i'm a mother of two!

hello hello blogspot.... hello 2013.. and Salam Maulidur Rasul..lonnngggg time i have not update! Well, to begin with, i am now a proud mother of two :)

So where shall i start? Let's put it this way:

January 7th 2013 - 8.00am

 

I was on leave. Previous check up with the Gynae, I was told baby inside is relatively a huge one. Weighed 3.3kg at 36 weeks! Geeee! The Gynae so decided in order to deliver vaginally, she suggested induced labour, known also as force labour, which was scheduled on January 8th, once the baby's lung mature perfection. So i've set in mind, this labor will be a lil bit different from the previous one, hence the leave.

 

The fateful Jan 7th, noon time, i was packing verrrrrrilyyyyy my final stuff for the hospital bag, when suddenly body started to shiver. Mannnn, I can't be sick! I'm going for labour! Was secretly telling myself. I stood still and in midst of trying to configure things, my temp rises! By having a good sleep i thought would somehow reduce the sickness but nayyyy. Ain't helping! I woke up at 5pm, and felt numb. I imediately called husband and by 7pm we were already at Pusat Rawatan Islam Az Zahrah. From the net reading, I understood that baby's temp inside the womb can also rises likely when the mom is. So I trust it's better to run a check just to ensure everything's ok.

 

BP checked, ctg checked. The practioner (not my gynae) assure that i'm all good to go home. Baby's heart beat was a tad bit fast, but according to him that is normal for pregnant woman who's down with fever. I was prescribed paracetamol and sent home to rest.

 

10.00pm

 

Reached home and I quickly climbed for bed rest. I am the type who rarely caught fever, maybe once in two years so?, but when i'm down with it, hands down. Excruciating! Temp reading was 39.5! I was just about to get another round of good sleep when suddenly I felt the urge to pee. Went to the toilet hurried, when out of burst a pool of water gushed from underneath.. I was dumbstuck for a few seconds before I could pick up the scene.

 

Oh my, Did my water just broke?

 

I sat down, and trying to be calm.. Yes, I started to feel the leaking. I did not peed a pool of water from no where, but it's the amniotic fluid. Same predicament when I was with Adam.. So, I told my husband and we grabbed the bag and I quickly sniffed some foods before wheeling straight away to Az Zahrah again. Well, I need food to push the lil baby out later on.

 

11.20pm

 

The nurses made a thorough check up on me and hooked me up to the ctg machine again. I remember then the nurses said, "eh dah 4cm ni".. Argh no wonder i started having discomfort. The contractions are felt, well in about 10 mins interval.. The nurses the left the two of us in the room and reminded me to practise breathing whenever the contractions came.. Of course, I managed whatsapping bff's on my condition. Thank you for the words gurls :)

 

Oh Adam was left with Owan and Omak. I overheard him asking from outside 'mana mommy'..ahh, poor boy.

 

the last smile before the real wave of contractions hits.

 

January 8th 2013

 

By 12.30pm the contractions gets real and further intense. Like every 3 mins? Yeah. I groaned, I swayed, and breathed every contractions. Husband's comfort words did not do any help at this point. All i remember saying was sighing "úhhh and ahhh" and awe-ing in pain. Mom and Grandma doing their best massaging my back, but neither both helped much.

 

It is soooo much pain, I must admit!

 

The nurse then came to check again and was suprised it's already 8cm cervix opening. Ah no wonder its unbearable. If you were wondering, no, I don't take any epi, gas, or what so ever. I was determined to endure the pain naturally, as it comes :)

 

I heard the nurses were literally discussing among them..labour room occupied.. bla..bla.. And the next thing i know, my leg were already stirred up to the panel. Delivery mat were placed accordingly. There were like 5 nurses? My cheerleadings :p 15 mins later my gynae came and took her position.. oh la la and the drama begins.

 

"Ok Fiza, contractions datang terus teran ye.."

 

To cut it short, I remembered pushing hard twice and then the gynae uttered "fiza satu kali lagi teran habes kuat fiza..tolong baby ni".. (since the head was already out) and with what all is left I did my very last push with all my might that finally brings the lil baby to the world. At 1.30am, January 8th 2013. Alhamdulillah.. I made it. Relieved :)

 

 

there you go my whooping 3.97kg baby boy delivered at 37 weeks! I don't believe it either! He's huuuuugeeee!

 

So that is my labour chapter, embarking the new year. Baby came just in time and NO induced labour :) On that fateful Tuesday, I became a mother of two. Will later continue on him and shoulder dystosia.

oh my happy feet!

 

current state i am..

hello december @ 32 weeks

so November bids farewell.. Hello December.. :)

I haven't been very consistent with my updates, have I? At least I'm writing some so BabyII will have a trail of idea on mommy's journey bringing him into the world. 

There's just so much happening in November. Best friends wedding, worktrip to Kelantan and touring the Asia's premier Legoland in Johor. Will later knock on it. 

For now, at 32 weeks, according to the famous What to Expect " Baby's starting to get ready for her big debut, tipping the scales at almost four pounds and topping out at just about 19 inches. In these past few weeks, it's all about practice, practice, practice as she hones the skills she'll need to thrive outside the womb — from swallowing and breathing to kicking and sucking. And speaking of sucking, your little one has been able to suck her thumb for a while now. Something else to note: As more and more fat accumulates under your baby's skin, he's becoming less transparent and more opaque".. 

Whoaa.. I started feeling this tightening sensation on lower part abdomen for quite sometimes. And a strained back too. Perhaps due to the enlarging bump and frequent walking on these past few days. And vividly, it puts me in the state of worries. Had a check done 3 days ago and Alhamdulillah baby seem to be in position already. Weighing at 2kg, he now has less room to swirl around. And wherever I go, I'll often get this remarks "eh, baby nampak dah turun tu.. x lama dah tu".. It further intensify the level of worries I have right now. Man, soo many things in mind to juggle.

Till then, will write again.

pink or blue?

jeng..jeng..jeng..

went for my scheduled detailed scan yesterday and heart beats skipping joy in the venture to know on the baby's gender. Well, I was secretly wishing for a girl this time, but did not make an appealing one. Having to go through different rhythm during the first trimester, I was a bit adamant in having to hold a princess. Adam dah ada, so mesti la nak Hawa pula kan? 

But, Allah knows best. Written in his book, Adam II is what I needed. I will need two bodyguards to company when I'm old later on. So I am all drizzling in happiness. As long as the baby's doing fine and I'm coping the journey well, Alhamdulillah. Praise be to Him the almighty. So yes, another prince is making it's way to see the world. :) There's always a reason for the next one :p

Adam ; 6 months young. 

pregnancy so far

time really went rocket. no more longer flies.. Raya passes, tho still i believe most of us is in much raya mood, munching the leftover ketupat and on the raya cookies. Well I am, no doubt :)

So as of today, my pregnancy has now come to 17 weeks along. Wee. tick tock tick tock.. Will soon carry the title mother of two! Intimidating much? Because honestly it's not an easy task for one to endure. Earlier, with Adam, I experience too little of sickness I can say. As compared to friends on the same boat during the time, I had never once puke when I was carrying Adam and husband must thank me enough for not having any silly cravings out of the moon. It was a smooth sailing journey and explains the weight gain profoundly. Gahh!

However, It's slightly different this time. Entering my 13th weeks, i started having this nausea-feeling like vomiting every morning, every time I wanted to brush my teeth! Absurd I was thinking. It was all fine during the first 12 weeks and suddenly the changes kicking on my nerves. The hormones perhaps. It slowly subside by noon, thank god! I nap everyday without fail during days for one hour plus. I was all drained by 5pm. All I did was lay back and wait patiently for Azan Maghrib. Fatigue! Fasting while being pregnant is no joke. Alhamdulillah tho, I managed myself not missing out fasting. *clap hands* Deliriously I found out myself fancy much for sour & spicy foods (in dire need of cili api when i was in Dublin, no wonder). I lost 3kgs during the last check-up (I'm fasting kan :p). Shall wait for this weekend for my next screening. 

Also, my biggest challenge was the trap winds! Made me feel uneasy through out the day. I somehow found my very own remedy for it. It's 100 PLUS! Omg, it works at that very instance, well for me at least! Husband kept on bugging that I cannot consume it daily, since it's carbonated. Only twice in a week, maybe? But I cheated :p. Felt soooo good having it.

Adam was all nice so far towards the baby in the tummy. Once in a while he'll asked "mommy baby tido ke?".. "mommy, baby dah makan ke?".. hehe.. But one thing I noticed, Adam has become more clingyyyy than ever. Like obviously. Sikit-sikit "mommy jangan tinggal Adam.." haihh.. drama king! So, I guess it's true on what the folks says. Kids can sense when mom's love about to be divided.

Sayang, you'll still be loved equally the same as baby InsyaAllah mommy promise.
