:: Post Natal Checkup ::

:: Ready, Aim, Shoot ::

The number of victims who became his targets are numerous.. Aunty Ain, Nenek, Ayah and Ibu.. Some of us multiple ocassions.. even he was a victim.. Who I am talking about..

Who else, but my hero..

Every diaper changing session is scary since we won't know if it is our turn again... Yesterday, I was changing his diaper when suddenly.. Chooot.. Macam fountain... Land on the bed and even his face.. I should have snapped a picture but I was so in a hurry to wipe his face.. Takot he end up licking his urine or it goes into his nose or eyes.. Irah was laughing away.. It was humourous... He look so sardine lah after that.. Like orang tak bersalah..

Now I shall be more careful so that I won't become an easy target.. Chet..

Oh my presentation for my thesis is over.. Alhamdullilah.. Whether I do well or not is immaterial coz the most important thing is the burden is lifted of my shoulder.. I am left only with the report to complete. There was quite a number of questions and I was able to answer all. Thankfully there was no SPSS questions kalau tak abis aku..

And my mom namecards are now in our possession.. Nak tgk.. Taknak tgk pon kiter nak tunjuk.. kekekkee

Nice tak.. We did it at Marina Designs located at Angsana.. The price is affordable and the work done is very professional.. I like the design that they did so much.. I would definitely go and make more from them when we finish this batch. But that would take a long time lah since I made 1200 cards this time round..

So meh we make some advertisement skit..

Kepada sesiapa yang berminat untuk membuat tempahan.. Jangan malu dan jangan segan, hubungilah Cik Nani ye.. Harga nyer berpatutan and Insyallah berbaloi.. Kalau nak recce recce pon bleh... Tak semestinya kalau call kene tempah..

Oh translation please..

To those who are interested,please feel free to contact Madam Nani. The price is reasonable and we will try our best to satisfy your needs.. Enquiries are welcome and there is no obligations..

Kekekeke..

Okie,I shall continue uploading my pictures.. Ayie dah nak siap gie solat Jumaat and my hero should be back from his polyclinic checkup soon.. I hope his jaundice is cleared by now.. So next up will be his second dose of Hep B jab..

Wassalam...

:: Dad and Son Moment ::

Mestilah Ayah cakap boleh...



Close up of 'Aqiil and Ayah.....

The two heros in my life...

:: Phobia ::

Last time, whenever I have the urge to pass motion, I was jubilant.. But now... It freaks me out.. Passing motion leaves me sore... And the amount of vege that I eat means more toilet encounters..

Wait a minute.. This is not about me and my toilet business, I am supposed to talk about 'Aqiil..

So yesterday was my first post natal checkup.. The doc say that I am healing well but not fully healed yet.. It takes four weeks for me to recover fully.. Oh so long.. 'Aqiil got his bird bird checked and he is also almost healed..Alhamdullilah..

Yesterday checkup was quite long since we chit chat with the doc, take pictures lagi...

With the gynae, Dr Jazlan..

And with the notti and cheeky but friendly nurse, Jane... Sempat to even exchange ringtones lah ngan si Jane nie..

After the checkup, we go badok at Selera Chicken Rice at Selegie Road.. It is a challenge to baby bjorn my hero and eat my chicken rice.. Sorry darling, the rice dropped on your head a couple of times and one chicken bone also made it to your forehead.. Mummy is not a pro yet...

After filling the grumbling tummies, ours that is.. We head to school.. I need to use the computer lab urgently and Ayie said that he will wait for me at the Megabytes..If you are not from SIM, Megabytes uses Marche kinda system.. Chop your card and pay later.. I being the smart alex told ayie that he should just go and eat and i will withdraw money after I am done and then go and pay for him.. And he agreed.. I was using the computer lab when Ayie called with 'Aqiil in the background.. He was hysterical.. TIme check: 1pm. It is milk time.. Ayie insist I come down now and Ayie was trying hard to pacify our lil hero.. His brownies and ice cream was almost untouched and the hot cocoa stil half full.. I help him pay and he said he will wait in the car..

I went back to the lab, print the data and rush back.. Ever since I embrace motherhood, it worries me when my son is crying and i am elsewhere.. So when I reach the car,Ayie shag face greet me..

He said when 'Aqiil cried, the air conditioned cafetaria become hot and he was sweating.

The notti baby..

A smiling and relieved dad..

Tulah,kalau ayah bagi susu cepat cepat.. 'Aqiil takdelah nangis..

The chubby ibu...

So once 'Aqiil is satisfied, daddy relieved and mom done with school stuff, we left for Causeway Point.. It's shopping.. When you are stuck at home, don't say CWP,even the thought of jalan jalan downstairs made me happy.. lol..

We bought bottles for 'Aqiil and head home, Ayie needs to go back to station, me also need to do so and 'Aqiil needs to sleep..

We send the tired after a whole day of activity 'Aqiil home...

One moment he is tired..

Next he is happy.. Bila nak jalan lagi eh..

The equally tired mom and dad....

I'm loading the pics now but i have to do it batch my batch... Please go to my multiply to view okie..

Gtg, i am typing one hand and feeding baby on the other and talking to ayie at the same time.. multitasking ya...

:: Finally the story ::

Assalamualaikum to all..

first and foremost, I must thank everyone who had in one way or another helped me through this period. I seriously appreciate it alot.. I have never thought that I would succumb to all the stress that I might have to face.. Despite trying to be strong, I just crumble.. Alhamdullilah, I am slowly picking myself up...

So now the labour story that I am supposed to share.. remember I said that I am supposed to check in at midnight on the 10 October.. It was postponed lah... The staff called to ask me to come at 6am instead... So Ayie and I went home... Kental betol.. dah semangat nie kan skali kene U turn..

So that night, Ayie and I slept together again as a twosome.. lol..

That morning, at about 4.30am, we woke up.. I cooked maggi for Ayie and I since we do not want to go with our stomach empty.. And we also couldn't be bothered to go to MacD as we besarkan tido... lol...

So maggi lah kita makan.. We slept kinda late that night since we couldn't contain our excitement.. After solat Suboh, Ayie and I took a cab and make our way to Raffles..

Though sleep no enough, we were still very hyped.. After a dose of fleet enema.. I was off to the toilet in like less than a minute... Powerful lah that thing.. Ayie did the registration and then we relax and chit chat and take picture.. Maklomlah first timer..

At about 8.30, Dr Jazlan came in, put the drip on me and then burst my waterbag.. I was 3cm dilated and already having contractions and yes, I still didn't feel a thing.. All was good till 11am.. The pain came and go... The nurse came in and asked me if I want that gas... I was shocked.. Pandai nurse nie.. Macam tau jer time aku sakit eh...

So the gas was inhaled and goodness.. steam kodok.. Now i know why addicts love that feeling where you just float... The pain just disappeared... By 12pm, the pain got worse.. I told Ayie not to leave my side cause I was in so much pain.. I was in tears...

And the best part was, Ayie did not leave the room but he fell asleep... I was so in pain, I called for him and yet he continue sleeping lah... I almost wanted to reach for a box of tissue so that I can throw at him and wake him up.. but the tissue box was beyond reach... Dr Jazlan came in at 12.30pm and he said I am now 5cm dilated... He left for friday prayers and I am all alone in pain... Oh ayie did not wake up tilll 2pm... Thanks dear... Nie part I sure cannot forget.. I will tell 'Aqiil...

2pm the nurse came in.. I was slipping in and out of consciousness and my blood pressure was dropping even lower.. 80+ over 60+ by then.. I don't even have the energy to inhale that magical gas... At that point of time, I really felt like dying.. I can hear the chaos around me yet I can't even see them... I think about the times that I didnt listen to my mom.. Padan muka aku.. Dah sakit macam nie baru menyesal kan tak dgr cakap mak dulu... I asked Ayie to get me the epidural...

The midwife checked and told me I am already 8cm dilated and the time was 2.45pm.. They asked me again if I wanted the epidural and I said yes... I didn't want to faint and then end up being cut open.. I wanted to deliver my baby naturally...

They had to curled me up as I was motionless and administer the epidural.. Ayie told me that he was so worried at that point of time as he can no longer see my pupils.. My eyes are all white... The nurse keep asking me not to push.. How not to push.. I feel like pushing.. Not easy trying to endure the pain and avoid pushing simultaneously.. After the jab.. Less than 5 mins, I was smiling.. The wonders of epidural... I can feel the pressure from the contractions but there was no pain.. I sms my friends that I took epidural and they laugh at me.. Kong asam..

The nurse asked me to rest and since I will need all the energy to push.. 5+, Dr Jazlan came in, he said I am ready... So I push and push with Ayie and the midwife as my motivator until, a nurse came in to say that the patient next door need the Dr urgently... My baby's crown can already be seen.. I told the Dr to attend the patient first since I have painkiller and waiting is pretty harmless..

He came back, and a few more push and Alhamdullilah, my precious Muhammad 'Aqiil Roziiq Bin Muhammad Azhari was born.. I am always the act tough person but when I saw 'Aqiil, I was moved.. Dr Jazlan had to ask me if I am okie.. Ayie azan kan the baby and he was also very moved.. I have never seen my hubby that way... This side of him...

Ayie took real good care of me for the 2 nights we spent at the hospital.. He helped me bathe, wake up in the middle of the night just to help me turn... I have terrible backache and at times, even moving was impossible... He really attend to all my needs without whining.. My mom said that I am very very lucky to have Ayie as my husband and lucky I am indeed..

'Aqiil is now on formula, I couldn't breastfeed him cause it was too stressful for me.. I broke down whenever he couldn't latch on me.. My nipple was flat when my breast swelled during the pregnancy. To those who have yet to give birth, it is a good idea to pull your nipple before you give birth so that it is easier for your baby to latch. There's this nipple puller sold in stores to help you with the task..

'Aqiil was still having problems that I bought nipple shield for him but at times the milk just refuse to cooperate.. And when I tried expressing my milk, I was shattered to see an empty bottle. I called Ayie everyday when he is at work in tears...

It also didn't help that there are just so many visitors and when I am trying to breastfeed 'Aqiil, people knocked on the door to see him.. I seriously feel I do not have the privacy at all..

Finally after confiding with a friend and discussing with Ayie, we decide that I shall only breastfeed him as and when I feel okie.. And yes, now I feel so much better. I am going to start on my project very soon... My thesis is due in less than a month..

'Aqiil was circumcised yesterday and he is on the road to recovery.. My baby is super tembam now.. Even Dr Jazlan noticed when he was about to circumcise him yesterday...Though some people still pressure me about not breastfeeding, I shall try my best to ignore and concentrate on being a good mom....

:: Our big Bundle ::

Alhamdullilah, we are now parents...

I have 10 mins to get this done.... The faster the better....

Assalamualaikum, My name is Muhammad 'Aqiil Roziiq Bin Muhammad Azhari.. What it means... 'Aqiil is intelligent while Roziiq means sustenance. My mom Rose with the wonderful help of my father, Ayie delivered me on the 10 October 2008 at 1823hrs... I weigh a hefty 3.64kg. I am 51cm tall... Dr Jazlan asked my mom what she ate till I grow so big... My mom said she stuff herself with so much food... But I can't beat my Aunty Mok Mok.. She was 4.71kg when she is out...

To everybody who came to visit me and gave me lots of goodies, thank you so much... There's some who didn't come but they send over the goodies, I also wanna thank you all... If you come but no goodies I also don't mind because I love the star attention that I get... I feel so like a celebrity..

Mom can't write more because I left her and my dad sleepless last night so she shall share her story with you some other day...

So to all, we the Azhari family would like to say goodbye....

:: The end is near ::

We went for the checkup yesterday... Dr Jazlan asked me if I feel any pain, I said no have.. Only some cramping every now and then.. He check baby heartbeat, alright, position also alright and then water level also alright.. Alhamdullilah.. Then he said, we shall do a VE okie see if you have dilated.. And then he dgn excitedly exclaimed, eh dah bukak tau, 3cm.. if you wanna give birth today also can... Today??? Uh dowan can?? So we decide to go to his office and discuss..

So upon discussion, it shall be this Friday.. Ayie needs to concentrate on his exams and since the Dr say it should be okie to hold and see if it dilate further, we shall do just that.. So this Friday at 12am, I shall check in to the hospital..

I was suggesting to Ayie... Yang kiter naik train ah yang.. Second last train ker.. Pelan pelan gie sana.. he say I giler... Woit, bleh gitu...

Anyway, Ayie was super excited and happy... He was gleaming.. Seriously.. I can see the glow in his face when he announce to his friends and all.. It was so nice to see him that happy...

He came home last Sunday and proudly declare that he bought me not one but two Glade Lavender air freshener... We still have 1/3 left.. He opened one and then yesterday he said, eh macam tak bau ah.. I nak bukak lagi satu ah.. I tak kisah.. Nanti you bau nie Lavender, you relax and calm... So he open another one and now my room has three Lavender air freshener.. Kalau tak relax and calm pon tak tau lah kan..

I slept at 4am yesterday since I couldn't sleep... At 3am, i suddenly told Ayie I smell maggi.. I ask you nak?? He say can ah.. So the two of us badok maggi kul 3 pagi... He say, tak penah yang i buat keje macam nie.. Takper.. There is always a first time...

Ayie is busy concentrating on his exams.. nanti lepas exams he needs to get home and concentrate on being a father... Must be hectic for him eh...

As for me, Dr ask me to refrain from walking to much as I might not make it till Fri if I do.. So I lek lek one corner jer lah eh...

I bought Ayie his advanced birthday present yesterday.. An Oakley specs.. Not shades tau.. those prescribed ones meant for people with vision deficiency.. wakakkaa.. I like his specs but if I wear tak kene lah.. colour silver.. I would look good in the black one but I simply tak kuasa wanna buy.. Like waste kan spend so much on specs...

We visit Su house yesterday.. Su poke poke my tummy and she say it looks and feel scary.. Boleh gitu.. kekek.. When I shake my tummy she was like..eh takmo.. seram... kekekke.. They were so nice to send us home...

Okie my wrist dah sakit.. Cannot type oredi.. To all my friends and acquaintances.. Please pray for my delivery.. Thanks a lot..

Oh Baby is now 3.2kg...
