Year 2015 in review

I don't know why I had such a hard time writing Year 2015 in review.  I guess mainly there was nothing major that happened except that I fell pregnant and it covered most of my 2015.  So, I don't feel like repeating myself of what happened in first or second trimester.

There were ups and downs, just like always.  What I find different this year, besides being pregnant, is that people around us are kinder when they see our big stomach.  Even strangers would talk to us.  

Since it's the first pregnancy that made it so far, everything is so new to me.  Year 2015 has been a learning year.  So much to learn about cloth diapers, breastfeeding, being pregnant, labour and delivery.  Also about gynaes and what to do and what not to do.  What to eat and what not to eat.

On Christmas Day, I finally let the cat out of the bag by posting a photo of us on Facebook.  Yeah, the 8 months pregnant me.  And there were many, many likes and congratulations, etc.  I have been hiding this pregnancy pretty well.  I hardly post anything on Facebook.  Only closed friends and relatives knew about it.  But not those Facebook friends whom we never met like in ages.  But now they do.

I did fell a little depressed but I got out of it and now feeling very good inside while anticipating the little one's arrival.  There are many anxiety dreams and worries.  

Overall, the whole of year 2015, I have been surrendering most of my time to Divine.  Because there is only this much we can do, like control our food intake, etc.  But in the end, it's nature who would be taking care of everything.

I take this opportunity to wish all the readers on this blog (11-13 of you), a HAPPY NEW YEAR!  Those who are still TTC, all the best and may the force be with you.

Review: Grand Lexis vs Lexis Hibiscus at Port Dickson

I have been to both and can honestly tell you that I much preferred Lexis Hibiscus to Grand Lexis.  And here's why. Lexis Hibiscus Pros: 1. Very near to the highway. 2. Located near the beach (although very small area). 3. Food stalls located within walking distance to the hotel. 4. Better services from the staff. 5. Bigger pathway for walkers and cyclist (for those who like to do some walking and cycling). 6. Better view of the sea. 7. Swimming pool is located outside the chalet with sea view (depends where the chalet is facing). 8. Sauna is provided in the chalet. 9. Wide spread of breakfast buffet. Cons: 1. A bit more pricey. 2. Public pool is boring. 3. No kitchenette. 4. If it rains, the sound on the roof is very loud because of the material of the roof (sounds like zinc roof). 5. Toilet door is without lock.   Grand Lexis Pros: 1. Nice public pool with slides for the kids. 2. Big swimming pool inside each room. 3. Wide spread

The Big Kindy Search Continues

Since my last The Big Kindy Search post , I have been looking around for kindies and been visiting some.  Here's my feel about them all. 1) Tadika Diyana Read good reviews about this and decided to check them out, though out of our way and far from home.  I love how the price is quite ok but still a bit on the high side (you can check it out at their website). I visited the premise and I really love how it is run like a mini primary school.  It's huge, with its own hall, field and canteen, although downsize version and it's just like a school.  Not like a bungalow with rooms as classroom.   However, I have decided not to send my girl because they will be moving to Sungai Penchala (further up from TTDI, near to the Penchala Link), which will be much further from our home.  Though they do have transporters, but I feel very wary about sending my 4 year old (next year) to a transporter. What I like about Tadika Diyana is they have 2 medium, English and Chines

PPUM Pediatrics Emergency Department

Being a mom proves to be the hardest job in the world.  Accidents do happen but when they actually happened, most people will panic and unsure what to do.  And when it involves kids, and being the mother of the only child, with no prior emergency experience, this is a traumatizing and frightening episode and a lesson for me to learn. My 3.5 years old girl was being very curious and naughty that fateful day.  She stood on the chair and play with my massage oil and containers and broke one of the small glass cups and when she panicked she came down from the chair and stepped on the broken glass. She was bleeding a lot and crying.  Since this happened at about 10.30pm, my first response was to drive her to a 24-hour clinic.  So, we went to the 24-hour Mediviron clinic but was turned away by the nurses, stating that her case is very serious and need to be referred to a hospital instead. My mind at that time was running at full speed.  I wasn't sure which hospital to go as
