Jibberish...

A friend once said this to me and it somehow got stuck in my mind....

To the Christians...All Christians will go to heaven and those who do not follow Christianity will be damned to Hell.

To the Buddhist...All Buddhist are going to heaven and everyone else will be going to Hell.

To the Hindu...All Hindis will go to Heaven and those who do to follow hiduism will go straight to Hell....

and the list goes on....

Funny that all religion has the same view...there is a Heaven and there is a Hell. But if we look at a combined picture...Looks like everyone is going to Heaven...or is Everyone going to Hell...

I think I'll choose Heaven....

Welcome Trimester 2!!!!!!

This means I’m now in my 2nd trimester. I have to admit, although the appetite isn’t too good, but the nausea has reduced by 80%. I’m happier than before.

I am now able to stay up at night till 10pm the latest and still survive the day after. Truly an achievement after having 8pm as my bed time for sometime……

Nabil is reacting well to the concept of having a new baby. Sara Ayesha is still gasping on the idea of having a sibling. The more I try to explain to her, the more she wants to be nursed. And I’m trying ever so hard to stop nursing her. We’re down to nursing at night and during travel (she can’t resist nursing in the car, I’m thinking its something like me not being able to resist sleep in the car…lol)

In the mean time…..School reopens 6th Jan 2010. Nabil will be in K1 and Ayesha will be in Pre K (hope I got their classes right). It’ll be Ayesha’s first year in school. Not that she’s never been to a ‘school’ before as she was doing Tumble Tots since she was 6 month old. But this is everyday school. Can’t believe my kids have grown so much…

Still remember Nabil’s first day at school (it was only last year). He just went in and left us parents standing at the gate. Wonder how Ayesha will do…Nabil had the upper hand of spending some time with his teacher during the registration. For Ayesha, we didn’t bother coming in for registration….it was all done vie the phone & internet. Sunggu maju kita sekarang. But then again, Ayesha has been to the school many times before this. So that’s a plus point for her. We’ll just have to wait and see. I bet you this anxiety will be triple fold when they start primary.

Facebook

I like it. It sorts of gets you connected to others without having to talk. For people like me, who do not socialize much, its great.

But I do realize there are several ethics that one should adhere. For instance, respect. Everyone gets a chance to say something but its like this. My page is my home, I should be able to say anything I want. Therefore, if you don’t like it just ignore it. Don’t try to be a smart alec. Just respect the other’s persons interest. Read it if u want, but shut up if I don’t have anything good to say. In other words, Thou shall enter the house but Thou shall not be rude. Got something nasty to say, use your own page. Say what u want in your own page.

Although, your page in your home….it isn’t your bed. So, if you have something private to say to your love ones..keep it private. Seriously, if last night was great, it was really great….you don’t need to announce it on FB..unless of couse you are so insecure that you need to be re-assured.

Sharing is good. I love it when a friend shares her adventures and experiences. You get to imagine other’s life and perhaps spice up your own life. Just because someone put some nice pictures of their holiday doesn’t mean that they’re showing of. Take it positively and be aspired to achieve as what others have.

Hell, I’m not prefect, neither are you.

I love my life and my family. I may not be super rich but I’m comfy. I don’t keep up with the Jones. I just live my life. Always had and always will. I do no pretend to be something when I am not.

P#3 W11

Morning sickness seems to be slowly kicking out of my system. I now try to maintain a 7 meals a day diet. Detrimental to my weight? Really hope not. My diet kindda looks like this

Breakfast : 2 pcs of whole meal bread

Morning Break : Anmum milk + what ever I have on my table

Pre lunch : Nasi with Ikan bakar & ulam

Lunch : something at home

Post lunch : Fruits & snacks

Tea : Crackers with cheese

Dinner : something at home + dessert

There you go, and still last night, after that steak dinner (which didn’t all settled in my tum tum), I wanted Roti pisang. But because I was not in the mood to go out , just in case Ayesha wanted me, I didn’t have anything. What happened instead was the steak coming out. Moral of the story…if I feel like having something, better get it else the rest of my tummy isn’t gonna be happy. Later, I settled for a midnight snack of Maggi whilst watching Twilight.

Believe or not, with this increase in the number of meals, my tummy looks smaller. My guess is that its less bloated now.

In the mean time, I’m still working on my conversations with Ayesha. I need her to stop nursing. I know I’m gonna miss her and she’s gonna miss me, but we’re gonna have to work something out. After all, Ayesha will be starting school next month. She’s excited, so I might just use that…

Pregnancy #3

I'm entering my W10. How am i doing? blah.... Still struggling at keeping my food in. But things are getting better. Alhamdulillah.

I'm so set to get the Medela Freestyle. I've found a site offering it at RM1500. That...is such a great deal compared to RM2300 retail price. I hope the offers lasts till June 2010.

To complement my Fs, i'll need to get some playtex liner. Think i'll get 2 boxes, 1 of the 4oz and 1 of the 8oz. Gotta clean up my steriliser, haven't used it for more than a year...:) What else....oh yeah, makes sure that Mama does not stock up too many things in the freezer. Thank god for the standalone freezer at home. I'll aim to fill up at least 2 drawers during my confinement. I do hope my plan goes well....

For now, my wish list looks like this :

1. Medela Freestyle
2. Wrap.....still have yet to figure out the perfect one for me, but i'm sure i'm gonna be needing one, with 2 kids around me, baby will have to be worn....:)
3. Rumparooz gumball
4. Muttaqin NB

haha, i'm pretty sure this list will grow.

W7 of 3rd Pregnancy

I’m just so tired all the time. I do agree that during this first trimester the body is adjusting and working really hard. My lack of food intake isn’t helping.

Comparatively….

1st pregnancy – Just concentrate on getting thru the day. Travel from home to work and back home.

2nd pregnancy – Getting thru the day with Nabil beside me. Travel from home to work/mom’s place and back home, with Nabil in the car.

3rd pregnancy – Getting thru the day with Nabil & Ayesha. Travel from home to school to work to school to work and back home, with 2 kids in the car. Ayesha’s still breastfeeding.

During all pregnancies, I’m maidless. This time around I’ve resorted to no cooking. But still I’m tired…

And its a number 3...

Since I hardly made any records during any previous pregnancies, this time around I think I’ll do it. Because I can hardly remember the details of my previous pregnancies and I wish I had….So, this is it.

30/10/2009 (Friday) – I decided to do a self test. Had no recollection of my previous menses…at all. But one this is for sure, I’ve not had my menses since I sent the maid back on 29/9/2009. My belly is so bloated and I’m very emotional. Heck, I deleted a friend from my Facebook simply because I can’t stand her idiotic school girl behaviour of having to win all the time. ‘Girl, eve if u want to win…do it in your own life…’ So, got back from work, told DH that I wanted to get a kit from Gurdian ( I got a simple Gurdian brand kit as it says there 99% accuracy as per laboratory test), pick up the kids from Trops and head home. Put the kids to bed, and my turn to mandi. Did the test first…3 drops that’s all I needed. I could see the lines, but decided to ignore it until 3 minutes (that’s what the instruction said) After 3 mins, DH was anxious, he peaked first….then me…We’re both happy with the result, although we didn’t plan it…but nonetheless, we’re excited…

I’ve my doubt because a friend ask..All 3 was positive? Hahahah, I only did 1 test..OMG.
31/10/2009 (Saturday) – Told the kids early in the morning. They’re excited. Started taking my supplements today. Eating meals as normal. Looking for a new Dr..

2/11/2009 (Monday) – Set an appointment with Dr Siti for tomorrow. Used my loose pants, I started the day with it fully buttoned, by 10am, one button had to be undone, By the end of the day, I wanted to take off my pants…Eating meals as normal.

3/11/2009 (Tuesday) – Finally after waiting for hours, saw the Dr and she confirms that I’m 5 weeks. Due date is 7/7/2010 according to the scan. That was quick!

5/11/2009 (Thursday) – Drank my milo in the morning a bit too quick I think. Lack of sleep last night as we were fighting Nabil’s fever & the kids wanted to watch TV from 2-5am. Threw out a bit before my bath. Had French toast for breakfast, that went out too….:(
