbb penat sgt.

3rd syawal:

bangun pagi je terus makan kuih raye.

hari ni pakai 'uniform' lagi. dress shocking pink.

with atok n nenek

main main mainn sampai basah kuyup baju

athii makan rambutan dgn atok

main bunga api dgn pak long.

4 hari stay mlk, then baru balik putrajaya.
nnt sambung cite open house pulak k. matiklah makan tak brenti2. penat je kurus time pantang & puasa sob sobbb!

syawal 1432H

2011-09-14T02:27:00.000-07:00

Eid Mubarak!

hopefully tak terlambat sgt nk wish Selamat Hari Raya kat u'ols semua! :)

blog pun dah berhabuk tebal, asyik bertangguh nk update.
my 90days maternity leave dah abis, now dah seminggu masuk kerja. so far ok sbb semua org pun tgh mood raya kan, so xde la stress sgt. Firas pun dh seminggu hantar kat bbsitter. (tapi cuti 3bulan tu mmg lah heavennn)

tgk org lain update pasal raya i pon nak update la jugak.
thn ni sepatutnye turn beraya kat melaka (kg hubby), tapi sbb leceh nak travel back & forth bawak baby kecik, kitorng raya kat my side dulu sbb kitorng mmg dah siap sedia ada kat manjung since berpantang. 2nd syawal baru balik melaka.

mlm raya tu, lepas dah setel masak rendang tok 1o kilo, testing amik gambar satu round.

saja nk try amik gambar pakai baju sama- baju melayu hubby sama dgn firas, maxi dress i sama dgn athirah. tapi mcm tak efisyen je nak pakai pagi raya kan, sbb maxi dress tak breastfeeding friendly (jenuh pulak nak selak2 kang :p). athirah pun tgh melasak mau tertumuih pulak nnt. so on pagi raya tu semua pakai baju last minute beli. firas pun, sbb yg ni too big for him. (on the other note, shopping raya thn ni paling koboi skali. just grab mana yg sempat je, xleh nak belek lama2 or guna kekdah tawaf dan u-turn kat shopping malls)

hubby pun beli lagi sepasang sbb tatahan tgk baju melayu readymade murah2. end up dia ada 3 pasang baju melayu this year, kemainn tauu.. tapi takpe la sbb dia mmg suke sgt pakai baju melayu. (kat ofis hari jumaat org semua pakai smart casual dia semangat je pakai baju melayu siap bersamping bersongkok. gigih tu naik erl naik lrt bagaikan lelaki melayu terakhir). kalau raya laaagii dia semangat, 3 hari 3 malam pakai baju melayu. tido pun pakai. seriyes tak tipu. hari keempat baru pakai jeans n t shirt. semangat kan? haha.. i layankan aje. tak kisah pun sbb org lelaki selalunye nampak lebih hensem bila pakai baju melayu kan? hikhik *gelak gatal*
butang baju melayu aku mana pahh? ;p

athirah oh athirah! +_+

pagi raya.
athirah mamai, firas moody sbb kena kejut bgn awal hehe..

lepas smyg raya, amik gambar, then balik kg yg hanye 10 min perjalanan dekatnye

sudah ada mood beraya.
athirah's raya SOP: smile- salam- amik duit raya- simpan dlm handbag- say thank you :D
(dah paham sikit konsep raya, besides pakai baju cantik n main bunga api ;p)

anak dara i. (hairclips ntah ke mana)

Firas 1st hari raya ;)

rmbut mencacak mcm daddy. xyah pakai hair gel

cousins. sama tak kekdah muka kitorng?
haaa ni baru 5 org, yg lain2 pun same je sepesen

masuk rumah ke-3, salin baju dah. panasssss!

athirah kalau naik buai confirm nyanyi "buaii laju lajuu sampai pokokk senaa apaaa dalam bajuu sekuntum bungaa cinaaa"

kul 6 balik rumah sbb siap2 nak prepare mlm nnt sedara mara nk dtg beraya. everyyear pun rumah kena serang on mlm raya pertama. penat wohh!

nasik tomato, nasik impit, rendang tok, tauhu sumbat,n roti canai panass.
layan tuuu roti canai cicah dgn rendang. tengggss mamak sbb bukak kedai time raye

budak2 skang kalau smbang, pasal i phone i pad apps je, ish ish ish

termasuk la yg sorang ni.
baik punye bodek makcik dia sbb makcik yg tu ada iphone *politik*

main bunga api

ok tu je cite raye 1st.
yg lelain kendian update lagi k? tatatititutu~~

ramadhan, breastfeeding, milkbooster

2011-08-23T17:38:00.000-07:00

ramadhan kareem..

kejap je dah 24 ramadhan kan? alhamdulillah so far saya berjaya puasa tahun ni wpon mula2 tu tak brapa confident sbb baru 5 hari habis pantang n breastfeeding = selera makan macam rasaksa gorgon. sahur tak penah skip lagi. kalau tak sahur mau melepek gak kot.

my milk supply maintained during the 1st week of ramadhan, BUT not during the 2nd week onwards. merudum kaw2! from 6 oz per side per pumping session, pernah merudum jadi tak sampai 1 oz pun! frust jugak mula2 sbb baru je abis pantang kan. tapi redha je la, hopefully lepas habis berpuasa nnt supply ok balik. hajat nak beli deep freezer pun terbantut jap sbb takut stok ebm tak banyak mana nnt huhu..

beside direct breastfeed, i pump before or after sahur, n lepas bgn tido around 9am. kalau Firas tido lama, tghari tu sempat la pump lg 1 round. ptg mmg tak pump dah sbb dah flat. mlm pun tak sbb mengantukk sgtt *_*

Firas pun dah start bottle train, n lepas try few bottle n teats, he prefers MAM. now 3-4oz per feeding, but kdg2 5oz pun dia selamba je. haihh mommy must work harder to top up ebm stock!

just nak share ape yg i mkn/minum for milk booster & pekatkan susu:

1) lobak putih, lobak merah, sawi

tumis air macam ni senang sbb boleh campur tiga2 skali :)

2) air longan kering suam

ni mmg feveret sbb sedap. kalau gian nak minum teh o (x boleh minum sgt sbb angin kan) so bile minum ni rasa macam minum teh o jugak, tp lagi sedap sbb ade buah :D

3) Milo, Horlicks, Nesvita, Barley Suam, Soya Panas

Milo/Horlicks/Soya panas for buka puasa, nesvita time sahur, barley in between. & minum air suam banyak2 from iftar to sahur.

4) Jamu lepas bersalin & Shaklee Breastfeeding set

Shaklee tu i try trial set punya. so far ok, maybe nnt nak beli yg full set, esp Alfafa.
dulu masa BF athirah, penah try Milkmaid Tea tapi tak habis pun sbb x sedap huhu, seksa nak abiskan secawan. Pil ASI n fenugreek tak penah try lagi.

5) Kurma
tiap kali bbuka n sahur mkn tak kurang 5 bijik, selalunye lebih. especially kalau kurma safina yusof taiyobbb.. *baca bisik2*

pastu ade skali tu try buat jus soya+kurma tapi mcm tak brape best. so saje la google. then terjumpa air kotak soya kurma brand drinho. aikk apsal tak penah nampak pon sebelum ni?! *mode tak puas hati*

2 hari lps tu masa pegi kedai, ternampak kotak air soya kurma tu kat atas jalan. howaahh, mana dtg ni? jatuh dari langit ke? haha punye la excited. pastu gigih cari kat kedai dekat2 tu tapi tak jumpe. then wknd tu pegi MMU hanta my sis, singgah kat minimart, ada jual air ni! lagi skali excited! ;p beli 4 kotak sbb nak try. ok la rasa dia, mcm soya + air gula mlk sikit. pastu balik mjg terjumpe kedai jual air kotak ni apelagi terus borong sepapan hehe puas ati aku kiahhh

6) kordial sarsi/rutbir

haa ni latest, baru discover 3-4 hari lepas. penah terbaca kat blog sape ek aritu tak ingat dah, dia minum kordial sarsi, milk supply dia jadi byk. so i pun cuba dh alang2 ada kordial kat rumah. minum masa bbuka, by midnite mmg dah boleh 'rasa' hasilnya. i dah try 3 hari bturut2 & i think it works on me. Alhamdulillah supply dah start banyak balik :D

u'ols macam mana? maintain? merudum?

kalau ada milk booster lain boleh la share :)

edisi berpantang- susu EBM dibawa belayar

2011-07-25T18:34:00.000-07:00

Mission:
Mengimport stock susu ebm from Mjg to Putrajaya.
Estimated travel time: 3.5-4hrs

Props needed:
1) Bekas polistrin yg org selalu buat isi ikan tu. rm5.50

2) ketul ais yg agak banyak.

pack ni kecik2. so saya guna 7 packs.

Step by step:

1. Masukkan air batu ke dalam bekas polistrin, cukup utk cover base polistrin.

2. Susun botol susu ebm di atas ais

3. Tambah ketul ais dan susun botol lagi. Buat beberapa layer as needed.

4. Layer atas skali -make sure semua botol 'terkambus' dgn ais

5. Last skali, tutup dgn suratkhabar lama (sbg penebat haba) & tutup bekas polistrin.

ok dah ready nak diimport. posing jap.

dah sampai nnt, cepat2 transfer kan ke dlm freezer semula (kalau masih beku or ada kristal2 ais) tapi kalau dah cair, kena guna dalam tempoh 24hrs. tapi ada yg kata boleh guna within 3-4days.
"susah sikit nak kluarkan botol2 tu sbb ais dah beku2 skali dgn botol. kena ketuk2 nak pecahkan." -sms from hubby a.k.a AJK logistik hihi.. jgn pecah botol udah la ye bang

Tips lain:
- Uruskan packing susu ni sbg perkara yang terakhir. setelkan brg2 lain dulu, dah nak bertolak baru pack susu2 ni.
- Letak bekas susu dalam kereta, bukan dalam boot kereta
- Travel pada waktu kurang panas mcm awal pagi or malam.

Post mortem kegagalan misi import ebm dulu: ;p
(based on pengalaman & opinion sendiri aje ye)

1- guna bekas dadih.
tak salah, tp possibility utk penutup bekas terbukak lebih tinggi compared to kalau guna botol susu. bila terbukak, susu mudah mencair.

2- terlalu byk ebm per trip
byk sgt ebm per trip (lebihkurg 60-70 bekas) sekali angkut je masa lps pantang aritu. now transfer sikit2, about 20-30 bekas per trip. hubby bawak balik sikit2 every wknd.

3- bekas polistrin besar sgt. ais tak cukup
dulu pakai bekas polistrin yg besar. so kalau tak letak ais cukup2, x cukup sejuk. or bekas dadih tu mebbe bergerak2 & terbukak. now pakai yg medium size je.

4- tak perlu check masa dlm perjalanan
aritu 2x kot check isi polistrin masa travel. berenti beli ais & top up ais. sebnrnye tak perlu, letak ais cukup2 masa kat rumah, then terus sealed aje. tak perlu bukak2 tgk, tak perlu singgah2.

5- letak dalam boot kereta
hahhaha ni mmg tak dapek nak nolong sbb mmg tatau. ingat ok je kalau letak dalam boot ;p

so bila sampai putrajaya time tu ada yg still beku & ada yg dah cair. ebm dlm botol mostly selamat, tp yg dlm bekas dadih byk yg cair. pastu pulak asik teragak2 sbb tgk susu ada layer la etc, ingatkan dah tak boleh guna (tak cukup ilmu hehe..). takpe lah, belajar dr pengalaman :)

edisi berpantang- EBM stock project

2011-07-20T23:33:00.000-07:00

berpantang kali ni, saya mula mengepam seawal hari ke-5. (kire awal kalau compare dgn dulu- 2nd week baru start mengepam sbb lambat beli pump. ilmu cetek di dada katanya).

ni stok untuk 2 minggu yg baru ni. campur dgn yg kat fridge bawah ada lebih kurang 40 botol. alhamdulillah.. stok 2 minggu pertama ada dalam deep freezer rumah mentua.

setakat ni takde jadual mengepam yg specific. slalunye lepas menyusu kan firas, or masa dia tido, or bila2 rasa susu penuh di dada haha. tak try buat tanderm pumping lagi (menyusu sebelah, memerah sebelah) sbb kadang2 firas still nk menyusu lagi (baby boy kuat menyusu?) tapi yg penting kene kerap menyusukan baby & mengepam, supaya breast selalu kosong. so that mereka akan hantar isyarat kepada otak supaya “hey buat susu lagi!”, "buat susu lagi!" :D

Kenapa perlu membuat stok susu beku yang banyak?

-mcm kes saya, beberape hari lps habis berpantang nnt, dah start puasa! takut tak larat nak pump selalu or milk supply berkurang (& risau gak nk puasa ni sbb skang selera makan macam raksaksa! kejap2 laparr, kejap2 laparrrr, grrrr!)
-katakan ada set target utk menyusu anak sampai umur 6bulan ke, 1yr ke, 2yr ke.. tatau esok2 susu masih banyak mcm skang. so sementara rezeki susu masih banyak, manfaatkan rezeki & masa yg ada. lagipun susu ibu ada pasang surutnya.
-bila period, stress, penat, akan ada effect pada pengeluaran susu

anyway, setiap orang mempunyai pendapat yang berbeza. ada ibu-ibu yang rasa tidak perlu buat stok banyak-banyak dan ada pula yang sampai beratus-ratus susu beku, depends.. Susu anda, hak anda ;p

mommy bf baby, athii pun sibuk nk bf baby dia jugak ;)

motivation saya:

1) bile tgk collection ebm stock ibu2 lain. banyakknyeee woh!

2) si bam bam ni :)

3) & dah dapat gadget idaman ni! *senyum sampai telinge* tq daddyy!! :D

kemarin hubby dah bawak separuh ebm stock saya ke KL. alhamdulillah selamat sampai, & yg paling penting, still beku. next entry nnt saya nak share kekdah import export ebm. 1st attempt (masa bpantang 1st dulu) gagalll, tett! habis rosak susu2 tu! kena buang semuanye! huhu nangis tak berlaguu ;(

edisi berpantang - cloth diaper

2011-07-18T19:32:00.000-07:00

misi nak pakaikan cloth diaper & diaper pants boleh kate agak berjaya setakat ni. so far baru habis pakai 1pack je pet pet. *jimat2* time athirah dulu, satu pek, seminggu dah habis!
& yg bestnye so far baby takde kene diaper rashes or melecet.

duduk rumah ni, dgn athirah pun ber-CD balik. nk tido malam je baru pakai DD sbb takut bocor. so 1 pc DD je per day. misi nak potty training athirah belum berjaye, mommy tak cukup ~~sabar~~ kuat lg nak terbongkok2 bersihkan tempat 'accident'.

full time duk rumah senang, campak je dlm washing machine & jemur pun best sbb cuaca panas & boleh jemur direct, cepat je dah kering. bersih berseri2 lagii ;)

*duit elaun beli pampers korang 3bulan ni, mommy buat beli ~~kasut raya mommy~~ baju raya korang la ye? ;)

firas bercukur rambut pada hari ke 13, sama hari dgn hari last mommynya berurut. (saya berurut 10 hari berturut2. fuhhh sakit2 sedap kekdahnye. tapi mmg puas hati. dulu csect takleh nak berurut bagai sgt)

sehari sebelum bercukur mommy amik gambar firas 'berambut' banyak2. esok nnt dah botak kan ;p

sayang mmg sayang, tapi amalan bercukur rambut anak yg baru lahir adalah sunat hukumnya. sunnah Nabi Muhammad SAW. (copy from blog huda)

Hikmah bercukur:

menajam dan memantapkan akal fikiran
buang segala kekotoran ketika dalam rahim dan menggalakkan rambut baru tumbuh dengan sihat

sblm cukur tu baca doa selamat sikit lead by imam.

ape la drg nak buat ni..

oh no! ;p

makcik urut yg sama tolong cukurkan. umur dah 82 tahun, tapi zass zassss laju je cukur, clear betul mata dia! tangan dia mengurut pun power lagi. padahal cucu dah 45 org! *_*

almost done! mmg smooth & licin je, kemas sgt dia cukur

adik dah 'kotak' (botak) -kata kakak athirah ;p

now rambut firas dah 5mm panjang.
agak2 sempat tak nak berambut raya nnt? hihi ;p

bday daddy

2011-07-13T21:24:00.000-07:00

happy belated birthday syg!
boleh tuju lagu? ;p

sempena nk celebrate bday daddy aritu, firas dapat green light from opah for his 1st outing! (mommy dah few times kuar dah ;p) pegi minum ptg kat kopitiam.

@27days. tembam tak?

birthday tahun ni sama hari dgn Bersih. tu yg pakai baju kuning kot?? ;p

port baeek nak bf ;)
alhmdulillah firas behave. terkebil2 usha keliling hikhik

*kendian kite celebrate lain eh daddy, anniversary aritu pun tak sempat celebrate lagi.
**we love you! xoxo

edisi berpantang : buku Berpantang Cara Alami

2011-07-08T00:00:00.000-07:00

just nk share sikit pasal buku yg saya tgh baca currently- Berpantang Cara Alami (koleksi Pa&Ma)

Ada 3 section:

a) Rahsia & petua penjagaan ibu lepas bersalin secara turun temurun.
-best, sbb utk setiap tajuk, (cth: angin, rengat, bentan etc) disertakan cdgn macam mana nk overcome or avoid problem tu secara tradisional/guna bhn2 semulajadi.

b) Panduan lengkap penyusuan susu ibu
-pun best sbb byk tips for successful breastfeeding.

c) 32 resipi berpantang enak & berkhasiat.

- yg ni pun confirmla best sbb boleh bagi idea kat mak soh masak mase pantang hihi.. tau2 dah ade atas meje je kan :D

saya mmg suke la buku ni sbb tak rajin beli Pa&Ma every month (sbb topic mcm berulang2), so yg ni best sbb dah siap2 compile A-Z.

for only rm14.50, definitely worth buying! ;)

duduk diam2 kat rumah

2011-07-07T20:45:00.000-07:00

kemarin ada org datang visit kami.
huda & family ;) parents huda pun join skali ;)

dah lama plan nak jumpa, tak terjumpa2, sbb slalu tu kitorng balik mjg pun kejap2 je. masa huda bpantang kat mjg aritu, saya pulak tgh sarat & xde balik mjg.

finally dpt jugak jumpa huda, husna & lukman. borak mcm dah kenal lama je :D padahal sblm ni tgk kat blog aje kan. husna kecik tomei je & pandai cakap. lukman pun sgt cute putih bam bam baru lepas cukur pagi tu. parents kitorng pun rancak je berborak. borak org2 pencen ;p

2011-07-05T21:00:00.000-07:00

ni masa 1st time athirah jumpa adik firas :)

sgt excited, sikit2 jenguk adik :)

bila adik nangis kakak cepat2 dtg tepuk2.
kalau tak brenti jugak, "mommy, baby firas nak susuu!" :)
so far boleh harap la setakat nak amik & buangkan pampers, etc.
good job kakak! ;)

*mommy sayang dua2, muah muah!*

edisi berpantang : Tips elak sembelit selepas bersalin

2011-07-03T22:16:00.000-07:00

rasanya sembelit (constipation) lepas bersalin is a common problem for mommies kan? sembelit berlaku adalah efek daripada drugs yang diberi semasa nak melahirkan. 1st time nak buang air besar after deliver mmg cuak.
mental betul. (tapi lagi lama kite tak buang air besar, lg tinggi chances nk kena sembelit).

masa berpantang athirah dulu, kena sembelit teruk jugak. dah la sblm tu tak pernah kena sembelit, baru tau hazabbnye macam mana huhu.. dah try mkn oren 2 bijik sehari, pati prune, minum air banyak, tapi semua tak jalan :(

alhamdulillah kali ni tak kena. lepas dinner hari ke-4 berpantang, SIL buatkan item no 1 (refer kat bawah ye), esok paginye terus membuang dgn sgt senang. so lepas tu terus amalkan. so far so good. proses perkumuhan berjalan lancar selang sehari :D so ni nak share dgn u'ols kot2 ada masalah ni boleh la cuba try test ;)

1) minum segelas air perahan limau sunkist panas/suam.
kalau campur dgn sesudu madu lebah lagi bagus. orange pulp yg lebih2 tu boleh ratah skali.

2) kalau malas nak blend or buat juice, boleh try minum jus sunquick, bancuh panas/suam.

3) Daun sawi ditumis dengan sedikit minyak masak dan sedikit air.
(sawi juga bagus utk menambah susu badan ;)

4) Lactul. selalunya kat hospital drg mmg bagi ubat ni. (pekat manis, kaler kuning cair jernih)

5) Yakult.

selamat mencuba! ;)

update- our newborn

2011-06-29T07:37:00.000-07:00

salam u'ols..
(fuhhh 2minggu tak online. prev entry tu update from hp hubby. bila upload gambar, text missing. bile type text, pic lak tak kuar. huhu.. org lain semua dah pakai BB, iPhone etc kitorng je still pakai nokia cokia ;p)

Alhamdulillah saya dah selamat deliver baby boy pada 13/6/11 aritu (same delivery day dgn rita. tak sia2 kitorang berlaga perut aritu hihi..) his weight 3.6kg, length 54cm, head 34cm. muka masa lahir macam kakak athirah, rambut cacak2 macam rambut daddy ;)

Alhamdulillah kali ni dapat deliver normal.
SubhanAllah dah dapat merasa dua mode bersalin- csect & normal (yg ni cite kendian ye)
& dah sepasang anak kami, seronok sgt rasanya, syukurr :)
thanks hubby, for everything. i love u byk2.

thanks for all the well wishes, tak sempat nak reply satu2.
sorry sgt pada kawan2 yg saya tak sempat nak sms/inform earlier. lepas deliver aritu saya x brapa sihat, banyak hilang darah, so asik pitam aje. kena banyak rest. mmg tak ramai visitor.

past 2 weeks berpantang kat rumah PIL @klang. plan asal nak balik berpantang kat rumah mak @manjung, but due to some reasons, last minute tukar plan. & kebetulan MIL dapat booked makcik urut for 10 hari berturut2, so pantang kat klang je la. kemarin baru balik mjg.

terima kasih sgt kat mak mentua sbb amik cuti berhari2 jagakan saya & baby, prepare kan ape yg patut. pak mentua saya yang hari2 amik & hantarkan makcik urut tu, cari daun megkudu, daun sireh, daun jmbu, belikan manjakani, gula kundur, & mcm2 lagi lah plus mandi & jagakan hal ehwal athirah. kakak & adik ipar yg gilir2 amik cuti bila MIL pulak kerja. preparekan bhn2 utk makcik urut urut saya & mandikan baby. masakkan breakfast lunch dinner. adik ipar yg tgh praktikal pulak hari2 tolong asahkan manjakani before pergi kerja. terhutang budi rasanya. beruntung dpt in laws yg supportive mcm ni. nnt la kalau ada masa & rezeki lebih kitorng blanja pi holiday ke eh? ;)

baby boy ni, namanya Firas Hadi
(Firas: yang cerdik, tajam fikiran. Hadi: yang memimpin).

Alhamdulillah so far Firas tak banyak ragam, boleh kate senang nak handle. 1st week tu kitorng risau jugak sbb dia SANGAT jarang menangis (compared dgn athirah masa newborn). bagi susu, tido. kalau bangun, dia diam je, tgk2 keliling. bila haus, merengek sikit. kdg2 mmg biar sampai dia nangis kuat sikit, baru susukan.
2-3 kali tanya doctor ok ke baby mcm tu, takut problem ape baby pulak kan. doctor kata setengah baby mmg mcm tu, 'tak banyak ragam'. hopefully betullah, Firas mcm paham2 mommy dia sakit & kena banyak rest :)

oklah takat ni dulu. dah lama tak online, banyak benda nak 'qada'

nora elena minggu last & maharaja lawak final tak sempat tgk lagi hihi.. (bahaya kalau tgk awal2, mau tetas jahit kalau gelak kuat2 nnt ;p)
nak blogwalking & online shopping juge :D
berpantang internet aritu sama susah dgn berpantang lepas bersalin ;p

WW- Alhamdulillah..

2011-06-22T08:56:00.000-07:00

week40++

2011-06-10T00:15:00.000-07:00

3days past EDD but still no sign of labour yet! :(
mashaAllah i never expect baby was going to stay this long in my tummy. too comfortable inside maybe? ;p
athirah dulu pun overdue, tapi at least before tu ada blood show. yg ni takde langsung huhu..

last check up doc checked baby dah engaged, but position is still 'high'. air ketuban banyak, heart rate ok, tapi berat dah 3.8++kg! tapi doc kata perut tak nampak mcm 3.8kg, hopefully less than that la. doc advice try normal delivery dulu, so she allowed me to wait +6days. which means if still no labour pain by this wknd, ahad kena admitted, then isnin pagi induced. doc kata hopefully sakit datang naturally before that sbb kalau sakit dtg naturally, higher chance utk success normal delivery, compared kalau kena induced. besides, baby besar, takut ada problem lain pulak.

huhu tak bestnyaaa.. tatau nak cakap mcm mana :( sampaikan ada terfikir nak go for planned c-sect siap2, sbb takut frust after all the waiting game, courage & effort, end up emergency c-sect :( that can be so frustating!! nasib baik doc, mak & hubby kuatkan jugak suruh try dulu & tgk macam mana. apapa pun nanti, redha je lah. janji both mommy & baby selamat, insyaAllah.

but seriously dah tak larattt. tak sabar pun ye jugak. huhu.. now kena pegi buat CTG selang sehari to monitor baby's heart rate. so far ok. normally lepas isya ada rasa mcm contraction, sampai midnite, tapi lepas tu hilang terus, haih frust hokey.

but i'm still hoping for the best.. me&hubby is making loads of doa so that i can deliver naturally. but Allah SWT knows best, what ever happens within the next few days, its whats meant to happen... doakan ye kawan2.. sob sobb.. *emo*

WW- harumanis

2011-05-31T20:54:00.000-07:00

smalam pegi pasar malam terjumpa gerai jual mmpelam harum manis.
dgn konpiden "bang, bagi 3 bijik". rm18 hengget katenye. huhu mahal jugak ek. slalu beli mmpelam kat sitiawan rm10 boleh dapat 7-8 bijik ;p

tapi xpe la bukan senang nak dpt harum manis ni. setahun sekali je musim dia. tu pun kena pi cari kat perlis. ni dah ada depan mata beli la sikit buat rasa. mmg mavelesss. sedapp pliss :D

pergh merembes!

ada satu soalan

2011-05-30T19:58:00.000-07:00

masa belek2 buku nak cari nama anak kan, byk terjumpa nama2 yang maksud dia 'nisbah'.

ada sapa2 tau tak apa maksud dia sbnrnya? nisbah mcm mana? or ada explanation lain?

contoh

TQ! ;)

bawal power. dan sebagainya

2011-05-29T20:30:00.000-07:00

penah dgr pasal bawal power?

sedapp woo.. seriyess!
baru2 ni pun ada masuk JJCM. ada 2 outlet: 1 kat sunway damansara (dah 4 kali mkn kat sini) & 1 lg kat uptown damansara (x penah pegi)

geng2 yg duduk area dsara asik2 update status FB tgh makan kat bawal power.. kite yg jauh ni telan air liur je la huhu.. so ahad lepas mmg ada hal nk gi dsara, ckp kat hubby jom pekena lunch kat bawal power! pagi tu roger2 budak2 ni ON JOM bawal power! :D

set bawal power, rm10/set-
ikan bawal goreng yg panas (customer order baru drg goreng) & rangup (makan bunyi kruk2) served w kuah kari penang, ulam, sambal kicap & sambal belacan... perghhh nikmat weh nikmatt! *skang dah terliur balik*
(ada jugak ayam or ikan lain mcm ikan keli etc. tapi i paling suka bawal)

thanks geng sbb temankan mak buyung sakit mata yg mengidam bawal power hihu :D

ni jimmy punya. ada kedai baru asam pedas. dah asam pedas, ada pulak ayam penyet. cam best gak ni.

food court tanjung village (blakang sunway giza). tempat luas & selesa kalau nak bawak budak2. tapi kalau pegi tghari panas sikit la sbb open air. kitorng kalau lepak sini kurang2 3 jam. lps nasik, pekena rojak la mee rebus la, western la. air kurang2 3 gelas sorang ;p

mak belang anak belang
mata bengkak mcm orang lps nangis putus percintaan

lps tu gerak pi rumah ratna. tolong dia buat preparation kenduri kawen. masukkan bunga telur je pun. ektiviti camni mmg sesuayy sgt la sambil catch up gossipzz kan :D minum petang provided. terbaek. makan lagi dan lagi.

lepas tu main laga perut dgn rita. hikhik. kitorang beza 10days je :D
mmeber2 lain kagum bila tgk kepesatan tumbesaran perut kitorng hihi. "whoaaa" "woooh" mcm tu la sound efek mereka bila selak2 perut kitorng.

amik gamba from dua angle. baru aci :D

balik tu dah nak masuk maghrib. so melencong pi ikea solat jap, tak beli ape pun.

then dinner kat marche.
layan rosti nyamnyam & pekena teh tarik :D

athirah nyanyi 'moo moo here.. moo moo bear (there) ;p'

before balik layan tutti fruitti pulak. haihh banyak betul makan & minum aritu. belum berpantang dah balas dendam siap2 ;p

wknd yg best. sbb dpt lepak dgn member2. dgn hubby & athii, after 2 wks terperap kat rumah sbb sakit mata ;)

4th anniversary!

2011-05-28T12:59:00.000-07:00

side by side, year by year.. happy anniversary hubby!!

i love u to the bones! xoxo ;)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
update- mlm tu takde plan for any celebration pun sbb hubby bz ada training. skali dia sampai rumah around 930pm terus ajak kluar dinner. so paling dekat alimanda la (athii's vocab: alimanda = alamanda ;p)

athirah geram tgk dessert!

terjumpa my roomate kat U dulu, lama gile dah tak jumpe

4years & counting <3

baby bump @38wks.
boleh tak ari anniversary tu baby kurang gerak?! bikin saspen betulla. jenuh goyang2 perut tapi dia mcm buat derk aje tak gerak2. normally by afternoon dah cukup 10movements. tp aritu by12pm langsung takleh rasa movement dia huhu.. cuakk ok. nak pegi hosp ke tak. tapi instinct rasa mcm belum nak deliver lagi. & cuba sedapkan hati baby ok. ckp kat hubby by malam kalau less than 10movements mebbe boleh prepare nk gi hosp.
so by 9pm dpt detect mcm 6 movement je. tapi selamba tak pegi hospital sbb nak makan sedap punya pasall ;p sebbaik lepas dinner tu dia buat 'celebration' dalam perut. dush sana dush sini sampai senak perut mommy! alhamdullilah sebbaik takde pape..

thx daddy for the bouquet of roses! (athii yg excited lebih :D)

& for the present too! *lompat2* :D

happy anniversary dear, sayang kamu sangat2! :D
*ikhlasss ni, bukan sbb baru dapat hadiah hihi ;p*

Project CD

2011-05-26T22:45:00.000-07:00

kali ni plan nak start berCD awal sikit.
athirah dulu start lambat, dah 1y.o *lambat sampai seru* ;p

1) recycle CD lama
-CD athirah yg lama still in good condition wpon dah pakai around 1yr. kalau nak tukar pun mebbe tukar inserts je.

2) brand
CD ni ada mcm2 brand & jenis. i pun bukannye pandai sgt bab ni (boleh refer blog hanz- dia expert hehe..). so saya beli sikit2 satu brand & tgk mcm mana. kalau puas hati baru beli lagi. (ada yg kecik & nipis sikit, ada yg tebal tp lambat nak kering) etc. depends la u'ols prefer yg mcm mana.
so far saya tak penah beli CD yg kategori mahal2 lagi mcm grovia etc. dulu sbb budget so beli yg murah2 aje hehe.. lepas ni mebbe boleh la try kot sbb stok pun dah boleh tahan banyak.

3) diaper pants
ni baru nak try pakai. sbb konon2 dlm confinement nnt nak pakai kan baby lampin biasa je. pakai lampin, then pakaikan diaper pants ni. kalau malas nak kotor2 bila baby poo-poo, boleh letak nappy liner.

yg ni mmg utk newborn. kecik & nipis je. cost about rm 7-10 each.

kat dalam dh siap ada lapik plastic. so takyah pakai lapik plastik asing mcm mak kite buat dulu2 hehe..
& ada pocket jugak mcm CD. mebbe boleh masukkan insert CD mcm pakai CD.
*sbnrnye ni agak2 aje sbb tak penah pakai sblm ni, kalau salah or sape2 nak share experience sila share ye :D

dah beli insert spare jugak.
hopefully berjaya la mission kali ni. dapat jimat duit beli dispo diapers (athirah time confinement dulu sehari tukar sampai 10-12pcs huhu) & go green! :D
lagipun mesin basuh kan ada, masuk & putar je. kalau ada maid lagi senang cite ;p

random

2011-05-23T11:06:00.000-07:00

1) Alhamdulillah, sakit mata almost gone.
tinggal bengkak sikit lagi & kesan sembab mcm org lps nangis. huhu tobat kalau boleh x nak kena lg dah, seksa.. wpon MC berderet2 sampai 3minggu tapi x leh nak buat ape pun- cuaca skang tgh panas gile + aritu siap jerebu lagi, bdn pulak tgh sarat & tak larat nk g shopping ke jln2 ke pi holiday ke. nak online pun x best sbb mata perit & blur2 je. duduk memerap kat rumah baring tido je lah.
mula2 kene sebelah je, then terjangkit lak kat sebelah lagi. agaknye sbb mlm2 tido asik tukar position ngiring kiri kanan kan. last week jumpa doc pakar dia korek2 sket buang selaput, baru ok huhuhu... so now still on MC smpai end of this week. (sbb doc tu tak agak2 bagi MC straight 9 hari, hamekk!)

2) seminggu ni susah betul nak lena.
paling awal boleh tido 3am! before tu baby akan sgt aktif smpai senak n rasa terkembang kuncup dibuatnye. huhu sakit.. *practicing mode berjaga malam dah start ;p* lepas ni babai la malam2 indahku huhu.. :p

3) kalau boleh nk deliver ASAP sbb rasa x larat dh nak buat semua benda, berat smcm. kat bwh tu rasa sakit sngal2. last week punya check up doc scan baby dah 3.4kgs!! *aiyayaya!* kalau boleh xnak baby besar2 sgt sbb teringin sgt nk bersalin normal kali ni (kalau diizinkan Allah, amin). tapi xpelah, tgkla mcm mana nnt, hopefully dipermudahkan. kita hanya mampu merancang.. (tanak pressure sgt bab ni huhu)

4) tapi kalau dpt deliver end of this week pun would be nice sbb abah & adik dah balik from umrah. mak pulak start cuti sekolah. senang sket kalau semua org ada. boleh tolong jagakan athirah. Athii nak dpt adik ni biasa la mengada & clingy sket, esp dgn daddy dia.

5) lega sikit sbb dh submit proposal utk scholarship smbung study. siap jugak wpon last minute! tu pun aci tibai je, janji siap. org lain siap buat reference jumpa lecturer etc. dah sakit mata nak jumpe org pun susah. kalau ade rezeki adelah, kalau xde cube lagi next time. yg best sbb blajar full time, gaji jalan, allowance pun dapat. tak ke mcm best tu? (padahal malas nak kerje sbnrnye hihi ;p)

6) Medela FS belum beli lg, asikla dok browse handbag online haha apakah?! *ada percanggahan nafsu di situ*

7) Lamaze inchworm ada balance beberapa ekor lg. more than 50pcs sold. (hubby kata i penjual cacing berjaya hihi). Eh ni apa kaitan? ;p

8) Nama baby belum confirm lagi. bukan sbb byk sgt shortlist, tapi sbb xde list langsung huhu. mcm masa athirah dulu la, i dah terpikir & berkenan nk letak nama Athirah, tu je lah sampai ke sudah. hubby pun suggest 1 nama blakang, so thats it. huhu.. bunyi mcm ibubapa pemalas tapi xpelah, rasanya kami x fussy sgt bab2 nama ni. yang penting ada makna yg baik2, xperlu yg style2 sgt. biar senang sebut, senang nak tulis kat kertas exam esok2.

9) hmmm ape lagi nak bebel ni. dah pukul 2pg tapi still x ngantuk.

10) oh smalam (ari ahad) sgt seronok sbb dpt buat macam2. tp nnt la cite sbb xleh nak transfer gambar, cable hilang tskk!

*thanks to readers yg hantar email tanya psl hal ehwal pregnancy, hospital, umrah etc. tak sempat nak reply lagi, insyaAllah i'll try to reply asap.

**al Fatihah utk mangsa2 tanah runtuh rumah anak2 yatim kat hulu langat kemarin. sedih sgt rasanya. hanya mampu tersedu sedan baca paper kat rumah & mendoakan mereka semua ditempatkan di syurga, Amin..

TGIF... sudahnya minggu ni 2 hari je keje, 2 hari cuti jaga athirah.
hopefully by next week dia sembuh la. Aminnn..

btw,
TGI Friday's now dah ada kat Alamanda u'olss!
i pun tak pegi lagi (x sure kat mana tapi rasanya mcm kat wing yg ada Cozy Corner dulu kot?)

takyah susah2 i nak pi jauh2 dah :D (mcm last 2wks teringin nak makan choc mud pie, kena pegi subang parade huhu)

Baru je bukak seminggu dua ni rasanye & katenye akan jadi 1st restoran TGI Friday's mendapat sijil halal :D - source

harus terjah ni! nyam nyammm :D

sedih :(

2011-05-04T18:10:00.000-07:00

dah seminggu athirah sakit mata, dah 3 kali pegi klinik, tapi still tak ok.
bila bengkak kurang, mata pulak jadi merah menyala :(

sedih tau tgk dia mcm ni :( emo pun ye jugak :(
merengek2 tak selese & mengamuk sbb kena paksa letak ubat mata :(
nak hantar nursery tak boleh sbb takut berjangkit lak kan.
terpaksa gilir2 cuti/EL dgn hubby jaga athirah kat rumah.
get well soon sayang, tskk! :(

*ape lagi boleh buat/petua kalau anak sakit mata eh?
jgn soh titik EBM pulak, dah kering dah huhu

shopping sket

2011-05-04T00:15:00.000-07:00

dah hujung2 pregnancy ni baru dtg mood nak shopping2 sket

1) online shopping- onebabyworld

i beli adjustable wrap, drying rack, zip lock ebm storage/liner & hooded blanket.
yg lain tu my roomate punye. (kebetulan roomate kat ofis pun sama pregnant, EDD kitorng beza 1 week je. mcm pakat2 pulak kan hehe..)
beli above rm200 free delivery yeay :D

paling puas hati beli adjustable infant wrap ni. material dia sgt best! tak tebal sgt & sgt lembut. dah la murah, rm31 je (aritu usha kat kedai rm49)

dulu athirah bedung pakai napkin je, harussss lah senang dia bolos keluar kaki, tangan semua. hopefully pakai yg ni kemas sket nak bedung baby.

2) gerai2 kat bawah ofis

-tuam baby +herba. rm10/pc
-bedung moden (ala2 mcm wrap kat atas jugak, tp kain kurang best. rugi sbb dah terbeli yg ni dulu)
-barut baby

3) mothercare

sempena opening outlet baru @alamanda, purchase of rm400 in April dapat membership free. (slalunye kena collect rm800 in 3 months kan). so beli la sket baju2 for athirah & baby. so lepas ni takyah mengendeng member card org dah ;p

- breastpad tu mcm murah la, 100pcs for rm39. kalau member price ada less lagi. tapi tatau la best ke tak pakai, never tried b4.
- lagi satu i suka strechmark cream MC yg packaging baru ni. bau dia wangi. rasa nak apply satu badan.

4) Kain baju raya

dah sarat2 pun gigih pi Jalan TAR ;p
mak dah pesan soh beli awal2 sbb nnt pantang mebbe sampai or dekat2 bulan puasa. takut tak sempat nak tempah. konon nak pegi area arked tu tapi huhu tak laratt, seriyes. end up borong kat gulatis aje semua. selesa sket ada aircond & sofa ;p
kain sendiri, mak & mil- settle. athirah & hubby punye nnt beli ready made aje lah.

nota kaki sendiri: yg belum beli- set bersalin, breastpump, & maybe nak try shaklee supplement for bf, ~~handbag raya~~, ~~ipad2~~ etc2..

nota kaki kepada suami: bonusmu bonusku jua... hahahha lariiiiikk!

EL

2011-05-02T23:22:00.000-07:00

get well soon sayang, dah 4 hari ni :(

week33

2011-04-26T20:25:00.000-07:00

(33th week check up -last week)

mommy:
doctor baru perasan i gained weight dgn sungguh sedikit : only 3kg after 33 weeks of pregnancy!
- sgt rare katenye. tapi dia kata OK sbb baby membesar accordingly.
- pregnancy kali ni ok jugak sbb awal2 tu lost 1-2kgs je, compared dgn 1st pregnancy tu berat turun sampai 5-6 kgs! lps tu baru gained balik 7kgs.
- bagus jugak tak naik banyak, sbb i mmg 'tak brapa nak kurus' la kan before pregnant pun ;p so hopefully boleh lose more kgs after delivery nanti.
- braxton hicks contractions agak menjadi2 lately huhu sakitt! feeling2 mcm dah dilate gitu ;p
- driving pun sgt tak selese.
- tido malam2 ape lagi, hazabb. + kdg2 sesak napas sikit2
- 1st pregnancy dulu rasanya tak la sakit mcm ni, hmm.. ntah la ingat2 lupa. padahal baru 2 thn lepas. mcm mane la agaknye org yang pregnant gap 7-10 tahun cenggitu huhu.. sure badan mcm 'terkejut' balik kot?
- jalan dah kena slow2, ala2 penguin pun ade.
- kaki tak bengkak, hidung belum kembang ;p

gambar 4 hari lepas kat wedding
baju ulang tayang ;p tu je yg muat nak pakai pi kenduri

gambar harini.
agak vain terpakse amik gambar mcm ni tapi gasaklah. baru prasan tak banyak (ke mmg takde?) amik gambar pregnant kali ni huhu..

baby:
- berat baby now 2.6kg
- baby is camera shy, takmo pandang 'camera'. jenuh mommy mengiring bagai pun tapi tak nampak jugak. last2 ni je shot yg doc print:

wachaaaa!
sian mommy tau baby, dpt tgk telinge & kaki kamu aje ;p

- doc kata air ketuban lebih sikit. so kena buat MGTT test. huhu 1st time buat ni. dulu tak kena. sucks ok punye la pekat sampai loye & pening dibuatnye. dah la kena puasa kan seblm minum air gula tu, pastu kena tunggu lagi 2 hrs. tak best :(
- my mom kata biasanye family kitorng kalau baby boy selalunye deliver dlm 2 wks earlier, kalau girl lambat sikit. hmm.. tgk la camne nnt. hopefully selamat semuanya, insyaAllah.

*seronok bila dapat news makin ramai kawan join korum baby 2011 :D

wedding caddy

2011-04-18T21:27:00.000-07:00

caddy dah sebulan lebih kawen, baru nak update ;p
ni reception kat paroi, seremban. from putrajaya 1st time kitorng ikut LEKAS, mmg lekas sungguh la. tak sampai setengah jam kot dah sampai rumah pengantin. bagus betul.

sempat jumpa nieda, tapi tak sempat nak amik gambar sama. kecik molek aje orgnye ;)

seronok dapat jumpa kwn2 lama ;)

me & maa - 28th weeks o pregnancy :)

(1st trial pakai tudung ala2 ~~cornhead~~ syria. dah alang2 tgh bulat kan, at least kalo org cakap bulat time pregnant, tak brapa nak kecik hati sgt la ;p tapi despite of kebulatan, mcm best pulak sbb material sgt selesa & senang nak pakai :D)

In The Womb

2011-04-14T21:19:00.000-07:00

mommies, mom-to-be, mesti tengok! daddies, yg dah kawen ke, belum kawen ke, sape2 je la, u shud watch this too! amazing, & sgt touching.. jgn lupa on speaker ye :D

arini MC

2011-04-14T00:07:00.000-07:00

sbb sakit satu badan!- blakang, pinggang, kaki, kepala semua lah.
bergolek2 sampai kul 11 pastu gi klinik amik MC.

konon nak kemas2 rumah tapi macam tak larat pulak.
so just basuh ada sikit lagi brg baby mcm barut, bedung, blanket, towel & washcloth. hopefully this weekend boleh settle packing huhu.. dah 2-3 minggu pending packing, sbb asik membasuh tak sudah2. (basuh on wknd je, sbb kalau wkdays tak dpt nak jemur direct bawah matahari)
1st wknd aritu basuh semua baju2 athirah yg boleh pakai balik,
2nd wknd - basuh baju2 baru adik pulak.

lepas dah campur2

so this wknd nak abiskan yg balance, esp accessories lain yg kecik2 tu.
& kena start selongkar stor balik cari 'gadjet' - playpen, baby carrier, bakul baby, tilam, etc2.
utk hospital bag- lps attend antenatal class aritu, ada kena adjust sket barang mana yg perlu/tak perlu bawak. nnt i try buat entry lain psl ni for self reminder. barang2 mommy ape pun tak prepare lagi tskk!

ni off topic kejap, lets look what i hv in my fridge & freezer currently:

-berkotak2 air buah & susu.
dulu time pregnant athirah penuh dgn susu, tropicana twister orange, & air soya.
kali ni mcm asik nak minum manis2. (tapi bila minum air2 buah ni i mesti cmpur dgn air masak sbb manis sgt).
pulak tu F&N fruit tree tgh buat promotion 1kotak rm3.99. sunkist lak rm3.49. tu yg every week asik top up stock ;p

- 4 botol EBM expired ;p
ni antara stock2 last ebm time BF athirah dulu. yang lain dah lama buang, tinggalkan 4 botol buat 'kenang-kenangan'.ala2 simbolik penyusuan susu ibu gitu ;p
ye la, sedehhh ooo bila anak dah weaned off & reject ebm :(
insyaAllah in plus minus 2 months time i'll be a breastfeeding mom again! cant wait! :D

WW - 'kakak'

week31

2011-04-06T01:25:00.000-07:00

*fuhhh lemah betul nak update blog ni*
dari sehari ke sehari asik bertangguh.

sgt busy kat ofis coz skang involved dgn satu team task force. duduk memerap dalam satu bilik, buat programming sama2, dari pagi sampai petang. dah sebulan hokeyy. mmg terasa efek nye kat badan ni- sakit belakang, sakit pinggang, semua lah :( bila balik rumah mmg dah tak larat la nak bukak pc ke online ke ape.

smlm mmg tak tahan sangat, nak berjalan rasa sakit/sengal kat bawah tu, tido pun tak selesa, sakit pinggang & belakang, so pegi berurut kat makcik urut versatile precint11. dekat 2 jam dia urut, mmg puas hati. sakit la sikit menahan dia urut tulang2 belikat tu. urat bersimpul2 katenye.. tapi arini 'ringan' sikit rasa badan. pastu i nak vangge kejap voley? sbb dia puji kulit perut i cantik takde strechmark langsung. macam perut anak dare katenye hikhik. kulit la ye, bukan saizzzz! haha ;p

btw, kemarin pegi check up. dah masuk 31 wks yeay! so check up every 2 weeks. seronok pegi check up sbb dapat 'tengok baby' :)

baby dah 2.2kgs! baby gained 600g in 2weeks time! (aiyoo ada lebih kurang 10wks lagi- ntah brapa la beratnye time keluar nnt)

ni masa 5mnths++ kot, baby baru 800grams

ni yang latest @31 week- 2.2kg
tak clear sgt sbb dia tgh mengiring. tapi nampak cam bam bam kan ;p

nampak gaya mcm ada iras kakak athirah jugak

athirah masa umur 1 hari :D

next monday nak attend antenatal class. time pregnant 1st dulu dah attend, tapi kali ni nak pegi lagi :D

weee excited pulak dah hujung2 ni. tak sabar nak ~~cuti 3 bulan~~ jumpa baby. hopefully semua nya selamat dan dipermudahkan, Amin.. doakan ye kawan2 :)

hello hello uols!

adeh lamanye rasa tak update blog..
bukan tak update blog je, tak blogwalking, tak online FB, tak reply email, kdg2 sms pun tak reply. kalau boleh nak jumpa org pun malass. ala-ala anti social kekdahnye. kepada sesiapa yg berkenaan harap maaf ye. ibu mengandung ni mengalami depression lately :(

seriously these past 2 weeks sungguh sucks dan tak best.
sungguh tak best dan tak ingin nak cerita balik. bluerghhhh! kesian baby, hopefully dia tak terkena tempias moody mommy dia ni :(

btw i'm now in 3rd trimester already! tapi asik la malas makan supplement, mengelat sapu strechmark lotion (boleh tak pregnant kali ni tak beli strechmark lotion langsung? pakai yg balance2 time pregnant dulu je), & tak minum susu! tskk!!
lil baby is now weighting at 1.6 kgs (patutnya around 1.1-1.2kg mcm tu je) mebbe sbb mommy suka sgt makan cekelat & mempelam ;p

hmmm ok tu je lah nak bebel ptg ni.

warehouse sale- review

2011-02-24T23:52:00.000-08:00

*ni personal review aje ye.

1) Bebe's home whouse sale-
baju2 tak best. tapi okla sbb ada byk jugak toys (soft toys, playgym, etc) diaper bags.

2) WOB whouse sale-
kalau bebe's tak best, WOB lagi la tak best huhu. & tak murah mana. baju WOB lambak2 dlm kotak kat Sogo pun lagi murah & banyak choice tsk!

tapi tempat selesa la, parking pun senang.
kalau nak byk choice, both outlets ada kedai kat tingkat bawah. (whouse sale kat tingkat 1).

sudah nye i spent 30 hengget je- 3 psg baju. tak memberangsangkan betul.

sebbaik kat block tu ada kedai2 lain mcm FOS & Reject Shop yg besar. & kat sebelah tu ada philippines/ thai market. boleh la cuci2 mata & shopping benda lain.

2) Sogo whouse sale-

sampai2 terus cari benda ni dulu:

rm38.90 dapat 16 bottles! murah pliss!

rasanya prev Sogo whouse sale lagi best sikit kot. kali ni mcm kurang sikit barang & takde make up/ perfume section. baju2 baby & budak mmg banyak la. cuma larat tak larat nak bersesak2 la kan, esp kalau kat dalam hall tu.
hazabss i tell yew!

yg section bumble bee ni kat luar. bottles, beddings accessories, bantal, sarung bantal segala tu 50% off. baju2 budak pun ada kat luar tp tak banyak sgt. fisher price punya car seat, baby carrier, stroller yg baru launched pun ade. mamy poko murah katenye. tapi i tak pakai so tatau la brapa murahnye. lagipun kalau boleh mmg nak elak beli barang2 dlm hall sbb queue nak bayar panjang & sesak. [tips: bayar kat cashier counter kat luar lagi cepat]

i akhiri review tak brapa review ini dengan..

tamak tak tamak tak? ;p
8 kotak katanyaa
bumblebee breastpad pun murah ;)

susun skali dgn Avent pump, Spectra3 dlm kotak, Avent bottles, MLO bottles.
tapi bottles MLO tu kena sort balik. ada yg dah xnampak label, ada yg dah calar2. puas pakai :) lagipun i tak pandai sgt simpan guna liner. pakai botol senang- pump, storage, feeding.

errr.. tapi mcm ada something missing la..
bile agaknye medela FS nak join korum ye? hikhikk *sambil cucuk pinggang sang suami* ;p

banjirr o banjirrr

2011-02-24T17:05:00.000-08:00

sebelum review pasal warehouse sale (i pegi tiga2 skali ;p), nk cite pasal lain jap.

from nilai, terus drive pi sogo. agak kamikaze di situ sbb dah bertahun2 rasanya tak drive sendiri pegi kl. wkdays pulak tu. slalunye 'driver' yg bawakkan. adelah sesat sikit sbb termasuk area bangsar. berkat keazaman shopping yang tinggi, dptlah kembali ke jalan yang benar katanya.

sampai sogo around 1 pm, jumpa hubby kat sana. shopping dgn tangkas sekali, dpt ape yg dihajati, zass terus balik. hantar hubby balik menara TN (bukan nama sebenar)

elok2 je gerak from menara, tu dia hujan lebatttttt gile ok. tak nampak depan. bila stop kat traffic light angin punya kuat sampai bergegar2 kete. slow2 aa redah federal. pulak tu handphone buat hal- offline allllll the way sampai putrajaya. saspen ok saspen. certain tempat air dah start naik, tapi still boleh lalu la.
apape pun alhamdulillah selamat sampai rumah.

balik rumah tgk ada member upload gambar ni kat FB. kat TMTC kalau tak silap.

sadis tak?
belah kanan bawah tu terus jadi submarine huhu. tinggal arial je.

kesian kan. tkleh imagine kalau kerete sendiri yg kena :(
err kalo camni insurance tak cover kan?
nangis oo

warehouse sale lagi! dan lagi.

2011-02-23T16:57:00.000-08:00

arini i ambik cuti u'ols
ada few things nak kena settlekan.
serta rasa ~~malas~~ tak brapa larat nak kerja jadi applylah cuti. ok la dari ponteng ke ape kan ;p lagi pun takde meeting or anything urgent arini. *hopefully lah*

tgk2 ada a few warehouse sale start arini. mentang2 gaji masuk arini terus warehouse sale katenye.
ni tgh pikir2 nak pegi yang mana satu.
kalau bab2 warehouse sale ni, i rajin pegi on wkdays je, kalo wknd tak sangggup, sure sesak tak hingat huhu..

yg dua ni kat tempat sama- nilai.
mebbe nak pegi yg ni sbb kira dkt la jugak. hopefully byk choice so boleh beli barang2 baby sikit & baju basah athirah.

pastu mlm tadi ada terjumpe plak ni:

haish ni pun godaan gak ni. last time amik cuti sbb nak pegi beli car seat .
tadi usha2 catalog dammnn ternampak pulak satu benda menarik tertarik huhu.. tapi mcm tak larat pulak nak pegi sorang2 :(

tgk la kang mana yang terdaya. mintak2 berbaloi la kalo pegi pun.

*ada sapa2 nak pegi arini? roger2 eh (roger kat henpon tau)

ok i gerak dulu. baibai ;)

checklist. kali ni.

2011-02-22T19:21:00.000-08:00

tiba2 rasa nak buat checklist barang nak beli katanya.

masa 1st pregnancy dulu, start shopping barang2 baby masa nak masuk 7mnths pregnant. so kali ni lebih kurang sama timing aa.
tapi this time kurang sikit la barang yg nak dibeli kan, sbb mostly barang2 lain dah ada ;)

1) medela FS howyeah!

-wpon dah ada Spectra3 & Avent ISIS manual, tetapp mahu beli ini! *kenyit2 mata kat suami*
err agak2 kenyit mata aje cukup ke? ke perlu ~~goda~~ berusaha lebih lagi? ;p

2) utk Spectra 3:
-nak ganti tubing, valve & membrane (lebih kurang rm15 each)

& nak beli spectra silicon massager. kasi lapik, baru selesa sikit ;p

*semangat ni nak breastfeeding semula! tak sabar ok! :D
semoga ada rezeki baby nak menyusu nanti, insyaAllah.

3) diaper bag

-ni baru nak survey2.

4) bottle steriliser

-dulu sterilise manual je. kali ni baru nak beli bottle steriliser.
ada suggestion tak brand apa yg best? yg boleh fit semua jenis botol?

5) feeding bottles

-kali ni nak try tommee tippee bottles.

6) bottles utk simpan EBM & liners

-kali ni nak beli bottles bumble bee lak. dah boring pakai bottles MLO.

7) set bersalin

dulu pakai set Nona Roguy. dah la mahalll tapi end up tak pakai semua pun, rugi2 :(
kali ni tatau nak beli set apa pulak. ada cadangan?
cer cite cer cite...
:D

~SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS!

tema bday party athirah aritu spongebob.
takde la tema mana, setakat kek dgn goodies aje pun ;p

dah kata last minute baru decide nak buat kan (less than 1 wk!)
sbb kesian tgk athii - asal nampak kek or lilin je cakap "to youu to youuu.." (happy birthday to youu). lilin halau lalat kat kedai makan pun to youu katanya ko. mau tak sampai hati tak buat bday party ;p

sorry ye tak dapat nak invite ramai. just a small party minum petang with families & kwn rapat yg ada anak sebaya athirah. ala2 playdate mcm tu. kebetulan pulak hujan the whole day (ari yg banjir sana sini tu).

pilih tema spongebob sebab mcm ceria & most budak2 pun kenal spongebob kan.
barbie athii tak pandai layan lagi. tunggu esok umur 4-5 tahun, habis semua nak barbie. kek berskirt bagai. time tu esok layankan puas2 ;p

kad buat syarat ;p

kek spongebob berhidung tinggi ;p

dark choc cake+buttercream+fondant

giant bday card yg tak siap.
mujur atok coverkan dengan belon ;p

wall deco tak brapa deco.
banner happy birthday tu last year punya tak bukak2 wahahha.
tambah wording athirah & poster spongebob je.
belon atas ehsan atok. tatau la kenapa mesti tampal 3bijik 3bijik ;p
err.. jam dinding lupa nak alih plis ;p

menus- nasik beriyani, bihun, puding, popia goreng, cekodok panas.

cream puff, kuih2, buah oren (mentang2 dkt CNY), jellies & sedikit makanan rapu ;p

utk goodies, mula2 nak beli mug spongebob ni.
tapi cari kat toysrus Ikano & Empire, tinggal sebijik aje haih!
sekali a day before party, toysrus alamanda baru bukak, berlambak benda alah ni, tskkk sabo je lah! tapi sbb dah terbeli benda lain, tak jadi beli mug ni.

ganti dgn ni. DIY aje jadi la.
dalam taruk kuih bahulu. konon2 nak buat mini muffins tapi nan ado. tak sempat.

pastu bagi dgn sticker book spongebob skali (xde gambar pulak)

tu je la serba sedikit. uols jgn gelakkan pulak ;p
tau la bday party uols meletops tip top kan hihi
gambar bday girl, & budak2 comel lain entry lain pulak eh :)

nak wordless wednesday jugak la

chinese birth calendar

2011-02-07T21:55:00.000-08:00

terbaca pasal benda ni masa 1st pregnancy dulu.
chinese birth calendar- kononnya boleh predict gender baby. ni kepercayaan org cina la kot. sapa nk try suka2 boleh la, tapi jgn percaya bulat2 ye. kalau betul, mungkin kebetulan. nak jadikan lelaki perempuan semua Dia yang tentukan, wallahualam.

i ade try jugak calculate masa 1st pregnancy dulu, betul! hehe..
err, yg second ni pun macam betul ;p

An ancient Chinese secret: This chart can be used to predict the sex of your unborn child. It has been said to be 99% accurate. The chart was buried in a tomb near Beijing for 700 years and now can be viewed at the Institute of Science in Beijing.

Make the gender prediction by cross referencing the mother's age at conception with month of conception:
*substract one year if the date of conception is before the mother's birthday

or boleh try guna calculator kat link ni

haa sape dah try? betul ke tak predictionnye? ;)

ada satu video nak share, tapi takleh nak bukak Youtube lak kat opis ni.
later k ;)

Fiffy sale

2011-01-24T16:43:00.000-08:00

otw balik from rumah PIL semalam, ternampak mcm ada sale kat kedai Fiffy. ada bukak khemah2 kat luar tu. mcm menarik je, so singgah la kejap. lgpun tak start shopping apape lagi utk baby.

memang murah gila! tapi kena rajin selongkar2 sket aa nak cari pair baju-seluar & saiz.

brand Fiffy ni mmg murah even kalau takde sale pun. tapi kena pandai pilih, sbb ada yg material dia mcm nipis or panas sikit. kalau yg kualiti ok tu, mmg puas hatilah. setakat nak pakai basahan hari2 mmg ok ;)

paling best ni- mitten/booties rm1 each pair!! haruss borong 7 pairs kan ;p
yg plain ade, yg pattern2 ada, yg lubang2 pun ada. semua rm1!

campur2 total dapat 7 pasang baju+ seluar, 7 pairs mitten& booties.
total damage: rm56 aje!! (tak brapa damage la kan ;p)
sukaaa! *sengih sambil tepuk2 poket* :D

*kedai Fiffy yg i pegi ni opposite Aeon Bkt Tinggi, sebelah Twins baby.

recycle lagi

2011-01-23T08:04:00.000-08:00

semalam baru 1st time ikut hubby pegi hantar brg2 recycle kat tempat kitar semula. selalunye dia pegi hantar dkt precint 8, tapi kali ni try hantar kat precint 9 pulak.

buka hari2. tempat pun luas & selesa.

hubby kata kalau compare dgn recycle centre kat p8, p9 ni offer harga lagi tinggi. especially for tetrapak/ kotak minuman tu

hasil bulan ini, terus masuk tabung hasil recycle.
sikit aje, tapi puas hati sbb dah nearly setahun buat keje2 recycle ni.
go green! :)

2011-01-18T20:40:00.000-08:00

my 'baby' girl turns Two today!

Happy Birthday sayang.. mommy sayang kamu sangat2!

rasanya macam baru je lagi lahirkan kamu, susukan kamu..
tau2 kamu dah pandai berlari, petah bercakap, pandai menyanyi, makan sendiri, pakai baju sendiri & mcm2 lagi lah. *ok skang mommy dah sebak sikit sob sob*

since kamu ada, hari-hari mommy tak pernah sunyi. keletah kamu sentiasa menceriakan hari-hari mommy & daddy. bila penat or sedih macam mana pun, bila tengok kamu, peluk kamu, hilang semua rasa tak best tu. terus rasa kuat semula. terima kasih Athirah, sebab kamu mommy dapat merasa nikmat menjadi seorang ibu. lebih menghargai nilai kasih sayang & pengorbanan.

hari ini, dan setiap hari, mommy doakan Athirah Hani membesar menjadi anak yang sihat, ceria, bijak dan solehah, Aminn..

arini mommy & daddy sibuk sangatt, birthday celebration dekat nursery pun terpaksa postponed to next week. kesian athirah. takpe lah, malam ni kite nyanyi happy birthday sama2 ye ;)
