oMG, that quite crazy list isn't it?
My husband absolutely gotta see this :)

here we go..

I promised to share some pics from Universal Studio, i guess i have to delay since i have a more important event to share here..

Retuning from Singapore, a week later precisely, i felt my head a bit dizzy, my stomach felt like bubling and my mouth taste like iron (seriously.. iron?).
Oh come on, this can't be a jet lag, i was only fly for one hour and a half! So i thought it was just a starnge influenza symptoms. The next week, the symptoms getting worse, felt like i was dying at the office. My friend said i might be pregnant - that's also what i thought, so i bought a test pack and found out the result was a lil strange: Two lines like a positive result, but one was a red line, and the other one was pink??

So, the next day i went to the doctor. She was the different doctor who handled me on my previous pregnancy. She made some test (blood, urine, and USG), and found nothing on the screen, but strangely she said, "Maam this is positive."

Since i didn't trust her (Sorry, doc..), i changed doctor - again.
Thank God this time i got the right doctor! He performed an USG test and found a 'bag' inside stomach (yes, i also saw it on the screen this time). So the result was i am positively pregnant! Alhamdulillaaaah..

The doctor explained, since i was having a misscariage before, i have to be more carefull this time. He told me not to eat junkfood, get on stairs more that 5 steps, lift some heavy stuffs (not even a handbag!), and not to wear any tight clothes. To be honest, all this stuff made me nervous and ... worry..

He also explained that my 'bag' still empty and we need to wait till another two weeks to see if the fetus will grow inside the bag. He said i also have to gain more progesterone to help the placenta grows rapidly. Therefore, he gave me some vitamins, and extra progestrn hormones.. Pills again..

My husband was there, next to me, listening to the doctor.
I knew he knew what i felt.
I hope everything is gonna be okay this time.
Bismillah..

Welcome Aisha!

Now i realize how 'old' i am. Another niece came to this world, last evening (the nurses said it was 6:30 pm something). In the next one to two years she will be running here and there calling me aunty (or 'bibi'? how about 'tante' yuuu... mari..), and i will look verrrrryyyy oollllddd!!

The fact that, I was overwhelmed!! Especially when i saw this little princess looks a lot like me! (Don't ask me: how come?) I'm telling you that she looks like me because of her exiguous similiarity to her parents! (especially the lips, and eyebrow, they're totally mine hehehe..)

Aisha is her name by the way, can't remember the complete name but i think Aisha is a cute one. There has been a local syndrome in Indonesia to name their baby based on what sinetron (tv serial) is booming at the time. (You named it: baby-Keysia, baby-Fitri, baby-Cinta, and the latest one: baby-Safa & Marwah) And i'm glad my sister doesn't follow the fashion.

I'm glad that my sister was giving birth without any surgery, it was a normal delivery. She said it was hurt, some pain you just can't imagine or ever feel. That's gross.. I better not to listen when she keep talking about the process, it scared me a lot.

Worst part: I was tooo excited and forgot to take pictures :(

Well, all i can say is congratulation, i wish all the best for Aisha and parents :)
