Maternity Cloths and Appointments
Week 26 Day 0
I am still using my old clothing. Haven't bought any maternity dresses yet coz my tummy didn't really grow as much as I expected.
Went to gynae RIPAS yesterday for another consultation.
Did the routine : heartbeat was fine, 150bpm and urine was normal, and that's it. LOL.
Next appointment will be on the 26th for my GTT (Glucose Tolerance Test).
Next ultrasound will be on 5th October.
Not much to say tho. We did few relocation of furniture in our room to give space for our baby. Will be buying more and more stuffs for BabyM this week!
Baby still kicks like mad. Hehe... It's ok sweetheart. We both love you till Jannah... Can't wait to see you! xoxo

Strong Kicks
My baby recently grows enough muscle and strong bones to actually buat mommy nangis kesakitan when she kicks. Lol... I exaggerate a lil bit. But her kicks are getting more and more kuat nowadays....
Love you BabyM, mommy and babah can't wait to see you... xoxo

VIABLE Pregnancy ! ^_~
Week 24 and Day 1
Weight gain throughout this pregnancy : 4kg :-(
It's been a while... and my pregnancy is now VIABLE !
What does a viable pregnancy means to us?
Say, Im gonna start an early labor *touch wood*, the baby will have a 50% chance of survival.
This is because, most of the organs and the lung have already been developed (lungs not perfectly developed tho). Still require NICU / SICU nurses to look after the baby for months so that the baby will grow normally and healthily. There will be some complications tho, mostly the developmental part of the kid.
I really wish I can keep this baby in my womb till it's due date.
Pregnancy is a blessing, but the side effects that came with it were not really pleasant.
Especially at nights. Huhu... Frequent visit to the toilet, uncomfy sleeping position, blocked nose, not being able to breath properly, heavy snore like nobody's business (luckily hubby never complained haha), headaches (this issue never resolved since day 1), occasional leg cramps, dogs barking in the middle of the night, bloody dreams (dreamt about ponti-bebeh once, huh!), ligament pain, the list goes on and on and on...
My eczema, is getting worse, I no longer use the cream the skin doctor gave me coz it doesnt do any good. Usually I will use TRIDERM to treat my eczema, but I am not sure if it is safe to be used during pregnancy...
And, those annoying red itchy spots in the middle of my chest, in between my boobs. Speaking about boobs, I am so so disappointed that they do not have any progress to grow big. They sore sometimes, but that's about it, I am still using the same old bra, no changes nothing. I so jelus bila tengok other women with huge boobs during their pregnancies. Mine is just the same old boobies. Pff!
My shoes are getting more and more fitter, I guess my feet are now swelling tho I can't really see any obvious lumps.
Oh ya...since yesterday I notice my urine will remain yellow no mater how much water I consumed. It is easy to get dehydrated during pregnancy. and being dehydrated during pregnant is NOT GOOD. It can cause early contractions, preterm labor, lack of amniotic fluid and the baby's legs and hands can be deformed. SCARY thought....
Recently, I feel like I wanna sleep the whole day. So I make time for my naps, luckily in my office ada sofa ehehehe...
Later will give updates about my ANATOMY SCAN result.
Feels so sleepy already, and time is now 12.28pm

First time bleeding (red blood)
20 weeks + 2 days
I experienced 1 time bleeding when I was 19weeks 6days pregnant.
Usually, I will only see whitish stringy mucus, creamish kind of lotion type, egg white cervical mucus + brownish + blackish snot (which the doctor said it was just old blood being flushed out).
So that night, when I wiped and saw the red color, I was....em..a little bit on panic,
coz I don't wanna lose this baby.... We've been this far already and I don't want to give up.
The red blood comes with the egg white cervical mucus with a brown tint as well.
and that was it. No more after that *fingers crossed*
The good thing is...............starting 20 weeks 1 day of pregnancy, I can already feel the baby's movements!!! Sometimes a few kicks ! Not strong enough to record it on camera yet. I am pretty sure those are baby kicks! Before this, I only felt some flickers, flutters, and bubbles. Now that it's getting more intense, oh Im so happy ! ^^ so so very happy ^^
Grow well baby...
Oh yea, for 3 consecutive days, I keep on losing weight.
Actually my weight fluctuates during this pregnancy.
I am now 5months pregnant and only gain around 1.9kg :(
Im a bit concern about this and will talk to my doctor again about this issue.
Last time she was not worried at all, looking at my BMI she does not expect to see huge increment.
I had diarrhea last week, but I managed to gain some weight but not for long...
Next ultrasound (anatomy yay !!) will be on 17th August 2015.
I can't wait to see you babyM...kisskiss!

Sleeping quality is now getting terrible
I rather sleep on my back, it feels so good and so natural and somehow it's the most comfortable position on earth to get a good night sleep.
However, according to Mr.Google, it is best to sleep on either sides, preferable on the left side cause baby can benefit a lot from it, such as good blood circulation, baby can receive good amount of nutrients, and the umbilical cord will function at its best.
Ive been sleeping on my left side for the past few weeks. It felt soooo terrible !!!! Sleeping is no longer a fun thing to do. I woke up at nights so often just to make sure I'm on my side, but only to wake up looking at the ceilings, most of the time.
The con of lying on my back will actually cut supplies of oxygen to my baby in the uterus. How true is that, I don't really know. But if lying on my side is so good for the baby how come at nights I have to be awake and finding my self lying on my back? Isn't that how my body tells me that lying on my left side might as well not good for the baby? I believe the body has it own natural way to notify our self that something is just not right and you have to move and re-position yourself so that you can be comfortable and can function normally.
Nowadays, when I wanted to go to sleep, I would grunt and force myself to lay down and pretend to be okay having to shift my body to either side. My hubby bought me a pregnancy pillow, still it does not really serve its whole purpose. Huhu...
Counting, I still have 21 terrible weeks to go before I can sleep peacefully. Not mati okay. LOL
I...want...to....still....sleep.....on.....my.....back.......coz....Im....a....back....sleeper

What we did differently this cycle that leads to our 5th Pregnancy
Additional Note:
I have a friend who ate EPO before she conceived. Her main reason was mainly to beautify her skin, alhamdulillah she got pregnant soon after that. So I wanted to give EPO a try !
I ate EPO, if I remember correctly, from cycle day 7 to 16 and I stopped. Because I heard that you should not be on EPO after ovulation. Right about the same cycle I started eating EPO, I got pregnant, and sticks till now, 20weeks+ ^_^ give it a try !

18 weeks 1 day PREGNANT
How are you in mommy's tummy?
Feeling comfy enough?
You sure did, coz we saw you stretched your legs straight 2days ago when we did another ultrasound at CY Lim Clinic. Hehe...
You also share the same habit with you Babah - head scratching. LOL...
You bounced, you moved, you waved, oh my....
Everytime we did ultrasound you seemed to notice and showed us your kind of performance and entertainment. Even the doctor said "macam2 gayanya baby ani" ahaha....
OHHHH and you sleep like mommy ! with one hand up near the face. How sweet...
You also seemed to know when the ultrasound session is about to finish, is when you started falling asleep...
My sweetheart, Mommy and Babah cannot wait to see you...
Please grow well...eat well...play well...sleep well...
Please know that you will get tons and tons of love when you arrive.
Later Mommy will drink lots of milk, so you can dance under the milk rain. Haha..
Love you baby...
Mommy and Babah are so blessed by your presence.
Fursisters wiki and mika are waiting for you too....They can't wait to look after you...
Be strong and be well...
xoxo

Moving on to the....... SECOND TRIMESTER !!!! ^_^ v
Week 15 Day 1
Yayy......today is my 32nd birthday, and my tummy is growing as well !
Sorry for the long absent.
Now I know that being pregnant, you dont feel like doing anything, at all.
Ive been a couch potato ever since I found out I was pregnant.
Sleeping like there's no tomorrow.
Being tired without doing any single chores.
Erm...the household chores are now handled by my loving husband. Hehe...
He does the laundry, cooking, cleaning, and all.
He's being really supportive, and I am so thankful that he is my husband.
Oh, he cooks better than I am. LOL.... So I am not worried about our meals during my confinement.
Last week, we went to Dr Ding Clinic to scan for gender.
However, my fatty tummy could not co-operate.
Tho his machine is really high-tech, but he can only give a 60% accuracy.
So we will need to return and do another scan on my 18th week.
I can't wait. Boy or girl, this is the most precious gift we've got from Allah...
Alhamdulillah... Mommy and Babah love you so much baby....
Some of the symptoms that I've got from the first trimester, have now slowly faded.
During my early pregnancy, the symptom that I hate the most will be FOOD AVERSIONS.
Who would have thought!!! I thought I would be craving lots and lots of food ! But it never happened !
I can't take in rice, chicken, beef, eggs, cooked and raw onions and garlics, used to eat fish but slowly I hated it, till now. I guess I missed out the huge list. Nevermind that.
Food that I am eating now, basically are made of flour, such as bread, pizza, pasta, and martabak.
I used to love HONEY GARLIC CHICKEN PIZZA, but from that, I can only consume the HONEY PIZZA, I took out the garlic and chicken. lol.. pathetic... oh well......
My first carbonated drink was 7up, drank it on week 10, I guess.
Now I only took a few sips of em. Coz it made my tummy upset.
Guess baby didn't like em.
Did a second NT scan, just to make sure, and the thickness is still below 1.3mm.
So baby is doing fine. Heartbeat is always strong. Baby moves a lot too.
Few times I felt the fluttering sensation. Im pretty sure it was not gas.
Tho I am pregnant, I am not in the mood for RAYA festivities, which is just around the corner.
I hate to hear the questions "when are you gonna have a baby?" "do you plan to have a normal delivery or c-sect?" "where do you work" "how much do you earn" "now that you are pregnant, can I touch your belly?" bla bla bla...... seriously, I dont wanna be questioned, NO questions pls..... Im tired of answering. Every year is always the same. Sigh.
My sister is law, who has married 1-2 years before us, is now still trying to conceive.
I do not want the people to feel sorry for her.
I just think that it is not fair for her to feel down during the festival.
I prayed to Allah to bless them with children.
I know how she feels.
So I am not in the mood to celebrate RAYA.
My dad recently had his stones removed. His prostate gland was swelling, so I am not sure what the doctor did to his gland. But now he's busy checking in and out the hospital.
After raya, it will be my mum's turn to also remove her pancreas stones. Doctor advised her to remove her whole pancreas, and I am totally against it !
My parents in law and my brother in law were also asked to do the same, but they objected.
They drank cranberry juice and the stones melted away.
So I bought my mum a cranberry juice this morning, hoping that it will save her pancreas, at least.
Oh...wow...what a long story. lol....
I guess, until now.... will post the ultrasound pictures pretty soon !

9 WEEKS 3 DAYS - STILL PREGNANT! :D
I guess the pregnancy thingy turned me into a couch potato, feeling so tired all the time!
Well...there are zillions of things to say but I do not know where to start because I feel so lazy and dizzy and lazy.
Today, my lil sprout is measuring at 9weeks 3days.
Last week we made a visit to Dr Ding clinic because hubby wanted to hear lil sprout's heartbeat.
I heard it already 2 days earlier at Early Pregnancy Unit at RIPAS. Unfortunately the doctor didnt allow my husband to hear the heartbeats, not until it has progressed to at least 12 weeks. So my husband was a bit disappointed and opted to go to a private clinic.
When baby was measuring 8weeks 4days, his or her heart was beating at 178 beats per minute. YES!
His or her. There's only ONE baby in there. Hehe.... It's OK !!! We are more than happy tho we expected to see twins.
Nevertheless, up to this date, I have not experienced any bleeding, ALHAMDULILLAH.
One time I had a brown discharge, not much to soak a panty pad.
Next appointment will be on 2nd June 2015 at HIGH RISK clinic (due to my previous 4 miscarriages, sigh!!!) to review my blood test.
Next ultrasound will be done on 15th June 2015, hubby has already booked his leave, he never wanted to miss out any ultrasound appointments. By that time, I will be around 11weeks 6days.
Ramadhan and Syawal, they are coming up...
Sent my kain to tailor shops already, and I am very nervous they are not able to cut to accommodate my growing belly.
Oh yea, since I am now under HIGH RISK clinic, doctor was expecting me to eat Aspirin one tablet a day, as well as to do daily injection with Fragmin. CRAZY. The idea to get myself injected EVERY MORNING was just HORRENDOUS. I am scared !!! Huhu, dont tell the doctor, I have never did any of these yet.
According to them, since I miscarried 4 times before, I need to do that to avoid blood clotting. But my previous blood test for coagulation was negative. Done on both 2012 and 2013. I have never had an issue with blood clotting. According to the doctor, TEST OR WITHOUT TEST I need to get down with Aspirin and Fragmin (the injection). Crazy. Next appointment, I will need to check for coagulation blood result, it it turned out negative again, I WILL NEVER EVER WANA DO FRAGMIN AND ASPIRIN.
From my research, continuous usage of ASPIRIN for a long term can cause my baby to become infertile if I am carrying a son. I love my lil sprout already and I am not gonna let them to go through infertility, coz I know how it feels to be hardly conceived. Ask those who have waited several years to conceive, they did not enjoy to go through this process. So NO! No ASPIRIN for me Doctor. Off they go to the trash!
To sustain pregnancy, I consume a lot of food that can naturally increase the production of Progesterone. At the same time, I will make sure I ate enough vitamins and minerals every day.
Wait...this rant has gone long. LOL. I was lazy to type a lot at first. So Im gonna stop at here.
This pregnancy gave me unbearable headaches.
I cried at times.
But as long as my lil sprout is healthy, I am all good.
I cant wait to see you baby....
We cant wait...
