Bolehkah Minum Banyak Air Semasa Berpantang

Assalamualaikum and Hi,

Today's entry just wanna share info mengenai minum air semasa berpantang. From my personal experience,time saya pantang memang I do not have any problem untuk minum air dengan kadar yang mencukupi.My family memang galakkan untuk minum air.Seperti yang saya share info dalam entry "Pemakanan Semasa Berpantang", amalan pantang saya sebenarnya lebih kepada amalan pemakanan seimbang dan waktu makan yang betul. My confinement practice is just simple and easy..:)

Memang time pantang tu saya selalu rasa haus je,I cannot imagine orang yang limitkan minum air.Serious,memang haus sangat rasa especially for breastfeeding mom.Rasa haus ni actually is caused by Hormone Oxytocin yang dikeluarkan oleh tubuh badan kita.Oxytocin ini jugalah yang bertanggungjawab membuatkan contraction time nak bersalin.

My practice,memang saya akan sediakan satu botol air masak berdekatan saya.Senang,bila haus je boleh minum.Ada berapa myths berkaitan minum banyak air time pantang.One of the most popular myth orang cakap minum banyak air akan menyebabkan kembang and perut tak cantik.Tak sure apa yang kembang, maybe badan kembang.

Just want to share one story.After saya naik kerja selepas cuti bersalin.Ada terjumpa officemate from other department.Time lepas habis pantang tu, mmg my body belum susut sgt lg la.Quite chubby.Berat badan dah turun 10 kg after deliver tapi ada lagi 10 kg belum turun.Ramai yang tegur I look chubby..:).But never mind, jgn stress sgt.Biasa la, it took nine months time pregnant and develop apa yang patut, takkan dalam 2 months je badan dah boleh kembali kepada asal.So just rilex and take it easy.Lagi pun badan manusia ni berbeza-beza, ada yang badan cepat turun but ada yang lambat turun.

Actually saya tak pernah tau pun minum banyak air boleh sebabkan kembang and etc.Kebetulan after naik kerja daripada cuti bersalin tu.Ada la akak2 office yang tegur that I look chubby, tak sama mcm before pregnant.Diorang pegang2 my tummy.Hehe.Diorang tanya saya minum banyak air ke?.Then I answered ye, saya mmg minum banyak air (ikut keperluan), haus.Akak2 office pun bg tau.Mana boleh minum banyak air, sebab tu perut awak kembang.Hmmm.Betul ke??.

Saya pun tanya, then time akak pantang akak minum air banyak mane?.Akak tu bg tau yang dia just minum air only after makan.Means if she ate 3 times a day, so dia hanya akan minum 3 gelas air je dalam sehari.Wow!!..I'm so suprised!.Betul, terkejut dengar.Tak pernah tau ada orang amalkan benda2 mitos mcm tu.I'm not agreed of what they think.

For info, we need to drink enough water.Suitable with our body needs.Dicadangkan untuk meminum at least 8 gelas air sehari.

Macam mana kita nak tau badan kita cukup air??

The most simple thing, anda just perhatikan warna urine (air kencing) anda.If your urine warna kuning pekat, means anda tak cukup minum air, if your urine kuning cair or hampir tak berwarna, means badan anda mendapat air yang mencukupi.

Air juga berfungsi untuk flush all toxin from  your body.So its important untuk pastikan badan anda mendapat air yang secukupnya.If your body mmg tak cukup sangat air, it can cause dehydrate.Dehydrate ni boleh membahayakan.

Other than that, ada juga myth yang menyatakan minum banyak air boleh tambah production susu anda. Untuk info minum banyak air tak membuat susu kita banyak.Its just mitos. Menurut kajian, jika anda minum banyak air atau anda berasa sedikit haus, it won't affect your milk production.Pertambahan atau pengurangan penghasilan susu adalah disebabkan kekerapan menghisap.The more you feed your baby, the more you'll make milk.

Just simple tips.

If anda bosan asyik minum air kosong je, try perahkan lemon or limau kasturi or limau nipis sikit dalam air suam tu.Bagi ada variasi.No need to add sugar sebab air manis ni mengandungi kalori.

Anda juga boleh minum air buah-buahan atau sayur-sayuran segar.

So..Do not scare to drink water in your confinement period!!.Drink based on your body needs!.

Selamat Berpantang!..:)

Pemakanan Semasa Berpantang

Assalamualaikum and Hi!

Hari ni saya nak share sikit amalan pemakanan saya yang basic time confinement.

Sarapan Pagi (Breakfast):

1. Satu cawan susu + Telur (kuning sahaja) + Madu Asli
2. Secawan Milo

3. Roti 2 keping

Cara Penyediaan Susu:

Bancuh susu, kemudian kacau susu bersama telur sehingga sebati (Masukkan kuning telur sahaja), kemudian masukkan satu sudu makan madu.Kene ikut step,kalau tak nanti susu akan berketul.

Note: Susu boleh gunakan susu tepung atau susu kambing asli. If guna susu kambing asli,hanya perlu rendam dalam air panas sahaja,jika menggunakan susu tepung,perlu dibancuh bersama air.

Untuk madu asli pulak,saya menggunakan madu asli Yemen.

Saya suka minum susu + kuning telur and madu ni.Rasa macam lemak2.At first takut gak rasa tak sedap,but actually sedap.Hehe.Ni petua my aunty,untuk tambahkan tenaga and muka tak pucat.Mmg time confinement nampak my face tak pucat.I started drink this stuff as soon as doctor bernarkan makan after bersalin tu.Saya minum susu ni sehingga 40 hari pantang.

Just for sharing,time saya akikah my baby pada hari ketujuh,ada tetamu ingat saya dah bersalin for two months!.Senyum je la.Sebab orang tgk muka tak pucat.

For those yang mmg takde allergic telur,actually takde masalah pun nak makan telur time pantang,takde pun makan telur lambatkan luka sembuh.But for those yang mmg allergic dengan telur,you need to avoid telur.All depends on your body.Lain orang lain penerimaan their body.I just share my practice.

Makan Tengah Hari (Lunch):

1. Buah-Buahan. eg: Betik and orange sunkist.
2. Nasi satu pinggan (Tidak terlalu banyak and tidak terlalu sedikit - medium)

3. Ikan Goreng Asam / Pindang / Anything asalkan tak pedas sgt @ Ayam/Daging.
4. Sayur .Eg: Sayur sawi goreng, cabbage, bayam or any sayur.Tapi mesti ada hidangan sayur.Usually saya
    makan sawi.

Untuk sayur sawi, saya suka sawi as below pic (Pak Choi).

Untuk sayur,my mom just goreng menggunakan bawang putih and bawang merah hiris and ikan bilis.No sos tiram!..:)

Note: 
1. Makan buah-buahan first then baru makan nasik.
2.Ikan boleh ikan apa-apa asalkan jangan ikan yang ada berbisa.Ikan berbisa macam ikan sembilang (Menurut what my mom said). Ikan tenggiri, selar kuning besar, kembung semua boleh makan. Not a problem at all..:)

For info,menurut nurse yang datang and did checking on me, she suggest untuk makan sayur sawi sebab sayur sawi boleh speed up proses sembuhkan luka and also sunkist orange.

Betik pulak adalah untuk melwaskan pembuangan air besar.

Makan Malam (Dinner):

1. Sama macam makan tengah hari.Nasi, ikan/ayam/daging, sayur dan buah adalah perkara wajib.

For me, berpantang ni simple, anda tak perlu nak terlalu menyekat pemakananan anda. Just make sure kurangkan makanan berminyak in your food intake (Amalkan Pemakanan Yang Seimbang) untuk cepat sembuhkan luka bersalin.And in my family,berpantang or confinement ni means kita amalkan balance diet, cara pemakanan yang betul and waktu makan yang betul.

Like me,time berpantang,breakfast adalah pada pukul 8.00, lunch pada pukul 1.00 tengah hari and Dinner sebelum pukul 8.00 malam.And for food pulak,i'd prefer makan ikan berbanding ayam.Sebab ikan ni good source of protein and protein diperlukan untuk penghasilan susu anda.

Personal thinking,saya prefer ikan berbanding ayam sebab i try to provide good source of food to my baby.As we all know yang baby hanya mendapat zat daripada susu ibu (For those yang breastfeeding), so bila ibu byk makan ikan,baby pun akan sama mendapat zat from ikan tu..:)

Bila boring makan ikan pulak,saya lebih prefer makan daging.Selalunya time confinement,our family practice makan daging kambing,but saya jugak ada makan ayam,just a few times je.Majority saya makan ikan and daging kambing.

Air pulak..Saya minum macam biasa.Jangan takut minum banyak air kosong.Air adalah bagus untuk your body.Minumlah at least 8 gelas air sehari.I'll share info mengenai air di entry yang lain.

And for info,if ada yang inform minum air banyak kembang or etc,its only a myth!. Mitos semata-mata.Be relevant!.Our body is 70% adalah air and during deliver,banyak liquid yang hilang,so water will not give any harm to your body!.

Just enjoy your confinement moments!..:)

Cara Mudah Mendidik Anak

Assalamualaikum and Hi,

This entry i just wanna share skit info which i know untuk mendidik anak. Just simple info but i think it will give big impact in the future .Semua berpunca daripada kita as parents.The most simple thing that we can practice in our family is Always Tell The Truth and Don't Ever Promise to your child if you cannot fulfill it!.

I know,this look simple,but actually it hard to do it.Bukan senang nak always tell the truth tau,sebab kadang2 bila bergurau we tend to lie tanpa kita sedari. But no matter what,we have to do it!.Always try to tell the truth!.We have to working hard on it!.For the sake of our kids.Actually,before ni sometimes bila make a joke i tend to lie.Bukan lie apa pun,just main2 but then i will tell the truth.For example if my husband tanya now pukul berapa,i said pukul 12.00 malam,but actually baru je pukul 10.00 malam.Then i said tipu je..My husband is specky,so tak nampak la kalau tak pakai spec.Maybe it look simple,but tipu tetap tipu.Rite??.Sometimes,we didn't realize yang we are the one who encourage our kids to lie.We need to do screening on ourself first!.,before we put the blame 100% on our kids if they make mistake.

Before ni, i never taught yang walaupun kita tipu2 just untuk bergurau,tapi tipu tetap tipu.But than one day i heard lagu Yusof Islam.Tak ingat which song,but at the end of the song ada keluar slide show tertulis antara sunnah yang susah nak diikut something meaning like this "Nabi Muhammad pbuh always tell a truth even though its a joke" (Never tell a lie even though its a joke). By that time, timbul kesedaran what i have done before is wrong.Need to change!.Feel touching when reading that sentence.From that sentence mmg give me kesedaran yang our prophet ialah seorang yang tidak pernah bercakap bohong,but me..always make a joke with lying..Hope i can improve myself.

Just wanna share satu petikan berkaitan Nabi Muhammad saw mmg dikenali sebagai orang yang sentiasa bercakap benar.This info i read from book Title: Perjanjian Hudaibiyah, Author: Abdul Latip Talib, Publisher: PTS Litera Utama Sdn Bhd.

I focus at part yang menggambarkan Nabi Muhammad saw adalah seorang yang sentiasa bercakap benar.

Conversation antara kaum Bani Khuzaah (Bukan Islam) dengan Nabi Muhammad:

"Wahai Muhammad, aku tahu tuan orang yang sentiasa bercakap benar.Oleh itu,jawab pertanyaanku ini dengan jujur,"kata Budail.

Above sentence shown us yang orang bukan Islam pun mmg tau,iktiraf and percaya yang Nabi Muhammad adalah seorang yang sentiasa bercakap benar.

So,thing that my husband and me praktikkan ialah always remind one another.Sometimes we forget and buat lawak ada unsur2 tipu,so bila ingat je salah,terus tegur and try untuk tak buat.As i said before,it look simple,but hard to practice,but its not possible to do!.Kena sentiasa ingat meningati sebab manusia mmg always lupa.

Other than that,jangan sesekali berjanji dengan anak then kita tak dapat fulfill our promise.Anak akan kecewa.If we not sure,let say ada plan nak bawak anak jalan2,tapi tak sure sempat ke tak,jangan bg tau,sebab budak kecik ni,bila kita dah bg tau,they taught we promise to them,bila tak jadik pergi,anak akan frust.Its not good for your kids psychology and lama2 nanti akan timbul rasa tak percaya anak kat kita.That is the thing that we need to avoid!.

In my case,my daughter still with my mom at kampung.So everyday i will call my daughter.My mom always cakap at my daughter yang i want to bring my daughter jalan2,just nak tarik perhatian my daughter untuk datang kat handphone.But then i always inform my mom jangan cakap mcm tu,i didn't plan untuk bring my daughter jalan2 time i call.I need to educate my mom yang we cannot lie and promise anything with our kids no matter what.Jangan jadikan alasan untuk kita bercakap bohong.Always tell the truth.In my case,i always tell back at my daughter yang i don't have plan nak bawak jalan2.Although ada org fikir takpe,baby kecik lagi,bukan tau apa pun.But that's not my style.What is wrong will be wrong forever.It cannot be right.And for info,your baby hear everything what you said.Just baby ni mudah lupa,but if you always cakap ualang2 kali,they will remember!.

So here,i remind myself to do a lot of improvement for the sake of my family!.You cannot do it by yourself,need your partner to support you.

So let's try and work hard for the better!.I believe all parents want to give the best for their kids!.Anak adalah amanah Allah and khalifah di muka bumi Allah,and parents is the want who responsible untuk mencorakkan anak menjadi seorang Yahudi, Majusi or Nasrani.Deep meaning in that sentence!.

Before that, wanna share,lagu Yusof Islam tu good for your child,ada education in the song.Kids friendly..:)..You can watch his video at Youtube. I love all his songs!.

Barang Penting Untuk Menyambut Kelahiran Bayi

Assalamualaikum and Hi,

I believe ramai parents yang akan sediakan "checklist" untuk pastikan segala barang keperluan bagi menyambut kedatangan "new member" dalam family tidak ter"miss".Mmg bagus ada checklist ni.It will help us to be more organize and kurang pening nak carik barang2 untuk bakal baby.Bila we have bought the thing,just cancel je kat checklist tu.Bila ada tiba2 teringat ada barang yang belum beli,just add inside the checklist.Sebab manusia mmg mudah lupa,that's why we need something yang bertulis.To remind us!

But i notice majority parents tidak memasukkan one of the most important thing inside their checklist which is THERMOMETER.Other than keperluan basic,thermometer mmg sgt penting!.As for me,thermometer is one on the top of my checklist (priority).Time tu my husband and me mmg dah plan need to have thermometer kat rumah for our little baby.We use Digital Thermometer which we grab from Bonuslink Redeem.Time tu mmg my husband dah aim want to grab thermometer untuk redeem our Bonuslink point.

For those yang nak beli thermometer,i think ada jual at Watson or Guardian or any pharmacy.Try tanya promoter kat situ. No need to find thermometer yang terlalu expensive,just buy yang digital biasa punya. If i'm not mistaken, i pernah terjumpa at online store this thermometer just only RM 12.00 if not mistaken. Not expensive,but very useful!.My thermometer sama mcm yang nurse from gov hospital datang checking kat rumah tu.I saw their thermometer time they did checking on my daughter and me (Time Pantang).Nurse pun ada advise to have thermometer,easy to monitor baby temperature.I already have the thermometer that time,in advance..Hehe..:)

Thermometer mmg sangat berguna.Sebab kdg2 bila pegang badan baby mcm panas,tapi bila take the reading,its actually normal.One more TIPS,kalau nak tentukan badan baby panas or normal,pegang kat perut baby,bukan kat tangan or other parts.Perut is the best!.Kalau demam perut akan panas,if normal,normal la kte akan rasa.Tak sejuk sgt and tak terlalu panas.

In my case,mmg i usually use this thermometer ni.Time my baby baru lahir,mmg always akan monitor my baby body temperature.Bila balik kampung at my husband side pun always bring the thermometer,didn't miss!.Easy to monitor sebab i have device to take my baby temperature.Time my baby demam pun i  always monitor my baby temparature ni.Usually i will take the reading 3 kali dalam sehari pagi after bangun tidur,tengah hari, and also sebelum tidur,sometimes more than 3 kali,depends on situations.

How to take the reading??

Ada a few method actually to take the reading yang boleh bg bacaan accurate which are kat bawah ketiak, bawah lidah and also kat telinga.Tapi yang ambik suhu kat telinga ni,it will need special thermometer.This thermometer mmg expensive and it will give the best reading. But for me,if beli digital thermometer yang biasa pun dah cukup bagus.Reading dia pun mmg quite accurate.

I usually take reading under my baby's armpit (bawah ketiak).Paling senang.Nurse pun mmg ambik reading kat bawah ketiak.But ada cara yang betul untuk ambik bacaan suhu badan baby ni.

This are the methods:

1. Bukakan baju baby anda,biarkan a few second of a minute untuk turunkan suhu baby kepada keadaan normal, and then take the reading.Jangan baru bukak baju terus ambik reading,sebab tak accurate nanti.for small baby yang msih inside swaddle.Bukak dulu swaddle baby anda,biarkan a few second or minute,then baru ambik bacaan.

If baby baru lepas mandi,tungu kejap,sebab lepas mandi ni suhu akan rendah skit,so give time untuk pastikan suhu baby dalam keadaan normal.If not,you will get wrong reading,maybe if demam,time after mandi terus take reading,nanti suhu jadik normal.So beware!.Pastikan tunggu kejap.

Note: Take reading with Celcius (C) unit not Fahrenheit (F),sebab Malaysia use S.I. units. 

2.Letak thermometer bawah ketiak baby and kepitkan sikit tgn baby.Kalau time baru lahir mmg baby diam je,but if dah 5,6 months onward,you need to kepitkan tangan your baby kuat skit

3.Wait until thermometer tu bunyik "tit tit".Kejap je,dalam a few seconds da bunyik da thermometer tu.

4.After dah ambik suhu tu,simpanlah semula thermometer tu kat tempat yang betul.Boleh pakai lama tau thermometer ni.Very useful!.

So..so easy to use!..So parents,please include thermometer inside your checklist!.Sangat berguna!. Especially time your baby demam or kdg2 mom ni ada instict tau rasa mcm baby dia demam,after da check kat perut baby,then double confirm with thermometer.So bila mmg baby deman,boleh bawak see the doctor.

Remember to add thermometer inside your list!.

Cara Elakkan "Breast" Kendur Selepas Bersalin

Assalamualaikum and Hi!!

Today's entry teringat simple tips my confinement lady bagi time I in confinement.Its actually very simple tips yang kadang2 simple tips ni la yg kita always terlupa nak buat.My confinement lady is from indonesia which I called ibu'.She's actually bukan la proper confinement lady yang take care of me and my baby until 40 days..Just enough tugas ibu' dtg at my mother's home untuk urut only for one week, massage lady la..Hehe..Tapi ibu' ni mmg suka mandikan my daughter.She will volunteer herself untuk mandikan my baby with no extra charge and charge for urut mmg sangat berpatutan.

At first after bersalin tu, mmg I did not wear bra.Ye la, breast sakit and quite big.Ada susu kan.After 4 days deliver, time tu breast da bengkak tapi susu keluar skit je.Da try picit2, pump and etc, tapi still kluar skit.

Sebab that time actually my mom ade tanya orang urut yg lain utk dtg urut before I deliver.But then time da deliver tu call2 dia, tak dapat.Nasib ibu' ada sebagai penyelamat.

So my mom call ibu' utk dtg urut.Usually time pantang ni mmg confinement lady akan urut your breast untuk lancarkan pengeluaran susu.By the time ibu' datang and urut my breast, YA ALLAH sakitnya rasa!!!.Baru tau actually sakit rupanya.Your breast will feel heavy and warm.Then after da urut and etc.I pun da siap and didn't wear bra.Hehe.

Then ibu' pun inform.Time breast ada susu, need to wear bra.Make sure bra tu dpt menampung our breast.Adjust bra tu ke atas.Bg "cup" dpt support our breast.But bahagian belakang, jgn too tight, just adjust ikut keselesaan.We need to wear bra untuk elakkan our breast kendur.Sebab ble breast berat, mmg akan ke bawah, and when time berat tu kte tak jaga, nanti after susu da takde pun, it will go down (kendur).

As for me, time deliver ni I'm not prepare any nursing bra tau.Ingat boleh pakai je bra biasa.But its too bad, my breast size much more bigger than previous, so tak muat nak pakai bra yang before bersalin.Its my mistake, sebab tak buat early preparation.

So da critical time mcm ni.Terpaksalah borrow my mom bra.But then I found out yg Fabulous Mom Nursing Bra ni bgs.My friend and my cousin told me.So I bought FM Kelly Nursing Bra untuk siang and Sara Sleep Bra for night.Baru tau its feel really different dgn bra biasa which I wear before.Selesa sgt!.Lembut je with fully cover and support your breast nicely!.Rasa selesa even though 24 hours pakai bra sebab Sara Sleep Bra ni mmg so soft and comfortable.Sebab belakang dia xda hook.

So for this entry tips.

1. REMEMBER to wear bra after deliver!
2. CHOOSE the right bra for you to wear!

Selamat Berpantang!..:)

Cara Mudah Bersalin

Assalamualaikum and Hi!

Dalam entry ni sy nak share info dan juga pengalaman sy sendiri semasa nak bersalin. Sy bersalin di Tey Maternity Specialist Muar. Mmg da plan kalau diizinkan Allah mmg nak bersalin di kampung. Senang untuk sy, husband dan juga family.Lagi pun bila anak pertama ni mmg takde pengalaman, jadi berada di kampung sy dan husband rasa lebih terjamin.

Ok, utk info, sy dah start rasa sakit2, since pagi pada 18 May 2012. Rasa mcm sakit nak period mcm tu. Sakit kat bahagian pinggang tapi xberapa heavy (mild contraction). Masa tu sebenarnya tak tau la tu contraction or just perasaan sendiri ke apa. Sebab ble rasa sakit2 tu sy masih boleh buat kerja mcm biasa. Boleh tlg my umi masak, and boleh jalan mcm biasa.Sakit tu pun kadang2 and tak kerap.

Sy ada inform my umi yg sy mcm ade rasa sakit2, tapi umi ckp Oohhh..lama lagi nak bersalin tu.So ok la. Sy just abaikan je la sakit2 tu, lg pun takde la kritikal sgt sakit, just rasa mcm nak period.Ye la, kte mana la ade experience so xtau mcm mana sebenarnya rasa sakit nak bersalin tu.

Ok, dipendekkan cerita.Mmg betul yg pagi 18/5 tu adalah sakit contraction. Sebab pada malamnya baru rasa sakit sgt.Hehe..Mmg da tak tahan sakit. Bile mntak h7sband tolong monitor jam, nak tau selang berapa minit sakit tu datang..Makin lama makin cepat rasa sakit tu.So mmg dah sah la mmg ni sakit contraction, bukan sakit perut biasa.Yg da sakit sgt tu mmg da confirm   tu adalah contraction. Baru tau mmg contraction tu sakit sgt.Sebelum ni just dengar cite2 org je.Bila da merasa sendiri tu baru tau. Ooo..mcm ni rupenye contraction. At last ble da rasa sakit tu dtg setiap 5 minit, sy pun inform husband nak pergi klinik and trus siap2. Sy dapat rasakan kalau tak oergi klinik mmg malam tu tak dapat tido la gayanya.And takut bile malam sy tak cukup tido, esok bile p klinik tkt time nak bersalin tu letih and tak bertenaga.Kalau boleh mmg sy plan bersalin normal and tanpa vakum.

So dlm 12 mlm lepas my husband hbs tgk cerita kat tv..Hehe..Sempat lg tgk tv.Kami pun siap2 nak p klinik. Sebelum pergi klinik tu, sy request kat umi yg sy nak minum milo panas dan juga makan half boil egg (telur ayam kampung). Untuk pastikan sy ada tenaga time nak bersalin tu.Hope so..:).Time makan tu mmg da xtahan sgt sakit.Just kuatkan semangat utk mkn. Lepas mkn suma then kami pergi ke klinik.

5 minit je perjalanan da sampai klinik..Hehe..Tu yg ske bersalin kat Muar.Suma dekat and traffic mmg clear.Lg pun time tu da pukul 12 malam.Mmg clear la jalan.Ok, now ble da sampai je at Tey Maternity.Kami pun masuk laa, and sy terus dimasukkan ke labour room.Da siap2 salin baju and etc, then nurse check "Bukaan Rahim".Laaa..Baru bukak 2 cm, but sakitnya mcm rasa da nak beranak sgt.

Yg penting..apa yg sy nak share dalam entry ni ialah bagaimana sebenarnya cara untuk bersalin atau mmg bersalin ni takde cara pun??.Cintinue cite tadi, lepas nurse da check bukaan rahim, nurse pun call doctor and tanya sama ada doktor nak dtg atau doctor nak tgu bukaan rahim lebih besar baru nak dtg?.Dalam hati sy time ru, harap2 doktor dtg.Tak larat da nak menunggu dgn sakit and tak selesa..Alhamdulillah, nurse inform yg doktor nak dtg and tak lama lepas tu, doktor pun sampai. Bile doktor sampai je, doktor terus pecahkan air ketuban. So bukaan rahim daripada 2 cm tadi, terus buka kpd 4 dan 6 cm.

Sebelum doktor sampai, nurse suruh sy baring mengiring. Sy akan explain cara baring mengiring tu kat bawah. And untuk info, kalau doc pecahkan air ketuban,selalunya ia akan mempercepatkan bukaan rahim kite. Drpd pengalamanan sy, mmg lepas air ketuban pecah rahim buka dgn cepat kpd 4 and 6 cm tu.Tak sampai 5 minit.

So lepas doc dah pecahkan air ketuban, Doc pun keluar daripada labour room and nurse yang monitor condition sy. Kebetulan time sy tu ada sorang experience nurse yg monitor keadaan sy. Nurse tu sgt byk membantu sy, ajar cara bersalin, tlg cepatkan bukaan rahim and sapukan air selusuh kat sy. She's helping me a lot!.Thank you so much!. Jasa mu tidak dapat dibalas.

Cara yang nurse ajar untuk cepatkan BUKAAN RAHIM:

1. Baring mengiring sebelah kiri.

2. Kaki kiri lurus.

3. Kaki kanan bengkokkan sikit.

4. Bile time contraction dtg / time rasa sakit, Tarik punggung anda sekuat hati menggunakan tangan kanan and teran.

NOTE: Kalau tak sakit jgn tarik punggung, and teran.sebab nanti akan koyak your perineum (koyak kat private part anda).Ble byk koyak.Byk la jahitnya.Actually jahit tu yg sakit sgt lepas bersalin tu.

5. Just ulang steps di atas. Bile sakit tarik je punggung sekuat hati.

Lebih kurang mcm ni la position yg sy explain kat atas. Bg yg "right handed" anda perlu mengiring sebelah kiri and untuk "left handed", anda perlu mengiring sebelah kanan.Sebab ble kte mengiring sebelah kiri, tgn kanan yg akan tarik punggung kita and sebaliknya.Gunakan tgn yg anda master with it!.

Apa perlunya buat mcm ni??

Sebenarnya dgn "position" yg betul, ia akan memudahkan atau membantu anda bersalin dgn lebih cepat dan dgn koyakkan yg minimum. Insyaallah kalau betul caranya, sedikit sebanyak akan membantu mempercepatkan proses kelahiran anda. Kte usaha, Allah yang menentukan. Bykkan berselawat dan baca doa time sakit tu.

Tapi untuk pengetahuan, kite xboleh bersalin secara mengiring. Baring mengiring ni tujuannya adalah untuk cepatkan proses bukaan rahim.Untuk makluman, bukaan rahim yg membolehkan kite bersalin ialah 10 cm.So tadi, lepas anda dah buat steps di atas, once ble bukaan rahim da 9 cm nak ke 10 cm.Doc or nurse akan mntak anda pusing ke position normal.Rujuk gambar di bawah.Ni adalah position normal yg majority rakyat Malaysia bersalin.

Selain itu, sy ada terbaca info yg sebenarnya "position" yg bagus untuk bersalin ialah berdiri. Ni adalah bila anda berdiri, pusat graviti anda akan menjadi tinggi, jadik graviti akan membantu untuk menarik baby keluar ke bawah.So ibu-ibu hanya memerlukan sedikit effort untuk proses bersali  dan koyakkan jugak kecil atau maybe tak koyak.So jahitan akan kurang atau takde jahitan.

Tapi di Malaysia, biasanya kite praktis "position" biasa. Rujuk gambar di bawah. Sy kurang pasti sama ada patient boleh request kat doc untuk bersalin cara lain. Tapi dalam case sy, sy just bersalin dgn position biasa.Maybe next time boleh try request kat doc yg position berdiri pulak..Sape tahu..Hehehe..

Banyak berjalan juga membantu untuk mempercepatkan proses bersalin dengan cepatkan bukaan rahim.

Just Simple Tips untuk cepatkan PROSES BERSALIN dan kurangkan anda keletihan:

1. Tahan nafas and Teran.
2. Bila nak teran tu pegang peha.Pegang kuat and teran.
3. Pandang your perut time nak teran tu.Bila pandang perut,kita ada focus area and akan menyebabkan momentum teran tu lebih kuat.
4. Jangan stop lama sgt antara teran pertama, kedua atau ketiga. Lepas da teran sekali,then jika belum berjaya,cepat2 tahan nafas dan teran lagi.Sebab bile gap antara teranan tu sikit, teranan ni akan paksa anak anda untuk cepat keluar.

Insyaallah jika anda practice cara betul untuk bersalin.Anda boleh bersalin tanpa bantuan vacuum atau forcep. (Jika anda tiada masalah).Sebab kadang2 ada kes yang mmg tulang punggung sempit,so jika kes mcm tu, mungkin agak susah atau tak boleh bersalin secara normal. Sy tak berapa pasti.

Dalam kes sy,Alhamdulillah, sy bersalin secara normal tanpa vacuum atau forcep. Sy masuk labour room kira dalam pukul 12++ hampir pukul 1.00 pagi and 3.03 pagi sy bersalin. Alhamdulillah.Doa orang2 tersayang juga banyak membantu.

Bagi ibu-ibu mengandung terutamanya bagi first time mother. Selalu lah berbincang dgn doktor anda and inform doktor apa yg anda mahukan, cara bersalin yg bagaimana yg anda prefer. Jika anda aim untuk bersalin normal, bg tau doktor  dan pastikan anda selalu bertanya mengenai keadaan anda dan bayi anda. Jika mmg anda tak boleh bersalin normal, biasanya doktor anda akan inform awal.Antara kes biasa yg berlaku yg tidak membolehkan anda bersalin normal ialah bayi terbelit tali pusat dengan belitan ketat. Jika belitan hanya sekali belit dan longgar, InsyaAllah anda masih boleh bersalin normal. Semua keadaan ni doktor dah tau time check up lg dan doktor akan inform patient untuk pastikan mental patient da bersedia.

Dalam kes sy, my baby terbelit sekali belitan tali pusat dan longgar, so alhamdulillah sy boleh bersalin normal.


So for those yang menunggu masa untuk bersalin..Good Luck Guys!!..Kuatkan semangat dan always think positive!!.Aim untuk bersalin normal..:)..And usually sakit bersalin ni berbeza-beza, ada yang memang senang sgt deliver, and ada yang sedang and susah.Bergantung.Just try the Best!.

One simple tricks:
Always Think Positive!
Orang lain boleh buat, we also can do the same or much more better!

Imagine muka baby yg Cute tu!..:)

Baby Development - 11 Months Old

Assalamualaikum and Hi!

Continue with my baby story.She still cannot walk but dah boleh berdiri and try2 lepas tangan for a few seconds.

You all still remember I did bought "Stride and Ride Lion" by Fisher Price??..Now my daughter da laju da tolak lion tu.Dulu time memula beli, by that time my baby is 9 months old.Takut2 je tolak.Now da laju da tolak.Kalau I kejar my baby, lg laju dia tolak.Nak selamatkan diri.Hehe.

Its a nice toy and my baby love it!!.I also love that Ride and Stride Lion.Tak sia2 beli.Sebab until now my baby still tolak lion tu.Lg satu yg bagusnya this Lion.Dia takkan terbalik.Mcm mane your baby pegang and tolak Lion tu.It stable.Kan kdg kalau plastik tu too ringan.Ble baby tekan utk berdiri, plastik tu akan terbalik.Tak stable.You all pernah faced with this situation tak?.Tapi kalau Lion ni, mmg xpernah terbalik.

One more thing, Lion ni boleh 2 in 1.Boleh tolak and naik.And it also ada music.Ade 3 jenis music.Just push the lion nose and akan bunyi la that music.My daughter siap joget2 lg ble dgr music her lovely lion.Hehe.Sometimes she just susah payah nak tekan Lion Nose nak dgr music.Boleh use this lion until age of 3.Worth to buy!.

At 11 months old ni my baby mmg pantang dgr music.Always dancing.Hehe.Pastu bebel semakin panjang.Tatatata..She already boleh sebut abah since 10 months.But actually abah is her grandfather laa, not her dad.Sebab she always dgr my adik2 panggil abah.My baby pun ikut.She can also boleh sebut mama.She call my husband "Baba".

Merangkak mmg da laju sgt.Kejap2 hilang pegi melawat dapur la.Masuk bilik, bilik air.Suma tempat la yg boleh di main and di masuk, she will come to it!.She also can follow simple direction.Tepuk tangan mmg da laju since 8 months plus, baca doa and etc.

But...my baby still takde gigi!.Hehe.Ada my friend her baby 9 months da ada 8 batang gigi.One of my relative pulak baby dia umur 4 bulan da ada 2 batang gigi.But my baby until now 11 months takde sebatang pun gigi.Hehe.But never mind.I'm not worry at all.Biasa la, not baby is same.Ada yg cepat ada ayg lambat.As long as my baby sihat, normal development, active.Alhamdulillah.

Bab gigi tu takpe.Rasa cute sgt bile tgk baby ketawa just see their gum only.Just enjoy being takde gigi tapi cute!.Kalau da besar nanti takde gigi mmg nampak tak cantik.So jut let it be.InsyaAllah.nanti sampai time keluarla gigi my daughter tu.

How about you guys??.At what age your baby tumbuh gigi and da berapa batang?.For mom yg alami same thing with me.Do not worry, just enjoy the moments your baby without teeth.So cute!.The teeth will come out when its time..:).

Perlukah bedung or swaddle your baby?

Assalamualaikum and morning,

Is it necessary to swaddle your baby?..Actually swaddle atau bedung your baby tak semestinya perlu.Depends on the baby itself.Ada baby yg mmg tak ske langsung kne swaddle but some mmg so comfortable to be swaddle.Kalau tak bedung ada baby yg tak boleh tidur.

But in Malay culture, usually mmg after baby born je.org2 senior such as our mom, nenek and etc akan cepat2 bedung baby.Its just culture.Not compulsory to swaddle your baby.Just in early stage after baby born mmg most of babies ske kne bedung because the baby feel warm and konon2 baby ni ingat they still in their mom womb.Sebab inside our womb mmg feel warm . That's why ble baby lahir and terdedah kat udara diorang nangis.Sejuk...But after da kne bedung suma, baby will sleep..:)..Cute sgt tgk baby tido.

In malays ade mitos regarding berbedung ni.Some of mom yg bedung baby ketat2 and utk tempoh yg lama because scared their baby jalan "kengkang" nanti.They think swaddle ni boleh prevent their baby utk jalan "kengkang".Its just a myth.Swaddle bukan menentukan our baby jalan elok or not.Its just to give your baby feel like inside the womb, warm and can get your baby better sleep.

Like me.I just swaddle my baby for two weeks only.After that da tak swaddle lg.My baby pun tak ske kne bedung.Usually she will kick kain bedung tu.Habis terbukak kain bedung..I just fully swaddle by baby kalau kira betul2 only one week another one week swaddle kaki je.Because usually my baby akan usaha nak keluarkan her hand.Hehe.So at last after two weeks da tak swaddle lg.Just cover my baby dgn selimut only.

As for me,I mmg not prefer my baby to be swaddle.Sebab dulu time muda mudi..Hehe.Time before married..Long2 time ago.I terbaca one artikel at "Mingguan Wanita" yang the doctor tak berape galakkan baby to be swaddle because it will interfere with their development.Sebab ble kne swaddle, baby's movement will be limited.Sebab all those movement is control by brain.Makin byk baby moves, so makin byk they use their brain utk control their movements.Tu from artikel which I read dulu2.But my mom mula2 insists nak swaddle my baby.I told my mom just jgn swaddle ketat2.Kesian tgk baby.Tegak je da mcm kayu.

But then bile my mom tgk yg my daughter mmg tak berapa ske kne swaddle.We just bedung longgar2 and at last da tak bedung lg.My mom bukan ape.tkt bile xbedung, baby mcm terkejut-terkejut.Actually terkejut tu mmg normal.Ble baby mcm da 3 or 4 weeks, lg sensitif.Dgr bunyi pintu tutup kuat terkejut and sometimes menangis.Its actually baby tu sensitif dgn surrounding dia.Do not be too worried.Its just normal.My baby pun mcm tu.One of the way yg we all did is letak bantal besar skit utk kepung baby.Jgn letak bantal kecik and ringan because it can be dangerous for your baby.Tkt bantal tertutup muka baby.Its so serious.Can cause death.Sebab baby kecik2 mmg tak boleh nak alihkan bantal ble tertutup their face.So make sure letak bantal besar skit and a bit heavy.

Ok.because our topic today is about swaddle.I just wanna share yg swaddle skrg ade a lot of types!..and cute too!!..One of the modern swaddle is yg berzip.Tgk kemas je ble pakaikan baby with this swaddle.

This is how the swaddle look like.Cute and kemaskan??..This is my friend's baby.Baby baru je lahir a few days ago.Time pic ni ambik mmg baru deliver but dah balik rumah..:)..Price for this swaddle is RM40/pc.Have a lot of colours and patterns. Brand:Gugu Swaddle Pop.Gugu swaddle pop ni boleh pakai until baby 6 kg.

Other that zip swaddle ade gak swaddle yg mcm pelekat tau.Take a look below pictures.Nice and look comfortable for babies.

I'm prefer this type of swaddle yg gne pelekat.But maybe I'll grab also Gugu Pop Swaddle.Both nampak cute and kemas.

But for me, If I swaddle my baby pun maybe until 2 weeks old.I do not like to swaddle sgt my baby.For my daughter, I just swaddle using bedung biasa je.But not the plain one tapi ade corak2.Cute but always terbukak esp ble baby kicking.My baby mmg active kick.Mmg swaddle tu just kemas kejap je then da hbs terbuka.

Ape2 pun, swaddle ni depends on mom la nk swaddle their baby for how long.Its actually we are the one yg corakkan our baby mcm mane.But I believe semua mom want to give the best for their babies.So good luck mom!!..And do a lot of readings.

Ikan Salmon For Babies

Assalamualaikum and Morning,

Just short entry for today..At last......I did find fresh salmon fish for my baby..Excited sangat!!..Sebab memang dah lama tercarik-carik salmon for my daughter.

Time jalan2 tgk2 ikan, then I saw "Fresh Salmon"..Happy!!!..Da lama nk carik salmon for my daughter.Ble nampak je salmon tu, cepat2 tgk price..Hehe..Boleh tahan mahal..If not mistaken sekilo dlm RM42++..But dont worry.Usually ikan2 mahal, diorang ada jual yg potong2 means ade jual yg slice punya.At first I tried ambik sekeping dulu.Then timbang, tgk price xmahal sgt.Baru RM 4++, then ambik lg sekeping yg kecik baru RM2.51.So total utk 2 keping just RM 7 la senang cite.Murah lg.

This is the salmon fish I bought for my daughter.

Tgk tu..isi salmon tu orange colour.Geram sgt tgk!!..I just bought 2 slice first,beli sikit-sikit sebab nak always get the fresh one.

As for my daughter..She love the salmon..:)..For info, salmon is very good source of Omega 3 which needed for your babies brain development.Selain salmon, fresh sardine also fish which contains kandungan Omega 3 yang tinggi.

This Omega 3 is also good for eyes and our body cannot generate Omega 3 . That's why we need to consume from other food.

So..Let's try to feed the best food to your child!!!.
