I take a lot of pride in what I do for my girl and Babyfrost. A LOT OF PRIDE, lor! From the black tights for Sharleez when she was a baby to the selling of the black tights to the black rompers to baby ties to the latest, the headbands. I DARE to say I started selling all these baby items first. Simply put, I like to be different.
Therefore I get very agitated when I see what I have painstakingly started at Babyfrost being copied wholly. Is it difficult for these other so-called entrepreneurs to be different? Is it difficult to try to selling something that Babyfrost is not selling? Is it difficult to be themselves? I wonder. One thing for sure, I would not want to sell what others are already selling. It kills the thrill, you know? Of course, I cannot expect others to think like me. IRONIC hor my previous statement? :)
I cannot stop them. Its their choice.
I cannot be this affected. I have to be professional.
I can only move on. And on. And on.
After all, people do know who the real mccoy is.
Or don't they?
Oh well, as buyers they are free to choose who to shop with. We can only impress.

: 28 Weeks & Beyond. : Thursday, July 17, 2008
Okay so I cannot sleep, have nothing to do, and have been googling for anything under the sun moon for the past few hours. I think I am restless. I goggled for twins born at 28 weeks, and ended up feeling mighty depressed when I saw how tiny and fragile the preterm babies were. I showed Tatek the picture and he in response told me to stop googling for nonsense. But seriously, it is possible for me to give birth now to my twins and have them oh so tiny, hokay?! I am just so worried. After all, I've been getting rather aggressive BH contractions nowadays. Totally different from the time when I was pregnant with Sharleez. I do not recall BH contractions being THIS agonising. And do you know why I am exceptionally worried? I did not experience the regular contractions during my first pregnancy. My waterbag burst at home, I was induced and the contractions were forced to come, at thirty seconds apart. So in other words, this is like a whole new experience for me. Its almost like i am pregnant for the first time! I wish.
Now do you understand why I am THIS worried?
By the way, Tatek is so wrong.
I did not google for nonsense.
How can this be nonsense?!!
Awwwwwww!
Don't you just feel like biting them?

Will whoever it is that has been impersonating my little sister just stop!
Taken from Ili's old blog, which she went through the hassle of undeleting just to make this public announcement! This is something she needs everyone to hear:

I do not go by the email address beautifull_stranger@hotmail.com or any other stupid email addresses.

Any other profiles that you find on MySpace or Friendster going by any other email addresses are not mine. rainbowdance@hotmail.com, laixerfayre@gmail.com, beautifull_stranger@hotmail.com (what atrocious spelling!) are all NOT MINE.
I do not have any blog or any other journal save for this one. I am not going to set up a new email account. I am not going to set up a new blog. Anyone who tells you otherwise is feeding you bullshit. The information that comes from me will only be from these two channels: laixerfayre.livejournal.com and rainbowdance@gmail.com. I do not give out my phone number freely, nor do I ever approach anyone and ask to be their friend.
I have strangers coming up to me claiming we know each other when I've never seen them in all of my 20 years. I hear people saying that I've been talking to their boyfriends on MySpace when I do not even own an account. I have people saying that I'm desperate for friends, that I apparently message them on MySpace asking if they want to "go for a spin in my car." For the love of God I don't even have a driving license. Sorry to burst your bubble but I unfortunately do have a life, one that is taking much out of me at the moment but at least I am content. Content by the small circle of people whom I keep close to me everyday. I love my boyfriend Khairul Ikhmal with all my heart, and I would never do anything to hurt him. The only people I ever talk to these days are my boyfriend, my best friends and my family. I've never bothered about what goes on in other people's lives. I took the time to undelete this account just to make this public post. There are so many sick people in the cyber world and honestly I try? I really try but I just can't seem to get what your point is. I don't know what is it that people want from me but I sure as hell do not enjoy the attention which was why I deleted this journal in the first place. I've been enjoying the peace and quiet since I got rid of this and I really hope all of you can respect that and just leave me alone. With that said.. thanks and goodbye!

: 27 weeks & beyond : Tuesday, July 8, 2008
Oh my god. 90 more days left before the twins are supposedly out? So surreal, very surreal! I have a feeling it will be lesser than 90 days to go, though. I mean, if I can go all the way till the 40th week, all the better but looking at the size of my tummy and my pathetic state as of now, I am not too sure anymore. As long as I can make it past the 36th week, I am more than thankful to the one above. Insya'allah. :)
Do you know what's my main worry when I am about to deliver? Sharleez. My mind is running wild at the moment. The thought of leaving her at home is saddening. The thought of not being able to put her to sleep for a day or more is depressing. The thought of not being there for her, simply put, is unbearable! I am just so attached to her that I have to bring her everywhere I go, no matter what it takes. I guess I am not keen on the idea of leaving her in the care of somebody else yet. But ho ho ho, wait till the twins are out! The situation might just change once you have more than one kid at hand! Let's see. :)
Anyway, since I am reaching my 7th month pretty soon, I think I should seriously start buying the essentials for the twins. Lets not talk about clothes, as I have been shopping a lot for them. Nurul too! So, no more clothes for twins, please! (Hint, hint!) Clothes aside, I think I should start putting aside the cash for my checkups as I believe I will have to see my gynae every two weeks with effect from my 7th month. Each visit is about $120, hokay?! Go figure! So yes, must make a mental note to set aside the cash. Since I am on NPL, I cannot dream a minute even of using the CSC card for the time being. How sad! :(
Oh well.
This has been yet another update for you.
Now, I need to put on my support belt and wrestle with Tatek! Corny, corny. Tsk.
Sorry lah but I really feel like a wrestler whenever I put on the support belt.

: As of 6 months. : Saturday, July 5, 2008
Urgh!
The last time I had urinary tract infection was during my first pregnancy. At first I did not know there was something wrong with me when I kept going to the toilet every five minutes or so. I thought it was normal for pregnant women to keep wanting to go to the toilet. But it came to the point when I got really tired and irritated. The urine test I took during my next routine test confirmed it. There was a trace in my urine and my gynae confirmed I was having urinary tract infection. The rest is history.
And for this second pregnancy, it is back again! Woohoo! But it not as bad as the first time round, I must say. I mean, at least I do not have to go to the toilet every five minutes or so. I go to the toilet every one to two hours or so. What I really hate about having urinary tract infection besides going to the toilet part, is the TWO smelly tabs I have to swallow THREE times a day. They almost smell as good as urine, maybe thats why they are used to treat the infection. But of course I cannot afford to skip them no matter how they smell or taste like. I wish. Besides, urinary tract infection, if left untreated will increase the risk of premature labour. I definitely cannot afford to take the risk, especially since I am pregnant with twins! So yes, after swallowing a tab, I will quickly have a spoonful of ice cream to get rid of the funny taste before swallowing the second tab. Finally, another spoonful of ice cream and I am done, for the next six hours at least!
The bodyache is really something, I have not been able to sleep well for the past few days, and I know this will persist till I give birth. Nowadays, I sleep on pillows! Somehow they help to reduce the aching. And my recent investment is the Medela support belt which I have to put on right below my tummy. It helps to reduce the backache, I think. Let's wait for a couple more days and see if this support belt really works.
Meanwhile, this is me at 6 months.
And this is my precious at 18 months.
Darling, you grow up so fast, you can even eat durians now!

: Twins Update At 25 Weeks! : Thursday, June 26, 2008
Tiring.
Today started as early as 6 a.m for us. Appointment to check fetal growth of the twins ('FGC') was at 8 a.m so it was a mad rush. I had to force Sharleez to wake up. Not easy! Tatek wanted us to leave the house by 7 am actually as the morning traffic is ALWAYS crazy. We ended up leaving the house at 7.15 am instead, thanks to me. But it was not too bad as we reached KKH at 7.50 am. We had no idea that the ADC has moved to a temporary location at level 6 as the current one is undergoing renovation. So time wasted there, and we ended up reaching the temporary ADC at about 8 am. I was excited to be the first in line, but ended up being the third to be called. Tsk. So ya, I had my FGC and the nurse reconfirmed that both twins are girls. (',') During the scan, Tatek was telling Sharleez to look at the babies. Obviously the poor little girl could not find babies around her and thus, had no idea what he was talking about.
She kept exclaiming "Wheeeere?"
Alhamdullilah, the twins are growing really fine. Blood flow is normal for both. Twin A is 1 kg now while Twin B is about 0.9 kg, but my gynae said the very slight difference in the weight of the twins is not a cause for worry. So both twins weigh a total of about 1.9 kg now. Plus TWO waterbags and TWO placentas, you can imagine the load I am carrying! Don't play play hor! I am very strong!
Now that the gender of the twins has been reconfirmed, I am more at ease and can start shopping for them like crazy. Not that I've not started shopping for them but yes, now I can shop MORE for them. Sure, Sharleez's clothes can be passed down to them, but I think they deserve to have some new clothes they can call their own too. I must be fair, you know? And come on, twins look so cute when dressed alike!
There are so many things that I want to get for the twins but are still contemplating. Should I get a cot for them both to sleep in, or a co-sleeper? Will they take up too much space? Are they a waste of money? Or should they just sleep on the bed with me? This will also mean that Sharleez and the hubby will have to sleep elsewhere like on the mattress or in Sharleez's room for first few months or so. :(
I am very tempted to get this for my twins but I need to do more research and see whether they sell this co-sleeper in Singapore.
Tatek and I have also been making quite a number of trips to the Baby Hyperstore to compare and contrast the twin strollers available. Yes, we have decided that twin strollers are best for us, as compared to individual strollers. If we were to purchase the individual strollers for the twins, I will never be able to handle the twins alone. I will always need someone to follow me around with the twins. In case of an emergency when there is nobody to assist me, that spells T R O U B L E for me! So yes, twin strollers for us.
Since we are now ardent supporters of MacLaren due to so many reasons, MacLaren Triumph it shall be for the twins! We have not decided on the colour, though! Since both are girls, the colour choice should not be THAT difficult, right? :)
And yes, their names!! What shall I name my twins?
BIG HEADACHE!
Oh well.
So many things to consider and buy. I will do whatever I can, and put the rest on hold first. For now, my target is to reach my 34th week and beyond safely.
Insya'allah.

: Triple Wow! : Sunday, June 22, 2008
Wow!
At 6 months now, my tummy keeps getting bigger and bigger by the minute! Really! Daddy is especially worried and dare not imagine the size of my tummy in a few months to come. Do not imagine then, Daddy! :) So far everything is going great for me. Had a visit to the delivery suite the other day because I just did not feel right, especially after the fall two days before. They monitored the twins' heartbeat and checked to see whether I was haivng contractions. Goodness! And all I wanted in the first place was a simple scan to check that my twins were alright! Had to stay in for an hour before I was allowed to go home. I was so bothered. My hubby and daughter had to wait at the reception area for an hour lah dey! But alhamdullilah, at least I was convinced my twins were okay. The nausea is also gone, so now I can afford to have a slightly later breakfast. I've been drinking milk religiously too, though I still cannot stand the smell and taste of fresh milk. Urghh! Mak wants me to try taking birds' nest and honestly speaking, I am very tempted to try it too! But the price of birds' nest is ridiculously pricey lor. To think people are paying hundreds of dollar to drink birds' saliva. If only I could make that much money with my saliva, I could be on NPL forever! :)
Wow!
Todays marks the end of the one month June break.
Yet another whole new term come tomorrow.
Wow!
My no pay leave ('NPL') officially begins tomorrow, and will continue till my delivery.
More reasons for me to celebrate, you say?
Try being pregnant with twins first, I say.
:)
But of course you dont't have to wait till the midnight hour to shop at Studiofrost.

: I am a SAHM. : Tuesday, June 10, 2008
So many things have happened over the past few days, I do not even know where to begin. Okay let me start by saying that being a temporary stay at home mother has been wonderful. It is in fact something that I am really happy doing. The feeling of having to wake up with, play with, cook for, feed and attend to my daughter every single day is beggaring description! The time I get to spend with her is priceless. I know not every mother has the chance to do likewise. In a way, it is a blessing in disguise, the whole initial difficult phase of my pregnancy. Finally I have the chance to watch my daughter grow right in front of my own eyes. Finally I get the chance to spend quality time with my daughter anytime, anyday.
So what have we been up to?
We posed ourselves silly infront of the mirror while Daddy was at work the other day.
We played the 'Sleeping Game' in broad daylight.
We watched 'Barney Live In Concert' together.
We went to the airport to send off our previous helper, Ju.
And we even practiced catwalking in boots.
Training is still in progress for this Babyfrost's model!
Told ya it is fun being a SAHM!
Staying at home has also made me rethink the path I want to take in life. One thing for sure, it is no longer a path leading to nowhere.
I am thankful for everything that has come my way.
Even if the tummy is getting heavier.
Even if walking is already a challenge for me.
Even if my nights are now sleepless.
Even if I am No Pay Leave till my delivery.
Even if I will not get to enjoy the mid-year bonus.
I am still thankful.
NO REGRETS AT ALL!

: 22 weeks. : Monday, June 2, 2008
This is me and my twins at 22 weeks (5 months).
Very round hor the tummy? Like a beach ball.
And the really protruding navel is really disturbing me and every stranger I see, apparently! I must go do something about it. Get a navel tape or a plaster, even! One stranger even remarked that my navel looks like a doorbell! "Ding Dong!" she went repeatedly as she pressed it down.
Funny or what?!

: Auni Haniz : Sunday, June 1, 2008
So we *finally* visited Auni yesterday.
I would have visited her earlier had it not been for my SIL who was simply too busy with shootings for the past few weeks. Of course I could not visit the baby girl without my dearest SIL so the only thing left to do was to wait for her to be available. Hehe. And on top of that all , we are self-confessed STAR KARATS, what! So we had to stay true to our title.
Of course the people most excited to see and hold the fair Auni yesterday were the ones without kids (as yet). Oh, you do not have to worry for them, you know? They will get pregnant if the time is right, with God's willing. For now, let them enjoy their honeymoon period and others' babies. :)
Yesterday was, as weird as it may sound, one of our rare encounters with babies ever since Sharleez turned one. It was quite interesting to see her reaction upon seeing Auni. She caressed Auni rather roughly and showered her with loud and wet kisses. MMMUAHHH!!
Sharleez tried to hold Auni in her arms too, but turned coy and backed out at the very last minute.
And oh yesterday, someone tried looking pregnant with a min soccer ball. Very appalling, hardly appealing!
That someone also tried to 'impregnate' Aniq with the same soccer ball. Of course Aniq was smart enough to steer clear of her and the ball.
Thanks for having us, Izadd, Hana, Aniq and Auni.
What a big happy family you've got now! :)
And very soon, it will be our turn.
Insya'allah.

I have just finished eating half a tub of Cookies and Cream ice cream. I could have finished the whole tub if I wanted to, but I want to keep the other half for Tatek. And now, I am craving for Starbucks' white chocolate mocha frappacino. (Thanks, Lynn!) Oh no, I am craving for everything sweet and cold. Bad, bad mummy. Tatek is working so there is absolutely no way he could help me satisfy my craving. And it's just too bad that Nurul is in Ubin shooting or else she would have gladly offered to accompany me to Starbucks. Do not ask me to go out on my own. At this stage of my pregnancy, I do not dare to go out on my own anymore. But then again, when was the last time I went out alone? Can I say never? :)
Sharleez is having her afternoon nap right now, sleeping oh so peacefully. I am going to join that darling of mine soon. We both strictly need a goood afternoon nap every day. Aircon must be turned on, at full blast! The weather is blistering hot nowadays and its not helping that my pregnancy makes me allergic to hot weather.
Oh gosh. Two entries for today, already.
I must be THAT bored.
Eh, can someone get me one grande White Choc Mocha Frappacino please?!
@ 01:51 p.m.
: XY? : Friday, May 16, 2008
Yes, this is THE entry.
Yesterday's detailed scan did not start off very well. ADC was packed. I could not find a decent seat for the first ten minutes and had to resort to standing. The waiting time, oh my god, was terrible! So what if I had an appointment at 11 am and I came ten minutes earlier? My name was called up only at 11.50 am lah dey! That was almost an hour of waiting! We were so glad that we did not bring Sharleez along or she would have turned the whole ADC upside down! And it did not help that my stomach was growling so badly and I kept having the urge to throw up. I had missed my lunch, what do you expect? :(
So anyway, once we were in the scanning room, everything turned out for the better. Even though I had to be in the room for nearly an hour, and both Tatek and I did not understand 90% of what we were seeing from the detailed ultrasound, we did not wince even for a minute. Both of us just wanted to know the twins were growing okay and of course, we were dying to know the gender!
Okay let us backtrack a bit. During the last checkup with my gynae, he playfully predicted that one twin was a...... boy! The other twin's gender was still unknown.
But yesterday's detailed scan proved otherwise. Besides being reassured that the twins are in separate sacs with separate placentas, we were just so glad to finally find out their gender. The lady doing the scan (scanner?!!!) kept shaking my tummy to confirm and reconfirm the gender of both twins. She did that for almost ten times, I think! And she had the gender of the twins 70% confirmed.
Both twins are... GIRLS!
Hah! Based on my poll, majority of you have guessed the gender wrongly. How sad.
I am just so, so, happy.
I've always envisaged having all girls and dressing them up alike. And from the looks of it, my dream is coming true! Alhamdullilah.
But then again, anything can happen and we are well-prepared should the gender change again in future checkups.
For now, it will be Sharleez and the angels.
Sharleez's Angels!

Insya'allah.

: Bapak turned 58! : Wednesday, May 14, 2008
Phew!
For once I thought I had accidentally deleted my blog. Could not access my blog for almost the entire day and THAT drove me crazy. But I felt better when I could not access my SIL's blog too. SIL is Nurul lah! Lol! It feels really weird to be calling her SIL.
Anyway, yesterday was FIL's 58th birthday. We thought we would have a simple celebration for him since he had never celebrated his birthday before. So after the hubby was done with work, we headed over to the in-laws' to have dinner together with the auntie and family. MIL cooked her specialty dish, ayam masak merah. The expression on FIL's face when he received the gifts from us was so priceless, I tell you. It was really nice to see him so thunderstruck yet so happy. And when he was told to blow the candles, he really blew the candles with all his might! Another timeless moment! Seriously now, a little celebration for FIL was the least we could do after all that he had done for us. FIL is truly a nice person, and a very good example to all his sons. I can never see him lose his temper. I can never hear him raise his voice. That explains why my hubby is a good person too, hokay?! He takes after the father, see? Lol. All in all, we were glad we made his day yesterday. :)
Happy Belated Birthday, Bapak!
Sorry Sharleez could not keep still yesterday but we are very sure our little clown entertained you well, right? :)
Till the next entry!
Peace, no war!
Lol! How cliched.
