It has been a whileeee since I get this going...(From Dragon to Snake to Horse to Goat Year...) Four years on the go...
Let me just sum it up all...
For those who are my friends in Facebook, should already know that I am totally blessed to have the two best men in the world in these 4 years....
1) My Hubby!
He is not the romantic type in proposing to me. Just out of a blue moon back in 29 July 2012 (two years after get together), while we were hanging around in Jusco Tebrau, he went in to Poh Kong. We were looking at the rings and he said, let's get a pair. I said alright without further thinking. The next day, he bought a bouquet of roses and surprised me after work. He asked me, will i marry him in a jokingly way, and I jokingly told him yes if he willing to take care of me. That was how we ended as a husband-and-wife.
We then as usual Chinese Traditions preparations for the marriage - pre-wedding photoshoot, ROM, guo da li and finally the actual day.
We chosed the ROM on 12-12-12 (special date) as I know he is someone who is forgetful. So this is easier for him to remember. He only needs to remember no 1 and 2 - my birthday (12-01); ROM (12-12).
Then, our actual day was on 31-01-13 (also a special date - easy to remember). Only two numbers - 1 and 3.

Hub has been a very supportive and loving guy to me. I am truly blessed to have him around, although there are times when we quarrel or disagree with each other views. However, I think I could never find someone else who can tolerate tempers and views (and no one can tolerate his as well:P)
It makes me understand that being hub and wife, there are a lot of tolerance needed. It is not about yourself or myself. It is about US, about OUR small and also extended families. It is difficult but I am truly blessed to have someone supportive, which is crucially important. Ups and downs are filled with love, laughter and also tears. I really appreciate his presence in my life.
Given another chance, I would want to know this awesome guy much earlier and spend the rest of mine with him! :)
2) Lil Jean Hau
This is my second love!
We are then blessed with a beautiful and healthy baby boy!! I went through a whole 12 hours of contraction pain before seeing him (hub used to say 16 hours, don't know why).
First trimester - this lil rascal played along with us so much even when he was that young!! I found out that was pregnant in April 2014, both hub and me was superb happy about this new member in the family. Hub was back then very tight with his work schedules, and I went for check up myself. The doctor told me that she could not see any fetus in my uterus (scares me out and I cried telling the news to hub). It was suspected ectopic preganncy!! (Being a nurse, I started to imagine all the possibilities of ectopic pregnancy, and worst of it - TAHBSO due to the rupture. I cried even more knowing all this!) Hub as usual has his six sense, was calm back then. He asked one of his friend for recommendation of good gynae around in KL as we are just back from JB. His friend recommended Dr Chuah Bee Poh in Tung Shin Hospital. Me, being a nurse, will start to search all out regarding this doctor and should I trust him. We saw Dr Chuah, indeed he is a really good O&G! I went through HCG test to check the levels, and indeed it did raise as usual pregnancy. Dr Chuah assured me that the fetal is growing during each review and it is healthy. He remarked that if it's not healthy, then it will not survive.
Trimester 2 - Smooth sailing!! :) We even went to Taipei for 10 days!! :D wheewhee
Trimester 3 - During the review, Dr Chuah said from the swab, I have GBS (Group B Streptococcus) positive. It makes me worried what will happened to baby if I deliver through vaginal. Dr Chuah then assured me that, if the water bag broke and get antibiotic within an hour, it will be alright. So, throughout after 36 weeks, I was so afraid that I will go into labour all time. I even admitted due to false alarm.
12 December 2014 - It was 40 weeks and 4 days after my due date. Dr Chuah advised for induction and I was admitted on 11 December 2014. I had two pessaries - first made my water bag broke. (It is like urinating) Then, I have another pessary as no progress from 1 cm. That night was a long one, on and off, the midwife will come and check on me and fetal heart rate. The morning came, no progress. The last induction which is dreadful - IV Syntocin at 7am. The pain was immediate; on and off. The pain is excruciating, like bones are breaking till I have to use laughing gas (no effect and makes me sleepy and tired) and IM Pethidine. Hub able to sleep at the corner when I asked him to help me to massage my back (maybe he is too tired of waiting); and goes in and out of the washroom *too anxious, maybe?* Finally, the little rascal is out at 6.15pm~
Due to prolonged second stage delivery, baby wasn't crying the moment he is out. *scares me out totally* Baby was straight taken off by Dr Bee and to the incubator; I insisted hub to follow on with baby as I am so afraid. After a while, I can hear that he started crying!! *a joy of relief*
However, baby has respiratory distress - subcostal recession and nasal flaring. He was put on O2 and incubator; along with antibiotic. He was in the hospital for 5 days; and however, he able to latch on me very well!!! To cut the story short, he is still breastfeeding until now @ 14 months!!
See how much he has grown....
