Surprise!!!! (Part 1)

Tak sangka bulan 12 ni jer ada dua surprise for me. The first one from beloved hubby for our up coming anniversary this Thursday. He made the surprise about 2 weeks ago sbb takut terberanak awal. So far baby nak blum kuar lg, walaupun kekadang rase mcm baby nak kuar cepat jer. Hopefully, baby akan kuar as schedule...


Kolam hot spring

Ok, berbalk pada citer surprise td. One Saturday, tetiba hubby ckp, "esok I nak bawak u gi somewhere. Selama ni u jer plan nak gi sana sini so kali ni bg la I plan plak." So I just follow jer lar. Oleh kerana tak mau rase tertanye sepanjang perjalanan dlm keter. I slept bersama2 dgn Harris kat belakang. Terjaga jugak la kekadang on the way tu. Tp buat xtau jer dan cepat2 pejam mata blk. hehehe ;P


Living room

Sampai jer tempat tu, baru la tau its an Onsen (hot spring) place. Onsen with a living room + toilet + bathroom. Jepun panggil Higaeri Onsen. Its a little bit different from normal family type hot spring. Kalau kat normal hot spring, xde proper place to change clothes. Kalau kat sini, ada bilik so senang nak salin baju dan kalau bawak budak kecik pun senang dan tempat ni pun agak spacious.


Toilet with a washlet.


Lepas relax2 berendam for about 90 mins. Kami singgah pergi beli Starbuck inside Oita University Hospital for some hot coffee. Rase sgt la BEST, badan panas + hot coffee. Rase mcm nak tertidor jer sepanjang perjalanan blk tp kesian plak kat driver so tak jadik tido.

Thanks papa!!! I really luv this year present. Hope u will like my present too.


2nd surprise to be continue....

Looking Back...

Sometimes, the lesser time I have to write seriously, the more I have the idea to write in this blog. As if like a disease in me that always force me to do so. I am suppose to submit 2 paper b4 my due date which is in a few weeks or so. I had one paper done loooong time ago. Maybe need to review and touch-up here and there. Currently, I am writing another boring paper on a theory and concept of self-reliance and trying to make it look like a conference paper.

Actually, I am currently more anxious + excited with this lil' one inside me more than writing boring stuffs. Sometimes, afraid if something goes wrong or suddenly my water broke at the university yada yada... Mcm2 la pk skrg nih.

Then, this feeling reminds me back when I had Harris. I can still remember we used to have frequent earthquakes for a few weeks b4 delivery that make me really nervous staying at home all alone. I still remember having contractions every hours at nite and when I called my gynae he said to come in the next day morning. Which I did and only to be told to come back again the next day because I was only dilated 2cm. Before that, I got a small pink spotting that is normal before the actually labor begin.

The next morning, June 15, 2007 (Friday), we did another check-up. My contraction was getting shorter but I was not feeling so painful even though doctor said I am dilated for 6cm already! I feel the pain but not unbearable one just like a little strong period pain. A friend of mine said she almost felt like dying when she was dilated for 6cm. She sort of envy me when I told her I was not feeling that painful.

That day, the doctor did say I need to check-in into one of the room in his clinic but he also said "Go back home. Take your lunch and come back around 2pm like that." We did actually that, we went to the grocery store near by to buy some foods for both moms. Since my mom doesnt cook, MIL cooked Sotong Singge yg sgt delicious.

Around 2pm, off we went to the clinic. Doctor examine me again and told me my water had broke naturally which I didnt realized when...  Then around 3pm, the senior midwife induced me as well as checking the baby heart beat. After 30 min +-, she came back and induced more since I am not in so much pain yet.

Around 4pm, I started to feel strong contraction and the midwife teach me how to breath during contraction. Rase dah blajar dulu but when the time come terus lupa hahahaha Around 5pm, the contraction is getting shorter and also MORE painful.

6pm, the midwife decided to send me (actually I walked) to the labor room along with hubby. The labor doesnt look like a labor room at all. It looks more like a normal room with a bed like the one in pic below. The bed can act as reclining chair and also a movable bed. The room even have washlet toilet. I knew coz I used it for tut tut. Xbleh tahan la. Actually, at that time I can really tell whether its the contraction pain or rase nak berak... hehehe


(The holder rase mcm nak tercabut mase thgh push hehehe)


From 6pm onward, I can't really remember much. I can only remember how painful it was and I was only thinking patut la pompuan Jepun xmau beranak! hehehe Oh, and it was really hot at that time. The airconditioner was at it max. Hubby and midwife were freezing. Kesian kat depa but I am the one in pain. Derang la kena sabar kan. I even tanya dgn nada yg agak tinggi, "Xde cara lain ker nak duduk or baring time contraction ni?" The midwife said "No, there are no other way". I didnt believe her and decide to duduk bersila and feeling Harris head pushing strongly toward the vagina. 

Almost around 9pm, I vomitted maybe because of the pain. I just cant bear the head pushing anymore and ask the midwife to measure me again. After she measured, she called the doctor and I am ready to push. After 25min of hard pushing, Harris came out and when the midwife show him to me, he peed on me!! Never felt so happy being peed on hahaha


(This was b4 he peed on me hehehe)


After all going through all these, if ppl ask me if I can do this again? I will answer, "HELL, YES!!"

Prenatal Check Up: 8th Visit + 2012

I am currently in my 37th weeks of pregnancy. My baby is now considered as full-term. That mean I can deliver him anytime from 37- 40 weeks of pregnancy. Last Friday, during check-up, the doc checked for GBS (Group B Streptococcus) bacteria in the vagina. GBS bacteria is not harmful at all to adults but it is harmful to newborns. From my readings, GBS disease can cause sepsis (an infection in the blood), pneumonia and meningitis in newborns.

Getting in an examination chair is not so comfortable but for the sake of my baby what the hack. "These kinda process is normal",  is what I always said to myself. Next time, insyallah in Malaysia I would like to have a lady doctor to be my gynae.

My weight increased again, about 1.5kg (baby weight maintain jer). All due to the eating during Raya Haji. Our Msian foods are really fattening lor... So for now on, I am trying very very hard to eat more Japanese foods as there are more healthier. 

Weight increased also mean that I am VERY heavy now!! Seriously, I dont like myself now but I cant help eating. Not that I am eating a lot. It just that what ever I ate seem to stay and accumulate to become extra fat.

I am promising myself here, that I will eat more healthier after delivery and excerise more too. I will go to after maternity aerobics as soon as I can. This is going to be my next year resolution, period!

After check-up, we went to watch 2012. It was oklah. Just like other similar movies like this, where many ppl will die and some will survive. Some scenes are considered too fake with too much effects. Though, I did cried at some scenes. Specially, where there is family involved. Just cant help crying la. Hubby also cannot tahan air mata hehehe Next, I hope to watch Disney movie "Up".

Hari Raya Haji in Beppu 2009

Kalau tahun lepas Raya Haji di Kelantan sambil buat aqiqah Harris. This year kami beraya di Beppu la plak since raya puasa ari tu dah celebrate kat Msia.

This year the praying time was a little bit early. Slalu start dlm kol 8 camtu but this year it started at 7:30 SHARP!! We arrived around 7:40 but the praying had ended dan cume sempat dengar kutbah jer but jadi la drpd takde wat apape kat rumah.

I made puding roti gula hangus for all to mkn2 at the masjid. Alhamdulillah licin habis dan xsempat amik gambar pun. Lepas mkn2 we went to Tanoura Beach for a family photo session. Since dah pakai baju cantik, baik pi amik gambar.

Candid la konon 

 

Jom blk!! Harris dah bosan nih!


Lepas berfoto, we went home and I cooked masak lodeh, kerutuk ayam and nasi beriani for a mini mkn2 at my house. The previous nite I cooked kuah kacang + nasi impit and kerutuk daging. I had to do something on hari raya kalu idak xde feeling raya langsung. Org lain xde dengar pun nak wat open hse so baik la I open my house n ajak org dtg. At least bleh borak2 sambil mkn2 ape yg ada.

Alhamdulillah, cukup sume mknan sbb xde la buat byk sgt pun. What makes everything nicer, my visitors sempat plak tlg vaccum kan rumah n basuh kan pinggan b4 blk. I used disposable plates n cups to make it easier for me (well actually hubby sbb dia mmg tukang basuh pinggan in the hse) to clean up afterward. We all sgt la berterima kasih for the extra help :D Kalau mcm ni slalu, I akan slalu buat mkn2 mcm ni lg :-)


Rumah kotak Jepun! Baru bape org dah penuh.


Then later on Sunday, the Malaysian in Beppu (MEBI) organized a jamuan raya. I made nasi tomato, rendang daging and jelly mangga. This time mkanan sgt best2 blaka. Ibu2 dah makin lame, makin sedap memasak. Not that dulu xsedap. Sedap jugak but this time tah kenape rase sume best sgt2 hehehe

Beware: Air coffee tu agak addictive!
