my name is Novita, born in 1983, I am Indonesian who is currently residing in Singapore. I have a loving dedicated husband and an adorable sweet little boy who's turning into two years old next March. Mostly my posts are about my experience as a wife and a mother. I am not an expert but I wish to be a blessing for someone out there who might have the same experience with me, someone who is doing research about raising her kid, or just simply to have fun reading my stories.

gastric and swollen ankle
today woke up feeling so hungry..
after having breakfast..felt uneasy..tummy upset..and soon..gastric came! :(
padahal uda bbrp bulan ngga minum mylanta, akhirnya harus minum lagi hari ini..
but after lunch, gastric fades away..thank God..
next is..my ankle!
OMG...swollen again..n i think today is the worst one..
but it's only my right ankle..left one is okay..
must be water retention! coz when i press it, i can see my thumb mark on my ankle..
yesterday i mentioned this to my gynae..he seemed abit worried..but after checking my blood pressure, he said it's normal..so no worries
but i know I must reduce my chocolate consumption..anything sweet and ice should be eliminated this week ( so sad...these two are my fave food during pregnant!)

week 38
a few updates on my wk38 check up
* blood pressure is normal
* baby head is below - ENGAGED position!! (finally...)
tapi emang uda ada feeling kalo uda engaged..soalnya kmrn pas jalan (kmrn byk banget jalan), i feel like sharp pain on my lower part of tummy..cuma 1 sec aja tp happened a few times...i know itu bukan contraction..krn sakit kontraksi kan kyk sakit mens ato mules..ini pain yg tajem2 gitu...kayaknya kepala baby tambah turun..tambah deket ke daerah V...well, thats just my prediction sih...i forgot to ask my gynae today since today no more pain..
* baby weight is...3.2KG
(OMG...!! 3.2????? last week was only 2.8..jadi dia naek 400 gram dlm 1 minggu..yg benerrr..biasanya naek sebanyak itu dalam jarak 1 bulan lohhh...apa gara2 kmrn makan buanyak bgt pas anniversary ya??? and jumat makan duren lagi....)
ngeri aja sih kalo beratnya nambah terus...susah ngeluarinnya nanti...i hope by birth, he wont exceed 3.5kg..hmm still have 2 more weeks to go...
oh ya ada cerita...kmrn ada yang nanyain..if I'm having twins!! TWINS....???!!!! coz she saw my tummy soooo bigggg.... wahh ini uda orang ke 2 loh yang nyangka aku hamil anak kembar...wahh yg bener ajjjaa..masak segede itu sih yaa...
tp erinna bilang sih kalo perutku kok lbh gede dari bbrp minggu yg lalu...
wadowwww......no wonder nowadays i feel people always stare at my tummy...kayak gak pernah liat org hamil aja..
cerita ke 2... again pas pastor kotbah..baby geraakkkk mulu....setiap minggu kyk gitu deh...begitu pastor take over the mike, kayaknya baby ini ngenalin suara pastor gitu...
i told pastor about it..he just laughed and said 'mungkin urapannya gede kali..'
hehe..well..i dunno..but that's a bit strange rite :)
he is always so active on sunday..sampe slese kebaktian...pas di food court dia masih gerak loh..
ci nawa yg iseng2 pegang perutku sampe kaget bgt coz she can also felt my baby's kick haha...
well..gitu deh update hari ini....
nitezzz

1st anniversary
08-03-09
Finally, we are here..1 year journey :)
rasanya gimana ya? .... bener2 bersyukur aja sama Tuhan...I feel so blessed...aku merasa Tuhan emang memberkati our marriage...He has blessed me with a wonderful husband... :)
ngga rugi deh nunggu lama buat PH satu ini hehehehe...i got what I had been praying for..
ngga rugi kalo dulu jomblo lama buat nunggu the right one..
ngga rugi kalo dulu didoain sama cik sien supaya gak ada yg deketin aku kalo bukan PH ku.. ^^ padahal dulu sempet kesel banget kok doanya begitu...soalnya jd sempet kesepian bangettt hehehe
yah walau setaon ini banyak tantangan..tapi aku bersyukur tantangan itu bisa dilewatin ber2...he's really a good husband, a partner and a best friend to me..
kesan2 slm setaon ini...hmmm I enjoy my marriage life...it's a new life for me but i love it!
walau banyak org bilang taon2 pertama perlu banyak penyesuaian...bakal sering nemuin ketidakcocokan dll...tapi kita malah merasa setelah married, malah jadi jarang berantem...masih sangat lebih sering waktu pacaran dulu hehe..mungkin penyesuaiannya pas masa pacaran yah..
we enjoy being just the 2 of us..at home..that's the reason kita belom mau sewain kamar kita (though udah ada rencana dari dulu..cuma ngga pernah jadi)...
my prayer is..supaya hari2 ke depan..both of us jadi tmbh bersatu..sehati,sepikir :) ...walau ada tantangan baru -- our baby :) kita sama2 ngga tau gimana parenting itu..but we promise ourselves bakal jaga hubungan yang setaon kemaren ini udah baik..ngga mau keadaan berubah...maunya improve dong...^^ (inget nasehat pastor pas counselling dulu..bahwa pasangan kita hrs tetep jadi prioritas, bukan anak...soalnya anak cm tinggal sama kita sampe dia married, stlh itu masa2 tua kita spend with our spouse..krn itu jaga hubungan suami-istri itu penting!)
anyway...I got a nice flower today..and we had a nice dinner at marche..our fave is ROSTI!! :)
I've been craving for marche dari dulu..akhirnya kesampean juga...
dan seharian makan terus jadi kuenyangg bangettt....had fried rice for lunch (enak loh..fried rice nya thailand stall di meridien) trus lanjut waffle-nya max brenner baru malemnya dinner di marche...
well..thank you for today, honey....
happy anniversary :)
(we have the best gift for our 1st anniversary: our baby!!)

dreams
tiga hari ini mimpi-nya aneh banget...seakan mimpinya itu real bangett...
mimpi pertama...tiba-tiba ci lina ngabarin kalo trip ke israel is ON again..berangkat tgl 15-26 maret dan ini gak bisa di cancel lg since yg lalu uda postpone..wahh aku kaget banget..soalnya itu kan tgl menjelang EDD-ku..masak aku ditinggal suami sendirian...huaaa...
trus aku coba ngomong ke ci lina bisa gak diatur lg waktunya...trus ci lina bilang oh ya uda utk santo aku coba minta tiket return nya tgl 20 maret (dalam hati: haa 20 maret...ngga ngefek sihh tetep aja deg2an..)...trus setelah ci lina make calls...in the end malah jadinya tgl 20 n 26 gak ada tiket..jd smua hrs balik sgp tgl 27 (malah lbh telatttt)...
trus aku jadi panik banget deh di mimpi... :( pokoknya tidurku jd gelisah bgt seingetku...
mimpi ke-2...kemaren siang pas take a nap..sblm tidur emang ada telp, my dad lg di supermarket...dia tanya mau titip apa aja buat dibawa ke sgp..
trus pas tidur kok malah kebawa mimpi...tiba2 aja my parents uda dateng di sgp bawa smua titipanku...trus aku mikir..oh pantesan td my dad telp tanya mau titip apa (aneh ya di mimpi bisa inget kejadian sebelom tidur tadi)...trus mrk bilang emang sengaja dtg sekarang krn kayaknya dlm bbrp hari ini mau lahiran kan...(huee....pdhl blm ada tanda apa2)
mimpi ke-3.. (tadi malem)...yg ini gak gt inget ceritanya..pokoknya aku dah gendong baby gitu...hehehe...
i guess..krn EDD is getting near jd kebawa pikiran sampe mimpi ya..
semalem nongkrong sejam-an di kamar baby, buka2 buku2 manual sterilizer,bottle warmer n smua brg elektrik yg perlu dipelajari lg pemakaiannya...takutnya pas buru2 mau pake, ngga tau mesti gmn dulu hehe..this all new to me kan..
and dah 2 malem ini bobo di kamar baby ama hubby jg...walau blm ada baby, tp kalo masuk kamarnya berasa aromanya beda...hehe mungkin bau baju2 baby yg br dicuci..kan bau detergentnya lembut gt...^^
so...19 more days nih...countinggg...!!!

what will I miss....???
another exactly 20 days to my EDD...
I realize this is the time to treasure...coz when baby comes, I'll get busy and will be missing a few things during my preggie life...
SO here's the lists of things I'm gonna miss...
1. taking a good nap
2. sleep thru the nite (thank God i never have sleeping problem during pregnancy!)
3. take my time cleaning the house or do other houseworks without rushing
4. surfing the net for hours, FB-ing, Playing pet society
5. going out with hubby/friends on weekdays (used to do it 3-4 times a week)
6. watching movies!!!! ---> impossible to bring baby inside cinema...kalo dinner masih mungkin utk dibawa but not watching movie rite..
7. No worries if i end up eating alot in a day..or having supper though I just had my dinner..
8. my reading time (novels,books,magz...)
9. blogging anytime I feel like writing..
10. going to gen next,church,works without any difficulties..(no strollers to push, no baby's bag to carry, no need to think of how much milk i should prepare, or...can i leave the baby alone with hubby if i need to do my work?)
heee.....so these are the lists...(so far) that I can think about...yeaa so i'm gonna miss these things..but I know it's not forever...there'll be a time when I can enjoy these moments back..but for now...let's enjoy the days while waiting for another excitement and challenge that soon will come in my life :)

the official week: week 37
this is the official week - my week 37 - called official because even if my EDD is still the next 3 weeks, but if i happen to give birth by this week onwards..it wont be considered as premature.
summary of gynae check up today:
1. baby head is below, tho not engaged yet
2. baby weight is 2.88kg which is good and normal
3. my due date is 24th March based on detailed scan on my week 20 (so it's not 25th, that was the date dr adrian gave me on my 1st check up..but it seems that he follows the detailed scan at Thomson)
4. Dr.adrian already passed me an admission letter (without this letter, hospital wont accept me). He said that in case my water broke, quickly come to hospital.
5. complained about stretchmarks that lately been showing below my belly...ci jeanny n ci esther said it's normal to show up during 7th month onwards...it'll be gone after giving birth..(kata mereka sih strechmarks yg susah hilang itu yg muncul sejak bulan2 awal kehamilan..kalo yg muncul pas bulan akhir sih bisa hilang..coz itu muncul krn kulit kita uda ketarik sampe maximum due to baby growth inside tummy)..but my complaint is becoz the SM getting itchy..very itchy, in fact!! so doctor gave me some cream to apply (to my surprise, he gave it for free..yayy!!hehe)
6. already paid for gynae's delivery fee...wuiihhh bener2 terasa kalo anytime from now i can give birth hehe...bentar lagi nihhh....penasaran bgt, bakal maju gak ya date-nya...who knows i might give birth next week??or next 2 weeks??? ^^
