Starting a family...

It's a blessing that a woman is capable of bearing her own children... with Irdina adding up to the number 2 to make 3, i could not help but feel really blessed.

This is the starting point, our first step towards having a family... hopefully a big family with lots of children. I've always dreamed of having many children, 12 maybe? hehehe... with starting age of 31, plus with the cesarean section for the first one... i am not sure whether i can make it to 12... but really, i would be honored to have as many children as my body could bear... children of Shaiful Ridzuan, sisters and brothers to Shaima Irdina.

Silhouette? Dream about it for now achieve it some other day ;)

It has been two weeks since I've given birth to my little Irdina... Have i gained or lost weight? Frankly, I've lost only 4kgs, out of the 12 kgs gained during pregnancy... but I've gained some of the shape back... "SOME"... my stomach is not as bulging as the first day after delivery... ehehe.

I have never felt as rejuvenated as while in confinement... with hot soups (vege or chic or fish) with lots of ginger as main menu... my body adjusted well... but the downside is... Rashes and itchiness at spots where there have once been plastered with band aids or surgery bands... all over... itchy, i could not keep my hands off the places, except for the area around the c-section, no way am i going to 'disturb' the healing site...

Baby is now following better sleep schedule... ahahaha... better for the mother too that is... she used to sleep the whole morning, wakes up in the afternoon to have some 'lunch' then sleep again till late afternoon. After bath, she'll have her dinner and sleeps again until around 11 pm before getting up and play... till dawn... mommy has been following the routine for nearly 10 great days, and suddenly last night, she slept through the night to wake up at around 4 am to play... guess why??? she slept with mama for the first time last night... first time in the sense of sleeping beside mama on the same bed, instead of sleeping in her own cot...

Back to the outline of the body... goshhh... I've been eating a lot nowadays... baby's appetite is good too, so, mommy's body needs to support the requirement... is it an excuse? noooooo... it's not an excuse. I've tried to control but i felt faint and really hungry... so, keep the silhouette thing as dream for the moment... and reminisce about this again in 3-4 months time... hopefully :p

Our Shaima Irdina Binti Shaiful Ridzuan

A happy family... hope that there will be an increase in number again next year :D



I imagine that it would be a good feeling of having baby moves inside you, and another one or two or three or four or more, playing, laughing, babbling with you :D Godspeed...

Its 04/01/08... Not too late to wish you Happy New Year???

ermmm... Happy new year... next week, muslims will be celebrating new year too... on the 10th, AWAL MUHARRAM, MA'AL HIJRAH... and on the 11/01/2008, 2 Muharram 1429 Hijrah... I'd be having the 1st major operation... a c-section... ermmm... Happy New Year, Happy New Experience, Happy New Baby, Happy New Mother, Happy New Father, Happy New Grandmother, Happy New Grandfather, Happy New Uncle and Happy New Auntie...

Mama and babah will be coming on the 10th, 4.30pm flight... i should have bought the earlier flight but, like always, it's the short term memory loss... :p Sepu will be coming on the 9th, late flight though... so, maybe, we'd be waking up late the next morning... aedun and dedek are already here... whatever it is, i consider myself lucky to have everybody i love near on the day... one of the most important day of my life...

I'd be fasting starting 12 midnight 11/01/2008, and will need to go to the hospital before 7am... nervous, but really looking forward... Hopefully, everything will turn up fine... amin...

Baby is kicking right now, and moving... what is she doing in there? ermmm... I know that babies tend to sleep more towards the end of mom's pregnancy... my baby, she moves at night, when mama's preparing herself for a good night sleep... kiss baby, hug baby, love baby... muuuah :*
