Panic Attack

ok...mommy had a panic attack this morning....the story goes like this....

last night when I was lying down in bed putting Nia to sleep....suddenly it struck me that I didn't feel Baby X kicking at all during daytime as well as nightime....zero movement from him....so when husband came into the room...i told him that he was pretty calm and said maybe the baby is sleeping....then i told him...takkan la sleep the whole day....cos i really didn't feel any flutters at all from him that day....i admit that I've been super busy and very stressed this whole week....work is piling like crap and me feel oh so very tired nowadays....but duty calls and someone gotta do the job....but I would always noticed little kicks and flutters from Junior in the tummy....especially when i'm sitting down at the office...so ok la...sambung story....then i started to shake my tummy....like literary shaking it from left to right pakai tangan...kasi gempa bumi skit to the baby inside...ahaha....and yet...still no response....ok...hati tak sedap....worry kicks in....Fahmi and Nia helped me out too..by putting their ears on the tummy and saying hello to the baby...ahaha...zilch response jugak....

so bangun subuh pagi tadi....immediately told Fahmi....i wanna go DSH...to see Dr Susanna...our appointment is not due yet....it's actually scheduled for next Saturday....but I told him....better be panic than sorry....so off we went...lucky for us it's Friday...and Doc didn't have many patients....we were No.2 in the queue when we reached her clinic....9.45am, my name was called and off we went...told Doc Susanna about my worries and she just smiled...calmly bole ckp at me not to worry its pretty common for the baby at this stage not to move so much yet...and even have days whereby i can't feel him at all....we did the scan.....and listened to his heartbeat....*phew*....baru la lega hati ini...ehehhe....he's allright....scan situ....scan sini...everything is perfect....he's size is corresponding nicely with 20weeks punye measurement...he's weighing 338grams as of today....and the Doc was nice enough to print a picture of his balls for us to show to his grandparents nanti...ahahah....tgk kat Babah nye...bukan main lebo tersengih...tgk anak dia nye balls...caitsss.....

so Alhamdulillah...everything is well....mommy je yg freakazoid mcm tah pape...ahah....as I'm writing this right now...baru sudah lunch...and Junior is moving around in the tummy....i guess he's happy he's getting his first taste of KFC Zinger burger for lunch today...ahah...till then....take care mommies!

ohh!! i received some good news from my girlfriends today...will share them soon~

Marking the Half Way Journey

Believe it or not, I've actually reached my half way mark for my second pregnancy. Cepat betol la time di akhir zaman ni. It still feels like it was yesterday when I joke to Fahmi and told him we're expecting no.2 soon. Another 20 weeks (or maybe earlier) and we're going to have Junior out with us (Insya Allah) and Nia will become a Kakak (Hehe).

Anyway, we did our scan last month and Alhamdulillah, our Gyne managed to catch a glimpse of our Junior's gender. So Insya Allah, in June, we will have a boy joining the family. *grin* Pasnih, Babah nye dah ade rival la at home since he's not gonna be the alpha male at home anymore. Dah ade jejaka baru in the house. Huhu. Excited bagai macam. No preparation has been done for the lil kiddo as of yet.Mummy and Babah have been super busy and we might have not been paying much attention to you all this while, lil guy. But Mummy promised, we'll do much better after this.

Starting with your name. Although you are just 5 months young, we have already decided and pick your name from the longgggggg list that Mommy gave to your Babah. I pretty much over-ruled his selection, since he chose Kakak Nia's name last time - so our deal was - if we were to get a boy - I get to chose your name. (He He). So now, Mommy is trying to teach Kakak Nia, on how she can pronounce and call you later. But she's still blabbing like a baby so most of the time we ended up talking and calling you Baby instead. Ok la tu - for the time being. Hehe.
In a few months time, Babah dah promised to take us out to shop for your lil clothes and other stuff. Nothing much to buy this time - since most of the stuff are still new from Kakak Nia's time. But you will definitely get some new clothes and towels and such. Takkan la nak share plak towel sume tu kan. He He.

Ok la - we'll see you again in 1.5 weeks time during our routine date with Dr Susanna. You take care okay lil guy and remember, Mommy, Babah and Kakak Nia are all excited to meet the real you in 20 weeks time. Mwaks!

Happy Chinese New Year

weeeeehu!!! long weekend is finally here....esok i'm flying back to Kuala Terengannu with Nia....Fahmi kena tinggal in KL since he has to work both Thursday and Friday....but we'll be back here by Friday night....hehe...am actually looking forward to go back Terengganu again...although baru je balik....i love the food there.....kalo balik sana, sure la makan macam2 tak hingat....tapi this time around leceh skit la nak kluar cari makanan....cos i'm flying back, so takde kereta nak drive out..arwah Ki punye kereta ade la...but it's a manual car....and I'm sooooooo not confident to drive a manual car....the last time bawak manual time test nak amik lesen dulu kot....ahahaah.....so i'm hoping my mom lagi pro la in terms of bawak kete manual ni...ahahaha.....ade ke patut expect mak plak yg drive me out and about...ekekke...but i guess i won't be going out much, cos balik ni pon for tahlil arwah....harus la nak kena buat kerja at home kan...tak kisah la...yg pasti, nak melantak breakfast nasi lemak ikan...kekee...which i know, Nia pon suke...:p

today, although happy dah nak cuti....tapi agak frustrating at work...cos i've been having issues with one of the testing software that we're using...even after being on the phone for almost 2 hours with the IT Helpdesk, but netmeeting bagai macam....my problem is not yet resolved....balik opis Isnin ni dah ade regression test...dah nak kena gune software tu...hadoii...how la how la....pening duk pk....lantak ler....isnin pagi kena crack my head to fix this....*sigh*....another reason for not looking forward to come back to the office....

and last but not least, happy chinese new year to my chinese friends....safe journey back to your kampung or holiday destinations for those who are travelling....and sila la doakan so that Semek tak buat hal on the plane esok...akaka...neves hokehh!!...ekeek...happy long weekend~

Hari Isnin

Selamat pulang bekerja ye rakan-rakan. It's Monday morning again. Pagi tadi nak bangun tido Tuhan je la yang tahu susahnye. It's sooooo freakingggg cold.....hadoiii....dah la remote aircond tu jauh duk kat dalam cupboard...nak bangun switch off macam sengal je rase....Encik Husband pon 2x5....jadinye, tido la dalam kesejukan kami 3.5 beranak....ceiss...sabo je la...then bile alarm dah bunyik, masuk shower, tengok-tengok takde hot water plak...ni la akibatnye gune that solar water heater at home....our centralized manual heater dah rosak....so kalo takdok matahari, maknanya, air shower tu memang sezukkkk like ice ler....brrrrr....terpaksa la mandi ala-ala kamben....grrrr....

anyways, harini tak banyak kerja sangat.....not as bad as last week....so boleh bernapas and berblog-hopping kejap kat opis...ekeke...multitasking la...what else...kalo tgk documents je all the time, mau juling mata nanti....ekekeek.....this week is gonna be a 3 working days week for me....kamis and friday da cuti CNY.....me and Nia will me making our first trip ber-dua sahaja balik ke Kuala Terengganu Khamis ni....Fahmi has to work on both days.....so it's just gonna be the 2 of us...Tok nak buat tahlil arwah for Ki....so saje la balik...tu pon 1 night je...ingat nak stay 2 malam, tapi MAS nye ticket ya ampun punye mahal la pulak kan....AirAsia and Fireflyz pon sama je....sebab festive season ni la...nak plak last minute baru nak cari ticket...mahu idok mahalnye...so, ended up I have to pay RM400 in total for both of us, return naik MAS...boleh la....family comes first....since airlines lain pon sama je rege, might as well naik MAS je....at least dpt priority since I'm pregnant and Nia pon ade ni....fuhhh....with me luck....neves ni actually nak naik plane berdua...takut Cik Puan ni buat perangai dia la...eheheh.....so far last time pi Langkawi she's been a gem....so hopefully this time around pon sama....

next on the list adalah, furnishing umah Denai Alam...dah lama tak update about Projekt Haus kat sini..... as mentioned previously, kami dah out of budget nak furnish rumah ni....so terpaksa la buat stage-by-stage....since dapo nye cabinets are all done now....our next focus would be the family area kat atas....so that whenever we go there to sleep (ala-ala summer house wiken gitewww) ada la tv untuk hiburan seisi keluarga...especially for Nia la....so, now dah ade TV and home theatre system...smalam dah beli carpet shaggy kat IKEA.....rak TV pon dah assemble....next nak beli 2-seater sofa untuk kat atas ni....and book rack/storage cabinets plus a lot of picture frames (Ni project time pantang lar kot)....lepas abes family area ni....ingat nak cari dining table kat bawah.....or perhaps we can furnish the master bedroom dulu....see how it goes and if we have the $$$....

harap-harapnye dapat la durian runtuh lagi....ahahaha....baru la masyuk nak gi shopping furniture...:p...till then, selamat hari isnin yg sezokkkk!

:-(

it's been awhile tak post entry....the past 2 weeks have been hectic!...balik holiday pon tak ilang penat lagi....then last Thursday, my grandfather passed away....so all of us had to drive back to Kuala Terengganu....sampai pon dah kol 1 pagi...tapi alhamdulillah, sempat tengok and tolong uruskan jenazah....then on Sunday, we were back in KL.....Tuesday tu pulak my husband's aunty passed away....dah another trip but this time to the South to Muar....day trip to attend the funeral....Nia pon kena tinggal cos dah demam penat travel balik Terengganu.....*phew*....

Today plak rasa stress bagai macam....kerja menimbun suddenly ya rabbi....changes here and there....telecons....and late meetings...huwaaaa....ni nak balik pon tak boleh lagi....although its already 6.45pm....have to wait for Mr Hubs yg tetiba ade High Severity ticket plak....adoiyaiii....dah malam ni ade telecon plak at 9pm.....haruslah mak rushing balik ke rumah kena login balik terus...cian Nia....mummy takde time with her tonite....phewww....breathe in...breathe out.....saba saba....weekend is just 1 day away.....tears in eyes right now....sabo je la ye...sekian....

Holiday-holiday Malaysia

Before take off, Little Miss sangat teruja dapat naik luggage trolley at the airport.

Tu lah kan, jakunness cos ini first time dia nak naik plane.

And we've been preparing here for almost 2 weeks that we'll be going on a plane, and that it might be a lil bit noisy.

Takut jugak kang dia start buat drama dalam flight. Lucky she was a gem all thru.

Arrival at the Langkawi International Airport.

Both Babah and doter sempat pose near the aircraft.

So boleh la jadi evidence to Nia when dia dah besar nanti, yg kecik2 lagi dia da naik plane.

LOL

Second day we were there and Little Miss was sooo tired.
I was a lil bit kiasu and drafted a complete itenary for the whole of our 4 days stay.
Sampai to the minute hokehhh the activities.
Mahu tak balik hotel, sume pengsan kepenatan.
Alhamdulillah, we managed to get a good bargain for our ride there.
MYR180 for an auto MyVi for 4 days. Not bad eyh.
We budgetted MYR300 for our ride.
Almost half off.

One of the main activity at the hotel harus la berendam kat pool yg super besar tu with the bikini clad minah sallehs. Ha-Ha.
But, before that, kena la solat dulu kan.

And finally, checking out.

I didn't have any pictures of our room.

Lupa plak nak amik.

Ni pon sume from handphone jer.
Gambar from camera nanti lah ye.

Balik from Langkawi, weekend baru ni, we went up to Genting Highland.

Me and my sister's family with my mom.

Saje nak bawak budak 2 org kat bawah ni main-main with some cool air.

Going on the elephant ride.
Still fresh & perky cos baru sampai.

and riding on the small caterpillar ride with Abang Fawwaz.

And the peak of all, Nia went on the Junior Solero shot ride!
Terer tak terer anak mummy ni.
Langsung tak nangis.
Cool je muka.
Haha.

Last but not least, she went on the indoor ride almost dekat 10x kot.
Sampai brother yg jaga ride tu pon da muke boring tgk Nia.
haha.

Overall, we had fun fun fun! Insya Allah, ada rezeki, kite pergi lagi next time.

Selamat Bercuti!

I am officially on leave from tomorrow onwards for a whole one week. Sepatutnye start minggu depan baru cuti. Tapi esok I claimed for my time off in lieu after having to slave and working night and day for the past 2 weeks. Dapat claim 8 hours equivalent for a whole day off. Bliss! So selamat bercuti and will try to update as often as I can!

Kilos & Pounds

Weight gain....memang tak dapat diseparatekan kalo ngen orang yg pregnant ni....for the past 2 weeks, I've been having a humongous appetite...sume benda makan...nasik siap bertambah-tambah....end up now can see my buncitness aka bump already...pdhal baru masuk 4 months/15 weeks...macam mana tu...dulu pregnant 4 months boleh maintain pakai Levi's 26"....now agaknye yg 30" pon tak tentu muat kot....suddenly dapat panic attack...what if I've piled up berat yg over banyak....oh nooo....dah lama tak gi check gyne ni...so dah lama tak naik weighing scale tu...panic panic...makanya, semalam, i had to kuatkan jugak hati, and naik the weighing scale at home...tgk punye tgk, mcm tak caye je...ehhh!! baru gain 2 kilos ke....phewww...lega......ingatkan da naik 5 kilo ke ape...aahaha....so takde la Doctor nak marah nanti...checked in BabyCenter and apparently by 15 weeks, I should be gaining an average of 2.3kilos....so I am still within the safe range....checked my BMI...baru 22....so masih Normal and not Overweight....fuhh...dabel lega....

Bukan la takut nak gain weight sgt...i know dah kalo pregnant harus la naik berat kan....the reason why i'm very worried is because during my previous pregnancy, i gained as much as 22kilos!!! weight masa baru kawen was just 48kg....masa 40 weeks of pregnancy with Nia, i weighed 70kg!!...giler ke tak...ahahah.....dalam pantang 3 months tu, dapat la turun, tapi tak sampai 48kg balik....i was stuck at 52kg....4 kilos extra....as of yesterday, after dinner, my weight is 54kg.....so, ok la.....5 months to go now...and those 5 months are very challenging for me...what more with my super duper luper appetite ni...makanya, makanla mengikut keperluan and not nafsu...although serious tak tahan...ahah....ok la...selamats!...

p/s: weekend ni ade 2 potluck on saturday.....nak bawak roasted ciken...sempat ke nak attend both parties ni...pengsan!

Countdown!

...................... and we are off to......................

..............feeling deliriously..............
