helloww...

I'm out and about. Im sorry I didn't say much since last post...Mommy was so busy and occupied with other distractions ever since I was born. She completely forgot that I got a voice here too. But guess what? I'm back!!
And Alhamdulillah, I came out a girl.

Mommy was quite nervous to carry on with me talking here because I might be over exposed. But Mommy, listen to your heart. I am still beating inside there, with you. Didn't I promise you, that we are always one?

Stay tune. :)

announcing - baby mania! :)

a few glimpse of me... Voila! That is me.. *wink And yes, here I am in 3D

Dr Patrick asked Mommy to come see him again by 12 weeks. Oh yes, to note - Mommy has gained 3 kgs over the last 2 months! he he..Mommy has used me often to go eat her favourite stuff like tom yam at Basil, chapati at Tawakkal Hospital and of late - McDonalds! Well, Mommy still looks georgeous to me...so eat Mommy..yeah! :)

Surah Yusuf

Mommy was so sad today. She fought with Papa about planning for a room for me at the new house but Papa has no such plans. Papa had his mind for the two large rooms upstairs to be given to my two sisters. So where would I be sleeping and playing? Papa told Mommy I could stay in the master bedroom. Mommy thought it wasn't a good idea because I would be growing fast and would need a space of my own. My sisters are adults and they could share one room - plus one of my sis won't even be staying with us because she'll be working abroad. No point of putting up a place for her when she's not around. That was Mommy's argument. When Papa left, Mommy texted him stating adamantly that she wants a room for me. While driving to work today, Mommy cried to me on the way. She told me that she's frustrated with her circumstances, of juggling with needs and wants of everyone while her needs are being cast aside. I whispered to Mommy, I'll be strong for her. I'll be her light and her joy soon. Suddenly Mommy burst out to me - she wants me to be a boy. A boy in the family would be far more appreciated because she can visualise the power struggle if I'm born as a girl. There will be two battlecamps - Mommy's girl and Papa's girls. Then I told Mommy - read to me Surah Yusuf, tonight. Read to me Mommy....I'll ask God to make me into a boy. Insya Allah.

mommy..i heart you

Today Mommy saw Dr Patrick Chia of FMGC for the first time. Both Papa and Mommy was very curious of how I would look like in Mommy's womb, and when Dr Chia scanned Mommy - yes..there I was a little 1 cm..heart beating so fast Mommy laughed when she saw me. At first Mommy couldn't understood what was going on on the ultrasound scan screen..Dr keep pointing some white and black stuff citing jargons and Mommy told Dr Chia to explain further. Then I winked at mommy and she saw me - she finally saw me! Six weeks and a half and I'm growing fast. Dr Chia told Mommy to come two weeks later - by then I'll be officially 2 months old. Mommy, we should celebrate. Now let's see, what will I make Mommy eat now...*giggles...

hello..are you there?

Sometimes, Mommy isn't sure whether it's really me in her or she's just getting fat. The thing is, she's only 5 weeks pregnant but Mommy's tumms are sticking out as if I'm 4 months old! Geez...sorry Mommy, don't mean to make you look so bloated, but I need all that space to swim while my bones are growing. :)
I make Mommy eat the whole day. She's used to eating like a bird because Mommy wants to look slim and pretty, but now Mommy eats 5 times a day. To the point she's tired of being hungry. She sips on Milo and Roiboos tea all the time to keep from munching nonsense. I don't know why, but these days I crave for pasta and pizza so much.










The other day Mommy ordered Pizza for me - 2 large pizzas! And she has a penchance for Spicy Olio Pasta at DOME. Maybe I'm an Italian-wannabe baby - who knows? haha..all I know is that I love food. And I know that deep inside Mommy is actually enjoying herself - no more conscious eating. Well, of course, conscious about what kind of food, but yay! No more dieting. Also, Mommy gets irritated and sensitive easily these days. But with Papa, she's cool. Papa has been super at consoling her everytime she gets annoyed. Oh yeah, I've been observing Papa too - I think I want to look a bit like Papa. 70% Mommy and 30% Papa? How's that? LOL

I've arrived!

I will describe to you how my mom got to know the day I was in her womb.

She stopped her Clomid intake since January. And so this blog. I guess Mommy was tired of expecting - she figured it's best she concentrate on her pending workload and resume updates. Meanwhile, God had his plans. He told me to get ready, because He's going to send me to Mommy anytime soon.
Then, in February, Mommy had a spotting - some thick brown discharge that went on for about 3 days. Mommy was very puzzled because she just had her menses just 2 weeks ago and the next one wasn't due till end of 28 day-cycle. Still she wore her pads like normal and resumed her activities. Mommy just signed up for gym and was currently excited working out with her trainer. Little did she knew I was already there in her belly. I wasn't breathing yet, but I shook along while she was busy exercising. She was also under some stress at work - I saw Mommy downing Nescafe like crazy! I said, stop Mommy...guess she didn't hear me amidst her work and tension. Luckily she took plenty of supplements - Spirulina, Alpha Lipid milk and some HGH drink from GNC. I was already like this in Mommy:

Then came March 1st. Mommy's menses always due by then. It didn't appear and that clicked into Mommy's head. Maybe, just maybe, I've been around and she doesn't know it yet. Mommy was also struck with fever and was on her 2nd day of antibiotics. That night she bought a pregnancy test kit and woke up at 4.30 in the morning because she can't sleep thinking about me. Mommy tested herself and two lines came out. Yay! Positive - she woke Papa and broke the news. In his grogginess Papa hugged Mommy and told Mommy he's very sure that Mommy is pregnant. Mommy went to work that day with a mixed feeling. Meanwhile, I could not move yet. I was as little as a kidney bean but my heart is pumping slowly. Half calling my Mommy to tell her everything's going to be alright. Half way getting excited growing in her soft warm belly.

Sometime during lunch Mommy sneaked out at work to go to a clinic called Roshan. An elderly doctor greeted her and asked Mommy some history of her fertility treatment leading to the pregnancy test. Congratulations - the doctor wished Mommy. Mommy broke down when she saw the positive indicator. Her tears just won't stop, even the nurse handed her a few napkins to dry her face. Mommy came out of the clinic elated and called Papa immediately.

That day, Mommy quit her medicine and focus on her health. No more skipping meals, vigorous exercise or caffeine. You see, I'm here. It's two of us now - me and Mommy. Pray for us!

sharing is caring

Mommy had a good weekend. There's not much to tell, except that my parents are the luckiest in the world. They have each other, and they have their parents with them. Mommy went to visit Nani and Appa, Papa's parents. You see, they can be called Mommy's grannys coz they're so old, and yet they're so fit. Mommy keep telling them, you must live long enough to see my baby.. :) The other day I heard Appa says that if I arrive in this world, he can coach a football team coz he has 12 grandchildren in total. I don't know if he has enough energy to last to coach a football team by the time I'm around, but I'm happy to hear all of them are excited about my presence one day. Nani is a very quiet lady, but last night she hugged Mommy and caress Mommy's hair. She says; I pray for you everyday. I pray for a miracle. Before, Mommy had updated Nani on her condition and Nani was also quiet about it. Sometimes Mommy fears Nani would judge her, but Nani proved to be the most caring person. Mommy couldn't believe that another Mom like Nani could love her in the mother-daughter way, but she gave thanks to God and told me to remember that I have a most wonderful grandma.
So yeah, Mommy. I will always remember that.
