Songsang

It was the day of my routine check up. Currently, in my 30th weeks, I need to check up every 2 weeks. It was my 6th check-up so far.

As usual, had my urine check, blood pressure, tummy measured and part yg paling tak best, I had my weight measured also lah. Turn up my weight increase again about almost 1kg!!! Gambatteta noni naa...

Maternity aerobics does not show its result that fast. Usually it will take at least a month. So skrg I must be very very strict about my diet. No tip bits!!! I am trying to supplement it with fruits n see how it goes.

The nurse at the hospital, said I must maintain my weight if not, I might not be able to give birth at the hospital sbb takut nnt gemuk sgt susah nak bersalin. I seriously dont want to talk or think about the coincidence so I just keep quite and hopefully everything will go as smooth as b4. If not mistaken I gained 8 kg during my 1st pregnancy. N mase tu derang tak kata apape pun. Dont know why they are so particular this time.... I gained 7kg for the time being...

Ok then, after measuring the routine with nurse. I went in to see the doctor for ultrasound. Turn up, the lil' one is positioning his head on top and on the right side of my tummy. Doc asked me to sleep on my left side more and come again for an ultrasound next week. Until then, he is not suggesting anything but one after one possibility run into my head. Nak kena c-section ke? Camne nak handle rumah, baby n etc nnt? Ngeri nye nak operate! dan mcm2 lg. I am trying very2 hard not to think too much. Please baby position yourself normally. U r one strong baby!!

Furthermore, my 2nd trimester blood test came out ok. No excess sugar but since every time my urine test came out with a little excess sugar. The doc advice me to go for a glucose test at a bigger hospital just to make sure its not diabetic. I am going to go for that test this coming Friday and will post about it next time.

Itula, sape suruh melantak tak ingat kat Mesia kan dah susah diri sendiri. I am wondering camne la nak beranak kat Mesia nnt. Kalu blk kejap je dah naik itu ini. Kalu dok sana for good camne? I just cant imagine...

Orphan

Ever since Harris's around, me and hubby learn to watch movies in the day light. Not like b4 when the later is better. Not that we like to stay late. Its just that the price is much more cheaper. In Japan, a normal movie ticket cost 1800yen. Student price cost 1500yen and late show (8:30pm above) cost 1200yen.

The nearest cinema around us is called Park Place that is also a shopping mall. I think it has the biggest JUSCO in Oita city. The cinema has special price for ladies that is on Wednesday and mens on Friday. The cost is only 1000 yen. Since I always go with my hubby to the cinema, we cant go on the designated days. Lain la kalu bleh tukar jantina hahahaha

So we always try to watch a movie during Cinema Day, that is when all movies cost only 1000yen on the first day of every month. No gender ristriction and so on.

However, we just know that all foriegn student in Oita can get special discount on the ticket no matter what day or time we want to watch movie. All we need to do is show our student ID card and pay only 1000 yen anytime.

So last week, we took a day off at the university and went to see movie "Orphan". Its a thriller/horror movie. I am not so keen to that kinda movie but since I know it does not has anything to do with ghost. So I watched.


The movie is about a husband and wife who recently lost their baby adopt a 9-year-old girl who is not nearly as innocent as she claims to be. The rest must watch la baru thrill. ;)

The story was better than I expected. Mana tak nye the 1st 10 min dah buat aku rase kecut perut. Takut giler nak bersalin rase. It has lots of places where my heart pounding like crazy that by the time the movie finish ketiak sudah basah sbb berpeluh hihihi

Ok la thats all about the movie, nak tau lebih2 tgk sendiri hehehe ;P

Ni plak pic Harris nyorok belakang pintu mase tgk citer Upin & Ipin the movie.

Maternity Diet

I will be officially on maternity diet starting from tomorrow. Why tomorrow? Sbb td baru saje melantak ice cream at the university coop hehehe ;P

Ni sume gara2 sbb my gynae said I need to reduce on taking too much nutricious a.k.a. calories in my foods. Blk Mesia punya pasal la ni. Mkn xhingat dunia. Skrg tgk sape yg susah.

I gained a total of 6 kg from the start of pregancy until now. Tetiba naik 3 kg from previous check up mana doc tak terkejut.

Then talk with head of nurse yg juga bidan kat situ. She said it is better to remain my weight as it is now. Camne ni nak maintain???!!! Sbb skrg asal bgn jek nak mkn. Mlm2 pun tido cepat sbb tak mau bg perut lapar.

Kerana sgtla terkejut dgn berat badan skrg maka I joined maternitery aerobics at the maternity clinic last week. It was fun and refreshing for me after a long holiday. Next day sakit badan sbb dah lama xbergerak ;P Yg best skali about this class sbb ada private trainer. Walaupun ada 2 org lg yg share trainer yg same. For 800 yen an hour I dont mind la sharing.

So skrg I need to reduce my sugar intake (that mean no tip bits n so on) and exercise as much as I can. Ok tak? :D

Harris the kampung boy.

Looking Back on Our Raya

How was your Raya? Best ke tak best? For me, semestinya BEST!! :D

Our theme color for this year is blue again. If I am not mistaken last year pun biru jugak. Ni hubby nye idea so that he dont have to buy a new baju melayu. For me, mesti kena ada baju baru walaupun warna yg same.

Tgk tu betape biru nye kami di pagi raya. Nasib baik cushion xwarna biru jugak.

First time raya di Kltn mmg best. Maklumla family ramai, meriah jugak la. Family hubby buat adat bg duit raya malam kat rumah atok nye. So time tu la best skali utk budak2. Panjang betul barisan nye. As for me, this is my first time bagi duit raya camni. Maklumla sblm ni xpernah raya kat Msia as a person with income ;P

Sampul duit raya import dr Jepun lg.

Tp satu jek yg tak best raya kat kltn ni. I DIDN'T GET TO EAT ANY RENDANG!! Baru tau yg org kltn ni tak mkn rendang. Derang byk mkn kuzi, satay etc. Kuah masak lodeh pun takde. 2 hari lepas baru 1st time pekena masak lodeh utk raya thn ni mase jamuan raya kat Beppu. Serious kat kltn ni mmg makanan derang lain sket. Xde yg pedas2. For me tak kick la kalu xde yg pedas2 tu... Tp walaupun makanan lain but still bleh naik 3 kg this holiday in Msia. I gained 1 kg every week!! Terkejut tgk nombor kat penimbang.

One more thing yg tak best sket tahun ni. Kami xde gambar raya bertiga! Harris moody sket hari tu. Even nak suruh pakai baju melayu pun xnak. Pagi2 lg dah berperang nak pakai baju melayu. Hopefully raya haji nnt sempat amik gambar bertiga.
