Last Friday, I went for my 34-weeks checkup. Alhamdulillah…my urine test’s result was all fine. Ahkak suka sangat! pH - normal, glucose - normal, protein : -ve. Syukur sangat2. I was so worried if my glucose level still high as the last visit. My weight is 57.1kg, and the baby is 2.1kg. So far so good and I am still fasting till today, Alhamdulillah

Because of the fine result, ahkak makan tak-hengat malam tu..muhahahaha…takbleh tahan la;) AIST had a buka puasa dinner cum farewell party for the practical students, at Renaissance Hotel, Melaka. Sangat ok makanannya, variety, well presented, service ok, surau sangat bersih. Boleh makan lagi ye kat sana, boss?

Why I was so demn happy about the result?? Aaarghh….this time I have Gestational Diabetes. Sigh. FYI, this type of diabetes is occured during pregnancy only. It is believed, will be away, once you deliver the baby. Tapi, ada possibilities untuk ibu-ibu akan kena diabetes in future. Aiyakk!!

I found out about it during the last visit. The urine test showed a high level of glucose, a week before Ramadhan begin. Doc ask me to check the level of glucose in my blood pulak. So I had to do the Glucose Tolerance Test (GTT) (Kena amik darah otey, sungguh panjang jarum itu!!). The process was like this..that nite I have to fast after midnite till morning, before taking the test. A sample of your blood will be taken. After that, you will be given a drink – SANGAT MANIS GILER….1 mug penuh aku kena minum. Rasa nak muntah. Then I had to wait for 2 hours. Within this hours, you are advised to stay calm and relax and cannot eat, minum boleh. Some ppl will feel nausea, shivering and dizzy. Aku? Semua aku rasa. After 2 hours, another blood sample is taken. This time to see how your body break down the sugar. Aku terus balik selepas test tu. A few hours then, the doc personally called me to tell me the bad news. Oh ooo….:(( She explained and asked me to do another test – Blood Sugar Profile (BSP) Test where I have to check my blood sugar level for 4 times in a day!! Sangat menyusahkan tapi alhamdulilah, aku dpt setelkan dengan baik just a day before the 1st Ramadhan. Pagi puasa, 8am take the test. Doc akan cucuk hujung jari kita (dengan jarum yang sngt kecil:), then masukkan darah kat alat kecil (ada macam kertas litmus), then bacaan pun keluar . First result = 4.4 . Lepas tu, baru boleh breakfast. Then kul 12noon kena pegi lagi (before lunch), result = 3.5 3.8. Lepas tu, around 4pm, cucuk lagi..resultnya = 4.8 . Last sekali 10pm, the result was = 4.6. Yeayy!! Conclusionnya OK la and definitely I have to watch out my meals la…

SANGAT MENCABAR otey di bulan puasa ini…..!

Oh ya, another important information…the baby is GIRL !!! Husna suka, Papa suka, aku pun suka. Family aku je ngada2, frust..hehe nak baby boy pulak. Takpe..rezeki Allah. Senang woooo jaga anak pompuan ni;) Preparation ? Not yet. Belum tengok, Husna’s things that can be recycled..hehe. Aku tengah sevey nak beli breast pump apa..last time I used Avent Isis – never dissappoited me, however this time I want to buy dual pump, jimat masa, tidak membazir susu dan very practical for working moms. So frens, any suggestion for me? TQ.

Selamat beramal untuk hari-hari terakhir Ramadhan ni! =)
