Grumpy.. grumpy..

Credit : Google

Hmm... ok.. he is being a little grumpy today!

Tak suka, x suka, x suka!

I pun x sure the exact reason la. Butttt...... what i can think of is because I came back home late.  Well, xde la lambat tapi I was not home yet when he was back from work.  Sayang i ni jenis kalau dia balik rumah, nak isteri kesayangan dia ni sambut.  Masa time keja dulu pun, dia balik keja, I dah balik (sebab balik ngan dia, lol!), so time jadi homemaker ni lagi la dia expect I ada kat umah time dia balik.  Yelah, everyday ada nescafe and roti bakar tersedia bila dia balik... arini xde.. tu yang sikit hangin kot!

Ye ye, I paham.. tapi alaaa sayang... i bukan gi mana pun, gi umah mama je. And petang tadi cam pening sikit tu yg baring dulu kat sana. Huhuhuhu...

Tak mo la marah... cak! cak!

Hmm, he is still in his silent mode.  Boring tul la.. mula2 i still tanya dia few things.  Kalau dah cakap 10 patah, jawabnya sepatah... hmmm xpe la.. malas nak cakap lagi... baik dok diam2 depan lappy ni....  nanti bila dia nak cakap pandai la dia cakap.. kan? kan?

Alaaaaaaa.... easy said than done! I cannot... i cannot.... uwaaaaaa.... nak cakap gak ngan dia... hik hik... dah la tgk keadaan camni.. banyak je benda nak citer... benci.. benci... huhuhuhu...

Tak pasal2 i yg emo ok! Nak2 nyer hormon emo tu mmg terlebih skrg kan... :(

p/s:  Dulu pnh nak pujuk dia, ajak fluffy dok depan dia and nyanyi lagu "maafkan kami... maafkan kami..." cam dalam citer Seniman Bujang Lapok tu.  Berjaya la gak... tapi arini cam xde mood la nak pujuk dia... i pun sedeh... nak tido la... :(

PPUM : 1st visit

Subahanallah.. what a beauty!
Right after my appointment at KJMC, I straight away called the gynae at PPUM and made an appointment.  Alhamdulillah Dr Sofi said I could come on that Friday itself.

It was not that bad that Friday, patients were not so many as any other days.  And my turn to see Dr Sofi was actually quite fast.  I was in there for about an hour juga la. lama kan. Totally satisfied!  We went through all the details about my experiences.  U know, about the ttc journey, bout previous miscarriage and eventually the current pregnancy.  Dr Sofi is very detailed.  She jotted down all the dates and events in a chronological order. Told her every single thing that she needed to know.. and of cos my worries too!

After that, we went for a scanning.  Told her that I would prefer to do the transvaginal scanning (tvs) instead of abdominal scanning.  She said ok, but nevertheless, we would try the abdominal scanning 1st.  Ok doc!

As expected, abdominal scanning mmg x nampak la. Probably my bladder was not that full or that the fats at my belly is so thick that the scan could not get through.. hahahhha.  So eventually we did the tvs. Dalam hati selawat and berzikir and berdoa semoga semuanya selamat.

Then suddenly Dr Sofi was like:

"Haa.. tu baby.. dah ada heartbeat pun. Mummy risau sgt ni.."

and i terus tgk screen and tanya doc "Mana heartbeat doc"

"Tu yang flick laju2 tu, npk x?"

"Ha'ah nampak.. alhamdulillah..... syukur..." sambil berlinang airmata.

Ya Allah, syukur alhamdulillah. Ya Allah, Kau pelihara lah kandungan ku, baby ku semoga sihat dan selamat. Amin.

Dr Sofi kata  sekarang 7 weeks plus.  Alhamdulillah.  Went back to her room after the scan since scanning room is in another room.  We discussed on my diet and meals. Do's and don'ts.

Seriously bersyukur sgt sebab dpt jumpa Doc Sofi.  Memang best! I was in her room for about 1 hour.  Previously kalau jumpa gynae mmg kejap2 je. nak cakap or tanya pun laju2 sbb diorg mcm rush nak jumpa patients lain kan. But with Dr Sofi I can actually tell her everything. And she listened very patiently.  Suka suka suka!  Dr Sofi ni boleh dikira sbg my cousin juga la kot.  Her uncle marries my aunt. So kitorg ni ala2 cuzzy muzzy gitu la.  It is so different when she puts her doctor's hat.  Kalau x before this jumpa kat rumah my aunty je so we weren't really talking about pregnancy stuffs.. oh well, i think last jumpa pun i was not married yet so mmg la x cakap pasal pregnancy kan! Lol.. But dia mmg best la, just hope dapat follow up with her through out my pregnancy ni. Amin...

Anyway, as expected, my sugar level is high.... again! So i have to do blood sugar profile (bsp) for 3 days this coming week (thank goodness I have my own glucometer now!) and she will need to review my results next week. Ok doc, i'll do what ever u said, anything for the sake of my little angel here :)

2nd gynae's visit

Hello dearies,

As promised, here's an update after my gynae's visit.  Had an early appointment sebab nak kena amek fasting blood sugar before seeing the gynae.  So at 8.30am, hubby and I were already at the gynae's clinic.  Registered myself and was taken to the lab for them to 'poke' my forearm. Kejap je amek darah tu, pastu nurse suruh gi makan dulu sebab diorg nak process darah tu. Dalam 20 minit camtu la. Then baru boleh jumpa doctor bila dah ada resultnya.

So after habis breakfast roti canai telor kat mamak kat tepi KJMC, we all naik la balik kat gynae's clinic.  Walaupun my number should be the 1st one to go, tapi sebab result belum dapat kot so terpaksa bagi laluan kat patients lain dulu.  Hmm.. xpe la... After about 15 minutes tgk dinding  tv (which i actually just stared at the tv), my number was called.

Then masuk la bilik Doc Fatima.  She called the lab for my blood test result and jeng jeng jeng.... 6.9 mmol!! Ok, tinggi ye for a fasting blood test! She said she wants to refer me to a physician to monitor my sugar level.  And since I want to continue my check up with PPUM, i asked if she could refer me there.  She noted.

After that, it was time to scan my tummy.  Alhamdulillah, ada kandungan dalam rahim.  We saw the sac.  Tapi tak nampak heartbeat lagi.  Probably awal lagi. Doc ckp insyaAllah, lagi seminggu boleh npk.  Aminn...
Pastu doc bg gambar scan yg nampak sac tu. Tapi dlm sac tu cam nampak bayang2 baby je. Oh.. perasaan seorang mummy... :)

7 weeks.

Credit : http://www.babycenter.com.my

Alhamdulillah, syukur ke hadrat Ilahi.  I am entering my 7th week this week (5 week fetal age)

The above is the image of my little precious at 7th week.  InshaAllah, kalau ikutkan dah nak ada heartbeat this week or next week.  My next appointment is this Wednesday untuk scan.  Semoga my little precious sihat and sempurna.

At 7 weeks, beside still having on off tummy cramps.  I think my nausea is getting worst.  I feel nauseated at all times especially from evening to night.  But today, tengahari ni pun dah rasa sangat loya.  Takpe la, mummy x kisah, at least there is a prove something miracle is happening inside me :)

My appetite is also decreasing.  Tengok semua, semua x lalu.  but i have to eat. kesian baby nanti x dpt nutrition secukupnya. so paksa la makan juga, foods that i can eat.  and refrain myself from vomitting it back.  I still have problem untuk gosok gigi every morning.  Pantang masuk kan toothbrush dlm mulut sure la ter uweekkk uweekkk... camna jer... adeh... mmg kena sepantas kilat gosok gigi.. huhuhu...

okie folks.. x leh ngadap lappy lama2... nak termuntah pulak tgk screen ni. will be back to update on my 2nd visit to see the gynae. doa2 kan semoga dapat tgk heartbeat baby ye semua.  amin...

1st gynae's appoinment.

It  has been a week since I've discovered that I am pregnant.  Given the history I had before I decided to see a gynae as soon as possible.  I haven't really decide which gynae I want to go to or to see for this pregnancy.  But one thing for sure, this time around, tak mo pergi klinik kesihatan awal2.  I will register with them but not that soon. maybe bila dah enter 2nd trim insyaAllah.

So untuk 1st appoinment ni, after some thoughts and considerations, I chose Dr Fatima Najla from KJMC.  One of the reason, dekat dengan rumah.  Less than 5 minutes drive.  5 minutes cari parking and 5 minutes walk from my car to the Gynae's clinic. chewah!

Made an appointment the yesterday and today dah boleh terus datang.  My appoinment was after 10.30am sebab pagi doctor ada case.  Ok, xpe at least they notify me early. so xde la dtg tercongok2 kat situ kan.  So by the time I arrived, ada la jugak beberapa couples waiting for their turn.  The staff nurses are very friendly.  I registered myself and after a while, got my number.  3005.  Oh, 3 more people before my turn.  Not so bad :)

Finally my turn.. first time tgk Dr Fatima ni live. Kalau x before this asyik tgk kat internet je. hihi. She looks friendlier in person.  Memang friendly pun.  I can't say that I like her instantly.  Not yet, too soon to tell.  Hehehe..

So I told her my history.. the ttc journey, the 1st mc @ 4 weeks, the recent 2nd mc @ 9 weeks, the result of low progesterone, the gestational diabetes in my 2nd pregnancy etc.  Dia dengar and take note of it.  She calculated my LMP and said that I am in my 5th week and my expected due date will  be on 22 July 2013.. in sha Allah.

Dr Fatima said that usually 5 weeks is still early to do an ultrasound scan.  Sometimes, boleh npk sac, sometimes x nampak lagi.  But knowing my body, sure x npk lagi sbb before this scan at 7 weeks pun x npk.  Could be perut i tebal sgt kot. hehehehe.. Anyway, doc said, she'll try and scan anyway and as expected, mmg x npk pun lagi.  So she said to come again in 2 weeks time to scan again.  Kalau still x npk baru buat tvs.  Asked her why x boleh buat tvs skrg, but she said it is too early to insert the stick inside at this point.  Tunggu dah besar sikit baru boleh katanya. Hence the 2weeks time..

I think i was in her room about 15 minutes kot.. x lama pun.  Ha... but the charges.. walaweh!

Gynae's consultation fee : RM80
Specialist fee                 : RM80
Medicine                       : RM109

Total : RM269!!!

Ok, for medicine tu lagi melampau... just sekotak duphaston and 14 days acid folic.  serious mahal!

Am not sure if  that is the standard charges for a first timer.  Nak kena survey ni.  mmg la service best... tp alahai... mahal nya.. now x sure nak continue kat sana lagi ke x.  Though I have made a 2nd appointment nanti.  Oh... dilemma....

Anyway, we will wait and see how it goes later... kalau bagus service doc ni, perhaps we just stay despite the expensive charges.  After all, for the sake of me and my little one juga kan :)

So, this is my baby's development at 5 weeks:-

Credit : http://www.yourpregnancy-weekbyweek.com/5-week-pregnancy.html

So at 5 weeks ni, as an expectant mother, apa yg I rasa are as follows:-
  • Nausea at times, tapi x muntah. just loya je.
  • Muntah everytime gosok gigi. Kadang2 rs cam malas nak gosok gigi je.. hihihi
  • Relieve every time pergi swimming.  Mmg rasa sgt calm.
  • Malam tido awal.. kul 10pm dah ngantuk tahap gaban.  Good thing is, I get to wake up early.  But through out the day mmg cepat penat la. So again, banyak tido gak siang. hihi
  • On and off cramping.  Macam nak period.  Read somewhere, it is because our uterus is expanding sbb tu cramp.
  • Sakit pinggang, but not as bad as the last pregnancy
  • Cepat lapar... i guessed since now am eating for 2 kan :)
Despite all the symptoms, I sangat2 x kisah.  I embrace each moments of it. I am so looking forward to this great journey, semoga semuanya selamat dan dipermudahkan. in shaa Allah..

New Year's Gift!

Salam Maal Hijrah 1434H semua.

Syukur ke hadrat Ilahi masa diberi nafas dan dipanjangkan umur untuk menyambut tahun baru.  Maaf kawan2, I terpaksa private kan dulu post ni sebab i think it is too early to share the great news.

Taken on 1st Muharram.


Actually I have not missed my period yet the day I took this HPT. I was not sure why I wanted to do the test anyway. Could be because my bbt temperature was still high hence the test. It was a cold call for the test as I obviously did not expect anything since as u all may know I just had my miscarriage 2 months before.

So when the 2nd line appeared, I woke hubby up quickly and first thing that I asked was "B, i pregnant ke?" Hubby opened his eyes and without looking at the stick answered "Hormon u x betul kot yang". And I just answered "Ntah.. xpe la tunggu je".

We didn't talk about it at all the whole day. Tapi... hati perempuan mana yg tak tertanya2 kan. Even  though I have the feeling that I am pregnant, but wanted to be more surer.. and so.... the next morning, I took another test....





And another one the next day.......



Skip 18 November sebab kehabisan stick, and on 19th morning, another test.....



Ok, could not be more surer tapi x nak overjoy sgt.  Hanya mampu mengucapkan Alhamdulillah... alhamdulillah.. alhamdulillah...  syukur sangat2.  Terima Kasih Allah.

Halia O Halia

A very short entry today.

Been looking for pati halia.  Ada ke such thing?  Hubby lately asyik nak minum teh O halia sebab nak buang angin.  I pun tersuka juga teh O halia ni.  Sebab mmg terkentut2 and sendawa je selalu lepas minum.  So I ni dok la menumbuk or blend halia.  Sampai bawak ke hotel la halia yg ditumbuk tu buat stok. Nak cari short cut way by using ready made pati.  Tapi x jumpa.  But hubby found this instead..



It's a ginger powder.  I think this is used in cooking to spice up food.  But it is worth a try to see if we can substitute this with our original ginger.  I've actually tried it and it definitely gives  the same taste and aroma.  Cuma for some reason it is quite difficult to dissolve even in hot boiling water.  Hmm.. x kisah la.. it nevertheless save time and x payah la nak menumbuk2 halia tu. :))
