My developement @ 26weeks

mummy wants to share this with you..


Your Baby:

Your baby’s developed oil and sweat glands are now functioning. His fingernails, toenails, eyebrows and eyelashes are now fully present and will continue to grow until birth. He can respond to sound and can hear you and those around you. Although we assume that the uterus is a quiet place, the baby has been surrounded by noise for a long time. Things like your heartbeat, digestion, other body functions and external noises are heard by the baby. In fact, you may feel the baby jump at a sudden noise. Your baby is now about 14 inches and weighs a little less than two pounds.
The uterus also allows some light to be seen so your baby is aware of light and dark. Your baby’s skin is wrinkled and translucent and may have a reddish color due to the presence of dermal blood vessels. Veins are visible through your baby's skin, although it is quickly changing from transparent to opaque. The following months will see increase in body fat. The lungs continue to mature with the development of air sacs and also begin to secrete surfactant (a substance that will help your baby’s lungs expand at birth). At this stage of development the various organs have formed. About 4 out of 10 babies born now may survive (with intensive care services).

Your Body:

As your baby continues to grow you will often find yourself with aches and pains from the pressure. These include back pain, pelvic pain and even pain in your sides or ribs. The best thing to do when this happens is to change your position or move around for a little while. Often, your movement is enough to cause baby to move thus releasing the pressure and relieving the pain.
Finding a comfortable position for sleeping may feel like Mission Impossible! Between all the time spent going from the bed to the bathroom or kitchen, you are going to need to get as much rest as possible. If you need to, invest in a body pillow to help you get into a comfortable position and it will help in supporting your legs and growing belly. Also, don’t be afraid to nap during the day if you need to.
Your fundal height has reached approximately 2 to 2 ½ inches above your navel.

Mummy@26weeks~6th Checkup~18 February 2008

Phewww... mummy teramaattss la busy nye lately ni. Keje ofis menimbun plus badan yg semakin berat. Jalan pon slow jek.. adehh!
Mummy nak update checkup mummy @ 6 months. That day macam biasa mummy gi check up dgn beloved hubby. Tapi kan kali ni mummy rase mcm tak baper nak excited sgt. nape ntah... hmm..

As usual, mummy kene timbang berat..perghh.. naik lagik sekilo. Tapi nurse tu ckp mummy untung coz since preggy sampai 6 months baru naik 2 kilo je.. ye keh? errr.. sbb dah sedia berat kot.. ngehehehe..

Then Dr Z reported mummy nye sugar and blood presure oso ok. Alhamdulillah.. cumanye bile mummy ngadu pasal breast mummy belah kiri ni mcm sumthing wrong, he checked and informed that the nipple ada mcm buta sikit.. Dr Z ckp nati dia kasi ubat sapu, kene sapu hari2 lepas mandi. Pastu dia nasihat minum air barli untuk kasi susu banyak.

Masa scanning, my little angel tgh sibuk garu kepala dia.. err.. ye ke.. ehee.. sbb Dr Z tunjuk tangan kiri ada kat atas kepala, while tangan kanan atas dada. Then Dr Z tunjuk mata dia, hidung dia yg mancung tu, dan dahi yang jendul tu..(mcm babah ek.. kekeke). My uri pun ada kat kedudukan normal. Pastu masa Dr Z nak pasang duplo untuk dgr degup jantung, tetiba dgr bunyik Duuupp!!.. laa... anak mummy gi tendang menatang tuh.. ayoooo..! dia marah ekk.. org kacau dia.. :p. Dr Z ukur kepala dia utk kiraan berat. Wahhh.. anak mummy dah 1.2kg!
Patutla mummy cepat mengah.. maknanye, berat bukan berat mummy yang bertambah.. baby yang menambahkan berat kat mummy.. :p

After baby's scanning, Dr Z checked my tulang perviks. This to ensure mummy can give normal or have to do ceaserean masa bersalin nanti. Alhamdulillah, Dr Z ckp mummy boleh bersalin normal..InsyaAllah kalau xde apa2 berlaku pada baby and mummy nati. Mummy juga kene enjek titanus (kancing gigi) for preparation utk give birth nati. Lenguh2 tangan mummy mase lepas kene enjek..nak demam pun ade. Sib baik babah concern tolong tuam2 tangan mummy yg lenguh2 tu..

Balik dari check up mummy ngan babah gi layan soursoup blanded (my fav mase preggy nih). Mummy can finish 2 glasess sekali ok.. tambah plak dgn nan cheese with tandoori chicken breast part.. perrrrghhh!! Makan kenyang2 sampai mummy and my little angel tido lena mlm tu.. :p

Babah dia...

Hehehehhe...:p

So far, mummy and babah dah spent sikit for baby stuff. Antara barang2 yang kami dah beli:

1) Baby drawer
2) Baby cradle
3) 3 pieces rompers
4) 2 sets baju tidur
5) mittens & booties
6) nursing pillow
7) thermos
8) bakul utk isi brg2 baby

Ramai ckp barang2 yg besar tak payah beli dulu. Yess.. we got the sponsor oredi.. haha! MakLong dia janji nak kasi stroller, Pakngah plak nak belikan walker. On my side, Pak Abang dia nak belikan buai, Mak Yang Uda nak sponsor playmat (makyang uda, koman2 Fisher Price eh.. ehee), Wan dan Atok nak belikan playpan/baby cot, Mak Ikin taktao lagi nak beli ape.. nanti mummy fikirkan okey.. Emm... Avent Electronic Breastpump anyone? lalala~
Alhamdullilah, murah rezeki jugak anak mummy. Belom kuar lagi dah ade sponsor. Actually mummy tak kesah sgt pun.. (org nak bagi kite amek je laa.. :p). Mummy pon tgh pening2 nih taktao nak beli yg mana dulu. Babah dia lagik la blur.. kalo pegi area babies jek.. semua dia nak pegang. Same la ngan mummy. Geram2 tgk baby stuff specially baju2 dia. cute-cute...!
Chinese new year nih last sale yg kitorg nak kejar. Lepas nih, sale maybe on May. masa tu dah sarat. Sure tak larat nak shopping. Ada jugak mummy survey stuff kat online. Hmmmm.. :/

Antenatal Class

Me and my hubby went to antenatal class held by P*sra*i Hospital. It just for our preparation for our little one yang akan lahir tak lama lagi.. weehoo..!

Antara topik yang dibincangkan:

1) Kehamilan dan kelahiran - by Dr Zul (mummy's gynea)
2) Epidural - Dr Raof
3) Makanan untuk bayi - Pakar pemakanan dari Dutch Lady (main sponsor)
4) Stem Life
5) Physiotheraphy - senaman utk ibu mengandung dan kaedah melahirkan

Masa talk on epidural topics, I learned and decided not to take it sbb sedikit sebanyak ada effectnya kat baby. hmm.. see how first. Kalo dah tak tahan sakit sangat, have to la.. My bee pun berpendapat mcm tu. Plus the cost quite high.. tahan sikit je la..
Then masuk topic Stem Life, we decided to subcribe it memandangkan ia sgt berguna dan penting utk masa depan kami dan anak2 kami nanti. This have to be confirmed once dah masuk 7 months nati.
Part paling best time Physiotheraphy. Klakar pon ade. They teach us how to push and some exercise for pregnant mum. Now me and hubby practice it everyday coz it was good and fun.
Overall, we enjoyed the class. The main sponsor pun bagi byk doorgifts (susu, baju baby, towel, pampers, pamplets, magazine, etc). This coming 17th Feb ada antenatal class part 2. Can't wait!! :)
