"Feeling fat lasts nine months but the joy of becoming a mom lasts forever"


Alhamdulillah. 29 weeks. Another 11 to go.


Tolong doakan saya dan budak dalam perut ya, kawan-kawan :)

OF JOHOR SPECIALIST: So yeah, I've made up my mind; Dr Hafetz Ahmad of Johor Specialist it is. Yesterday was my first visit and I have to say that I am rather impressed with the service there. Staffs and nurses semuanya were polite, helpful and they always greet you with ‘Assalamualaikum’ and a smile. The place was not too stuffy, parking was easy to find, semuanya bersih and even the pharmacist and cashier sangat cekap dan berhemah.

OF WHY I CHANGED MY GYNAE: And I like my new gynae! Yeay! Not that there was anything wrong with my previous gynae, Dr. Ng, but I decided untuk bertukar doctor hanya kerana mahu meneran in a hospital with undoubtedly better facilities (if compared to a specialist clinic that is).

OF MY NEW GYNAE: Dr. Hafetz was thorough with the ultrasound; he explained everything to me, taught me beberapa self-examination, and was very patient and informative with every question that I had. He even told me to come up with a set of questions before my next visit.

OF MUMMY & BABY: Alhamdulillah everything seems to be fine, with both mummy and baby. Mummy has gained 14 kg! Kah kah. I tak adalah makan dengan dasyatpun. Junk foods and what not tak minat, chocolate pun tak mengidam sangat, but what the heck, terlebih juga berat. Haha. Tak tahulah macam mana nak get rid of all the lemaks and berat itu nanti but yeah, jangan semakkan kepala, one thing at a time ya. Itu kita fikirkan kemudian. Ngeh.

Oh have I told you that I'm carrying a boy?! Yes, it's a boy, insyaAllah!

OF 4D SCAN: We did the 4D scan and masyaAllah, sungguh hebatnya teknologi! For those who have been asking perbezaan antara 3D scan and 4D scan, here’s what my gynae told me: In a 4D scan, we get to view the baby in a 3 dimension picture in what they call ‘real time’, as in ‘what you see is what you get’. Whereas in a 3D scan, we merely get a reconstructed still picture, i.e. beberapa gambar dikumpul and reconstructed to create one good one.

It means in 4D scan, we get to view the baby in 3 dimensional image as he moves and enables us to view the other parts of the babies in a 3 dimensional image rather than the conventional 2 dimensional black and white images. Phew that was a mouthful! Maaf if I got it wrong but this is what I gathered from Dr. Hafetz’s explanation.

OF MY 4D SCAN: The 4D scan cost me RM70, which is rather murah if compared to other places in KL dan tak perlupun ribut-ribut untuk book in advance sebab the equipment memang tersedia in Dr. Hafetz's clinic. Very convenient. Haha the capturing of the baby's face was a challenge at first, sebab the baby asyik main-main tutup buka tutup buka his face, teasing me, macam main peek-a-boo. Naughty boy. Hehe. We had to cucuk-cucuk him and geletek here and there and finally he gave in and showed his mummy his lovely little face and I almost cried out of joy.

So here’s our little boy. Subhanallah, the most perfect picture I’ve ever seen in my life. I can’t wait to hold you in my arms, my little one :) 11 weeks to go.

Baiklah. Hidung mancung okek. Handsome boy!

Insyaallah semuanya dipermudah. Tahniah (hahahaha tetiba tahniah)

yana said...

wahh comelnyee..tahniah;)

Nak tanye lah, kat johor specialist ade gynae perempuan x? Akak tau tak berapa agaknya expected cost for normal delivery and surgery kat johor specialist?

idzerqqy said...

eh, hari ahad ni nak ke JB.. ayam penyek yang kita makan ari tu dekat danga bay, kedai dia nama apa eh??

nia said...

Subhanallah...sangat comel.
Selalu baca blog, tapi kali pertama comment sebab teruja tengok gambar baby.

Insyaallah semuanya dipermudahkan.
Amin.

Ana said...

Takde maknanya Am, aku dah tanye die kate scan sajer...

To Ayin, kalau nak buat better pegi cepat. Sebab kalau dah nak dekat2 nanti takut baby dah besar sgt susah nak scan 3D. Tak nampak sgt.

Marliza Radzi said...

rin: hahaha!

Anakmami: hehe kami ke KL pula. Alamak tak ingatlah nama kedai tu. Tapi dia je rasanya jual ayam penyek kat danga bay.

Minami: ameen :) thank you!

Ana: haah 4D scan recommended from 24w to 32w kan?

Amzil Avenue Mom said...

Am,

1. Congrats! Hope its not too late! =)

2. A boy??? YEAY!

3. Good Doctor u have there... its always a good sign when your gynea told u to prepare questions ahead of time so that you could ask during the next appointment. And not to mentioned the thorough explanation. Believe me, I had a really BAD, BAD,BAD experience with the Doc back home during my short visit. And talking bout Gleaneagles. Boohoo! Doc.Hafitz does sound like most Doctors in the US, very sensitive, empathy and knows how to treat his patient.

4. Murah nye for your 4D scan. Over here the last time we checked, it cost us almost USD$250 for the basic scanning (and it goes all the way to USD$450)-which we didn't go for coz its too expensive. So, lucky u! =)

5.Will pray for your safe delivery, insya allah.

Take care AM!~

Marliza Radzi said...
