ok, moving on from the too-hot forum…

yesterday, i started getting a little nervy after SO MANY people kept insisting i could give birth anytime, and i think it psychologically affected me coz when i was driving home, i almost felt these phantom ‘tingles’ around my waist like the onset of contractions (which turned out to be just a full bladder after all).

so last night, i thought i’d better get down to the task of packing The Bag. grrr.

(bag pon nak colour coordinate eh.)

the stash includes:

- a change of blouse and underthang (speaking of which, i just dug up my entire collection of nursing bras, last worn a whole year ago, mostly stained, stretched, and SUNGGUH tak stim),

- basic toiletries (cannot live without my proactiv cleanser ok),

- glasses and contact lens container/solution (coz i is rabun as a bat),

- mobile charger (wait my handphone battery die, how to sms you all, right?? :p),

- camera (to take pictures of EVERY SINGLE THING of course, in typical blogger mode),

- basic makeup (ya laaah, i very hiao one, what),

- my W&F organiser (to, ahem, ‘work’ while waiting in the delivery room – feeling busy businesswoman liddat lah, like reaaaal only),

- my minyak makan to gulp down before delivery (don’t ask!)…

and hmm, i know i’m missing something.

i think, socks. yeah, will need those. maybe two pairs, coz the last time when my waterbag literally exploded, the only pair i was wearing got drenched and izad had to sacrifice his.

hmm, what else.. i guess all the receipts from my visits to the doctor, for reimbursement purposes.

and rini, pls find those leftover maternity pads and breast pads you said you’d give me. you think those have expiry dates? sekali i wear, then they disintegrate or i start scratching up there and down there, how??

ok, so i will now be lugging these EVERYWHERE i go – to the office, to the shops, to the toilet… everywhere lah.

****

OH CRAP.

i forgot the most important thing…

BABY’S CLOTHES LAH DEY!

*slaps forehead*

    first of all, i so tak dapat join forum perdana yang meraih sebanyak 101 comments tu…skarang heat dah over, tak best! bila nak join forum, nak type, type halfway then tak ter-post (distracted by pretty butterfly) then lupa. so..maaf ye…ustazah raihan tidak dapat take part dalam forum perdana yang baru berlalu. next time, ustazah bukak kepak haa…awas!!

    aandd hana and rini, sorry i got had to cut call short and couldn’t call u back pasal jalaning n cakaping is so not GLAMOUR so then skarang baru balik… it’s 11pm and i think is not good time to call so we continue tomorrow or another day over, i dunno, takeaway with maternity ward ambience?

    *ahem*

    which reminds me..hana, hold HER in till 20th april laaah but if not, at least april can already! :) have a smooth, safe one k….so exciting one! see you!!

    Hi kak hana, we dunno each other personally but i’ve been an avid reader of ur blog. sumpah tak bedek! hehh.
    aniwae, i nak tanyer mcm segan but tanye je larh. a tiffany’s charm bracelet, how much does it roughly cost? if u tanak reply here, email me can? mama.ally@gmail.com. will be waiting. tanx so much n have a smoooooooooooooooooooooth delivery! hehh. =)

    -ally

    yep, hana, i agree with faizis…normally 2nd birth is easier. my 2nd came 5 days early (the first one came on the dot) n labour was quick….nasib sempat gi hospital tak terberanak dalam kereta. for my 2nd, i had labour at 10plus am, go hospital around 3plus sampai aje hospital dah dilate 10cm (itu pun I suruh midwife check cos I have strong urge to push)…kena tunggu gynae datang at 4 baru boleh push n out she came with a only a few pushes hehehe…so dramamama kelam kabut dalam maternity ward :-) the hardest part was not the pushing but trying to keep her in while waiting for my gynae.

    n some ppl also say gal is easier than boy. but my boy pun relatively easy gak, water bag break on the day he’s due :-)

    all the best!

  5. Nurul says:

    eh linda, same! i was also ordered to HOLD aniq in although dah at the brink liaooo, coz i think my doc naik mrt kot, tak sampai sampai? lol! so much for all those movies where docs and nurses tell the women to push, ni kena “DON’T PUSH!” plak. :p
    let’s hope i dun terberanak anywhere else but the hospital this time k… *bites nails*

    alamak ally, it was quite some time ago, so i dun remember how much it costs lah beb… plus, the price keeps increasing every year or so, i heard! :S kalau u turun takashimaya, just drop by their shop and tengok tengok and tanya tanya lah k… i pon nak tau brapa skarang hehe.

    sen, ko betol ke tak, you tak serik-serik eh?? baru gib birth a few mths ago! :p
    and ya lah, kan doctor dah cakap, my stomach muskle weak pasal malas exercise, tu pasal menggelebehhhh…. ah, skarang ko gi buat stomach crunches k!

    ustazah rai, i is now officially seram of Aries women, coz memang bila dorang bukak kepak, watch out world! (these include rini and esah and u lah ha haa) sooo, if i wear chastity belt and tahan this anak inside until april, i can expect a fiery personality mcm korang agaknye eh. :O
    ah, so apa ko sopping smalam? max out your $2000 limit per week tak? LOL!! ;pppp

    ogy, alah takkan kita nak copy nama Adriana! heheee… haii, still pending lah beb. otak buntu!

  12. hana says:

    thanks elijah! just sent u a mail. :) )

    orhhh, u bought a new pack of madame, lol! i think after the first week, can just use normal pads, right? and i think i asked the hospital for a pack, lantak ah, loop or no loop, asal serap… :p

    ahh mima, ni namanye Care & Share, hehe. i think it shd be ard that price lah. but i remember my friend kak nina bought hers like yonks ago, it was only $200+! so the price def kept increasing. ahh sapa nak beli, beli SKARANG jugak eh. (promote seh, dapat commission takpe jugak. hehe.)

  13. ju_ju says:

    $200+!?!? their padlock looking charms are that price the last time i checked. takpela, kalau tak belik tiffany padlock looking charms, boleh belik padlock itself from hardware store! ada banyak brand boleh pilih – yale, queen…

    Mima, i bought mine in Oct 2007 too also for $350!

  14. hana says:

    ohh u talking abt the padlock charm bracelet ehh… that one $500+ i think?? dats why the padlock itself jer dah 200+…
    i think Yale better lor. VERY BIG! can choose gold or silver kaler some more, best kan?! :D
