Hepatitis B 2nd dose jab

We went to JPN first to get Qash's MYKID. The receipt said we have to collect it on 30/8/2012. But, Ummi insisted on getting it today, so we did, and thank God her MYKID is already here.
Qash got is 2nd dose jab of Hepatitis B today @ Klinik Kesihatan Cameron Highlands.
Abi was the one attending her, while Ummi was busy with Qais.
She peed on Abi after he had placed her on the scale - to weigh her. Pity Abi, everybody laughed at him.
Abi said Qash cried for a while but not too long - which means she's strong.

Weight: 4.5 kg.
Length: 54.5 cm.
Head circumference: 35.6cm

At home, while Aunt Midah was massaging Ummi, 2nd day confinement massage, Qais was curious when he saw Qash's left thigh was plastered with some cotton. He pulled it out, leaving the plaster on and guess what?! Qash cried + shouted quite loud.
I felt sorry for her.

Sleeping peacefully after the jab.

Qash age = 30 days = 1 month old

Qash is officially 1 month old today.
Happy 1 month old my dear!

Will update soon.

Shopping for Raya 2012 on Raya Eve

Four of us went for Raya shopping at Jusco Station 18, Ipoh.
We bought 3 pairs of baju raya and 1 pair of shoes for Qais and Qash.
Ummi bought 2 hair scarfs.
Abi didn't get anything since he has several pairs of baju melayu.
Abi also bought some toys for Qais - a tent, a set of alphabetical mat, a collection of tiny trucks.
On the way back, we bought Domino's Pizza for breakfasting. Abi ended up breaking his fast in the car.
When we've reached Cameron, Abi quickly went to the shop to see the 'lemang' cooking progress.
Abi ended up cooking the lemang until 7 a.m on 1st Syawal with Uncle Azim, Aunt Lia and several more friends. He went back for a shower and quickly go to Tanah Rata mosque to pay Zakat Fitrah and to perform Eid-Fitr prayer.
At around 9 a.m on 19th August 2012/1st Syawal 1433H, Abi come home from the mosque. Ummi just woke up while Qais and Qash are still fast asleep.
Ummi told Abi to take a quick nap while she give a bath to both Qais and Qash.
When everyone is ready, with our new baju kurung and baju melayu complete with samping, we went to Abah Tok and Mak Tok house for Raya.
Later, they come to our house for Raya - right after they've visited Tok and Tok Wan's grave in Taman Sedia. Ummi, Qais and Qash didn't visit their grave since Abi didn't allow it.
At night, we just stayed at home enjoying some 'kuih raya' that we've taken from Arabella.

At the age of 20 days..she's 4.0 kg.

Today, JM Nurul Huda and SN Che Rozita came for the final visit. They weighted Qashrina, and she's 4.0 kg.

Qashrina is fast asleep. She's been sleeping a lot during the day and she wakes up at night.

I woke up at around 8 am today because she's already awake – poo time.

I changed her nappies and fed her. She slept for about 2 – 3 hours before she woke up again.

Qais woke up at around 10 am, and I breastfed him. He was still a bit sleepy and he slept right next to me on the black couch.

I was awaken by a loud whistling sound from the kitchen. I was shocked to see steam coming out of under the wet kitchen sink. Then I realized that I had overheated the water tank, forgetting to switch-off the water heater switch. I quickly switched if off and I let the steam escaped for a while before completely shutting – off the pipe.

I gave Qais an early bath, and right after that, to Qashrina.

Qais later went out with Abi at around 2 pm. There's only Qashrina and myself here at home.

Abi is a bit busy today. He need to re-new his MyVi roadtax, empty the car which is filled with Qais's stuff and ours, and later send it for cleaning.

I'm glad he agreed to sell the car to mom. It does lessen our burden.

Qashrina is fast asleep - wearing his brother's sleep suit.

Desa Anthurium, P-03.

Nurse Nurul Huda visited at around 4 pm today. She checked my wound and she said everything was fine. No gapping and not swollen. It's clean. She said maybe Nurse Fazillah didn't notice it because the nurse who sewed my wound uses a different kind of thread; a white one instead of black. This is due to the fact that most mothers complained about some discomfort that they felt at their private area. And maybe because of that they changed it.

She also will consult with SN Salamah about the rashes that I have. She'll pass any medication to me through a visiting nurse tomorrow.

Qashrina's jaundice is fading slowly. That's a great news.

She said Qashrina need to be weight on day 20.

There will be another nurse coming over tomorrow.

3.8 kilos at the age of 10 days.

Desa Anthurium, P-03.

Qashrina's weight is 3.8 kg. Weighted by visiting nurse, Fazillah.

She supposed to lose 10% of her birth weight, instead..she's gaining 100 grams in 10 days.

Her jaundice is still visible through her skin.. but it's slowly fading.

We were supposed to go out to the Ramadhan Bazaar, but it was raining heavily. Thus, only Abi & Qais went out. We stayed at home.

At 9.00 pm, Abi came home to change his shoes. He said, they were uncomfortable, too tight. I wanted to bring Qashrina to the shop, but the temperature was too low outside, 13 degrees. So, I've decided not to bring her out. I told Abi to bring back Qais at 12.00 am, so I could breastfeed him.

But he's already asleep and at 9.45 p.m, Abi brought him home.

Wound.. gapping?! seriously....??

It has been 9 days after giving birth to Qashrina. At 9.30 am, Fazillah – a home visiting nurse came and checked my wound. She said there's a slight gapping on my wound. I'm shocked and a bit tense because I've never experienced this kind of incident before.

But, when I went to Dewan Bersalin Hospital Cameron Highlands, the nurses said my wound is okay, no gapping, clean and is healing nicely. The stitches were about to come out on its own. Maybe that's what Fazillah meant by 'gapping'. Thanks very much to Nurse Rosimah and Wahidah for rechecking my wound. May Allah Bless You!

 Nur Qashrina Wafiyyah at the age of 8 days +, soundly asleep.

A visit to Klinik Kesihatan Cameron Highlands

1/8/2012, 12.30 p.m.

Klinik Kesihatan Cameron Highlands.

Today Qashrina is 4 days old. We brought her to the clinic for her jaundice check-up since the home visit nurses – Nurse Nurul Syima and Akma Laily said that there's a possibility that our baby is having jaundice. After testing her blood, the result is positive for jaundice but thank God that the reading is low; only 8.8. We were allowed to go home. Alhamdulillah.
