39th week and labour augmentation

Heyyo heyyo.

I went for my antenatal visit @ 39weeks yesterday and BISHOP score was done ( BISHOP score is the method of how your gynaecologist predicting your labour progress especially in your late pregnancy). Oh, guess what. My gynaeologist smiled and said, "OPTIONALLY, you can admit tonight and deliver you babygirl by tomorrow afternoon..if you want..".Terkejut beruk mokcik.
My BISHOP score was very good..cervix softened and the fetal station (kedudukan baby) was so low already, Almost all of her head is already in my pelvis area! But there's no cervical dilatation yet :(

Make it short, everything is ready. I just need the dilatation and contraction. There you go, BISHOP SCORE.

I was consulted by my gynae regarding labour augmentation (some said it's as same as labour induction) but yeah i think there's a different, Somehow.Usually induction will be done @38th week of pregnancy if there's any indication that will cause mother and baby in danger (if they wait for the due date for the labour to happen). Hypertension, Diabetes, postdate, etc. But nowadays, maybe people choose to augment or induce the labour just to..?get the best date..?planning for the holidays? pftt..

The day when a mother admit to the hospital, the gynae will insert the cervical tablet (Prostin which contains the prostaglandin) that will soften the cervix and for dilatation to happen. Next thing, if the contraction doesnt happen or weak, they will put in the IV Pitocin to initiate or increase the contraction. And tarra, Baby's out. OR, you will end up with the Caesarian Section. Because of non-progressive labour induction. Yeah things happen. Jika DIA kata JADILAH, siapa kita untuk menghalangnya. Kan? :)

So, back to reality. Pikir punya pikir and after asking for the experts opinions, we think..there's no need to rush. Why..?
1) no indication, i'm well so far. alhamdulillah..
2) i have no contraction at all
3) we need to talk to baby first about this..does she ready to come out? :)))))
4) aku yang tak prepare mental lagi. Petang ni decide nk beranak, esok dah beranak. fuih.

Yeah, it's different feeling if the contractions come on its own. Not planned. Betul tak?
And also true, if im scared that the augmentation process does'nt go well and end up with c-sect...actually it can happen anyway if your contraction comes naturally and your natural labour doesnt progress well. You ended up in the OT as well. Same je. Semuanya terserah pada Allah. Plan lah macam mane terbali dunie pon.

So here i am. Blogging. Waiting for the contraction to come. Waiting for husband to come home and eat dinner togetha!
Cuti sudah bermula! Heyyo heyyo! pariappa pariappa.
Hopefully i can update my labour progress in my next entry. Amin amin!

Cheers.

The letter to our princess.

Assalamualaikum babygirl.
Hye, it's been 38weeks we've been together! Buat ape kat dalam tu sorang-sorang tu..? Tak sempit ke..? Nk pok amai2 pon mommy rase dah tak muat dah.. Kesian anak mommy daddy ni ye. Takpe..lepas ni..lepas dah keluar..kite pakat menggolek atas perot daddy ok? Mari kite golakkan jiwe daddy. Nak? Hehehe

So..anyway.. Bile our princess ni nak keluar jumpe mommy daddy..? (Bunyi jantung berdebar kenceengg). Cuak pulak gigirl. Eh, mommy. Takleh dah mommy nk fefeeling jadi gigirl. Pura2 cute macam sizuka. Oh maii. Bertukar status!

I just want you to know princess, this wonderful 9 months and yet counting is the best journey mommy and daddy ever have. You give us the best feeling and the sweetest moment ever! The way you make us nearly cry when the test strip shows POSITIVE sign (after few times of testing - with the same result), how we kept track on the babybump apps almost everyday of how you're progressing ( from the size of an appleseed until you become the size of a mini watermelon ngeeee), how mommy yang tak pernah nauseated and vomited tiba2 muntah sebaik sahaje bukak pintu kereta dan terus mc dan menjadi sayur the next day, how mommy suddenly had fever and bad cough that one night and daddy had to give mommy a massage smpi daddy nk terkerepot tahan ngantok (loveyou daddy). Oh oh, thankyou princess sbb tak buatkan mommy craving bende pelik cthnye mcm unta masak madu bersalut pasir buatan egypt mahupun mintak Audi a5. Kalau tak, sudah sudah tentu la mommy dicampak elok je ke dlm Lautan Hindi oleh daddy, bolehla alang2 tu mommy g join misi pencarian MH370 yg tak sudah2 tu. Oh, MH370 tu kapal terbang. Eh,  Nanti mommy cerita pasal MH370 ble baby da keluar ok? Bedtime story, hah amik. Advanced sangat.

Dear baby, mommy dah byk sgt dah denga cerite pasal contraction pain during labour..all those braxton hicks, plus plus this and that. And mommy can't wait to experience that. So does daddy. He can't wait go be my greatest labor partner. We can't wait to see you for the first time sayang, come faster!!! Grow well inside us precious princess. May you be the best khalifah Allah sent us.

We love you. So much.
Love, Mommy & Daddy.

35 weeks and counting.

Hello :)

Babybump apps says - 36 days left. Jeng jeng. How is it like to have severe labour contraction..?menggelupor kah? Menjerit2 haru kah? Ha..itu yg kite kene prepare fizikal mental rohani dan jasmani.

No doubt, sekarang pon mmg ade rase mild contraction..tapi sangat mild. Itu pun da tekejut sakang mokcik bile die datang. Mcm ala2 electric shock. Kalau tgh pegang pinggan mangkok ke, mahu melayang ke depan. But so far so good. I think it's normal. Baby's having smaller space to move it move it shake it shake it, so she tend to kick more (maybe she thinks that by doing that she'll get more spaces she wants..maybeeee). Takpe babyku sayang. Buat la ape2 yg patut. Mommy tahu, dlm tu takde channel astro untuk ditonton mahupun basikal utk dibuat ronda2.. You may proceed darling..woot woot..

Preparation.
Almost done. Except for baby stroller and car seat. We're waiting for the mom's and baby expo this coming saturday at the Mid Valley. Will grab one car seat maybe. Stroller.stroller.. MmYeah we need that too. Unless tangan daddy bakal patah riuk kalau yg nk keluarnye tu bajet dlm 3.5kg. But that can wait. We need the one that can hold baby up until 80kg. Wah? Baby ke raksasa tu?
Oh, oh.
Mommy's postnatal set. Checking on Tanamera postnatal set since few years back while enjoying full body spa with sarah (tak sangke aku akan mengandung..ngehngeh), the review's quite good plus plus they provide the traditional bengkung yg bertali2 macam pocong tu. Nk jd pocong jelite mcm mokcik? Whyy noott..? (Hair flippin')


Sleeping pattern? Naaaah. Harap maap nk tido lena mcm zaman remaja. Slept on my back - shortness of breath, on the right side - baby mengamok..sesak nafas kotnye, on my left side - bole tahan ok, tp bgn pagi rs pinggang mcm br lepas noreh getah seharian. Oh oh, smlm baby hafizku memberi back massage service terbaik dengan yu yeee cap limauuuu...torbaik tooq.. Tido smpi pagi. Rs mcm nk mc smbg tido. Eh. Terlebih sudah mak. Mmg syahdu bilamana menyedari diriku mempunyai seorang suami yang sangat memahami erti keperitan tubuh badan isteri semasa hamil.
Aww..im so touched..

"kenapa doktor salu suggest utk tido mengiring sebelah kiri..? Karena - pengaliran darah (bukan dadah ok) akan smooth aje..dari seluruh badan ke jantung, jantung ke badan, dari mommy ke baby..because.. Your liver located on your right side of your body. So kalau yu baring ke kanan, your uterus (aka rahim) menyempit ke arah liver tu dan your main vessel from your liver yang bawak all those oxygen tu tekepit la senang cite. Kalau tido ngiring ke kiri, kite menyahkepitkan saluran darah
tu (warning: ini adalah info medical, tp bukan ayat2 medical, so asal faham maksud sudah). So ibu bahagia, anak harmoni.."
Bgn pagi senang hati.

Ok. Susa jugak update blog while seeing patients.
Pending dari siang tadi, malam baru click publish.
Sekian saja kenangan hidup yang ingin dikongsi untuk kenangan diri sendiri. Hehe. Adios!

Cheers.

Coffee Hunting 1: COFFEE STAIN by JOSEPH

Hello caffeine addict! :) Suddenly feels like being a coffee-hunter! haha. Instead of being Starbucker all the time, what if we tried something freshly-brewed-in-front-of-you that can satisfy our coffee-buds? hahahah

Have you guys tried Coffee Stain by Joseph? WOW wa cakap lu.
Location : D4-G3-01, Solaris Dutamas, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

You can have an awesome aromatic cup of coffee on wonderful Sunday morning with only less than RM10! I tried a cup of Latte Macchiato and the strong aromatic taste of it made my taste buds wanna cry! hahaha.

Me and hubby reached there around 10am. At first there's only a couple of customers were there. But, after an hour..  TARRRA! I'm surprised! Their coffee must be really good huh? :)

Oh they also had variety kind of meals! French toast with banana, pancake platter, egg royals, etc etc... and its cutely arranged!

This is coffee cube! I wanted this! But i only realized its existance after my macchiato ;((((

Owning a HOUSE.

Why? :) You need a place to see your kids grow. You need to spend more precious time with your husband before your kids come into your life. Selagi ada :) Cook in your own kitchen, messing with your own cooking stuff. Nice kan? Seriously, you need to build your own life. In you own house. Decorating here. Painting there. Buying new furnitures. wee wee.
Wow ini baru intro. Hahaha.

The question is..How much did you need to spend just to start the journey of buying house? I used to think that buying a house is just about paying a DEPOSIT of 10% out of the total price and thats it. But NO baby. I don't know about the Sales & Purchase (S&P) legal fees and stamp duty, bank legal, etc etc.

Let's have a brief look of the amount that you need to have in your pocket before buying a house.
Say that your house price is RM100k.
Please be informed that this steps is for SUBSALE (buying a house from an existing owner, not a developer) :))))
First, check your bank account. He he.oppa oppa.

In Summary:-

1) Pay for your house deposit : 10% out of RM100k = RM10k (3% to agent on behalf of owner and 7% directly to owner)
2) S&P legal fees/stamp duty= 2-3% out of the house price ~ RM3k (depends on your house price)
3) Apply for the Bank Loan (you can choose either Conventional or Islamic)
    - there's no big difference between this 2 types of banking. You need to find and compare the bank  
      that offer the most reasonable BLR (Base lending rate)
    - For example : Current BLR              : 6.6% (Based on current year)
                             BLR offered by bank  : (- 2.4%)
                             Actual interest for your home loan : 6.6 - 2.4= 4.2% out of RM100k
4) There are few documents that you need to submit in order to apply for the loan. Once submitted, wait for your loan approval which take around 2 weeks time.
     - At the same time your S&P lawyer will proceed with your S&P agreement and will call you up
       for the signing of the documents.
     - Make sure to check the details (name, ic, property address) and the terms inside the S&P since it
       includes the penalty charges for late disbursement etc.
5) Loan approved & bank offer letter will be issued. Once it is executed the bank lawyer will prepare all the documents. For the legal fees you can either absorb the cost in the bank loan and pay monthly according to your loan tenure or you can pay the legal fees separately. Sign the bank agreement once its ready.
6) Upon signing the bank lawyer will liaise with your S&P lawyer to prepare other essential document (transfer of ownership, etc)
7) After that just wait for your bank to disburse the money to either the existing owner's bank or to the person himself (depends on the his loan balance)
8) Jeng jeng. Wait for the complete documents to be send to you and of course, the key!

P/S : I haven't receive the complete documents nor the key after 2 months! Hahahahahah!


OK. That's it for now. Hopefully it helps! hehe.

Cheers!
