Relaxing Sunday

 

I feel so stress recently. There were a lot of things bugging me. As of the moment I feel so helpless and things is not under my control. Yet I won't give up. I can rest, take a deep breath and I know I can surpass this again as I always did. I have them and the rest that's all that matters. Go kha!

Setting Up Topics to Write

I am one of those bloggers who suffer writers block. The thing is I felt like it happened most of the time to me. But whenever I am not in front of the computer, I think and have in mind a lot of topics to write and to share. Formulating my own management on my condition (pertaining to writer's block thingy). I decided to make a list of topics that pops up on my mind. I may never know where and what blog for it to categorize but just keep on writing such titles and topic description is a big help. Still I am having a hard time staying in the computer because of my 21 month old daughter but borrowing mom's tablet phone, helps me to write down what I needed and continues it when my baby's asleep. I am into monetizing my blog but more than that as the main reason I have blogs is to chronicle our life, adventures and misadventures. Earning is a big bonus for me in blogging which is I am much thankful about. Recently I've got to enjoy reading archives of my blogs. It made me laugh, reminisce, sometimes saddened and recall what were the things I should be thankful for today. I also found out that I am getting more and more better in writing. Heehee. Though my blogs sometimes took so long before I update it, it only means my daughter has more time on the computer than me. ;D

So Happy for Her

I am so happy for Ferry and Paul, that finally their long wait is over! She's finally pregnant! The reason why her blogs kept untouched for days now. I can't contain my happiness knowing the good news directly from her. The day she had known about the good news, I received a call from her informing me then. My little master will now going to have new God-sister or brother maybe. I, once thought it will be twin or triplets, since they have a history in the family. But then she confirmed that it is only one and they were very very thankful of it. It's obvious to Paul that he was so happy the very first day seeing a positive result in a pregnancy test kit and as the day goes by. They were somehow over reacting but I understand their happiness. And knowing Ferry, over reacting is understatement when it comes to her pregnancy. :) 

Congratulations Paul & Ferry! Lyxn can't wait to see the little Poneng! :)

The Well Ventilated Place for my Baby

There were a lot of advantages a well ventilated place has. As a matter of fact it has been advised to everyone to have a well ventilated living space as much as possible. So expect that it is more of an advantage for a baby to have or live in one very well ventilated space. And that's what I want and prefer for my baby. Since mom's house has lots of large windows obviously my precious will not feel suffocation. We also saved a lot from electricity of using electric fans or air-con if there is. A fresh air easily pass with the large windows and can soothe a good feeling for a sleepy baby. It is more good for a baby to feel the fresh air from mom's trees than an alternative air coming from electric appliances. Mom's house need not to have a chandeliers just to have a very light space. Simple and some elegant modern lighting of her choice is enough to make it more feel ventilated. Plus the fact that she loves planting and cleaning every day that will make the ventilated space more light and that I can say a very good attitude if my baby will adapt it from her. The cleaning and planting thing. Back again to a ventilated space, a baby will always have a positive aura everyday she wakes up as she feels everything is so light. For a baby like mine who is a chubby and perspiration a lot, this kind of environment for her is more likely. It will reduce the risk for her to have illnesses since she was staying in a place like what mom has. I know she'll loving it and as soon as she knows how to appreciates, I know she will be thankful to her mama. My mom and her grand mom. 

The Princess

I know, I know this is already a month late update. I am not allowed to watch television, sit in front of the computer, text, wash hands with tap water, took a bath for week, stay late and a lot more. All I am allowed is to take care of my little princess, breastfed and rest. It's a nice feeling to be pampered where I am not entitled to do household chores but only have bonding time with our new bundle of joy. So this late post is better than never right?..hihihi

I gave birth via normal spontaneous delivery last October 28, 2011 at 4:50 in the afternoon. I was brought at the hospital and my cervix already dilated by 8 centimeters. Fortunately I wasn't told by the physicians on duty to walk around. Instead they hurriedly contacted my OB which is currently in the near hospital. I reached the fully dilated cervix yet my bag of water was not yet ruptured. Doctor needs to manually rupture the BOW. Obviously I have a princess, it's a girl at 38 weeks and 2 days finally arrived weighing 3.25 kg and 51 cm long. Doctor said that my baby is too big and long for a five footer me. Luckily (thank God) I with the help of the healthcare team gone through delivering the baby normally. At first the resident on duty is quite hesitant of letting me deliver the baby normally, she actually in a state of suggesting an emergency cesarean section delivery. My placenta is on grade 2 which means I am risk for placenta previa and my baby had her cord coiled into her neck. But kudos to my doctor (most especially to Him) who believes (and guide us) in my baby and me that we both can surpass the stage. The ouchy part I have 11 stitches down under. All through the process I am widely awaken until I was transferred to my room. I haven't seen yet my baby that same day but the morning after she was brought for rooming in and breastfed session.

That's the beautiful story behind why my blogs almost have spider webs :).
