Motherhood Rocks!!

Raisa is 1 month and 17 days today,which means i have not blog ever-since and i have another 13 more days to spent the Q-time with my precious Raisa. Its kinda scary thinking how time flies, still feels like as though she was still in my tummy, kicking and i only get to see those cute little face once a week via ultrasound, the minute i know, now she's on my lap, sleeping. Yeah..Raisa is so attached to me that she just want to be with me all the time.

Okay,well i have a lot to share, lets start with how Raisa finally decided to see the world...wait.. She was force to see the world..that's more like it..hehe.I was induced for labor on Friday(23Oct) afternoon, 2pm. It was painless so i had a feeling that tonight's NOT gonna be a good night..that its gonna be long hours of waiting....but i was wrong!!Thank god my water bag broke at 7.30pm. and labor room..here i come!!I dilated around 4 cms. Still there was no pain, so i did not opt for epidural.(what was I thinking). 9pm, i was extremely excited..WHY?...becoz i get to watch 'Nurkasih'.20 minutes later..ouchh..the mother of all pain..CONTRACTION has started to begin and the pain was even greater and greater. I was adviced to take the gas, which claimed to ease the pain, but hell NO..not only i can still feel the pain, i was drowsy, high and was completely not myself!I cant control myself, I was screaming...I saw my hubby's face..like 10 of them.Woo..It was a nightmare. But God is great, my prince charming came to the rescue, my hubby managed to calm me and after the 3rd push attempt..Raisa has finally ready to meet her mommy and daddy.The time was 9.53pm.....to be continued

Raisa admitted for jaundice :(

Baby Raisa,

Enjoying Motherhood

Introducing my love.. my happiness, Siti Raisa Imani

A surprise Baby Shower for my dear Veen!!

It took us one week to plan just about everything. I'm so glad it all went well despite me being 'not so well'.The funny part was Veen had no clue that we are preparing this for her. I have to made up stories just to drag her to the Apartment KLCC last Sunday. Thank god, it all turned out just as planned!

Anyway, My baby is still happily staying in my tummy...still enjoying all the nice food mummy is taking. Mommy is still waiting honey, but now, impatiently!
This gorgeous centerpiece is perfectly done by Yes. The baby shower favors, as u can see, the big milk bottle is actually a coins container decorated with ribbons and 'Its a Baby Boy' Hallmark cards are prepared by me.
I so love the purple n white helium balloons..Yes personally chose them since purple has always been Veen's fave color...and who would have ever thought that she would dress in purple top on that day?such a coincidence..she really did surprised us...aww so glad everything fell into places PERFECTLY!

The venue and food selection were done by me. The venue selection was basically based on the location, the coolest cafe that is the nearest to Ampang Putri Hospital, just incase if any emergency, u know what i mean ;). As for the food, I chose a bit of this and that, just to have varieties and the food are YUMMERS!! From left is steak sandwiches and on the right hand side is Peking Duck Crepe. The middle dish is my fave desert, "put it here,put it here"...hehe..yeah my Eton Mass..yummieee
Menu of the day:
Appetizer come main course
2 x Peking Duck Crepe
3 x steak sandwiches
Desert
3 x Baked Choc Pudding
2 x Eton Mass

All served in one go. And hey we managed to finished them all..hehe..its not a problem when u have 3 pregnant ladies, veen(9 months), cat(4 months +) & i(9 months +) in the house....we eat while we can!!
What most important is to make my dear friend Veen, happy!
"Veen, U have been so dear to me all these years and u deserve all the happiness in this world.Cant wait to see your cute lil' boy.Love you lots babe!Hugs**"

p/s: Thanks Yes, Cat & Naj for such a blast Sunday!

All my bags are packed...Im ready to go!!

not so fast...looks like my baby is still enjoying herself in my big tummy...baby cepatlah kuar..come and meet the world sayang :) mommy cant wait to see you comel

The helper/maid is finally here!!

Hello everyone!Here's my new maid, Asma. Very young and hopefully she is as energetic as she looks since i am desperately need a helper to make sure the house is clean and insyaallah to look after our baby when he/she is born soon. A lot relief for me becoz god knows how stressful i was when the maid was not around. Being 8 months pregnant and still wanting to do the house cores like before does leave an impact on me esp emotionally. I guessed, that's when my hubby decided to have the maid early. Who can actually stand a grumpy wife..hehe..i was not that bad!

Now, it is high time for her to be trained. My feet n fingers has started to be swollen, i cant even write a single word. Now i am started to walk like a penguin..hehe..my mood swings are unpredictable and recently experiencing bad headache and tummy ache.

..I'm not complaining, just enjoying the motherhood moments :)

My Surprise Baby Shower

Im sorry. I know I owe u guys 2 posts but i can only pre post one entry at the moment since i have not been well lately, down with mild fever, flue..terrified with the H1N1..gosh..i guess its all part and parcel of becoming a mother..a 'Strong' one!

One thing for sure, I just got to share with you on what had happened last Sunday. I was asleep the whole afternoon after buying a bouquet of pink roses for my bestfriend, Veen. She's throwing a birthday party in the evening at Delicious Marc Service Residence. My hubby woke me up a few times becoz he knew that no matter what, i really cannot missed this one. And so i finally woke up, and at that time my hubby was all ready and set to go. I rushed myself and we left home at about 5 pm. The party was supposed to start at 5pm. I was late!

As i was there, suddenly Veen came to me and said
" Iza,welcome to your Baby Shower Party"

Hubby was smiling and so does everyone. I was so shock! Speechless..amazed with the beautiful decor...just like what I've always imagined..small crowd, intimate moment with my loved ones. Veen has been planning this for almost a month, and my hubby n Qme have been conspiring with her all the while. Im so touched.

Here's the Party favour made from love. A personalised mix cd with songs for mommies, daddies, aunties, uncles and babies, a teddy bear keychain, personalised fridge magnet "Iza & Yad's Baby Shower" and "It's a Boy", 'It's a Girl" peppermint candies :) Perfectly done by VeenWith my BFFs.....Veen, Myself and Qme :) Thank you Veen for being so dear to me. We have been through a lot together..10 years of true friendship. To My darling hubby thank you for never failed to make me happy. To Qme thank you for always being there for me no matter how far you are..and to Yes, thank you for being so sweet & kind to me.

Mummy and Baby(in my tummy) are both very happy and we felt so blessed to have such wonderful people around us.

Smile :)

Two wrongs do not make a right

I was stuck in the middle when a friend of mine started to bad mouth another friend of ours over some personal issues. As a normal human being, off course at first i tend to believe it but when i think deeply, there's always two sides of a story. I only heard one side and yeah how true the story was, only God knows. Some people can be really good when making up stories. And for the fact of sharing it with me and others*, to me was very much unmatured. My advice, stop it, be an adult and SOLVE IT!
p/s:peace!i meant well :)
i miss MJ!sob*sob*Alfatihah buat Mikhail.

Smile though your heart is aching

Smile even though it's breaking

When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by

If you smile through your fear and sorrow

Smile and maybe tomorrow

You'll find that life is still worthwhile

If you just smile

Light up your face with gladness

Hide every trace of sadness

Although a tear may be ever so near

That's the time you must keep on trying

Smile, what's the use of crying?

You'll find that life is still worthwhile

If you just smile

Our beloved VP Farewell Party * coming soon*
