Faris 8 months 1 week

Faris can now crawl although not that fast yet but fast enough to reach the bathroom door when I am going in just for a while. He can even stand on his own in this crib by holding to the side of the crib that can be dropped down. He can stand on his knee holding his milk basket.

One thing, he really dont like to be left alone. Yesterday when we reached home I left him with his toys and he happily plays with them so I thot I can leave him to take a short bath. Not even finished with the bath he's already crying outside the bathroom door! Hmmm... I think it's a result of him being entertained by people all the time at the bbsitter's house. Faris bbsitter have 6 kids and they even take turns to play with Faris after school. So he really never left alone and he expect the same thing at home.

Nowadays he slept with us on the bed so that it's easier to breastfeed him. We can only put him in his cot once he's fast asleep. He made such a fuss before sleeping on Mon & Tue, keep crying before he settles down and slept after midnite!

I bought books last Friday 13 Feb at MPH Subang Parade, 3 books in a box by Cecelia Ahern and 4 books in a box by Judy Blume. Judy Blume books is actually for those in primary school I think, but I dont care, I've been searching for the books for a long time. I remembered that I really enjoyed reading the book when I was in SMS Muar. It was so funny. So now I am reading the one titled Tales of A Fourth Grade Nothing. Never mind the books being for small kids, I can just passed them to Faris when he's older. Before this I read P.S. I Love You also by Cecelia Ahern, and its not too bad although Sophie Kinsella is anytime better.

All about the Pregnancy that I can Remember

The first 3 months

I remember the constant headache.. sometime it makes me cry while driving back home from the office. I remember that all of a sudden I cannot eat fish, my favourite before I was pregnant.. my normal meal during lunchtime at the cafetaria would be white rice, ayam goreng, sambal belacan & kuah lemak.. I remember this one time driving back from Muar to KL, I vomitted in the car a few times and later throughout the nite.. semua keluar.. pahitnya... flat giler.. the next day terus jumpa gynae, Dr Raja Juhaidah at Columbia Asia Medical Centre altho before that we thot the visit to the gynae could wait. I remember that my big boss guessed I was pregnant because he saw me sleeping once during lunchtime (never did that before!). I remember I can sleep as early as 9pm at nite (normal sleeping time would be 12 midnite). I remember being forbidden from watching my favourite CSI series as it contained gory scenes. I remember not having the mood at all to wear make up, even lipstick.. when you're having constant headache, being pretty is the last thing on your mind.


After the 3 months

I remember the swollen feet.. I had to put a box under the working table to konon2nya lessen the swell.. doesnt realy work if you asked me. Come to think about it, the first time it got swollen was on the flight back from Italy to KL. At that time I am not even sure that I am pregnant but the period has been long overdue. Poor hubby have to help massage the feet once in a while. I remember having to eat at all times! I have to make sure that I have food in the car on the way driving to work. I have to have breakfast without fail every morning. I remember having constant back pains.. then not being able to clip the nails on the feet. I remember the first time I felt sure that Faris was kicking inside my tummy on 22 Feb 2008 at Palm Garden Hotel, Putrajaya. Maybe he did kick before that, but as it was my first pregnancy, I am not sure how it feels like. I remember not having the stamina to window shopped like the last time.. my feet got tired easily and have to keep resting every hour or so.

I will write again if I remember other things ;)
