3rd trimester...

here comes the last trimester of my pregnancy!

berselera betul ummi makan sekarang. asyik menyumbat tuna sandwich dalam mulut. so the opposite of my earlier pregnancy days.

Chimoot very very active. dah start susah nak tido, furthermore ummi selalu tido lambat sebab wat assignment, dah kul 3-4 tu mana nak tido sgt lagi. pusing pusing pun dah susah. normal la ni... Jazz dulu pun camtu gak.

How time flies.... Chimoot's coming out already. ummi pun dah nak graduate... wow it's gonna be very hectic these two months!

Check up 01 November 2006

Chimmoot dah semangat dah...!!

now i hafta quit worrying bout Chimmoot being so ciput, she's actually big and healthy now. Ummi naik 4 kg after raya! huiyoo ummi better watch your sugar intake ya ummi, very naughty ummi eat kuih tart pagi petang siang malam, now i gain weight too fast already. Extremist betulla ummi ni.

the syringe got me twice tonight. first for blood test, second for ATT. mann the ATT injection hurts till now! kejap lagi kena tuam sikit sebab merah. Oedema got a bit already, mana taknya ummi dok bantai santan santan raya aritu, rendang la, mee kari laa, lontong la... nenek la ni tah apa mimpi dia masak santan santan tahun ni biasa dia masak laksa, tahun ni takdak laksa pun.

baby looks very well... kepala baby dah position kat bawah! wahhh... awal betul baby take position ni. air ketuban cukup, uri pun normal... alhamdulillah. everything going well, syukur pada Allah. Ummi kena rajin2 baca Surah Maryam lepas ni, dah nak masuk 7 bulan dah ni!!!

*smiles*

My Weird Tastebuds!

I have a thing bout spicy stuffs now.

after abah went to werk, i felt a weird longing, longing for chillies.

So i went to d kitchen, blended some dried and fresh chillies, cut some onions and a wee-bit of garlic, made a little air asam jawa, and cooked sambal tumis. semata-mata sambal tumis. jap lagi leh makan dengan nasik impit yang ada lebih semalam.

throughout this pregnancy i haf been crazy bout spicy stuffs. but the problem is, now dat i am 27 weeks pregnant, my bump is already big and it's normal to haf some minor heartburn. but when i continously eat spicy stuffs, the heartburn becomes so damn iritating. so sekarang nak ikut yang mana, selera ke iritation?

hai.. entahlah... nak pi bantai sambal dah sat lagi, pagi pagi buta ni.

Here she is...

look at her pointed chin, mahal tu :op~ hehe

Most Prolly... another SHE!

We had detailed scanning yesterday!

Everything looks fine, jari tangan, kaki cukup. no mouth clamping, nose is fine, heartbeat good, brain system looks normal, kidney available so is the pundi kencing, growth looks good a bit minus a few days but still on track... yang cannot be seen is only the gun :op~

doctor tried to search for the gun, shook her a little, nahh... the gun's not there. so not coming to 100% conclusion yet but Chimoot is most prolly adds another girlie in our house! hehe if true, sian abah tader geng. 3 vs 1 now. hehe... and ummi'll gets more assistants in d kitchen later, and baju kat umah takyah beli, baju Sis Jazz banyak hehe. owh she'll get baju baru definitely, like i dunno d father. berjalan sikit beli baju anak. almost every week!

belum dapat post her pix here yet, cus my scanner dah doomed, waiting for abah to scan it. so i'll update later. but she looks so cute in the pic, her face was so clear! she got almost pointed chin and muka bujur sirih :o)) Syukur Alhamdulillah everything's normal with her. her expected date is still early February 2007.

next check up would be a week after raya, 1st of November. ummi most prolly kena amik darah sampai sekarang tak test lagi. but since everything's fine nuthing much to worry! :o))))

Scary scary day...

yesterday was d scariest day in the whole event of my current pregnancy so far.

in the afternoon i was sitting at my computer desk for quite a long period, then when i got up, my backside was all wet, and i really mean wet.

i thought my water leaked, and got worried until nite. but i wasn't feeling any sharp pain, and there's no more leaking towards nite, so i got confused and i dunno whether i should go to the doctor or not. made a phone calls to my mom, mother in law, my cuzin who is a lecturer-nurse, but they're not sure of it either. last call made to Az Zahrah where i usually have my routine check-ups, after a few q&a a doctor said i must go seek a doctor (or better still gynae) n check.

and so we went, i was already in tears, because i read in the internet if my water leak now at 23-24 weeks, chances for baby to survive is little and if they do survive, there's a big chance the baby would not be normal. it scared me (later on i found out it's a bad move to search on d net when u dunno what exactly is happening).

arriving at the doctor i was admitted straight to emergency section, a doctor did an annoying test where she hadta insert sum kinda metal instrument in me, it looks like sumthing u use to insert an IUCD but it's metal (for those who had gone through that will know). She said she couldn't see any leakage but she's not certain as they Medical Center didn't haf any litmus paper to verify the pH of my vagina (haiyer, litmus paper osso dun haf... go take at my science lab at skool la, they haf a lot). but she said there's much discharge coming out and dat could be the reason why i felt wet. she gave me a weird medicine to be inserted (again *sigh*) nightly, just for precautions so dat less bacteria could go into the amniotic fluid and also cure the discharge. she told me to wear pad and watch out for more signs of leakage.

since d doctor wasn't certain i was still worried. but since i haf a presentation today i tried to stay calm and focus on my Web Design throughout d nite before going to sleep. when i wake up this morning, 1st thing i did was checking the leakage, nope, no leakage but a lot of discharge. so the doctor's 2nd conclusion was right, i'm having quite a lot of discharge and with time, i feels wet. *phewh* u can't imagine how LEGA i feel!! it was so scary, and the fear of losing my baby again did come to my mind.

today i haf no choice but to go to school, i'm not taking d bus today unless i hafto. i'm trying to get dad to send me. i'm so scared to even walk fast again.

After 23 weeks...

today i enter my 24th week of pregnancy, in completion of this week 7 days later, i'll begin my journey into my 3rd trimester!

Chimmoot is very very active, kicking everyday. i'll notice when he wakes up, he'll move around as if there's a football field inside my womb :o). Although his size isn't as big as his sister, I think he's in a good health. My fastings are okay too, i dun eat much when berbuka, but i drink a lot! i do haf fears sumtimes of dehydration or lack of air ketuban, but often when i fell worried, Chimmoot will start kicking like he wanna tell, 'Ummi, I'm fine, really!' so my fear subside.

Next week I'm scheduled for a detail scanning, owh I can't wait! cus there's a big chance for us to know Chimmoot's gender. i dunno, i really feel the urgency to know this time, unlike Jazz, we didn't exactly know until she was born.

I thank God for a smooth pregnancy up until now, even smoother than Jazz's time. with the haze and heat, my conditions are generally fine. i dun haf terrible asthma, just that slight dehydration problem during the earlier days. Alhamdulillah... and i hope this scenario stays up until Chimmot's birthday.. :o))

here's iVillage Daily Calendar writings on baby's development for today...
Size Your baby weighs a little over a pound and is about 8 1/2 inches long -- the size of a banana.
Development Your baby's skin becomes less translucent as pigment is deposited, and it looks wrinkly because her body is making her skin more quickly than it makes the fat to pad underneath it. Your baby's unique hand- and footprints are forming.
