Contraception

Open for discussion...to all mothers...what say you on this? What would you prefer? Pills, IUD, or implan?

I will do some research and will write on my blog and will publish your comment here.

Don't Touch My Baby!

Giving birth to a preemies made me extra cautious on everything especially the hygienic part. My husband and i will ensure that our hands are properly washed before touching our baby, her feeding bottles as well as her milk. Besides, most of the thing must be very clean to avoid any infections on our baby.

During her first few months, i refused to let other peoples touching her to maintain the level of hygiene. No touching, no kissing etc. We only allow both grandmas visiting us touching her but not to kiss her. How cruel we were that time. But it is for her own good as she is highly infected. Until now, we keep the same practise which we won't simply let other peoples touching her especially peoples who had running nose, fever and cough (kesian Aunty Seri, 1st time jumpa Humaira takleh pegang dia...mujoq aunty paham)

Yesterday, we sent a frend of my niece to the Alor Star airport and later i drove the car to Tesco Mergong, Kedah. I love to do shopping there as the diaper is chepaer than in Perlis. So do the formula. While walking aisle by aisle, there was a lady staff there passed by us and she asked me how old my baby is and i told her 6 mths (lupa daaaa.........anakku sudah 7 bulan kemarin) and she suddenly trying to touch my baby's cheek. Immediately i told her, "do not touch my baby, please! you must be very hygiene to touch her!". Entah tangan dia dari mana2 nak mai pegang anak aku. She immediately walked off then. Mesti dia kata aku sombong. Tapi lantak pi la....janji anak aku sihat.

The other reason i refused to allow peoples touching her cheek is because she loves to put her fingers (more than 1 finger ya aunty2....) to her mouth and later all the saliva will running out from her mouth to her cheek and her chest....belemoih la anak daraku nan seorang inin.....so, if other peoples touch her cheek, i am afraid that the bacteria will infected her saliva and later to her mouth,her lung etc. Sungguh cengeng aku ini (meminjam ayat kak anne)

To mothers who are having infants, please be 'kedekut' to others. Don't simply let peoples touching or kissing your baby to avoid any unnecessary incident happend to your baby. Besides, if you or your family had running nose, fever or cough please use face mask while handling the baby. There was a case in NICU where a healthy baby girl was born and 1 month later 80% of her lung damaged due to infections of running nose & cough of her elder sibling as well as her father. She lives will a life support machine and i don't know what happened to her as when my baby was discharged, she is still on life support machine.

Anakku Dah Besar

My baby now is 6 months old. There's lot of development on her since her 1st day of life. She smiles, she speaks in her own words, she cries, she shouts, she moves left n right, moves her head upwards. She is also being able to sit with aided and wants to sit up straight no sandaq2. when i put her in the walker, she can move left and right and back but yet to move forward.As she reaches 6 months, she has another appointment with the paeds in Hospital Selayang for her development and progress. As we are staying with my mom at the moment, my husband and i decided that both me and my baby travel by air instead of by land which only takes 50 minutes to reach KL.

We landed in KLIA on tuesday afternoon at 12.00 noon. Merely 3 hours delay due to bad wheather. Papa was waiting since 9.00am at the airport and he hates waiting (masa dok deting dolu2 pon asik kena tembak ja mama nih sebab timing lari..hehehehe). Lil Humaira Safiyyah's check up at Hospital Selayang on the day after.

At the clinic she is weight and her heigth/length was noted. She is now 8.28kg and 61cm long. Dah besaq la anak mama nih. As most of her clothes are thight, we need to get new clothes for her and yesterday nite we went to do some shopping at the Reject Shop One Utama. I dont really go for local brand such as Anakku, Tollyjoy etc as the sizes are quite smaller than it should be and the material quality is not so good compared to the one from Reject Shop (bukan la reject sgt pon. Paling2 terlebih benang ka, just some minor error yg kita tak noticed) and the most important thing is cheaper than local brand.

Memandangkan anakku yang cepat membesar ini, teringin plak aku nak jait baju dia sendiri, her soft toys..bestnyaaaaaa.......harap2 impian menjadi kenyataan...

We are leaving this tuesday and Papa will be back for my bro's wedding end of the month and we will be back to KL for good. Lepas balik ni mama kena la bertungkus lumus packing barang untuk pindah. Adesssss...........pindah lagi...hopefully takyah pindah dah la pasni :D

Kabinet Baru

Saya ingin bercakap tentang kabinet baru....bukan kabinet dapoq yer tuan-tuan dan puan-puan tapi Barisan Menteri Kabinet yang baru selepas Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak menjadi Perdana Menteri Malaysia ke-6 awal bulan ini.

Menteri Perdagangan Dalam Negeri dan Hal Ehwal Pengguna -Datuk Shahrir Abdul Samad 8.Menteri Perumahan dan Kerajaan Tempatan, Datuk Ong Ka Chuan.

Agak sedikit janggal pada barisan menteri pada kali ini kerana Ketua Pemuda Umno, Khairy Jamaluddin tidak memegang mana-mana jawatan menteri kabinet kerana selalunya, ketua wanita dan pemuda akan diberi jawatan menteri penuh atau timbalan menteri. Kali ini 3 wakil daripada Wanita Umno memegang jawatan di dalam kabinet iaitu Datuk Shahrizat Jalil, Datuk Maznah Mazlan dan Noriah Kasno. Tahniah kepada ketiga-tiga wakil daripada sayap wanita Umno Malaysia. Kepada semua mentei baru yang dilantik, tahniah dan selamat menjalankan tanggungjawab yang diberikan dengan penuh dedikasi,amanah dan beretika.
