On hair issue...

I started to notice that my hair has been falling out more than usual after giving birth. There were strands on the floor, on the pillow or bed, in the shower and even around Hana's fingers and neck or sometimes on her lips, she might eat it, it freaks me out. I have read that post pregnancy hair loss is perfectly normal but i never thought it could be this worse. Yeah, it's not that i didn't experience hair fall before but mine weren't just strands, they were clumps and i hate to collect them out of the bathroom drain, picking them from the comb etc.

Without second thought I decided to have my hair cut. Short and no turning back. Since this hair fall issue really annoyed me, last Friday during lunch hour I made my way to Alamanda. I love Friday because the lunch hour is longer than usual, 12.15 to 2.45pm. Thanks to Friday prayer, we ladies can have more time to chill out. Heh. I used to go to Jantzen before, but it was packed I decided to try Hairven. I think it was better than the former and wayy comfortable because they got private room for ladies and no extra charge for it.


And so I had my hair cut short, not too short but short enough to the extend of not being able to tie my hair. Nevermind, it a lot easier cos i wear tudung and I 'm sure my hair eventually grow back. It took a bit of getting used to, tho hair loss is still a problem, but as long as it decreased the volume of falling hair, i'm happy with the result.

If it still haunting me, i'll opt for bald head...eek


babies, they are free from hair fall problem and still look good with bald head..wink


Anyone happen to face the same problem, u can read about postpartum hair loss here.

Little Update...

For quite sometime after my last entry ( Wordless Wednesday can be considered an entry,no) I didn’t feel like saying, share or express anything. Finally have time to sit down and update my little blog. Having a baby with a cough and runny nose is heartbreaking. My baby Hana got this some sort of dry cough and her incessant cough wakes her up every few minutes in a wee hour. She will cry and cough for a bit, then settle back down, only to wake up again coughing. Even after I breastfed her, everything would just come out again and we had to deal with fountains of vomit especially during the night. I tried everything to make her feel comfortable. She does not have a fever but a blocking nose and really hate it everytime hubby use that big suction bulb to get rid of the congested nostrils.

We took her to Annur Specialist on Friday to see the baby doctor and was given 3 prescriptions for cough and runny nose. Poor little Hana had to taste the yucky medicine, but no, I didnt gave her all the prescriptions. I am too worried that the medicine might harm my 3 month old baby. I dont really blame the erratic weather but possibly the apparent reason is she got it from the babysitter's house. The babysitter has a 6 month old baby with runny nose, she babysit Hana and surprisingly she took another 3 month old baby. I don't think she can handle 3 babies at one time though she try to convince me so, I'm gonna change Hana's baby sitter next month. Someone who doesn't have little baby.Yeah, I'm a fussy mother.

Pictorial update..hehe. Last Sunday I attended my cousin's son aqiqah, baby Adam Faris .My cousin's Kak ya was blessed with baby boy. Finally a boy after two girls. Some of the pics:

TODAY...

So today i turned 28...


Yeah i no longer care. At least I believe it is 28. Twenty seven was a good year, and hopefully twenty eight would be much2 better. I keep telling myself as long as i still in my twenties and the big 3,0 is still 2 years away ,I think im ok with it. I can pretend not to notice. As i grow older or should I say mature (heh) to me, whenever a birthday rolled around is a HUGE reminder of the goodness of God, that He's giving me chance to live up until this point, to get married, to have a baby and to be a mommy. As long as I still have my wonderful family and great bunch of friends all around I guess getting older is not a big deal. And with the presence of our little extension earlier this year my 28 years of life will definitely be much more colourful and challenging in a good way of cos. i'm glad to say she's now the reason that i keep on willing to learn and unfold myself into the best self that I can.

Thank God today is Friday, have a great weekend peeps..:)

Confinement Craving...

My 44 days of confinement period finally over..i'm freeee now..Well tho i didnt religiously followed the strict confinement period, pantang is still pantang. So yes, to celebrate it i decided to reward myself with something sweet. I have sweet tooth and i want to eat thing that I craved during confinement period..a macaron!. No not macaroni, macaron..;) The first time I ate these sweeties was at The Whisk@Empire sometime ago. But after tasting those to die for Laduree's macarons bought by a friend's sister before giving birth, i'm craving for more. The taste was so heavenly i wanted to pass out when i first sank my teeth on it.haha, exaggerating. Still in my hometown finishing my confinement period and of cos it is impossible to get macaron here unless u're really enthusiastic to dig for the recipe and do it on your own.

So the hunting began. I googled baking blogs that sell macarons and in my quest i successfully found it. I love internet(*wink) and immediately emailed the owner . The best part is that they can courier the macarons right to your doorstep. And I got them this morning..;)


Love the colours, they look particularly appealing.


The verdict? Yummy, the texture and the filling were just perfect and I really enjoyed the fact that it wasn't too sweet at least for me..;) For the flavors I chose Chocolate ganache,peanut, Dulce de leche and Mocca Buttercream. My parents tasted the macaron, it was good but sinfully sweet to their likings that can increase their sugar level,hehe.. Glancing at Hana, no she doesnt eat macarons, she just crazy over breast milk, I think she don't even bother if i finish the whole box myself...hehe. But not too worry, i did not eat them all in one day..

dulce de leche is my favourite flavor...

I came to know that Harrods,KLCC also sell macarons but since now i live in Putrajaya, KLCC is just too far to my reach.huhu. So if u tempted to try without having the hassle to get them outside and can wait, u can have them delivered to your house by contacting Cik Min..;)


the homemade macarons...

*Just realize Cik Min dok Bentongje, on the way ke rumah mak mertua saje..hehe.Will definitely order some more in the future.
