Yeah, the peak period is OVER!!

At least 2 months i spent my weekend in the office, 7 days a week and approximately with the minimum of 12 hours. Pergh, looking back at the past, I cant believe what i am doing. A pregnant lady proved that pregnancy is not a reason to avoid from commitment. So, let say if one day if i become a boss, trust me, its pretty hard for me to accept any such reason relating to your pregnancy and your work. Yeah, the key word is, do not pamper yourself. Cewahh macam belagak pulak kan.

But, actually thanks to my lovely colleagues who are very supportive and understanding. Without their cooperation, i dont think i can finish all my work within the specific time given. Yeah, diakui, memang penat gile, tambah2 baby dalam perut.

And to my dearly hubby, thank you so much. Well, everyone keep asking what is my hubby's reaction(including my partner). Hmm, he is so cool and very very very gentleman, willing to pick me up at any hour even at 5 am in the morning. Yes, ladies and gents, the last day i work until 5 am in the morning, and came back to the office around 9 am the next day. He will keep me company and will call me every now and then. And, if not because of him, my baby is short of supplies of all vitamins and calcium. Yelaa, when you are working too hard, you tend to forget your health.

So now, tuan-tuan dan puan-puan, cik-cik yang dihormati sekalian, lepas ni kite boleh laa chatting yer. I feel guilty whenever my friends BUZZ me, most of the time i just ignored them.

Haha, see my plan..

a) tidur.......... Note: Done
b) cut my hair.... Note: Done
c) see dentist....
d) spa............
e) cari baju maternity lagi

g) concentrate on my pregnancy..

Anyway, to all preggies and ibu ibu, Safe 'N Sound ade sale until 14 may, jom serang!!

Hai

Now its already 12.18 am, and i am still in the office, hundredssss tax returns must be out before next friday, and a few computations still sitting with me. Again, i dont know where i get all the strength to stay back until late at night everyday and come back to the office as usual the next day.

Please let me have 100 hours a day..

psstt .. wish me luck

Baby

Yesterday, we went to visit hubby's colleague at Damai Service Hospital to see their new born baby. For me, its an opportunity to observe how good and efficient they are in handling the newborn baby. Well, oklaa if you are not comparing with Gleneagles or Pantai or Ampang Puteri.

When we arrived, the baby was with her mum, looking at the baby, I was amazed to see a small creature who kicks inside ur tummy, sharing your foods, sharing your stories and sharing your life is born and now is on your lap.

At first, she offered me to hold the baby, but I was quite scared, ye laa baru berape jam je lahir, lagipun anak orang, tapi tak tahan. Geram. I put the baby on my lap and gently stroking her in different patterns :). Honestly, i am falling in love with that momment even though the baby is not mine.

The funny thing was, my baby only kicked me twice and the baby on my lap was so comfortably played around with my stupid jokes. Usually, everytime I hold the baby, is he is a boy, it is either the baby cried or my baby will continuously kicking me. Dearie said, my baby is as gatal as him.. haha.

Since then, I couldnt stop imaging how my life will be so colorful with my baby is around. Even, yesterday, mimpi baby lagi. And today, my baby bagi tendangan yang kaw-kaw punyer.

I should post the picture here, but forgot to bring the cable.

In Kemensah

Am supposed to go to the office today, but since I am here in Kemensah, I feel even better to spend some time with my siblings and my dearie. Being able to cook for them was the best thing that I can do. To tell you the truth, I dint pay a visit to Kemensah for almost a month!! I repeat a month!! Should I blame the work, yeah, boleh jugak.. So, even though the filing date is just around the corner, but I guess tengok adik-adik kat rumah lagi bagus. After all, Mama and Baba are on their vacation to a far far away land.

Ok, have I make up my mind? Err, I am still considering the pros and cons. And, alhamdulillah Dearie is here to help me to get through this tough decision. I expressed to him about my feeling towards the offer, and he is such a great friend where he is willing to listen and tolerate.

I understand for his concern about my health and also our future kid(s), and I am thankful to have a husband who really care and love u more than himself. So, ape lagi yang kite nak kan?

So, whatever decision after this, I already get a sincere approval from my hubby even though people around me might think that I am selfish or stupid. And I am happy if Dearie is happy. Lagipun, hubby sorang je yang paham ape baik buruk si Mira ni..

SYIKIN DAH BERSALIN

Rase hari ni baby mesti nak tidur lame sikit, sebab ibu die terlebih aktif hari ni. Dah rase dah mesti hari ni rushing gile-gile. Ade clients nak tax returns by today, padahal baru masuk bilik senior manager for review semalam. Ingatkan bile sampai office pagi-pagi boleh terus final, sekali still in her room. Damn..

So dalam nak dekat kul 10 tu, baru laa SM ni kasik. Mak aii kelam kabut jugak laa, dah laa dengan ade meeting. Meeting tu pulak is to discuss the progress of our workload. So memandangkan name pun start hurup W,so kene laa tunggu giliran. Nak final 4 tax comp serentak, phew bukannye senang, tambah-tambah client banyak laa pulak rental income, unit trusts, dividen, interest income etc..

And in betweem, senior-senior lain pun kejar bagi this and that. So, mase lunch ibu mengandung ni tak sempat nak pergi lunch sebab despatch nak anta pukul 0145. Sekali nak anta, mak aiii, ade amendments laa pulak sebab salah key in one figure je. Sakit hati laa jugak sebab kene renew balik BE Form dengan tax comp.

So habis je hantar dekat client, kejar pulak pi IRB sebab nak kene verify passport, pastu kene return dekat client. Mak aii kat IRB sekarang, ramai gile!! Sejam kiterang tunggu. Luckily Em cuti, so die temankan bini die.

Geram juga, ramai betul yang datang nak isi Form BE mase tu laa jugak, korang ni, bukan ke personal details boleh isi kat rumah? Lepas tu mase nak pi anta passport kat client, sesat laa pulak, Em dah bising-bising sebab mira tak tanye direction dulu. Sorry ye sayang :p

Bayangkan nak dekat pukul 6 baru masuk office balik. Kalau ikut hati nak je balik, tapi tak bley. Mase buat keje tengah malam-malam, dapat message dr Hana, ANNOUNCEMENT

SYIKIN DAH BERSALIN - BABY GIRL

Alaaa, syikin yang selalu bising-bising kat tagboard sini. Even though tak penah jumpe, tapi memang i really really excited for her. Tak sabar nak dengar cite die, nak amik pengalaman. Hehe. Mesti comel kan baby die. HANA- please post a picture in your blog.

Oklaa hubby dah ZZZZZZZZZ, nak ikut die

Hai

Too tired to talk, too tired to speak, too tired to write.
Letih. Sejak-sejak dah bulan 6 pregnant, mira dah makin tak larat and cepat penat. Monday, I sampai rumah pukul 12, yesterday 10+. Imagine laa banyak mane keje kiterang. Naik tangga setingkat pun dah termengah, but somehow I proud to be myself. Even though I am pregnant, I am able to do what I can do before Im getting pregnant even though throughout the period, I have some complications during my pregnancy.

I dun really like the way people give reasons because they are pregnant, stressful, having a problem with your family/bf/gf because everyone of us do have a problem to solve or a decision to make.

Speaking about the decision, I have received an "uninvited" called from a woman who is currently working with the government. She informed me that I have been offered a position that I really admire before I joined EY.

Yerp, I dint give the definite answer. In my mind, I wanted to reject because you know how I feel when I talk about a government servant. (I mean not all). But, the atmosphere is so much different when i told the news to my hubby.

He was so excited, I understand laki mane tak happy kalau banyak mase sikit kat rumah. Abang, you promise me 3 bende kan, kalau ikut semalam, terlebih2 la pulak sayang die. Deep in my heart, I wanted to argue about my feeling and ambition but thinking about my family, restu mak ayah (my parents serious suke betul) and restu husband, I guess the job will promise me a better future in my life.

And this is called sacrification. I do get some opinions with my colleagues and friends and most of them preferred if I accept the offer. Lepas dah fikir masak-masak, lepas fikir balik ape akan jadi, lepas fikir balik here and there, I have called the person in charge and inform her I accept the offer.

Life goes on...

Btw, if you are in my position

Married, having a kid, husband suke kalau masuk that post, both family suke, orang kate rezeki baby, keje you ade sekarang ni teruk jugak, attractive salary BUT

you are happy ape yang u buat sekarang... what will you do??

Happy birthday Ika

Sesungguhnya memang confirm si ika takkan bukak website ni, nak tekan pun tak tau. Yang die tau, kalau connect internet je, die akan pi www.barbie.com Dah umur 10 tahun dah. Jauhkan beze ngan mira. 14 tahun beze. Ika dah cop name dah tuk anak sedara die, die nak suruh anak sedara die panggil die Su Yang / Mak Su Yang maksud die "Bongsu Sayang". Sabar je la kan.

Kesian die, birthday party die dah buat last weekend, but kakak die tak dapat nak attend. Huwaaaaaaaa!!! I dah start tak nak continue lagi keje ni next year. Tolong...!! Nak pinjam jadual keje HotMama.

Surprised announcement

I was typing a telememo. FYI - every single call that we attend, as the staff, we need to record and file it. Suddenly, the monitor screen jadi hitam and everyone was screaming. Damn, blackout!!

Yeah, we are reaching towards the end of the first stage of compliance season. 31 March is the submission date for Form E (the Remuneration Statement of Employer) and most of my colleagues are dying to complete it on behalf of the client. Office is acting like a 7 Eleven.

The tense, depress, stress are the obstacles that each of us has to face. Alhamdulillah, this time around I have been assigned to do 4 Form Es and I have completed it by last week. Kalau mase ni tak siap lagi, rase i pun boleh terberanak. :p

So, after a few hours, my partner announced that we all can go home. Yerp, everyone is puzzled but happy to hear the good news even though the fact is we have to postpone our work. So, ape lagi, i packing ape yang patut yang boleh bawak balik rumah, and chiaooo.. And some of us, balik rumah dulu, lepas tu malam karang datang balik ofis.. Me, tak pe laa.. tak larat.

Compliance.. compliance.. sekarang tunggu 28 April pulak.. Lepas tu i wanna spend a good time with my hubby and family.

Finally

I thought the sale is over but its not. I was on my MC today, asked hubby to drop me at Mid Valley after the appointment with the gynea. But it ended up, I waited for hubby to shop with me as he will do all the payment. Haha.

Ini untuk ibu..

Sorry yek sayang, satu je untuk sayang kali ni, sebab terlebih budget dekat ibu.. :)

Appointment with gynea.

Quite disappointed today because the printer was not working!! My baby will miss his picture on 26th weeks. Anyway, surprisingly and alhamdullilah cos my blood pressure is OK even though with all the hardwork that i have pushed myself into. But still not a good news for my placenta, masih lagi dekat bawah. Bile laa baby ku ini nak bagi die naik but alhamdullilah again, my baby is in position.

Hubby said, this time around our baby is not in the mood to give his best pose, I guess he already know the printer was not working. Takde aksi2 yang menarik, duduk diam je. My gynea advise me to drink a lot of water since the fluids for my baby tak cukup. At least 4.5 litres per day. Gosh!! Usually, I always disciplined myself to drink 3 litres a day itupun dah penat sebab I frequently go to the toilet. Ni 4.5 litres!!

But but but, dengarlaa semua orang, I can see my baby face quite clearly. Dapat tengok pipi tembam die. He has a square face!! Thanks for the technology. Again, our gynea confirmed it is still a boy. :D

Sadly, my gynea said I nearly overweight. She asked me to control my diet as it will effect the delivery process. Oh ya, baby sekarang ni berat die dah 910gm. Last month 480g. Doktor kate sayang tak cukup berat, tapi Ibu bace buku, berat baby at this stage is normal. :)

A visit to that FURNITURE SHOP

I told u rite, our dining table tak dapat-dapat lagi. So for the first time ever in my life, mira mengamuk kat kedai. Haha. Bengang gile!! Entah le.. My advice: Dont ever visit that furniture shop in Jalan Balakong. Tapi at least lege jugak bile dah bebel-bebel kat derang. Hubby cool je. Control :p

Movement

Hi readers, sorry this blog is becoming more and more like motherhood website. :D. I admit that day by day I m loving this pregnancy and surely i can talk about this experience 24 hours a day. Sorry Emmachan, but loving it when new preggies such as HotMama, fynn, and syik_r are sharing their stories with me.

I clearly remember the first time when my baby moved. Feeling a bit "flutters". But after a few days I realise that my baby is making those funny sensations. For me, it is the beginning that someone live inside my womb.

As my baby grows, the movements become more definite. Boleh rase tendang, bergolek, tukar position. The first time hubby listen to the movements, he was shocked. And up until now, if I asked him to place his head on my tummy, he is kind of "afraid" to face this surprise drum.

And now, with just putting my hand on my tummy, I can listen to his/her heartbeat. When I talk to my baby, sometimes his/her movements slowing down or increasing in response. He/ She is still very active with the real kicks!!

And you know what, my baby movements is more noticeable at night when I am doing nothing especially when i already in bed rather than during the day when I am more active. My hubby and I love to see my tummy when my baby kicks, best!! Boleh nampak ade bende terpancul-pancul dari perut..

I guess this baby already has a cycle of sleeping and playing. At 1-3 am (hyper active) he/she will kick, twist and turn until I sometimes get awake in the middle of the night. But during the day my baby is very very quiet with slow movements. But im bet, at 9-10 pm my baby is probably sleeping and this is the time where hubby loves to knock on my tummy.

Cute kan... I never knew that having a baby in my tummy is the bestest experience ever!!
