[A story] Another blessing is about to come...

Assalaamu'alaikum blog readers,

Pheww... It feels like forever since the last time I wrote a blog. I'm sorry. I don't know, I feel like my writing ability doesn't come in handy when I sit on my chair, facing pile of documents to do. Sounds like a cheap excuse, huh? Yeea well, couldn't think of any cheesier pick-up line, heheh...

So anyway,

It began about 3 weeks ago, around Sept 3. I've prepared a softex in my bag just in case my period was coming. My period comes in orderly. I have around 23 - 25 days of fertile period. So usually my period always comes earlier every month, can be 5 - 7 days earlier since to the last period in the last month. On August, I had my period on the date 10th, so I should have had another period on Sept 3.

I should have had it.

But I didn't.

That monthly guest didn't come till the date showed at 10th. I started to consider whether I should buy a test pack or just wait for another week. Just be patient for 7 more days, the period might come... or not.

SAYA GALAU.

Considering I still wore those pair of wedges, hi-heels and whatever those varices-inducement footwears named, it scared the hell outta me if I really was pregnant. Could harm the fetus. So I decided to buy the test pack that night on the way home from work. This not-having-period-when-i-should-have-had-it-a-week-ago was quite stressing me out. I wasn't on a baby program because I & husband hadn't talked seriously in a short term about having another baby, although I have stopped my KB monthly injection since a year ago. No, it doesn't mean that we don't wanna add more screeching sound from a baby's mouth in our house anymore, it's just that... No serious talk before, means no plan has made regarding this baby program thing (Though actually I am ready enough to have another baby bump in my tummy ^^).

The night before I tested my urine to a test pack, I dreamt of a two-stripe result on it after plunging it to my urine. Then I woke up in the morning, Sept 11th. Feeling nervous I went to a bathroom, put my morning urine on a little plastic bottle and plunged the test pack into it.

10 seconds... 20, 30...

Oh gosh, it's coming...

40, 50...

If it shows two stripes, I'm gonna run & hug my hubby. If it's not...

60 seconds!

Here was the result...

Wednesday, Sept 11

Yes!! A wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide smile, ladies 'n gents.

Alhamdulillah.... Alhamdulillah wa syukurillaah...

Went back to the bedroom, woke up my husband & showed the test pack result.

Bismillah, Rayyan is going to have a sibling..... ^^

Be good there, nak. This nauseous phase is not pretty. But mommy's sure she can handle it. You'll see, pumpkin ^^

The fetus, 6 weeks (Sept 19th)
Btw, I'm trying to regularly check the fetus up in RSIA Tambak, Manggarai. According to many mommies in many motherhood mailing list, this hospital has good reputation in some important things for me:

1. Apply the Early latch-on
2. Breastfeed millitant obgyns, pediatricians, midwives & nurses
3. Apply the R.U.M
4. Apply the rooming-in
5. Does not promote any formula milk to newly moms
6. Affordable cost

Just like what I'm looking for. I hope this hospital is as good as what those moms talk about.

Wassalam,
G.

LYRICS

Black was the night when I did surrender
I did give in to my weakening sight
Now that I'm empty my dreams once were many
Soul's bitter cry to unleash th divine

When you think there's no way out
And all you see collides
Hope will in the end chase all your fears away

Fighting the source was not recommended
Trails of a wish were the hope to survive
skins full ablazing release crystal gazing
All of it led to a deeper demise

When you think there's no way out
And no one comprehends
Hope will show your smile again

What I left behind
Another night
Of weary dreams, unravelling
What's been left behind
Another time
Where days of late are far away
Far away

Losing my reasons,
No lies to believe in
Left the obscure to
The means of escape

Core has been shaken,
There is no more pain to break me
Time has commenced and I long to awake

When you think there's no way out
Leave everything behind
You can live your life anew

Dark days behind me
Won't ever break me now

All that I left behind
Another night
Of weary dreams, unravelling
What's been left behind
Another time
Where days of late are far away

Far away

Just another night
In another time

ILY.



Miracle does happen. I realized that I've found my miracle when I held your tiny little body for the first time, watching you cry. I know you're not mine for absolute, I just hope I could be there for you as long as I live. To hear you call "Mommy" every time you feel happy, moreover when you're down. Allah bless you, kiddo
