Preggy Diaries: 3rd Trimester #BabyH


Hello third trimester!
The last part of my pregnancy journey! I cannot believe how fast this has flown especially compared to my first time with Aulia'! This last trimester has flown just as fast as the entire pregnancy! I have definitely found myself slowing down a lot more these last few weeks. I also has taken 2 weeks off from work just to rest and do lots of walking (to the mall!). I am currently at 40 weeks and I have gained 11 kgs which I'm super happy with! Baby H in tummy weight about 3.2 kgs. No stretch marks so far. I am a lot bigger (bump-wise) than I was with A so I feel as though I might get lucky. If not who cares I will have another gorgeous person in my life!I used virgin coconut oil on my belly each night. Flawless! 😉

My mind has been quite busy lately trying to get organised for our new house, Aulia' getting into standard 1, and a baby so it can all get a bit much but feeling very blessed. My anxiety is always heightened during pregnancy which I acknowledge and just go through the motions when I need to. I am very forgetful at this age even hubsy laughs at me looking at how quickly I can forget things!
As I draw closer to the due date I feel like Aulia' is acting even more clingy. A has always been a mummy' girl but lately she wants even more cuddles. However she has been loving the adik in mom's tummy and I just know she is going to make such an amazing big sister.
So I am way behind on organisation and nesting! This week however (40 weeks) I finally got my butt into gear. As A is already 7 years old, everything of hers have been given away including her baby cot, clothes and toys! Idk whether this is true the second child fashion I am doing now everything is budget friendly. Instead of buying newborn cloths, I got few worn onesies from my sister. 

We moved to our new house earlier this month so I am obviously not setting up a nursery but just getting the essentials sorted for our little boy arrival. The carseat (Sparco) has been cleaned and my husband also bought a new infant carseat (Pliko). 

Today I packed most of baby and my hospital bag! I noticed I packed a lot more this time around for both of us! I hope you have enjoyed this post series on my pregnancy! The next one will be the birth of our baby boy! 😃

Saving the best for the last-Me!

Assalamualaikum w.b.t..
B's nature of work leaves me with no choice but to be independent. His work schedule knows no weekends and public holiday. But a kaki jalan I am by nature and nurture,what if it's only me and Aulia'? bring it on! Nak keluar jugak! I thought  it was impossible at first but naaa, practice makes perfect, I am so used to it already, you'll be surprised of what I can do with only one hand. Haha The skills develop naturally. From folding stroller and do groceries shopping while pushing the cart and her stroller? I have done all that. But there are time I do need hands from strangers, and kudos to Malaysians, they're helpful. And I think this is the perfect bonding time because Aulia' is with her baby sitter during the weekdays.


So there are times, I'd love to doll up, but now I have a plus one! How? I doll her up as well! luckily she's a daughter, dear God thanks for being so understanding! I am grateful! Tutu you say?! Of course! and…

DIY Dulang Hantaran Fresh Flowers

Assalamualaikum wbt..

Last week was my BIL E-day. So I was assigned by my MIL to do the 'Dulang Hantaran' and it decorations including all the goodies inside the dulang.. since this is only the engagement event, not so much personal items to be included in the dulang except for the rings.. both for merisik and engagement..
Since last time during my Nikah day, I did the DIY dulang hantaran using the artificial flowers and this time around I was thinking to do it with the fresh flowers. I purposely wanted it that way just because I can save a lot of time (since I am way too busy with my PhD study and I have to travel to and fro KL-JB) and at the same time we can avoid the hustle of keeping the dulang covered with dust in the store room. Lol..talking about experience huh!
And most importantly.. we can save a lot of money.. Lemme show you the trick..

Sending off dulang for fresh flower decorations can cost you up to RM75 to RM150 per tray excluding the items inside the dulang. Mi…

Girls trip to Sabah

Memorial weekend after I had my HSG test, Mary, Kak Ju, Nini and I got to fly down to KK to spend three blissful days hanging out with our dear friend from uni, Jessica. The five of us studied together in UPM SIX years ago so we decided a reunion was a great excuse for me to ditch the husband and my little girl and have some serious girl-time in Sabah. Lucky for us Jess is an amazing host and planned everything out perfectly.

A few of the highlights were our stay at J Residence, the upside-down house in Tamparuli, Kundasang wet market, Desa Cattle Farm Kundasang, Luanti River Kelah fish spa and Sabah tea farm.

It was so refreshing to be with old friends and enjoy my first trip to north Borneo... and I can officially declare that I have covered most of the states in Malaysia (haven't cover Labuan yet!). yipsss!

My Instagram update for this photo: Waking up to this! -Our stay at J Residence Kundasang, the view is so breathtaking :)
Enjoying my morning view:)
