While I was sleeping-2nd night

Last night Hubs went out with his friends....again. His former classmates had a gathering at a pub near Feringghi. One of the attendee being his best friend. So there goes the grandmother stories again. Their conversation did not end when the group disperse. Both of this guy adjourned to a mamak stall. I woke up around 4+am only to find his side of bed was empty as before I went to bed. A look at the phone clock gave me a shock of my life. The first thought that come to my mind was, "Is Hubs drunk till he can't come home?", and "Did something went wrong when he was on his way back?". Only after he answered the phone telling me he was already downstairs parking his car did manage to calm me down. And I continued to sleep.

This morning, we woke up around 7am to go for prayers. So doing the calculation, Hubs only has 2 hours of sleep. It was also a day our godson came and to officially thru the ceremony. It was also the day where his best friend came for visiting. And after all that, we got to visit my sis in the confinement center. She was sleepless last night, worrying about her baby being taken care by strangers and hearing cries thru the night. I think she might have post natal depression. All this end up we reach home again at quarter to 6pm. Hubs must be very tired. As I am writing this, he's snoring away on the bed...again. Exactly the same as last night. Dejavu??

I'm going to be mommy

Well, not really a real mom. It's more to a godmommy. We had decided to make Ben, Hub's cousin's son to be our godson. He is a piggie, just like me. We are very compatible, and so is Hubs who is a goat. Tomorrow, the ceremony will take place in my now house. So excited! Can't wait for him to come...I wonder how long do I have to wait till he can call me godmommy.

Baby nephew progress

A lil something on what happen this few days

First day

- he was put under observation in separate room on the first day

Second day

-still in separate room till later of the day. transfer out to the same nursery with other newborns. saw him for the first time. he kept twitching his nose and mouth, once in awhile trying to open his lil eyes

Third day

-was infected with jaundice and put under the blue light. Saw him from afar, he was moving his tiny hands and legs

Fourth day

Although he was premature for one month, he was still on par with the other newborns. He weights at 2.45kg and height at 46cm. Quite a big guy for his condition. Well done, boy!

While I was sleeping

Yesterday was 2nd day of CNY. It was also the 2nd time Hubs has a blast of his time at the mini casino table. The first time was with my extended family. Being the first day of CNY, I had prepared him to wear red shirt. Coincidently, his box of new underwear came in red color too. So that particular day, he went out with bloddy red shirt + underwear. At the mini casino table, he won a 260% return. On the 2nd day, he made appointment with his best friend to open another mini casino again. As it was quite late, I didn't follow him out. But I prepared the red underwear again. He came back at 4.30am, when I was deep in my dreamland. This morning, he proudly told me he made another 100+. His balasan? He can't open his eyes even at 11am. And now, he's sleeping like a baby while the crackers was blasting outside. Sigh....Another round of late night later on.

My baby nephew has arrived

That lil cutey is suppose to due on March but he just feel so excited over Chinese New Year, he can't wait to get out. My sis water bag leaked on Monday, just almost office hour. She was rushed to hospital and being admitted for a night for observation. They was still suspecting only that time. Doctor confirmed and she was to deliver the next day, which is Tuesday. Sis wanted a mickey mouse but turned out to be piggy, 2 rounds younger than this piggy (me!). She actually told the doctor to wait but doc's advise is to get him out as the water will be gone soon. After that, it will be infection and the baby might not survive. She was put on medication for the 'hole' to open up but sadly, after two doses and numerous unbearable pain, it won't bulge a bit. Mom and Dad waited till 3am this morn but when home empty hope.

Doc came this morning at around 9am, sent her straight into labor and c-sec her. Poor thing. Pain all night but still have to be cut. Anyway, I'm going to meet my lil nephew for the first time later. Oh, my heart is full of joy. He will be our first grandson to my family, and a first great grandson to my only grandpa.

From 2 years to 1 year to......half?

I had a long lunch break yesterday. Not that I am not used to it but this time is different. Me and 2 other female colleagues had it in-house. Normally an in-house lunch would only take 1/2 hour to max of 45 mins. Yesterday we sat for nearly 1 and half hour. We had our lil lady chat ;p One of them is preggie. So I started off with asking her how many babies did she plan. Apparently this question had been raised by so many people after "When are you going to have baby?" question ended when she got pregnant. She used to think like me, to only start planning to have baby a year or two after getting married. Somehow the question being asked too many times she started to lose count and got stressed out. Couldn't handle the stress, she and her hubby got into serious discussion and decided to try it after 1/2 year into marriage. Panic button started to beep furiously when their attempts didn't show any results. Upon consultation with doctors, it seems that the reasons were because she is over stress and partly due to her hormone change from her frequent traveling. After trying for almost two years, now she is into her 4th month of pregnancy. Congrats!

When she asked what's my plan, I casually told her probably in 2009 to which my other colleague had a good laugh. According to her, my plan used to be two years after my wedding. What to do? From the previous chat with my sisters, they urged me not to delay it for so long. My eldest sister has been trying for a few months but to no avail, and to that she is has anxiety attack. So all of them, including my colleague advised us to start trying after a few months. Now, they are making me more nervous. I've shorten my period from 2 years to 1 year.

What if luck was not on my side when I want to have one? Should I start trying earlier? Half year? I must be insane for thinking so early. I'm not even married yet! GOSH! Should I start planning? Should I not? How long do one need to conceive? How long did you take to conceive?
