Set Mengandung Shaklee




Have i ever told you guys about what supplement do i took during my pregnancy?
Some of you may know already.. and maybe lots of you dont know yet..

Ever since from my 1st pregnancy i took these supplement to ensure my body is fit & also most important by baby is growing healthily. Its your first baby right? for sure you want it to be prefect/ beautiful and most important to be healthy. Plus, you will never know what you will facing through out all the trimester..its a first experience right?
Well you just have to go for it and prepare for the worst.

So I took a few supplement from Shaklee which consist of :
1. B-complex : Really important as its contain acid folic and its crucial for baby development
2. Vita- Lea : A multi vitamin for mommies.. we need to ensure our body have all the needs right despite all the crappy food we've been craving during pregnancy.😂
3. Vita -C : Its my so call antibiotic. To ensure that i wont easily get sick specially fever.
4. Omega :I took this during 2nd & 3rd trimester only. This is for the eye, brain development of the baby. 
5. Ostematrix : Also know as calcium.. took this during night time before sleep. It helps a lot if you have constipation and also no leg cramp. Alhamdulillah, i never get any constipation and leg cramp during my pregnancy.. seriously, like all 3 of pregnancy. Its like my must have before sleep. Plus, its good to develop the baby bones and keep mommies bones strong.
6. ESP: Its a protein drink. I took this a lot during 3rd trimester.. i find out the baby born with a skin that very firm. How do i say it eh.. its like firm taufu.😂

There, some may say thats a lot of pills to take. But trust me, its Not that much when you know how and when to take it.

If you wish to know more.. do let know and im gonna share it personally.

Tuam or Tungku? Old School or Modern?


Mommy mandikan baby Fayyad this morning, lepas mandi tungkukan dia then terpikir.
Apa beza tungku modern dengan yang old school ?

Tungku Moden yang diguna pakai sekarang
Comel jer kan tungku moden ni. Biasanya tungku moden ni dipenuhi dengan herba-herba like lada hitam, halba, biji sawi, garam etc .. Bahan-bahan yang tahan & keep warm la gitu.  Nak guna kena pakai iron untuk panaskan dah tuam pada baby. Gitu la kegunaanya.

Tapi Mommy diajar oleh mamatok (my mom) dengan tungku old school. By using daun sirih & bara api. Mamatok ajar tungku cara ni masa Faiq Iman di lahirkan, so dah jadi macam kebiasaan dah. Dari Faiq ke Fathia.. dan sekarang ke Fayyad. All of them ditungku dengan cara ni.
My old skool tungku - Sirih & bara api.

Tuam kaki

This is how u hold the sirih & panaskan 

Muka Fayyad bila kena tuam & tickle by mommy..😍

Mommy dah cuba guna tungku moden ni.. ye la kan kena la ikut peredaran zaman. Dan plus orang cakap kemudahan dah ada.. takkan nak guna old skool & menyusahkan pulak kan?
Tapi...
Mommy rasa  tak puas bila guna tungku moden ni. Ada few reason yang mommy keep guna old skool style tungku ni.

1. Guna sirih ni.. mommy pegang sirih tu dah mommy sendiri boleh rasa tahap kepanasan daun sirih tu sendiri. Yes lepas daun dipanaskan kita akan letak balakang tangan sebelum tungku di baby supaya daun tidak terlalu panas. Tapi maksud mommy, bila dituam pada baby tu mommy boleh rasa sediri daun tu dah sejuk atau tidak.. Got what i mean?

2. Sentuhan Ibu dan Baby. The main reason yang mommy rasa sebab mommy prefer old skool style kot. Daun tu nipis jer kan, so bila daun sirih yang suam-suam di tuam di perut baby sambil mommy geletek-geletek and seeing the baby smile is priceless..

3. I dont prefer using iron. Sebabnya tak dapat nak rasa tahap kepanasan dengan tangan sendiri kot. And mommy ada tendency tuk lupa tutup suis kot..hahahahaa 
Bahaya yer specially when you have a toddler running/jumping around while you tungku the baby.

Soalan disini.. the correct word is tungku ke tuam? - Pikirkan la
😂

3rd Pregnancy - New Experience




Some people told me me third pregnancy always be different from the two previous.
Betul ke? I was told by my friends the third one will always unique in its own way (told by someone with more than 3 kids).Fikir balik ada betulnya kot.. sebab my experience pon memang lain dari pregnant sebelom ni.

Ive detected my pregnancy on the 8 weeks. Memula tu memang rasa macam takut, nervous semua ada. Fikir nak kena get thru all the pregnancy symptoms tu yang malas.. bab badan mengembang (wlpn memang dah kembang), sakit-sakit badan, nak melayan nafsu makan.. dah yang paling takut bila dah tahu confirm nak kena bedah (c-zer) nak kena bius kat tulang belakang!! ouchhhh

 Well my 1st trimesters when well like usual, alhamdulillah nothing new. Nak kata mengidam makan masam pon tidak.. makan benda manis tu ada la. Nak kata mabuk-mabuk pon tidak jugak..

Tapi semua tu berubah bile 2nd trimester, i crave for benda-benda manis. Even nak minum air kosong pon loya, my drinks kena ada flavour skittt baru la sedap nak minum. Dah yang peliknya, i lost appetite nak makan. Seriously, kalau tanyer  or fikir nak masak/ makan apa confirm tak tahu nak jawap macam mana. Kalau before this i always habiskan my homecook grill salmon, kali ni makan separuh sahaja. Makan benda lain which is my fav pon xboleh nak habiskan. Pfftttt.. Rugi uols! 

Dan dugaan paling teruk masa bulan ramadhan, bukan nak cakap xlarat nak puasa.. puasa penuh okay alhamdulillah. Dalam tak lalu nak sahur , alhamdulillah dapat puasa penuh jugak.. thank you to my daily pregnancy supplement that keep me energetic. But i was attacked by eczema, tak cukup dengan itu skin allergic pon datang sekali gus! Nak cuci ayam/ikan dan worst kalau nak kopek udang .. punyer la merenyammmm orang utara kata. Buat kerja pakai glove okay.

Dari jari naik ke tangan..dari tangan naik ke muka..dari muka turun ke kaki.
My skin become very dry and redness. Macam-macam lotion dah pakai to soothing my skin. Pergi jumpa doctor, bila tengok berbadan dua terus cakap pembawakan budak..wuuhaaaa. Bukan seorg jer doctor cakap macam tu.. i meet 3 doctors, semua cakap macam tu. Doctors nak provide ubat pon limited due to high steriods. Even ubat tahan gatal (piriton) pon i can not consume as it make it even worst - walaupun sebelom ni makan piriton tu xder masalah pon.
  Sedih tau, muka merah-merah.. mata pon tak boleh nak buka sangat sebab mengelupas-lupas.. macam mana nak raya? Nak make-up pon jangan harap la boleh huhuhu.

My hand masa memula kena gatal-gatal.
Perkenalkan mommy diumur 60 kot.hahahaha See those redness atas kelopak mata.
My skin was all dry and super sensitive, nak pakai sabun pon tak boleh pakai sabun biasa. Sabun mandi kena tukar tu brand QV/Cetaphil. Cuci muka pon seminggu sekali, itu pon pakai sabun QV je. Good thing is mommy jenis tidak bermake up.. so xperlu la nak proper clean.
Cream? Pon 2 jenis sahaja yang boleh dipakai.. QV cream untuk kawasan kulit kering dah untuk gatal-gatal guna Herba Blend by Shaklee. Memang lega gatal-gatal bila pakai herba blend.

Herba Blend memang sesuai untuk gatal-gatal.

QV bath oil yang digunakan..
Personally i prefer QV compare to Cetaphil. 

Dan dugaan yang tak pernah terfikir adalah kena demam panas yang berpanjangan just about 3 weeks before delivery. Demam yang pada mulanya ingat deman biasa sahaja mungkin sebab penat ke apa. Tetapi adalah sangat pelik la kan kalau demam yang mencecah 38-40degC.. makan ubat dia okay, cukup 6 jam dose ubat habis temperature pon naik balik. Bila dah melarat ke 2 hari, memang tak sedap hati la.. check dengan klinik biasa for denggi tapi result negative, tapi badan sangat lemah dah menggigil-gigil. So decided to go check dengan hospital. Doctor check on CTG for baby alhamdulillah semua normal. Tapi mungkin bila doctor check on temperature 39degC.. dengan muka yang merah-merah dah mengelupas terus dia suruh warded.

 Doctor amik darah bertiub-tiub to find our apa sebab demam panas sangat.. nak kata denggi, result negative. Nak kata SLE pon, alhamdulillah result negative jugak. I have low blood pressure- 49/68 okay dia punyer low. Memang record paling low sekali pernah tengok untuk diri sendiri.. tapi alhamdulillah takde la pening-pening/pitam. Nauzulillah. Memang dipantau rapi la oleh doctor & nurses. Bile mengigil tu, sampai biru la kuku. Selimut confirm la mintak extra. 4 hari 3 malam dapat percutian di hospital for viral fever. Baru la rasa bertapa bosannya duduk dihospital, selalu maximum pon 3 hari jer duduk hospital sebab bersalin. 

Fada.. ha ni memang muka bosan duduk hospital.
Tu muka dah pakai cream yer.. or else lagi menglupas.

Masa nak discharge doctor ask to take vitamin C to repair those skins and boost immune system. I said i took my own supplement Vita-C from shaklee  and doctor terus approved!
Hoyeahhh.. With no doubt.

This time punya pregnancy berat badan tak naik sangat pon. Asal naik jer.. dia hilang selera makan pastu turun. Naik balik kena demam, turun balik. 😑
Sampaikan last 2 check up doctor cakap baby mungkin tak sampai 3 kg bile lahir. Mommy macam cuak kejab sebab mommy prefer baby lahir lebih 3kg.. easy to handle specially bab nak mandikan. hahahah . Abang & kakak dia pon lahir 3.5kg. Lepas tu memang cuba balun la segala benda yang boleh dimakan..nak gain weight for the baby. Bila tak selera makan, minum ESP to keep me full.

And alhamdulillah, my son born on 4 Sept 2018 @ 8.10am with weight 3.45kg , and 53cm length.

Berpantang dengan Fazrina Postnatal Care


Did i mention that i expecting a third child?
Nope? Na-da? hahhaha sorry about that.. looks like i have been ignoring my blog again.=p
This 3rd pregnancy was so different from the previous 2.. i do have to blog up the story later.

So cut the story short, on the second trimester of my pregnancy i was looking for 'mak bidan' as i am planning to berpantang at my own home for the first time. Reason being is simple, because abg Iman has school & final year assesment which mommy dont want him to missed any class. Plus, he's better be in school rather than at home playing games, watching utube right? Got to work those sel-sel berhubung usefull.

Pencarian mak bidan aka confirment lady (CL) pon bermula di Instagram (hehehe now days no more google to find thing. Guna hashtag# sahaja and you will find lots of things.) So i got to know few of confinement services and start doing TBE (Technical Bid Evaluation) , and it is to my suprize this confinement services is really a good business and super expensive!! Seriously some package offer like RM 10k..fuhh kalah hire maid!

After kaji punya kaji..so ive made a booking with Fazrina Confinement Care.
Dealing with the owner, Pn Rina was so simple.. just clarified few things and then paid the booking fee. And then just wait for the day come...walaupon agak nervous sebab takut kena tipu kan.. just tawakal jer and pray for the best. So the day i went to the hospital lagi saya dah msg Pn Rina and inform her yg saya dah dihospital, i remind her and ask her to prepare the CL ready on the day i requested. Alhamdulillah, ive requested the CL to come the day after i discharged from hospital and Pn Rina manage to arranged it for me. If not, according to the terms for c-zer cases the CL will come 5-6 days after delivery. 

I took a full day package for 21 days.The package include all  the basic item with is berurut, tungku, sauna, mandian herba, lulur, pilis, masakkan menu berpantang.


Hari yang ditunggu-tunggu pon tiba.. menanti dengan penuh berdebar dan tak mandi pagi (sebab tahu ada mandi herba kan).  Nervous waiting because i was hopping to get a malay CL, tapi sedar diri jugak sebab kemungkinan besar jugak dapat indonesian. And yes, CL yang sampai is from Bandung, Indonesia named Tati. And to our suprise she speak English fluently kay.. 'Sir' aka Mr hubs terus la tanyer mana dia belajar english dgn penuh confident.. memang jarang nak jumpe indonesian who speaks. Rupanya she works in Hongkong (2yrs) then Singapore (2 yrs) baru la ke Msia... all works as bidan jugak since she used to study perbidanan dulu in Indonesia. So lega la skit dengar bile tahu dia experiences person.

Everyday kak Tati will reach my home around 9-9.30 am, sometimes awal and sometimes terlajak lewat.. semua tu bergantung pada trafic jugak. Sampai je she will prepare mandikan baby and also siap rebuskan mandian herba for mommy. Settle mandikan baby.. tungku & urut baby mommy la kena susukan baby and put him to sleep. Baby dah tidur la mommy mandi dengan aman.. time to time CL akan lulur or sauna, bergantung. Semua tu boleh dibawa berbincang dgn CL.. like my case for c-zer, sauna is recomended after 2 weeks. Luckly i've booked for 3 weeks sempat la gak nak merasa sauna bagai.. i missed my proper confinement on previous 2, just pantang makan jer.

Then kak Tati will prepare mommy meals for lunch.. basuhkan baju baby.. also do some basic  house keeping. Alhamdulillah kak Tati is really helpful and cheerful, Senang nak mintak tolong dia apa-apa specially bab kemas rumah. Sambil dia kemas tu kekadang mulut pok-pek2 la - menyanyi la.. hahahahah like she said, org berpantang ni kena happy-happy xleh murung. It is true actually, walaupon this is my third child and 1st time pantang dirumah sendiri.. but ive felt kemurungan tu masa my 1st confinement, memang rasa... xbest la pendek kata. But i used to hiburkan hati with shopping online sebab time tu bergaji seronok la shopping.. hahahaha. 

Ops, back to the story... so once kak tati settle masak, basuh, kemas semua... Time mommy la dimanjakan.. berurut & tungku time! =) Masa yang dinantikan on semua mommy rasanya tuk berurut dah ber-relex..betol tak mommies out there?
Bile lagi la nak berehat, diurut-urut dari kaki ke kepala. Dipicit supaya urat tenang - HEAVEN!
Hahahaha - Ellooo its confirm abis confinement ni mommies out there specially WAHM will be working non stop yer. Dari buka mata smpi la tutup mata- Gurl power!

Normally urut & tungku will be done latest by 1 pm. Lepas urut tu its lunch time.. mmg perut lapor lepas kena urut.. haha. Perut dah kenyang apa lagi tdo time laaa .. to recover those sleepless night. hahaha
And by 3 pm.. kak tati will prepare mandi baby and also rebus air herba lg sekali for mommy.
By 4 pm.. the driver will pick her up. Same rutin for tomorrow.
(",)

NI la dia kak Tati! Masa ni she help to carry Baby FI to the clinic.
(Ignore my pale face)

Kak Tati in action cleaning up while mommy on lappy.. cuci mata at lazada. =p

Random pic of my menu pantang..

Baby FI kena urut & tungku..
Tips for hiring CL:

1. What ever you want CL to do just ASK!.. seriously ask directly to the CL, do not complain to the bos.. she wont know. Only CL knows what we need. Specially those CL yang jenis xbanyak cakap. 
Specially bab masakkan.. cleaning up the fish, chicken -of cause la nak proper clean kan. Masin.. manis.. all we have to speak out. Dont just complain to the bos.. sometimes its kesian and unfair to the CL. 
2. Ensure the cost of travelling in included ..specially those yang travelling daily (not stay in). Some company does not include it.. so its gonna be additional charges. Beware!
