It's been way too long since i last updated this blogger. I've been really busy. Eversince Nur Adam Bin Mohammad Al-Hafizd was born, my world revolves around him only. Even when im dead tired, just by looking at his cheeky smile, makes my day. At 2 months old, i can called him a smart baby. He can already say.....

"ehbooo" - ibu

"haaaaaayyaaaaah" - ayah

goat

book

"meekkkkkk" - mek

Sounds impossible for a 2mths old baby? But thats a reality. I was shocked too infact others wont believe me until they hear it for themselves. anyways, let's cut short and i shall share with you my labour story. here goes.

17th January 2010

it was my 40th week checkup. i was already experiencing mild contractions for about 10-15mins apart. They warded me in and was hoping for the show to happen. Cervix was checked and im only 1cm dilated. Since im already full term, i requested for induction. Gynae refused to induce me as she wants me to have natural induction.

18th Januay 2010 Another waiting day. Gynae still contemplating to induce me although im very certain about it. Like hello?!?! Im already experiencing contractions like mad and you still wants me to play the waiting game? So they decided to wait for another night and will proceed with the induction the next morning. Great! another day in the hospital = more bills!

19th January 2010 (9am) i was wheeled to the delivery suite for induction. 2hrs later, i can feel the contractions is getting more frequent but it is still bearable. Cervix checked, still 1cm! So i request to go for a walk and have my breakfast.

(5pm) Went to delivery suite again to check on my cervix and im only 1.5cm!! i feel so devastated! i couldnt control anymore and asked for laughing gas. I was high but it didnt help with the pain. I gave up and try to sleep. I was happy cause while sleeping, i dont feel any contractions.

(9pm) Still 1.5cm! i feel like ripping the gynae's body apart and feel like kicking her! In my heart, are you sure im still 1.5? it's been 12hrs!!!!!!! i was already formed up like a prawn!!! Even my husband's constant words doesnt do any justice. i was crying and crying. The best part? Laughing gas doesnt help me at all!!!!! i request for epidural but gynae doesnt consent me yet cause my waterbag hasnt broke. my goodness!

20th January 2011 (12am) Finally my cervix is opening up slowly. I was already 2cm. I was crying like mad already. Didnt stop with my dzikir. Silently, i was hoping that Allah can just stop my sufferings by taking my life away. I was at the verge of giving up.

(3am) I was already 3cm dilated. They broke my waterbag and i asked for epidural.

(5am) Already 5cm but they still havnt provide me with epidural cause they couldnt detect baby's heartbeat. They insert camera through vagina to see how baby is coping.

(6.45) Male gynae came in and said that baby is not doing good cause everytime during contraction, his cord tightens over his neck and he is struggling. So, they have to perform emergency c-sect. Hubby cried cause he couldnt be there with me. I was already in daze after battling with the contractions.

(7am) i was already in the operating theatre. They gave me a gas and i was knocked out.

(7.18am) Nur Adam Bin Mohammad Al-Hafizd was born safely with the weight of 3.4kg and the rest was history.

It was such a long journey but looking at my newborn and seeing him growing up in front of my eyes is such a wonderful journey. I thank Allah for this precious gift. Baby, dont grow up too fast. in a blink of an eye, u're already 2mths old. Slow down darling. Ibu and Ayah loves u alot chubchub!

Around this time last year, me and the hubby was anxiously waiting for our wedding. Now, we are anxiously waiting on the arrival of our little hero. Coming to 33 weeks now, approximately im left with 3 weeks more to anticipate my 9 months pregnancy and 4 weeks for my baby to be in full term. By end of this month and year, i'll be sitting at home and wait for any "show" that is going to happen.

Yesternight, me and the hubby had a very long conversation about our milestone. Im proud to say that at this young age, we have achieved a lot of things and pretty much settled down. We are more or less secured a proper base for our future. Alhamdulillah, we have secured a proper abode (that will be fully furnished insyaallah by 2014 or maybe earlier), job and a perfect family i can call on my own.

Many of our friends does not understand when we said we are financially tight. Many remarks have been given as if we are not prepared when we wanted to get married at an early age. Truth to be told, you guys just dont understand. It's not a mistake to get married early, it's not a mistake for me to get pregnant right after we are married and it's not even a mistake when we purchased a flat.

Before we are married, we have already mentally prepared of all the things that are going to cost us. By saying we are financially tight, doesnt mean that we have no savings or money. We still get to dine at a posh restaurant and splurge once in a while. By financially tight, what we meant was we do not want to spend our money unnecessarily as the money that we have is going to be spend to something that is gonna secure us a better future.

How many of you can save let's say $500 per month consistently? Some people cant even set aside $10 per month ok. Trust me it's hard but when you've got hold of it, im sure you can manage it. Nothing is impossible. Me and hubby are not like some typical M&Ms who got married early but does not plan for the future. We aretotally opposite from them.

Who says i dont have the urge to spend? Hey, im still young and i also wants my wardrobe to be filled with updated clothes. But who cares now? I dont even care whether my clothes are outdated or something. What i want now is to save as much as i can for our future house, medical bills, child and insyaallah a yearly trip with my family. Isn't that just great? Both the hubby and me targeted about 5-6 years before we can finally enjoy fully without having to think so much.

We'd rather scrimp and save now than having to suffer in the future. At least by the time the flat is fully furnished, i'll be 26-27 years old. While others starts to crack their head to save for weddings and house, i'll be enjoying my life with the hubby and child insyaallah. By that time, can i smirk at all of you who is currently always giving negative comments and remarks to us young couples? cause while we have secured so much things at a young age, you guys just started to build sandcastle.

Ok, i sounded so snobbish but it's kind of irritating and it hurts when you guys just dont understand our sacrifices. Not all young couples couldnt make it through the end. We have vision too and we want everything to be as perfect as we can be.

Anyway, this is my latest self n i hope i could sail thru the rest of e weeks smoothly. :)

Yes people! We're expecting a baby boy! *throws confetti* Actually i have already this guts feeling that it will be a boy since day 1 but i tried to keep it to myself as i don't mind whether it is a boy or a girl. As long as baby is healthy and well formed, i am very much thankful. Like hello, we're not in the olden days whereby gender matters so much. Even a girl can be independent on her ownself.

Ok, let's move on to the scanning part. I was getting a lil bit impatient cause the gynae was taking a long time to scan the gender. She kept on fiddling to check the head circumference, kidney, heart chamber and etc. Ok, my bad cause i'd really want to know the gender badly. It's not her fault as she needs to do a thorough check-up on baby's position and stuffs. I should have slap myself just now. =x

She then move on to baby's thigh and let us know the length and stuffs when i asked the gynae by pointing to the screen, "is that a boy?" The gynae was stunned and asked, "yeah! how do you know?" Well i told her it seems like a penis to me and balls are bulging out. Hahahahaha. She laughed and jokingly said, "you can really read the ultrasound." Oh wells.

The husband and i was so delighted that i kept on visualising his penis. Yeah, pervert mummy i am but i cant help it that im the first to notice his balls and penis, ok. Gynae tried to focus on his face and it was captured that he was kissing the placenta. This cheeky boy ah! Even the gynae said, "Look! He's kissing the placenta!" Lol. There's even 1 moment when gynae tried to focus on his face and baby turned to us and give a KISS!! Hilarious!! So cheeky! Must be inherited by the father. -_-"

Baby was spotted kissing his placenta. Cheeky cheeky boy!

After which, we headed to Marina and i bought baby mittens. I can't help it lah! Too happy with the news especially when we got to know that baby is all fine after the scan. For now, we can start calling him by his name. Love it when he responses to whatever we trying to talk to him. So clever. That's mummy's boy!

Being a housewife isn't a bad thing actually (only when it comes to the income part). Surprisingly, i didnt miss anything about my work. Im doing well currently and so is baby. Im in my 15 weeks coming to 16 weeks now. how fast can it be. this fri will marks my 4th month being pregnant with the lil one.

Currently, i can feel like small butterflies in my tummy. Doc said, it's my lil peanut. I will feel the kick in about 2 months time. how exciting. The ayah has been religiously talking to the lil one and he claimed there's a response everytime when he talks about FOOD (so typical lah this baby. mcm bapaknya). The ayah said that he will hear a small thud sound everytime s/he responses to his talkings.

If that's true, i wanna hear too!! so exciting can? My lil bump has yet to be seen and i dont look pregnant at all! Hubby's colleague who is 1 month pregnant ahead of me, has a big tummy already. To convince myself, i told the hubby that baby is slim and wants to maintain his/her figure. Hubby called me nonsense. Hello! I cant possibly grow my tummy overnight what! as long as baby is healthy, i cant be bothered whether my bump can be seen or not. If the hubby is still worried, i will just buy a basketball and put under my shirt. -_-"

Recently, my tummy hurts alot and got to know that baby is too low than where it should be. so had a lil massage from the massueue and now baby is in the right position. Please don't scare me baby. Currently im losing weight instead of gaining those pounds. Kind of worried but happy at the same time. Worried that baby dont get enough nutritions (which ain't true lah) and happy cause i don't have to worry much about losing weight during post pregnancy (which is lame thoughts cause i can just gain weight at any time of the pregnancy what)

i just cant wait to reach my 20 weeks cause then, we'll get to know about the gender before we starts shopping for the lil one. Hopefully baby will co-operate with us. so baby. enjoy your moments inside here k cause Ibu is enjoying every moments having you inside me.

Yesterday was my 3rd month check-up. I was very nervous and didnt know what to expect although this is not my first time having ultrasound. I was wondering how does my baby looks like and will it still look very small from the last time i had my ultrasound. I was praying that baby is growing well despite my constant vomitting.

Hubs accompanied me to the room and the gynae put some gel onto my tummy before she began with the ultrasound. Both me and hubs were so excited and all prasies to Allah when we saw lil peanut kept on jumping inside my womb. Lil peanut kept on sucking the thumb on and off and baby did wave both hands to us. So cute and adorable. Amazing. I didn''t know baby has grown quite big despite me throwing out whatever i've consumed.

Gynae tried to focus to lil peanut's face but failed. Gynae even said that baby is too shy. Hahahaha. How cute. From what i know, baby had the Ayah's nose and Ibu's long legs. I kept on visualizing how baby kept on jumping. It touches my heart. I love you baby.

I going into the 2nd trimester and i can see a lot of differences. Lesser vomitting and high appetite. I was shocked that i lost 1 kg in 1st trimester. Still, i think baby is still alright from the ultrasound. Im going for my next check-up in September. So here is Eikafizd's Junior Sneak preview to all.

Tomorrow marks my 12th Week in pregnancy and im sailing through myself to the 2nd trimester, Alhamdulillah. Morning sickness has subsided a bit although it still occurs at odd times. Still, it's not that bad to be compared to the 1st trimester. Im sure NOT going to miss the morning sickness. Cravings for foods have started to sink in. Now im craving for chilli crabs. Husband, please take note of your wifey cravings. Thank You.

Tomorrow will be our monthly check-up and im excited to see how baby is developing. I just hope he is still not that small due to my constant vomitting. And............................... i might just be a SAHM soon. We'll see how. Update again tomorrow.

Laters.....
