Gegirl's diary

Last week, I was in KL & it was my first traveling experience. I was only about 50days old…obviously Mama & NekMa were a bit nervous. So I tried my best to behave as ‘quai’ as I could. & I did! =) I didn’t go cranky as Mama thought, during the take-off and landing. I slept soundly until we touched down at LCCT. *big clap!*

Papa & Uncle Apiz picked us up at the airport & in Papa’s car,once again I doze off to lala-land. So that was my first day activity. S.l.e.e.p.i.n.g

Day 2 & Day 3
That day was Aunty Amy & Uncle Bob’s convocation day. I didn’t attend, as NekMa said there were so many people and hot and humid. So much better for me to stay at home. Parenthetically, Mama,Papa,Akong & Uncle Apiz went to their convocation.

p/s: it’s Papa & Mama’s first anniversary on that Saturday (which they didn’t celebrate it outside berdua-duaan because I was a bit cranky that night)

On day 3, another convocation…which was Uncle Apiz’s. Again, I just stayed at home with Kak Ju. I cannot stand hot weather outside. Too hot for an infant like me =)

Day 4
That day was the day I went to shopping malls! & I love it! =D Mama & Papa should bring me to the malls more often. However, not now, as the H1N1 thingy is still very menakutkan. Went to Jusco Seri Kembangan, Ikano & Ikea. Most of the time I slept in my stroller. My cool-red-Chicco! I had heaps of fun innit! ;D Ohkay, we had our lunch at Jusco and then off to Ikea & Ikano. Oh ya,I did my ‘daily-business’ at Ikea. Mama & NekMa brought me to the Changing Room @ Ikea and the room was so cool! Much better than the toilets I bet (though I never enter the toilets). At Ikano, Mama managed to buy few new rompers and tees for me. Pakey Raya kata Mama…but I think I’ve wore two of them last few days..hmmm..

Day 5
Another outing day…we went to Macy because Papa wanted to buy a new sofa set. The place was so nice and cosy. And the set that Papa & Mama chose was very fine-looking. Mama picked dark brown fabric rather than lighter color. Perhaps, they worried that I might do some ‘art-work’ on it later. ;p Then, off we went to Subang Parade. Had lunch and jalan2 a bit , afterward we went to KLIA to pick-up Atuk & Nenek from Kuching. And then to Uncle Mas’ house and I met my cousins who live in KL for the first time. Kak Fatin, Abg Aiman, Kak Fifah, Abg A’ish & Abg Adha. ;)

Day 6
It’s Papa’s 28th birthday!!! Another special day! ;) We celebrated Papa’s birthday at home. Mama bought a birthday cake, pizza, satay and some other makanans. I was sleeping during the cake-cutting part. Nevertheless, next year I’ll make sure that I am the one who’ll blow the candles on Mama/Papa’s birthday cake! =D
Day 7
During the day I just stayed at home whilst Mama went to Jalan TAR with NekMa. They went back around 3pm and at 5 something Uncle Apiz send me & Mama to Papa’s office. Met few of Papa’s colleagues and then we went to see Atuk & Nenek at Kota Damansara.

Day 8
Its was Friday. Me & Mama with Akong and Kak Ju stayed at home while Tok Jack, NekMa, Uncle Apiz & Usu Syafiq went to KL for some Herbalife matters. And Papa went to his office ler. NekMa balek around 3pm. Around 5pm, Mama and the others went to Ikea. This time I stayed at home with Nekma & at 7 something Papa came back from work. Mama said they only managed to arrive at Ikea at 8 something. Bad traffic! 2hours to get to Ikea?? Whoooaaaa!

Day 9
Nothing much. Went to Uncle Mas’ place. I was a bit cranky on that day. Very bad-mood especially when we were on our way back to Kajang. I cried all the way. Huhu. And only slept around 3am. Maybe because it was my last night before went back to Kuching the next day. Slept on Papa’s hand while Mama packed the bag. Mama said it’s kinda hard to pack light when traveling with me. Ya,I know. So many things. Clothes, diapers, formula milk, feeding bottles, tonnes of mittens and booties, nappy cream, minyak yu-yi & minyak-apa-jak-lagik, etc. Anyhoo, Mama managed to stash everything (hers & mine) into just ONE bag. =)

Day 10
Balek Kuching…without Papa. Huhu but it’s okay, I’ll see Papa again by the end of this month. Can’t hardly wait to berpuasa with Papa. *though Gegirl sik berpuasa pun ;p*

Overall, I enjoyed my first holiday trip very much, every bit of it!

p/s: Pa, thank u so much for the superb hospitality and great care & attention.

how fast the time flies...

OMG! I just realized that..today is August 4th, which mean that my marriage with Mr Hamfatullah Syawal is nearly satu tahun! Seriously,rasa cam lom lamak jak kawen ;p Last year,time tok I was busy with my wedding preparation. And right this moment,after almost a year…I’m busy playing with my daughter. Our beloved Qayrina.

I am sure everyone has heard the expression, "Time flies fast when you are having fun"... => well, not only I do believe it, I'm living it too! Alhamdulillah.

no title

I did say to myself that I want to start my another-4kg-to-lose program on 1st August. Which mean by taking 2 Herbalife shakes & a normal meal daily. Unfortunately, sik start-start lagikk. Procrastination. yes, procrastination. But in a way, I only take small portion of rice during lunch & dinner (like, quarter of my dinner plate,ok) Confinement period meals also helped me to lose my weight in a way they’re..erm,senang crita sik nyaman. Moreover, to eat those lauk berulang kali..tiap ari..made me muak & the result, I only ate few spoons of rice+lauk each meal.

The thing now is that, I suppose my another-4kg-to-lose program won’t start until….mid August. Hehe..because I’ll be in KL this coming Friday until mid of Aug & salah satu activity wajb is m.a.k.a.n =) Anyhoo,I’ll try my best (yes,bersungguh tok!) to start as soon as possible!

Just to share something I read from an article: The secret to some weight loss without exercise or diet changes is to drink more water! (yup,I consume gallonsssss of water…sebab saya tgh batuk.hehe)

mari baca buku

I really want to go to MPH..sekarang jugakkk! More Sophie Kinsella's pleaseee! Sungguh & sangat addicted,okay. Reading her books rasa cam tgk drama series. =) I read 2 of her books sepanjang confinement period tok tek; Shopaholic & Baby and another one is Can You Keep A Secret.

Capatla hari Selasa...sik saba mok abis confinement...mok g bli bukuuu

kejawak eh

huuu..cute2 oh baju-baju baby nektok

1 month old

Yup, it’s been more than 3weeks since my last entry. Thought that I’ll be posting a lot of entries during my confinement period, but I was so wrong! This is my second entry and my confinement is about to end. 11 days left to be exact. Too lazy to blog? Nope,but I’m too preoccupied with my baby. =) Baby Qayrina a.k.a Gegirl just turned 1month old last 2 days and got her 2^nd dose of Hep B vaccine on that day. I didn’t accompany her to Normah because cun-cun juak Buk Salmi (tukang urut) came that morning. So, NekMa & Tok Jack brought her to see her Paed, Dr Alex. Gegirl is weighing 4.0kg and 56cm height. Sihat alhamdulillah =)

As for mama Gegirl, so far I’ve loss about 10.5kg. yeay! Pregnancy has made me gained 16.9kg (weight before masok OT was 59.9kg!) Of course I don’t aim to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight because I was underweight backed then. Thus, my target is to loss another 4kg before Hari Raya. Caiyok! Caiyok!

Many had asked me how’s the feeling being a mommy? Mestilah bestttt & gumbiraaa. Happy & blessed...I feel complete. =) Though it’s very challenging for a first timer like me..wuwu..banyak nak kenak blajar. How to change her poopy diaper, how to feed her, how to ‘timang-timang’, etc. But, alhamdulillah Gegirl is an easy baby whereby she rarely cry/scream for nothing. Unless she’s hungry or sleepy or if her diaper’s wet or if she wants to be held.

Mama saaayang Gegirl! & saaayang Papanya juak ;)

father's day 2009

That day was the day when the world celebrated Father’s Day. Initial plan was, morning – check-up with Dr Suria and then to Sunny Hill for ice-cream, afternoon – parent-in-law’s hse to celebrate Father’s Day, Evening – TopSpot Seafood with my family.

So, as planned…around 10.30am off to Normah with hubby and headed straight to Mulu Wing. Ilek-ilek ajak coz I thought after being monitored with the CTG machine boleh balit trus. Afterall, none of the three major labor signs has knocked the door yet. Waterbroke, stain of blood , contractions. Maybe there were few contractions but mild ones & there were stain of blood but that was cause by S&S (senang crita it’s a vaginal examination). Dr Suria did S&S procedure once again that morning and told me that my serviks hasn’t dilated yet while the CTG reading was not stable. That was around 11.30am. Once I had my contractions which were mild ones (known as Braxton Hicks), baby’s heartbeat dropped below 120 (normal 140 to 160). Dr Suria wasn’t happy with the reading and worried what will happen once I had the real-seriously-painful-contractions.

There were no other options but to immediately go for ceaserian section. When she told me that I had to go for c-section, tuhan jak tauk mcm ney rasa ati. Segala bagai rasa. Yalah nak,sapa sik takut..c-section is a major operation. Moreover, the operation bukan nya esok or bukan nya malam ya but immediately after being attached to the CTG machine. Beliang skejap. I tried my very best to remain calm and not to act panic because I didn’t want hubby to get panic too. Changed to a green hospital gown & trus ke operation theater. Everything was so fast sampey my mom sik sempat mok datang before 12.30pm. She was attending a wedding reception @ Civic Centre. And koatan begaut tek nak, eye shadow & eyeliner pun sik sempat mok di cuci. Ber'make-up' I di operate. ;p

There were 3 doctors…my gynae;Dr Suria, baby’s paediatrician; Dr Alex and an anaestheologist; Dr Wan. Firstly, Dr Wan did his part; epidural procedure. Few seconds after he injected the epidural, both legs were getting hot and numb. Then, I can’t felt the lower part of my body aih. I can’t even locate where my legs were. Oh ya, hubby was with me all along and he witnessed the whole process. He is my strength. If u’re reading this, thanx for being there sayang. Thanx for everything. And I’m very proud of u! (bukan semua org brani mok tengok operation mcm ya aih)

On the bedah-bedah perut part, I don’t know to describe how I felt…macam nyawa ujong tanduk. Breathless. Sesak menar nyawa time ya & the moment Dr Wan push my chest, I can’t breathe for few seconds. Hubby said that was the moment when the doctors ngeluar baby dr perut. I was very drowsy and sleepy but I tried my best to open my eyes sbb mok tgk baby! 21st June 2009 @ 1.04pm, weight 2.9kg, 48cm height… our baby came into the world. Our healthy & beautiful baby girl. I saw the true happiness in my husband & I’m proud that I’m the chosen one ;) I love u and my love for u is unlimited till the end of my life.

Alhamdulillah that both my pregnancy and delivery process was easy in a way that I didn’t face much problem.

Also thank you to kitakorg semua2; family & friends for the warm wishes and prayers. May Allah blessed your life with happiness too. =)
