Shopping outing

October 31, 2007

Such a bliss.

I went for a shopping outing today, with my dear friend in OU.

Overall here’s what i bought:

~from Mothercare

  • Crib/Moses Cell Blanket (for swadle use)
  • socks (pair of 5s)
  • disposable nursing pads (packs of 100)

~from PepeMom

  • a  sleeping set (long sleeves)

~from Bebehaus

  • Milkmaid Tea (to enhance milk production after delivery- in case i’m short of supply)

~from Parkson

  • sets of bodysuits from BabyKiko, Disney & pab.

Sungguh seronok rupanye membeli belah ni kan..;p Lagi seronok sebab bukan $$ kita yang kopak. hehe.

Bila balik rumah, baru perasan dah byk juga barang2 baby yg dah dibeli sebelum ni (even ade byk lagi yg nak kene beli). Some of the things are:

  • Muslin squares
  • Avent sterelizer
  • cottons & baby shampoos
  • changing mat
  • sleepsuits & ‘onesies’
  • mittens & bootees
  • wet tissues

I’m quite particular with the brand because i believe that good baby brand’s item will last longer. Tapi xde lah hardcore sampai sume barang  nak kene beli from Mothercare. Mahal ok! How i wish i’m in UK now so that i can shop at mothercare sesuka hati. Tapi wish aje lah kan…

On the other hand, we haven’t decide yet either to buy baby’s cot because we haven’t really discuss as where the baby will sleep after the confinement. Most of my friends who bought the cot will end up wasted it with toys n other stuff as their baby refuse to sleep in it. So macam rugi lah kan sebab beli abt RM200-RM300 tapi x guna sgt pun. Then samada nak beli buaian or not. Kalau ikut my mum, mmg dia galakkan beli buaian becoz she said baby will sleep longer with the buaian. Tapi susah jugak kalau bergantung dgn buaian ni becoz kalau travel, tak ke jenuh nak angkut buaian ke sana ke mari. Kalau balik seremban selamatlah becoz mmg dah siap ade buaian kat situ, tp kalau balik my hubby’s side, kene lah angkut buaian balik. Erm… kene pikir jugak tu kan….

On my update, now i’m at 31 weeks and started to feel exactly the way i felt during my 1st trimester. Exhausted, back ache, frequent urination, sleepy and always hungry. I surprised myself yesterday as i managed to habiskan 1 polisterine penuh nasi ayam (which i never did before even i was starving). Since my perut dah semakin besar, i’m having quite a difficult time to do simple physical routines like membongkok, getting up from the floor and even i can’t stand sujud yang lama when praying. Rasa tak boleh bernafas. I can not imagine how those lady with huge belly menghadapi hari mereka. Baby’s have been very2 active lately, especially at night. Sampai senget and bergegar perut i dibuatnya. Kadang2 rasa geli pun ada. But lil’one is very clever, whenever hubby is beside me, lil’one wont move a bit. Diam je. Maybe dia takut (??) or segan dengan abi dia kot. heheh

Will have an appoinment with Dr.N this Friday. Tak sabar nak tahu lil’ones progress. Dah berapa berat lil’one sekarang ek??

@ 28 weeks

We went for 3-D scan last Wednesday at KPJ Sentosa, Kajang. Abi and I were both excited to see lil’one live on screen. Prior to that, the night before and also when we were on our way to the hospital, I talked to lil’one to give response or any gestures when we were on the scan process. Well, you know what lil’one did?

Lil’one was sucking its toe!!

Aiyooo..

At 1st glimpse we thought it was the hand. Even the Doc thought so. But Ummi had a very sharp eyes and said it was the toe. Not quite sure which side though… So live on-screen we watched lil’one sucking its toe for quite a while.

However, we didnt had the chance to see the little movie again because the Doc forgot to save the movie in the hard-disc. So no CD for us. We only had a coloured- 3D print and the usual 2D print. =]

Apart from the scan, we also did the detail scan and so far, alhamdulillah…lil’one is in a healthy condition. Heart-ok, nose bridge-present, limbs-ok, liver-ok, kidney-ok. My lil’one now weights 1.05kg. Alhamdulillah. Its just that during the check-up, lil’one was still in bridge breech  position. The Doc said, maybe it was too early for lil’one to change the position.

On ummi’s part, i didnt gain any weight since last check-up. Maybe its because of the fasting so ummi maintained at 68.4kg. Bagus lah x naik berat kan, yang penting lil’one gained weight. My glucose level is normal, blood pressure is ok. We are progressing well. That is good enough.

So later that Friday, I went again for antenatal check-up with my Gynae, Dr.N. Saje je nak jumpa dia and inform her abt the detail and 3D scan. As usual, we did the scan and to my surprise, lil’one’s already engaged. Cepatnya anak ummi ni tukar position. hehhe. 

Dr.N examined my breast and expressed a bit concerned of my right nipple which she said a bit inverted. She suggested that i stimulate the nipple during shower. I did exactly as what she suggested but i still have concerns about it.

So mummies out there, can you give me tips on how to overcome this problem?
