Maternity Toothpaste

First came across this product last year when browsing through a parenting magazine. When i was preggy with Wyson few years back, didnt aware market have this kind of toothpaste specially for pregnant woman.

`

So, for this pregnancy, was telling myself should get a tube to try and see whats the difference. But hor, i tried to find at Jusco, Carrefour, Giant and a few major shopping complex also cannot find. At the end, i give up and just use the normal toothpaste, Colgate to brush my teeth.

`

You all must be wondering, how come i can get it now?? Thanks to my sis-in-law, the one that just gave birth. I think she got it in one of the hamper. Since she's not using it in the near future, she was kind enough to let me have it.

So, whats the difference?? Hmmm, not much, only less foam but since it was free and good for preggy mummy, so just continue to use it. Hahaha

CONFIRMED

Today, went for my monthly check up. Thought it was Selangor State Holiday, so the crowd should be lesser since N.S is a working day. But i was wrong, the crowd as usual, super packed. So, just wait for my turn patiently with hubby and Wyson tagging along. This is the 1st time they follow me for my check up. Why? For the last few months, scared of the H1N1 virus, so hubby and Wyson will just wait in the car or go shopping at the nearby Tesco or Jusco.

`

When i was asked to lie down, so that my gynae can do an ultrascan for me, i still can jokes with him. This time can you please tell me is a GIRL ( still hoping for a miracle, hahaha). Hubby already so anxious stand beside the monitor. But Wyson was not so keen on it, dont want to look at all. The gynae then asked my hubby to look at the 'birdie'. It was so clear, and he can even give me a guarantee letter on that ( seh pao tan). I told him , no need so troublesome lah, actually i accepted the fact already.

`

Without me asking, he straight away print this 4-D image for me. He said the image was not so clear, but next month would be. So, here is my baby BOY... not a girl pun never mind lar, but hoping this time , will resemble me more, hope my gene not so lauyah(hehehe)... coz the gynae commented that Wyson 95% doesnt look like me.

`


Oh, forgot to update my weight , gained another 3kg in 1 month time ( geng ler), so now at 54 kg. But gynae said it was ok, coz i was way too thin.

`

And hor, for this pregnancy, i loves to jalan-jalan , no matter where, long or short distance also can. But what i loves most, is SHOPPING(ok, even before im pregnant, im also a shopping queen..kekeke). Hubby also salute me, with a not-so-big-belly, can walk non stop.

`

During the last Jusco Member's Day sales at Maluri, i only need 4 hours , i already can spend a whooping of this amount.

Hubby cannot imagine if i stay longer, maybe he will need to declare bankruptcy..... wahahaha.

Again???*sigh*

Today went for my monthly checkup, the most awaiting moment. Why? Gynae told me last month that he will tell me the sex of my baby on my this visit. Me, still stick with my 6th instinct, this one will be a girl, while hubby and Wyson keep on saying will be a boy.

`

When i lied down and wait for the ultrascan, gynae asked me what im hoping for. Still need to ask? My first one was a boy, of course im longing for a girl. He quickly moved his scanner around my stomach and arr.............. can you see that?? See what?? Here, here...so clearly can be seen , a little BIRDIE. No hiding and need no searching.

`

Tup, my heart sank. I was so dissapointed and upset till i cant said anything. After what i've been through this few months, a completely different pattern of morning sickness i have, i thought i was really carrying a baby girl. Sigh..............sigh...............

`

Just cant accept the fact that i will be joining TEAM BLUE again.... but i guess this will passed soon. And now, im on 1 week MC, too heartbroken....hahahahaha. Maybe during this week, i can calm down my emotion.

`

Oh, forgot to said, i have gained 3 more kg and now my weight is 50.8kg. Oh boy, he really knows how to eat now. Good , good , gynae also said you are growing healthtily and actively in Mummy's tummy.

My Prenatal Check-up

Since im preggy till now, i think i have visited my gynae more than 6 times. I didnt go there on monthly basis, just as when i feel needed. I only started to take my supplements ( multivitamins, calcium and vit-c) this week. Why? As u all know, im having a very bad morning sickness(till now still have), till force me to vomit out everything i take including folic acid. So my gynae advised me not take any till i feel better.

'

This was taken on my last visit (27/9). Baby was 12 weeks and i weighted 46.2 kg.

'

This was taken today(22/10). Baby is 16 weeks and was very healthy. When i was doing the 4-D ultra scan, baby was so busy moving hands and kicking legs. My weight - 47.8 kg. Increased 1.6 kg from last visit but still not gaining any weight if compared to my pre-pregnancy weight -48kg.

Gynae said i will be catching up slowly on the weight, so no need to worry much.

'
Eventhough i have passed the 1st trimester, but im still having morning sickness. Will vomit and feeling nausea, appetite still so-so..

Oooh, my gynae still playing hide and seek about baby gender. He said will tell me on my next visit...so , stay tuned...

Im Back...

So long didnt update my blog.... just dont have the mood to do so... I have been on MC for 2 months and now on unpaid leave. I have severe morning sickness that last until now... im totally not like my old self, im kind of missing the previous me.

`

From the day i know im pregnant, i cannot eat, drink or sleep well. I have been in and out from hospital for dripping coz dehydration. Im getting thinner and thinner, my life is miserable. I will throw up everything ( i mean everything) i put into my mouth ( liquid or solid). What i can eat only instant mee. Yup, every day i must have Maggi. I know its not healthy but thats the only thing that my stomach can accept.

`

Im totally useless now, i cant do any house chores. I only lied on the bed from day to nite. Poor hubby... he have to learn how to do all the house works, from operating the washing machine till vacuuming and mopping the floor. My hubby never do all this. So its kind of heart warming seeing him do all this.

Tired

With my headache still on and off, I just cant stand anymore. I feel tired and helpless. Wyson was the main contributor. He just driving me up the wall every minutes , every seconds. He can just think of anything that can make me pissed of.

`

With him around, dont said rest, even sleep also i cant have it peacefully. Im not sure whether he's trying to get my attention after he knows about the baby thing, but before this , he's still within my control. Now, he's just uncontrollable. Im just hoping he will passed this stage soon....

Medical Leave

Yup, today was on MC. When i try to wake up this morning, my head just too heavy. And my evil side already giving me the idea to just continue my sleep and dont think about my work. End up, i really sleep till 11:30 am.

Without much delay, I quickly prepared my breakfast cum lunch coz my Baby Jr was protesting inside my tummy. After the meal, then only feels better but the headache still there. So continue to sleep again... till hubby came back around 2:oopm, then only i take my shower and get changed. Im going to the clinic to get the medical leave chit, of course....

Soup

Today when im having lunch with my colleague, we choose mix rice, but to my dismay, i have no appetite to eat at all. I just preferred something soupy. Especially if it was piping hot and taste good, just like bak kut teh.

`

End up, in the evening, i already feel so hungry. So for tomorrow, i must ordered soup with rice for my lunch. But hey, just 1 meal for lunch also not cheap. Me always end up paying around RM12-RM14, for a double-boiling soup, rice and veges. As long as it was a nutritious meal, i dont mind to pay a bit extra.

Fruits

Before this, i seldom wanna eat fruits. Just dont feel like taking one. But now, i try to maintain a healthy and balanced diet , so i start eating fruits. Everyday i will choose different type of fruits. Like today , im having pear. Yesterday, banana, the day before , papaya. I was thinking maybe tomorrow i will eat apple...

Milk

So fast, today Baby Jr already 5 weeks old. Whats my early preparation towards this pregnancy? Of course, increase my protein intake. My back pain seems getting worst nowadays. I cant imagine when my belly getting bigger and bigger, whether i can support the weight or not?

`

I start taking milk every nite before i sleep. But not the usual Anmum's milk for pregnant lady, but Anlene concentrated milk, expert in bone nutrition. It got 4X calcium compared to regular fresh milk. And in the morning, i will take soya bean milk. Heard from the elderly, if u wish for a fair baby, then drink this will help. Dont know how true izzit, but no harm trying , right??

Boy or Girl?

Today, this topic came up. Ok, i knows its too early to said, but i really preferred a girl this time. Im always dreaming having one. But hubby said he's very confident this time, will be another baby boy.

`

Come on, we already have a boy, if we get a girl, then will be a perfect match. Only if i can decide...

Mood Swing

Ya, ya, ya... blame it all on the hormon changes in my body now that lead to my uncontrollable mood swing. This moment, i can become the nicest Mr Nice Guy, then another minute i can become a super siao char bor. Even simple little things also can trigger me.

`

So who's the victims?? Of course my dear hubby and my poor Wyson. Pity them, hubby still can understand my 'sudden changes' but for my boy, he just think his Mummy is getting crazier each day....hehehe

`

I just hope all this will go away soon.... and back to my normal self, happy-go-lucky...

Weight Gained

How i feel about it?? Of course great, but i dont expect to gain a total of 2 kg. Im only 4 weeks++ now. Before im pregnant, i always maintained at 47 kg, for almost 3 yrs. Now im weighted at 49 kg. Unbelievable ,right??

`

But to my surprise, this time my pregnancy quite different with my first. Or , izzit too early to compare?? I've a very good appetite , but must divided into small portion of meal. I dont have any dizziness or nausea. Only lazy-ness....hehehe

`

I hope for this pregnancy i wont develop any morning sickness.... praying hard for that...

My Journey Started

My period was late for 3 days. During this few days, a lot of things have come to my mind. Could i be pregnant ??? Nar, wont be that easy. To strike lottery more easier for me than getting pregnant.

`

Im very aware of my own health condition. When i wanna conceived for the 1st time, i have to pop up almost 30 pills each day. According to the sinseh ( chinese med practisioner) , my ovum doesnt know how to ovulate. Thats why i need the pills to send 'instruction' to my ovum to start working. After 6 months trying, at last, Wyson was conceived.

`

After Wyson was born, i did go back to the same sinseh again. She checks my pulse and said the same thing too. Without pills, the chances for me to get conceived almost 0% , but she did warned me about miracles. They do happened sometimes.

`

So for this 3 years, i didnt take any contraceptive pills or prevention method. I just practise 'do sex as and when u like it'. No worry at all and $$$ saving too....

`

Till today, when i wanna buy the pregnancy tester , i still said the same thing, wont be that easy for me to get pregnant. I keep on telling myself the same thing.

`

Here's the result of my 1st tester...

My first response when seeing the double line - Alamak, how could this happened..... I called hubby straight away and told him i strike first prize. He was puzzled coz he knows i dont buy numbers. I even give him some hint, i need to see doctor tonight, ' kau chut yan meng'... till here he still dont get it. My god, already so clear, still dont understand.... ' I think im pregnant' , i shouted to him. Silence for a while, then he said ' are you sure?'. Im not so sure and i dont want to be sure, but im sure i wanna go clinic tonigt to confirm my worry.

`

This is my 2nd tester result, from the clinic

The doctor said the line a bit fade but still considered as a positive pregnancy. Ok, fine, fine, i will take it. Eventhough hard to believe, leaving me & hubby wonders how did this happened.

On the way back, i suggested to hubby why dont we buy the digital tester, so that we dont have to be so unsure about the faded line. The digital tester will just show ' PREGNANT' or 'NOT PREGNANT'.

So, this is my 3rd tester result...

Now me & hubby have no more doubt about this. Its already clearly showed PREGNANT. So we have come to accept the truth. Im finally pregnant again. Eventhough we're not ready for this, as we dont expected to add another family member in the near future. But we still accept this gift from god, it was a miracle baby.

`

Baby Jr, Mummy have conceived you without taking any pills... so you must be great in winning this amazing race... keep up the good work, kiddo... u just need to stay in Mummy's tummy for another 9 months.
