37 weeks 6 days


Assalamualaikum and hye

I am still here in my office and everyone was like "Yanaaa u're still here??" "Bila nak cuti?". The answer is I do not know. Will see. I can never tell when I am going to have my labour obviously. I will just go with the flow. But, I guess I will just ask for few days-MC from my gynae at 39 weeks if let say there is no sign of labour still. Based on previous labour experiences with the two brothers, I gave birth to Fahri at 38 weeks 3 days and Naeem was at 39 weeks 2 days. So, we'll just wait and see for baby no 3. 

Of course, I am so nervous thinking about THE DAY. I mean, different labours will have different story. Of course I am praying to Allah swt to ease my labour pain and journey just like the brothers, Abang Fahri and Abang Naeem. 

I still remember (and luckily I have this blog for me to refer), my labor pain when delivering Fahri took one hour and it took me four hours to deliver Naeem. Alhamdulillah for the short labor especially for Abang Fahri. But again, we can never tell how the labour journey will be for this baby. Allah swt is the best planner indeed. I leave everything to HIM and may Allah swt always protect me and my baby with smooth and easy delivery...aminn

While waiting the baby to make the appearance (I am yet to reveal the gender...  because I am kinda person who will only tell when I actually see it haha), these are the things on my mind:

1) Gonna meet my gynae this Friday for the 38th week check up. It's gonna be our 4th check-up in UMRA. So far, I've met two gynaes, one male gynae (that time, I forgot to request for female gynae) then the second visit, I met Dr Wan Elly (she's so adorable) so I stick to her till my third visit last week. Currently, UMRA is practicing an additional charge if you want to book for an O&B to attend you during labour. But, I guess I am ok with any OB as long as it's a SHE... in shaa Allah. And based on my experience, UMRA will provide female OBs for normal labour.. and the male doctors will usually attend emergency c-sect procedures. Well, wish me luck!

2) Oh ya, during my second visit in UMRA, Dr Elly did this swab procedure, where she took a little of my discharge sample to check whether I have GBS (kind of infection), It's a normal procedure when you are at your final trimester. And yes, I do have GBS. Thus, I already took the vaginal tablets, Fluomizin which I need to insert 6 tablets for 6 nights into my V! Ohhh I will not tell you the process of doing it hahahah but only 4 tablets managed to get through LOL! So, on the next visit, I told Dr Elly about it and she said it's ok as long as at least 3 tablets go through. Ok good. Anyway, she has informed me that once I have my labour sign later, they will drip me with antibiotic for another GBS treatment. Ok hope this GBS thingy will just go away as I have read it's not good for the baby. But according to her, the infection as in my case is just at moderate level.

3) If I feel OK, this Thursday, I will go to PPUM because they want to conduct a study for my pregnancy as according to them, my pregnancy case is interesting (thyroidless pregnancy). There will be students and specialist interviewing me, asking some questions and they will pay a bit. I will update more on that, IF I feel larat to go that day.

4) Getting more emotional by day now as I am thinking too much about how my boys gonna be during the first few days of my confinement. I mean, I know my boys. I know how to pujuk them when they dont want to eat, don't want to do homework, dont want to pray, etc. I really hope I have the strength to entertain them (huhu that seems impossible for the first few days of pantang) and of course my husband will be super helpful, in sha Allah. And of course they have their opah, atok, nenek, tok wan, acu Alhamdulillah. Hope everything will go well and easy.

5) Still finding the strength to wake up at early midnight or before fajr to perform Solat Sunat. I MUST really need to do this before I give birth.

6) There are still few surahs in my checklist that I haven't recited. Hopefully I can khatam the remain selected surahs soon.

Till next post In shaa Allah
