Alrightttt... I'm done with my list!! ;D

Hmm...

Lets discuss a bit about the list, shall we?? :)

Well, as advised by one of the Midwives during the Antenatal Class (which I attended on 14th June 2009 @ An-Nur Bangi)... It's best if you don't use disposable panties as it's not good for your tootttt... So instead, please use cotton panties ya? Eventhough a bit leceh sebab maybe nak kena tukar banyak kali, but it's the best choice!! Sebab elok for your tootttt and very comfortable too! :) Itu lah apa yang di advise by the Midwives during the class... And I agreed with them!!! Memang betul pun kan... Disposable panties nih kan cam ada "something" (chemical or whatever!?) so tak elok sangat kalau kita pakai... Hmmm. Anyhow, it's up to the individual lah kan! I'm just sharing the info jer... ;D

And then... Pasal baju tidur tuh! I tak bawak any sebab based on some comments I received in one of my previous post, I rasa betul gak yang usually the Hospital will provide the "baju" kan? So rasanya tak payah lah kot I bawak baju tidur sendiri... Hehe!

Pasal Milk Bottles and Breast Pump plak, I reallyyy hope I can breastfeed my Baby straight after the delivery! Tapi kalau susu still susah or slow nak keluar, I'll get my Husband to rush back home & bring the items for me! I nakkk gak try to breastfeed instead of buying Formulas! So I hope the Breast Pump will help me to stimulate my milk... Insya Allah! Tapi tu lah... Malas nak letak siap2 dalam my Hospital Bag! Rasa cam memberatkan jer... Hihihi! :P

Hmmm...

So what else ekk?

Ohh! Anyone knows how to use the Akar Fatimah!?? I got it from my friend, Yat@Nurul (yang baru balik Umrah) tapi I'm not so sure how to use it... Ader lah jugak baca here & there about bila nak guna, tapi cam tak berapa confident nak ikot! Sebab some people cakap camni, some people cakap lain plak... So how ekk?? Any opinions!? :)

Alright!

So as usual, if ada any opinions or suggestions lagi... Sila share and inform me okeh!! I really appreciate all comments and opinions by you guys!! Honestly... :)

Ready to go!!! ;D

Done done done!!

Ohh... There's another Checklist actually!

Insya Allah I'll try to post it up soon before I go into Labor (which is anytime now! *still waiting*)... Heh! :P

Catch you later, everyone!! ;D

How now!?

Morning!!

First thing first... :)

Our Baby Jr.'s head dah engaged since last week (37 Weeks+) so it could be anytime now! :)

Not-So-Best-News

Last week I dah start rasa cramps kat ari2 and bawah2 nih... But the pain comes and goes! BUT!! Since Sunday's Subuh, the period-like pain macam makin kerap plak! I woke up quite early untuk pergi toilet... Pastu every hour for sure I'll make some toilet visits lagi! Perut asyik meragam whole day!! Andddd... Makan ker tak makan ker kan... Asyik nak poo poo jer okeh!! Plak tu, ciritttt!! Hishhh... Half of the day till afternoon, I kejap bangun... Kejap baring! Plan yang kononnya nak kemas and mop umah semua tak jadik! My Husband yang wat sorang2... Poor Big Babykuuu... Sorry sangat, Sayang!! Thank you sebab tolong kemaskan umah siap mop the whole hall! Huhuhu...

Anyway, I knew it (Read: Yesterday) was a just another false alarm!! Sebab yer lah... I pun tatau how the contractions are going to be like! I know what I felt was just minor or 1/10 of the real pain! Uhukkk... Tapi still rasa tak selesa and merisaukan!!! I seriously thought I was going into Labor semalam! My condition was worrying... Sakit okeh!! :( Tapi kan... Eventhough semalam tu baru minor nye sakit... I rasa, it's going to be SOON!!!! The Labor, I mean... Hmmm. Mungkin perasaan jer kot!?? Tapi ntah lah!

I keep on reminding myself...
"Every Pregnany is different! Different people, different experiences..."
Hmmm...


Excited-News

Tak sabar nak jumpa our Baby Jr.!!! ;D

Like I said, it could be anytime SOON! Look at the widget! Another 15 days to my due date! Weeeee... Husband & I sangat2 tak sabar okeh!! ;D

Again, Baby Jr.'s head dah engaged since last week! Mula2 I tak percaya sangat cakap Nurse kat KKSK tu (when I had my Check-Up on last Thursday) but when we had our final Scan (after almost 2 months tak gi Scan) and consultation with Dr. Leong at EPWS, it was confirmed!! Yayy... Baby Jr.'s head dah engaged tapi belum turun completely laa! You know, the 1st Stage of Labor kan will take time sket... I just hope that it's going to be soon!!! Kenapa?? Yer lah... Besides tak sabar nak jumpa si kecik kat dalam nih, I sangat lah tak larat nak bawak my body nih!! Seriouslyyy... I think I've maxed out my weights already! Tak larat nak gerak2 banyak dah... Every moves I make lately semua pun sakit and sengal... :(

Yesterday, Husband & I keluar umah around 14:25 to OU, and once arrived... We head straight to M&S semata-mata nak beli my Nursing Bras (NB)! Yeappp! Went there before tapi gatal ingatkan nak gi beli kat M&S lain, tup tup... The best choice of NB is at M&S OU!! Honestly lagi banyak selection than other M&S's boutiques!! Hmmm. Nih I cakap based on big big sizes lah okay... Kalau yours is Cup A, B, or C... Sila lah cari your NB kat tempat2 lain!! Kat M&S nih untuk larger assets memang sesuai sangatlah beli kat sini!! Recommended by me!! Hihihihi... :P

Ohh!

So the "cerita happy" bukan pasal I gi beli NB nih... But to conclude that after I bought the NB, my Hospital Bag is readyyy!!! Yayy... Sangat seronokkk! At last dah siap pun the Hospital Bag! Baby Jr.'s Hospital Bag pun I dah siapkan on Saturday! So kiranya double YAYYY lahhh! Hihihi... Excited sungguh!

Ohh nanti later today I'll blog about our Hospital Bags okeh... Including what are the Checklists for both bags! ;D

Okay laa...

Itu jer for now!

I pening lahhh tiba2... Nih pun still tak stable lagi my perut nih! I keep having cramps and I think "mild-contractions" have finally kicked in!!! So every moves I make sekarang memang a bit slow and berhati-hati... :(

Ohh before I go... I ada nak tanya nih!

My parents & Husband asked me to take an early leave from work! Meaning, at least 1 week earlier from my due date... Mula2 I tak brape agree tapi based on my condition yesterday... Seriously semalam rasa cam nak gi Hospital jer!! So I think I might be taking 1 week early leave lahh... I cannot imagine myself driving to work in my 39th Week!! :( Kalau kerja siang takpe, nih kerja petang till tengah2 malam... What if anything happens!?? My bump sekarang pun dah makin berat and makin rasa ke bawah jer nih... Asal bangun jer, cramp cramp cramp kat ari2 tuh!! Huhuhu! :(

Okay...

I'm going to lie down now! Rasa cramps lagi kat perut nih... Tak selesa and sakit!!! Nih pun tengah sure tak sure nak gi kerja ker tak today!! Seriously rasa tak larat...

So camne ekk?

What do you think... Should I take an early leave from work!?? :(

Nanti later I online lagi okeh!

Till then, please pray for our Baby Jr. to come out early than his due date!! I tak kisah dah... Nak keluar today ker esok pun tak kisah! Plus, hopefully I tak rasa sakit2 cam semalam while I'm alone at home (Read: Like now, I'm alone!!)... At least, ada my Husband or sesape around lahhh! Sedey nak tahan sakit sendiri... :(

P.S. My Papa just called... Insya Allah he'll send me to work today! Yayy... Tak payah drive! :P

Heartburn!!!

Hishhh... :(

All this while I dok laa tahan rasa burning² kat tekak nih!

I thought it's normal...
I thought it's because I just ate sweet food...
I thought it's because I baru lepas minum sweet drinks...

I thought this...
I thought that...

Tup tup!!

I tak tahan sangat dah nih... Lama dah rasa burning² sensation kat tekak nih tapi I selalu buat tatau and try to overcome it! And it worked!! Don't ask me how, I lupa dah apa I wat tapi memang rasa tu terus hilang laa...

Tup tup... Again, NOW the burning feeling in my throat datang balikkkk!!!

Camni kot my face bila rasa ala² burn kat tekak nih... Or lagi teruk kot? Iskk!! :(
(Picture Source: Google.com)


Arghhhh!!! Tak selesa okeh... Kekadang rasa sesak nafas jer!! :(

I terus teringat apa yang Amie tulis kat Blog dia sometime ago (tak ingat bila laa tapi) and so, I went out for a quick "BREAK" and called Amie up! Huhuhu...

After 2nd tries, she picked up her phone! Ohh thank God!! :)

Actually, I ada ingat dia sebut pasal "Gaviscon" dalam her entry tu tapi just to be sure, sebab tu I call you Babe... Hehehe! Sorry laa tetiba kacau you tengah relax² and rehat² kat umah... I tak tahan sangat so terus call you for confirmation!! Hihihi... Cam ala² call Doctor lah pulak kan!? Heh! Thanks, Babe for layan'ing my call! :P Haaa... I dah jumpa link to Amie's post tu! Click here! ;D

So yeah... I was right!!

The burning feeling yang I dok rasa all this while is actually what they called as "Heartburn"!!! Ohh my... Lambatnya I nak tau pasal nih... Selama nih I tahan jer kalau ada rasa burn² nih... Huhuhu! :(

(Picture Source: Google.com)

Lepas dah tanya itu ini kat Amie, I called my Husband straightaway! Tapi this time, he didn't asnwer... Ohh sure tengah meeting tuh! Haihh... Kalah AM or M okeh! Asyik meeting jer kerja... Hehehe! So I decided to text him jer lah...

Hmmm...

Rasa nak amik
half day jer hari nih! Tak tahan lah... I think this is the worst heartburn yang I pernah rasa... Rasa burnnnn sangat sangattt!! Cam panas jer tekak and sekat² nafas I! Hishh... Takot pun ada! Haha! Tatau apsal nak rasa takot tapi takot lahh... Resah jer bila rasa burn² nih! Sambil type nih pun dok rasa lagi tau... Puas dah I dok minum air banyak²!! Ya Allah... Tolong hilangkan rasa pedih and burn kat tekak nih pleaseee!! Isk iskk... :(

Tak sabarnya nak pukul 23:30!!!

Nak balik cepat²
and hopefully my Husband dah beli "Gaviscon" yang I pesan dalam text message yang panjang berjela I tulis tadi... Harap² dia balik awal and sempat singgah Jusco or any pharmacy to buy one for me!! Isk iskk...

I hope this helps!! :)

Or... Should I get this?? Hishh! Tak perlu kot... :P

Okay lah...

Itu jer
for now...

I'm back at my desk and mengadap this 2 monitors again!! *sigh*

Ohh by the way, kenapa ekk I selalu rasa my belly menyenget ke kiri jer slalu... I rasa that's Baby Jr.'s butt lah... Hahaha! Suka betul dia mengeras one side camtu and paling obvious the left-side of my belly yang paling keras and terbonjol... Alololooo... Baby tonggek kan butt kat Mummy ekk! Hihihi... Love you, Baby!! Ummuahhh... ;D

Later!!!

TIME TO HEAD OUT

The following illustrations from renowned medical illustrator Peg Gerrity show how a baby moves through the birth canal during a typical vaginal delivery.


READY

The baby is at term and the cervix is beginning to dilate.


SET

The mother's membranes rupture as the cervix continues to dilate.


GO

The baby's head is crowning, usually after a couple of hours of pushing.


WELCOME

The head has been delivered and the rest of the baby will soon follow.


Sila jangan "buat muka" geli or takot okeh... I PUN TAKOT GAK but sooner or later, we HAVE to go through this!! Just be prepared... :)

So ladies, what do think/feel!?

Malaysian Online Baby Stores

Yessss!!

Finallyyy I have the time to list this out! :P

Ladies & Gentlemen (again, ada ker lelaki baca my Blog nih? :P)...

This is the List of Online Baby Stores (in Malaysia) that I always spend my time on; browsing, searching, and flipping through their catalogues... Ohh my! Seronok okeh eventhough just "browser window shopping" jer! Hihi! :P

CHECK THIS OUT!!

Ehh jap!
When I say "Online Baby Stores", maksud saya... Nih list² online stores yang jual barang-barang keperluan Baby mostly dari hujung rambut sampai hujung kaki, including Baby's accessories, Baby's gears, Nursery, bla blabla bla... And even for the Mummy!! Nice eyy!? ;D Dengan lain kata... Maknanya, nih BUKAN list "Online Shopping Blogs" yang banyak jual baju² Baby jer tau! Nih list yang menyeluruh... And nih list online websites in Malaysia bukan yang abroad punya... Ada paham? :P

So here goes...

*
*

List of Malaysian Online Baby Stores
(Note: Click on the link NOT the logo in order to view the website!)

Ohh!

I found 1 shop in Kuching, Sarawak too... They provide "Online Shopping" for customers not only in Kuching, but also in Semenanjung Malaysia! Hmmm... But I personally think, this shop sangat sesuai for those living in Sarawak & Sabah... Yer lah! Kan Semenanjung Malaysia nih pun dah banyak kedai Baby kan? Heh. But tak salah nak cuba! Silakan.... ;D

By the way, this is the shop!! :)
Hehehe!

Kindly take note that I haven't tried all shops yet okeh... Just a few only! Hehehe!

I've been to myBBstore (banyak kali!), BabyJaya (banyak kali!), Twins Baby (few times!), The Baby Loft (just once so far!), and Mom's Little Ones (Okay, this one I lalu jer depan kedai dia and tak pernah masuk lagi... Kedai nih dekat sangat ngan our house in SK! :P) actual stores sahaja... The rest? I just browse through via Triple-W! ;D

So ladiesss...

Sila terjah website² yang tertera di atas yerr... Kalau tak membeli pun, tak salah "cuci mata" kan kannn? Hihihi! :P

Have fun shopping/browsing!! *wink*

*
*
*
*
*

P.S. Sebenarnya ada lagi website² yang I tak tulis kat sini. Tapi since my Firefox ala² corrupt bebaru nih, so I lost all the other links... Sorry laa yek? :) Ohh ya! One more thing... The list above is according to my personal preference! Meaning, my most fave one is myBBstore.com!! :P Err... Mind you, different people have different preference okeh! Tak semestinya I rasa website first tu paling best you all pun fikir yang sama... Hihihi! :P)

The Conversation... *Updated*

Hmmm.

Do you want to know what really happened that day!?

Okay, lets share this... :)

On last Friday, at around 11:30... I heard a loud continuous beeping 'honk' sound outside our house! And since I was asleep at that time, so haruslah terkejut sangat and woke up tergesa-gesa kan? Dalam hati I tau dah sape yang 'honk' kuat tu... It must be the POSTMAN!! Huhuhu...

"Hey Mr. Postman!! Any letters/packages for me?"... Hehehe. Okay, dah merepek! Back to my story... Hmph! :P

I quickly get up from our bed and peeked through the front window. Ahhaaa... Yesss! It's the Postman!! Heeee... I knew that I was expecting a package that day! Finally it has arrived... Yayy! ;D

But what happened NEXT??

In the kalut situation, I shouted loudly (from our bedroom) asking the Postman untuk tunggu saya keluar umah!

As I turned around from the window, takde angin takde ribut...

Tup tup...

I fell hard on my bum!!! :(


Yeap...

I tripped!! I slipped!!! :( :(

I don't know HOW and WHY I was so unstable and tiba² jer leh jatuh camtu... Imagine! Jatuh punggung dulu and kaki terangkat ke atas! Mak aiii... It happened within seconds! I tak sempat berfikir and cepat² bangun! Bila dah bangun tuh, I baru tersedar yang I'm Pregnant! Oh.. My... God!!! I cepat² check my tootttt takot² bleeding ke apa kan... Sib baik takde!! :(

Being me, I jenis tahan sakit sket kalau bab jatuh² nih... Tapi bab bersalin tuh wallahualam lah kan... For sure sakit punya!! Huhuhu. So bila jatuh tu, I cepat² bangun, check apa patut and siap ala kadar sebab takot Mr.Postman tu dah blah kan...

Pastu
I cepat² kuar umah, sign the package, said "Thanks" then masuk umah balik. Tapi at that moment kan, I memang tengah BLUR sangat²!! I rasa cam "Ehh... Apa jadik tadi ek? Did I just fall??"...

I masuk umah... Terus duduk kat sofa depan TV! I checked my baby bump... Rasa cam mengeras sket! Tapi I tak rasa sakit... Tapi Allah jer tau I rasa apa time tu! Dah laa sorang² jer kat umah... I cepat² gi toilet and pee! Just want to make sure there's no blood or whatsoever... Alhamdulillah takde! Tapi still tak puas hati... Risau okeh!!!

I called my Husband... Suara dah terketar-ketar dah time nih! He was in a meeting. Terkejut betul dia bila I said... "B, me jatuh...". Isk! He asked me what happened. I explained in a brief sebab takmo kacau dia tengah meeting kan. My Husband bebel apa yang patut... Heh. Then he said he'll call me back. Pastu I called my Mom plak. Kena bebel lagi sekali. Bla blabla bla bla blabla... Haihh! Iyerrr... Saya tau saya clumsy sket lately! Tapi seriously tatau what caused the fall tu... I rasa kaki I tiba² cramp, pastu terus tak stable and jatuh kebelakang terus! Rasanya sebab tu laa... Huhuhu. :(

Hmmm.

Lepas dah confirm everything is normal... Takde bleeding, takde rasa cam cramp kat perut ke apa... I baring balik atas katil! Tapi kejap baring, kejap bangun balik... Kejap baring, kejap bangun... Haihh! Hati still tak tenang... Dah laa Baby tak gerak²!! I urut my bump banyak kali... Panggil² nama Baby Jr. tapi dia senyap jer... Imagine my feeling at that time!! :( :(

Sampai I dah nangis² okeh... I cakap banyak kali kat Baby Jr. sambil usap² perut tu... I cakap... "A....., gerak lah Sayang! I'm sorry... Mummy didn't mean to do that. Please Baby... Please move... Gerak lah Sayang... Mummy sayang A..... Pleaseeee? Please gerak... Isk!". Banyak kali I panggil² dia... Tapi I happy sangat bila 1st time I panggil nama dia, dia kick!! Awww... Mummy's Boy!!! Bila rasa dia kick jer, makin kuat I nangis... Terharu sangatttt!! Sedey campur happy sebab dia response! Alhamdulillah... Anak Mummy okay!! Syukur....... :)

Ntah camne lepas tu, I terus tertido tak ingat dunia dah... Huhuhu.

So that's what happened last Friday!!

OMG... It was the scariest day of my life!! :(

Therefore, when I went into the office that evening... I cepat² tengok kot² Dr. Sukhil is available on YM and message him straightaway for advice!

As what you read in the previous post, lega betul I bila Dr. Sukhil cakap jangan risau and all. Alhamdulillah my Baby okay since I'm already 8 Months so my bump is quite tough now... Syukur... Ohh! Since the next day (Saturday bebaru nih) I ada Check-Up with Dr. Kham at An-Nur... So I did a thorough check on Baby Jr. just in case anything goes wrong kan? Alhamdulillah jugak Dr. Kham cakap our Baby okay... Dia sihat and active!! My uri placenta pun tak terkoyak or bleeding!! Pheww! Lega dengar... :)

Okay!

That's about it about my Friday...

Pasal my Check-Up last week (both at KKSK & An-Nur), I'll blog about it SOON! Ohh... And pasal the "package" or parcel that I received on Friday... Later I tunjuk okeh! :)

Stay tunedddd..... *wink*

Check-Up @ 29 Weeks

Err...

This is an overdue entry of last week sebenarnya!

Hohoho... I was quite malas to write about it so since today is UK Bank Holiday (again!) so I'm extra free now & I think its best to update about it today! *LOL* :P

Oh well...

Had my Check-Up at KKSK last Tuesday when I was 29 Weeks Pregnant...


Did the usual checks of my BP, HB, Weight, and Urine!

BP = Good & Normal... :)
HB = Good & Normal... :)
Urine = Clear! :P
Weight = I gained only 100 grams from last Month!! Err... Am I underweight?? Uh huh... Physically, definitely NOT! But based on last month's Check-Up, how come I'm not gaining much weights?? Is it a good or bad sign?? *blur*

Uhmm... What else eh?

Oh yeah!

Did a repeat MGTT Test that day!

So I had to puasa from 00:00 the night before up till I'm done with the Test! Bayangkan tak makan apa² from tengah malam till the next Morning (on Tuesday) up till around 11:00!? Aiyakkk... I asked the Nurse why do I have to repeat the MGTT Test again, and she answered that it's normal to have 2 Tests! So lepas amik darah (untuk MGTT Test tu), I have to drink the air gula plak!

Hish... Hate to drink that air gula!! Thank God I know the tips on how to drink it smoothly! Haha... What you need to do is, minum air gula tu cepat² and sekali banyak terus! But telan air gula tu sket² tau... Then repeat again! Minum air gula tu sekali banyak & kumpul dalam mulut pastu minum sket² but laju²... Confirm cepat giler you akan abis minum air tu! First time wat Test tu dulu, ada this one friendly Pregger yang ajar I... So I applied the "tips" during my repeat Test nih... And believe me, it worked!!! So sesape yang kene amik MGTT Test tu, you can try this "tips" okeh!! Hihihi... Good Luck!! ;D

Again, naper ek sampai kene repeat MGTT Test tu?? First time dulu resultnya was okay tapi nape kene amik Test tu lagi!?? Haihh... Err... Is it because I'm overweight?? Huwaaaaa... I became overweight ever since I'm Pregnant!! Huhuhu... Sabar Anita, sabarrr!! Remember, all for Baby Jr... All for Baby Jr... *breath in, breath out!* Hihihi! Over okeh... :P

Well, after the MGTT Test... As usual, it's time to "Check Perut"!! I love this session as this is the time where I can hear my little one's heartbeat... Awwww! Such a soothing sound... Hihihi!


Okay, once I'm done with the quick "Check Perut", then I've to wait till it's 11:00... Yer lah! I did the MGTT Test and drank the air gula at around 09:00... So I had to wait for the next 2 hours untuk amik darah lagi and then baru boley balik! Huhuhu!

So since it's quite early... Baru jer around 09:45 camtu, so I decided to confirm my next appointment with the Nurse at the Reception Counter, then headed straight to collect my medicine cum vitamins from the Pharmacy! Haihh... Nih part palinggg tak best!! You know what, the Check-Up at Government Clinic memang lah lama, leceh and macam² check... Tapi I tak kisah sebab I tau kat gomen nih dorang check lagi detailed dari kat private! So I memang tak merungut lah pasal Check-Up sume... The only thing yang I tak suka is the Pharmacy!!! Oh goshhh... I spend exactly 1 hour to get my vitamins!! Uh huh... Seriouslyyy... Vitamin nya sama jer dari first time I Check-Up kat gomen nih tapi nak sampai turn I untuk collect my vitamins nih laaa yang paling berzaman & berjanggut nak tunggu!! Urgh!!

Sib baik lah by the time I got my vitamins, it's already 10:50... So just nice untuk I jumpa the same Nurse balik untuk amik darah for the last time before I called it a day! Heh... So yeap! By 11:00, the Nurse took my blood again and I'm free to go home! Thank God!!! :)

Alright!

Itu lah alkisahnya my Check-Up at KKSK last Tuesday... Can't wait for tomorrow since I've another round of Check-Up at An-Nur pulak!

FYI, Husband & I will be on leave tomorrow... We can't wait to see our Baby Jr. on screen again!! Yer laa... Kat An-Nur, everytime Check-Up Dr. Kham will do an ultrasound on me... Kat KKSK bukan selalu Scan! Next Scan pun is tomorrow afternoon!

Yesss!

I'm going to have my Pregnancy Check-Up at An-Nur tomorrow morning, and right after Lunch Time, I've another Scan appointment at KKSK... Appointment kat KKSK nih memang dah lama pun Doctor situ setkan untuk I! Katanya nak check on my placenta uri... Oh myy! Hopefully my uri dah naik... Kalau tak naik pun, I hope it stays as a Type 1... Takmo naik jadik Type 2, Type 3 or Type 4!!! Kalau Type 4 dah memang confirm uri tu takkan naik! Nih bak kata Dr. Kham laa... Huhuhu! Wish me luck, people!! Thank you... :)

Okay lah...

Till I write again! Since today is UK Bank Holiday, so kitorang dapat balik awal sejam! So I'm going back at 23:00 today! Yayyy... Can't wait to see my Big Baby!! Hihihi! :P

Toodlesss!! :)

P.S. I'm turning 30 Weeks tomorrow!!! Ohh how time flies... ;D

Ohh!

Lupa nak cerita...

I had my 2nd dose of ATT jab that day! Last month takde plak Nurse tu cakap me kene amik 2nd dose tu hari tu... Tup tup memang kene amik! Aiyakkk... I was alone this time as Husband was not around to accompany me... So terpaksa lah toughen up and go through with the jab! Huhuhu...

So overall, my left shoulder kene jab ATT tu (2nd dose)... And both my arms plak kene inject untuk amik darah (during MGTT Test)... Dua2 side okeh... Kiri & kanan!! Wahhh... Satu badan lenguh hari tu! Pastu kat one of my jari kat tangan kanan plak kene cucuk amik darah untuk check HB... 4 tempat ala2 "berlubang" kene cucuk hari tu! Huhuhu...
