Hello, Second Trimester!

Hola! (Gaya Dora, please?). Maaf, terpengaruh dengan anak saya. Heehe. Lamanya tak mengemaskini blog. Alasan kali ini adalah kerana ada penyakit ‘M’. Heh.

Apa? Nak tahu pasal trip ke Turki? Tunggu ya, saya masih belum transfer gambar yang beratus-ratus keping tersebut. Nantilah, bagi saya sedikit ruang sebab sekarang masih bertungkus-lumus menyiapkan kerja yang menggunung itu. *hiba mode*

You have no idea (tiba-tiba tukar tulis Bahasa Inggeris. Haha), how much I want to share our good news with you tapi maaflah, masa tak mengizinkan selama ini. Inipun curi masa untuk menulis sementara menunggu klien tiba.

The good news (at least for us and our families. Ngee) is : Khayra will be a big sister soon. Alhamdulillah, I’m entering my second trimester now. Sangat berbeza pengalaman kali ini berbanding masa pregnant-kan Khayra dulu. When I said this to Hubby, he said : “Sebab dulu kita PJJ, Allah permudahkan urusan kita. Kali ini berat sikit supaya kita sabar to face it together.” Sort of macam ini jawapan Suami kepada saya. Hehe.

For this second pregnancy: saya mengalami keletihan yang melampau, nausea dan sangat sensitif terhadap bau-bauan, perut yang tak selesa dan kurang selera makan seawal kami tahu mengenainya pada minggu ke-5. We did the home pregnancy test as soon as my period was delayed for 3 days. Sewaktu period delayed hari pertama, saya siap countdown dengan Suami, punyalah excited. Haha.

Totally lain dengan waktu Khayra bila dulu saya langsung tiada masalah makan, not much of nausea dan tak seletih kali ini. Now, cravings jangan cakaplah, tapi bila perut tak selesa, selera turut tersekat. This time around, bila balik office saja memang tak selesa dan sangat letih. Buat satu kerja seperti lipat kain dah mengah. Setakat ini boleh kira berapa kali saya memasak kat rumah – masak telur dadar saja mungkin. Haha. So don’t ask me too much on Turkey’s trip sebab tak berdaya lagi nak buat entry (walaupun sepatutnya in second trimester dah OK sikit, kan?). Alhamdulillah sepanjang di Turki, saya diberikan kesihatan yang baik. Syukur sangat Suami, ibu bapa dan mertua yang banyak membantu dan menjaga Khayra.

Apa reaksi Khayra bila tahu dia bakal ada adik? Oh, begitu excited. Kalau saya letih, she said, “Ibu baring k?” When I cannot smell her poo-poo she said, “Ibu, tutup hidung k? Abah basuh.” Haha. Kalau saya cakap tak larat nak dukung dia, she will walk dan pegang tangan saya. Bila pergi scan, dia excited pegang gambar baby. Obviously bila tahu saya pregnant, Khayra agak clingy. She told her teacher, “Dalam perut Ibu Khayra ada baby.” Habis, satu school tahu. Meriah anak saya. Haha.

Gotta stop here sebab klien dalam perjalanan ke sini. Doakan saya dan adik baby sihat ya! Amin.

China Trip (December, 2011)

Sorry for the late update. Here’s a complete notes on our recent (d'uh its already March, 2012!) trip to China. If you personally ask me whether I want to come again to China (particularly Shenzhen), I would say NO. Teehee. But if you have never been to China, it’s a good experience to know about their culture, their foods, their places of interests etc. For those yang cerewet pasal makan while traveling, please bring your own comfort food (like serunding daging, sambal bilis, kicap etc). It is also a well-known place for shopping, as you could find almost everything under one roof in China, with a cheaper price if I may add. The key words are : you-must-bargain-when-purchasing!

Note : please bear in mind, imitation things are everywhere, tepuk dada, tanya selera. The weather in Guangzhou is generally lagi sejuk berbanding Shenzhen and Hong Kong. All in all, it was a nice experience in China. I may conclude, if you go anywhere with your beloveds you will feel great! That’s the key :)

Miracle of Air Zam-zam

K for Khayra

Khayra now reads her A-B-C via her alphabet play mats.
Khayra          : (Pointing at the alphabet play mats) K for Khayra, W for Wahida, H for Hazri, 
                       R for Rabbit, C for Cat, A for Apple, B for Bear.
                    : Ibu, Mimouse (Minnie Mouse)? (Showing her Minnie Mouse)
Me                : M for Minnie Mouse.
Khayra          : M! (Repeated after me while putting her Minnie Mouse on the letter M)
Hubby           : (Testing) Khayra, W for Hazri, kan?
Khayra          : Taklah, Abah. W for Ibu – Wahida.
Hubby           : No. W for Abah, Hazri.
Khayra          : Takkk. Ibuuuu, lah!
Hubby           : OKlahhhh. (Surrender)
Khayra          : (Smiling)

Her favourite songs in the car right now : Sifat-Sifat Allah (Khayra will ask for “Qidam-Baqa-Song”) and 10 Malaikat (she pronounces it as “Maikat”) by Raihan. Hubs bought it 2 weeks ago and she will ask for “Qidam-Baqa-Song” or sometimes she refers it as “Number 5” as the song is on Track #5 and “Maikat Song” bila naik kereta. Punyalah pasang hari-hari sampai ingat track nombor berapa lagu apa. Hihi. Khayra cuba menghafal sebenarnya. Doakan anak saya, ya? :D
