Our princess: Alya Syifa

I already past 40 weeks; keep on asking hubby this open ended question ;when the baby will come out? He..he... I have been at home since I was 38 weeks. My part for the review paper; SUBMITTED, update for clone library screening; DONE. So I was relaxing, doing some reading, trying new recipe and doing bit of cleaning every day as Syahid never stop scattering his toys all over the place. Pity Ahmad Syahid he missed all his friends at school (I think). It's Ok Syahid, we'll try to get a place in school for you :)

Manage to bake pandan sponge cake.Second trial apparently :) It turn out better than the first!
Sempat juga buat donut dan dipass ke jiran terdekat Kak Naz and Kak Irma. Lots of activity on a single day. Yet, why there was no sign of baby coming out?

The next morning,27 January 2011; 3rd day past 40 weeks, I woke up still feeling excellent, solat subuh and decided to lie down again before getting ready for the last appointment with the midwife at RHW.
7.00 a.m : Hmmm...maybe the false alarm has started again( or will this be time?)

Reached ROW by 8.15 a.m, the pain is getting stronger but of course I can still walk. When Jo( the midwife) asked me "How are you my darling?" I told her about the pain. Baby position and heartbeat still OK.

" Will you ring the delivery suit if you're at home now?" Jo asked.
" Yup, I think I will"
" Ok, then I think we better check your serviks"
" Ok"
" OMG, you're 8cm dilated. I'll send you to the delivery suite right away"
" Oh! Really? Ok " I was a bit startled, start to feel nervous and suddenly confuse at the same time. Betul ke baby dah nak kuar ni? To the delivery suite we go :)

After some painful contraction, a bit of 'polite' scream and pushing....SURPRISE! Congratulation! You got a baby girl. Alya Syifa isn't she gorgeous? and she is almost alike her brother Ahmad Syahid except for the pointed chin :)
Alhamdulillah...Syukur padamu Ya Allah

Fuhhs..bersawang! Tup..tup.. nak umum bakal ketibaan org baru :)

Masya Allah, lama sangat tak jenguk blog ni. Memang takde bakat menulis kot. Anyway,today I am 39 weeks and 4 day pregnant for the second baby. Sangat excited; Ahmad Syahid dah 4 years old tau. Nervous at the same time; with many isues: nervous nak masuk labour room, nervous nak kena stay up memalam, nervous whether I can cope with my PhD. Ya Allah! hanya padaMu kupanjatkan doa dan harapan agar. Moga2 semuanya OK.

Saturday at 17/2 Gray Crescent

Ahmad Syahid senang lena di sebelah. Hubby p main futsal di Tempe. Ini rutin biasa hari Sabtu di Australia ni. Bersenang-senang di rumah.Pagi tadi kami ubah rutin sedikit. Tiga beranak p coastal walk dari Coogee ke Clovelly. tak berani p jauh sebab kasihankan Syahid. Dia memang excited dan berlari dan melompat-lompat naik tangga. Tapi dalam perjalanan balik, separuh jalan dia dah buat-buat lembik. Tak nak jalan dan mintak didukung he..he..Kesian abah..
Syahid lena lagi. Penat sangat agaknya berlari tadi. Saja ditenung-tenung muka syahid, memang bersyukur sangat diberi peluang menjadi seorang ibu. Allah Maha kaya kan. Memang dihadirkan perasaan kasih dan belas pad manusia tatkala memandang wajah anak kecil. Ummi saayang Ahmad Syahid...Anak baru seorang (planning to have more...tapi tatau bila..Ya Allah berikanlah kekuaatan pada hambamu ini).

Project caterpillar

Last week kasi Syahid peluang untuk cuba water colour. Disebabkan rumah kami semuanya "carpeted" kecuali kitchen dan toilet, maka terlaksanalah project tersebut di kitchen 17/2 Gray Crescent.

Ahmad Syahid memberus gigi

Jarang sangat Ahmad Syahid memberus gigi dengan betul. Dia lebih gemar makan ubat gigi yang ummi belikan untuk buat Ahmad Syahid tertarik nak memberus gigi.Lately teknik ni nampaknya berkesan. Ahmad Syahid diberi berus gigi ummi dan ummi sebaliknya. Jadi dua beranak pun lawan memberus gigi di hadapan cermin. Ummi berus gigi Syahid, syahid berus gigi ummi. Dapatlah ummi tolong beruskan gigi Ahmad Syahid yeay!

Rindu...

Sukar ditafsirkan.. Ada masanya payah diungkapkan..Kadang-kadang tidak dimengertikan.Pedihnya menusuk jauh ke dalam hati..

Indahnya sebuah perkahwinan

Merapatkan ukhuwah dua keluarga yang mungkin selama ini tak pernah pun mengenali. Melimpah ruah kasih sayang anak menantu, ipar duai, cucu-cicit....bahagianya
