So yesterday hubby and I went out for dinner for the first time without Lyssa. Hubby’s idea. Since I was feeling really really upset and #$%^& about something, hubby decided to treat me to dinner at our favorite eatery. It’s been awhile since we went out together, just the two of us I mean. Well, in fact we’ve never went out without Lyssa ever since she came into our lives. It’s not that there’s nobody to look after her if we do want to go out alone, but it’s just that I would feel really guilty leaving her at home and I know I wouldn’t be able to enjoy myself. I thought it was just me :-)

Hubby decided to take me out to dinner after work yesterday to get my mind off of some stuff that irked me. Hmmm…it was the first time I could actually sit throughout the whole dinner and also order anything I want. Hahahaha… usually I would have to order anything that I can eat with one hand (my sister’s advise). So that I can hold Lyssa in one hand and eat with the other so that I don’t have to starve while waiting for hubby to finish eating and hold the baby. We talked, we ate, we lepak-ed, we even sat in the smoking section (yes… my hubby still smokes… bila nak berhenti? dia cakap pelan2 lah… he’s been saying that since we got together… 10 years ago… hahahahahaha… sukatilah sayang….).

Anyway…guess who was the one who panas bum-bum nak balik cepat tgk anak? Hahahahaha…yup. Hubby. After dinner sempat jugaklah pegi mothercare. Itupun sebab nak beli sippy cup untuk Lyssa. Daddylyssa picked out a pink colored one for her. Brand Mothercare. Daddylyssa tanak beli yang brand Avent tuu sebab takde warna pink (and also lagi mahal!). Hihihihihi… Daddylyssa yg choosy plak, mesti nak warna pink!

Anyway, after the stop at Mothercare tuu laju jer Daddylyssa jalan menuju ker carpark. Tak sempat pun nak tengok kiri kanan. I must go there again, I saw cute little shops that sell pretty outfits! Daddylyssa dah tak sabar2 nak balik tengok the little princess. Hahahahaha… think we’re ready for a movie date anytime soon? Hahahahaha… tak kot….

So I guess I can stori-mori about the good news since it’s now confirmed. Hubby  has been offered (and accepted) a job at one of the biggest *** company in the world. Its a senior position. The pay is ok, for now, but the perks are so great I tell you. They’re paying for him to get an additional cert under his name, without bonding. But the downside is he might have to work shifts…(just maybe). There’s also the potential that he can be posted anywhere and they have a policy where they encourage to bring along the troops (that’s us Lyssa baby!). Wifey’s future maternity bills? 75% covered! Yeayyy! And there’s also benefits for Lyssa too! And for future babies if there are any more. Anyway, can’t tell much, but for a company that deals with ** they sure have got a great BF policy. Hmm…I wonder if I can work there?

This morning the princess woke up very early tetiba and immedially meniarap. She didn’t want any milk and refused to turn to me when I tried to get her to go back to sleep by offering her some comfort nenen. Usually this works. But this morning she refused. What she did do was touch her daddy and made a lot of noise. It was like she wanted to wake him up. She pulled her daddy’s shirt. Pinched his nose. Patted his face. All the while saying aaa…aaaa…aaaa…aaaaa. I just thought she wanted to play with her daddy. Daddylyssa pun layan kejap. Lama jugaklah Lyssa refused to go back to sleep. And she would only face her daddy. Everytime I tried to get her to face me she would stiffen her body and refuse to turn to me. Hihihihihi. So I let her. It was only after a while when I dah tak mamai dah, I woke up, switched on the lights and checked her diaper…Oooooo…dia poo-poo rupanyaa….and tried to tell her daddy. Hihihihihi…good girl…kalau poo-poo wake daddy up to tell him and get him to change your diaper! Tapi shiann Lyssa…daddy tak faham…and surprisingly, your bum-bum did not stink at all so we both did not get the hint! Sorry baby… Lepas jer change diaper, trus tido balik…

Happy 6 months to my precious little princess Zaralyssa!!!

Yeay to me for reaching my target of exclusively breastfeeding her for 6 months (more or less laaa…)!! Yeay to mommylyssa!! 

Lyssa dah makan! Dan dia sangat enjoy makan. Mata bulat, mulut bukak dan setiap suap abis ditelan. Tak uwekkk kan balik pun. Sangat bersih anak mommy ni makan. Tak pakai bib pun, tapi baju tetap food-free, tapi tisu kena standby sekotak. Umminya pun mengamuk, suruh mommy beli bib ;-)

Mommylyssa tak suka sangat bila orang tanya “baby dah boleh buat apa?”. Sebab mommy tak reti apa nak jawab. Sebab lyssa seperti baby lain juga. Tido-bangun-minum susu-guling2-nangis-mandi-guling2-tido-guling2-nenen-tido. Hihihihihihi. Tapi berikut lebih kuranglah catitan mommylyssa tentang princess lyssa nii:

*Suka menjerit/mengomel dan terbaru ialah bunyi macam nak clearkan tekak. 

*Dah pandai pilih nak dukung dengan siapa. Antara mommy dan orang lain, dia pilih mommy but antara mommy dan daddy dia pilih daddy. Tapi kalau tgh mengantuk and nak nenen seharusnya mencari-cari mommy,

*Suka sangat mandi. Mesti gelak2 kalau bukak baju/socks/diaper dia. Dlm bathtub plak tak reti nak duk diam. Kaki tuu mesti splash splash.

*Kalau diberi pilihan antara softtoys atau kereta mainan she will choose the kereta mainan. She loves toy cars! But semestinya dia keluarkan lidahnya untuk merasa setiap mainan yang diberi sebelum memilih.

*Suka sangat main pampers dan bekas wetwipes. Tiap kali tukar diaper mesti bagi dia pegang satu baru boleh duk diam2. 50sen satu tuu lyssaaaa….

*Dia dah mula angkat bum-bumnya bila tgh meniarap. Tetapi hanya pandai reverse. Kedepan belum lagiiiiiii…..

*Kuat sangat berpeluh anak mommy sorang nii….

*Suka sangat main cak cak…

*Tido lasak! Baru2 nii jer mulanya. Dulu tak. Apasal ntah. 360 darjah!

*Kalau dia bangun pagi dulu, dia mesti kejutkan daddynya dgn picit muka daddy…hihihihihihi….

*Mommy belikan lyssa mainan, lyssa nak main dengan bekas mainan tuu…aiyooo…. dengan mainan tanak…

Hmmm…kalau mommy ingat lagi nanti mommy tambah!

Banyak nak cerita. Sampai tak tercerita. But one thing that I HAVE to write about is a conversation I had with one of my best friends last week. She’s preggers. The conversation goes somewhat like this…

Me: Nanti bila dah bersalin berapa lama kau nak cuti?

Her: Hmmm… bolehlah cuti 6 bulan kot…

Me: Dah duduk kat umah tuu make sure ko breastfeed laa…

Her: Tgklah camner…ko boleh lah…susu ko banyak..

Me: (in my head…waaaa…i’m shocked someone actually says this to me…if only she knew how much effort i had to put into to exclusively breastfeed my baby) There’s no such thing as susu banyak or susu sikit tau…

Her: Tau laaa…

Me: Kakak ipar ko pun tak BF ke?

Her: Dia lagi laa… family dia semua jenis yang susu sikit… anak dia pulak jenis yang minum banyaak sangat…susu dia sikit…tak cukup…

Me: There’s no such thing as susu banyak or susu sikit tau…

Her: Tau…

It’s her choice whether or not she wants to breastfeed. If I can influence her to breastfeed that’ll be great, if not, its okay. My point here is that, I actually can not believe that I would be labeled as “susu banyak”! Nak gelak pun ada jugak. I used to be her! So I understand where she’s coming from. I used to say stuff like that. I used to think like that.

But now, being on the receiving end of that statement feels a bit, annoying. It felt like she thinks I have it easy. That I’m “one of the lucky ones” whose milk just magically pours out. I wanted to make her understand that I faced many obstacles to be able to breastfeed my baby for as long as I have. It wasn’t and still isn’t easy. I had blisters on my nipples, it was sore and cracked for weeks, it bled. After it bled and dried the skin would stick to the bra/breastpad/tube top that I was wearing. Sakit ok nak bukak. Baby minum darah masa awal2 tuu normal. In the early days I had to literally grit my teeth and prepare myself for the pain every single time i breastfed the baby. And the stress of pumping milk when I got back to work, tak payah cakaplah. Baca sajer. Banyak lagi lah benda. My point is I work hard so that I am able to exclusively breastfeed my baby, its not because of the “susu banyak” theory.

Btw, if you’re reading this (now or in the future), luv you babe mmmuahhsss! Read up more pasal breastfeeding ok! Its all in the mind!
