36 days

Yes in 5 days my confinement period will be over (YESSSSS!!!!!). And does anybody know why some people choose 40 days and some say 44 days? Any significance? For the mat sallehs it’s 6 weeks, a.k.a. 42 days. Hmmm confusing.

I am so very blardy much excited to finally be able to get out! Though I have to admit I haven’t exactly been confined hahaha I did escape a few times, even got to some shopping centres during these 36 days. Hell I even drove one day, but got some bit of disbelief nags coz I got found out by MIL and FIL. I personally think they baby me too much when I don’t want to be baby-ed.

Immediate on my to-do list once free to roam the earth of KL city;

1. Buy some baby stuff (yeah I know yawn yawn what else, but the overwhelming feeling of wanting to buy the bestest goodest, doesn’t-matter-if-it’s-outrageously-expensive-as-long-as-it’s-good stuff for ur child is.. well.. overwhelming that I don’t care if I don’t get to spend on stuff for me. As long as I get to buy breast pads. Miahahaha)
2. Buy more baby stuff: bouncers, sterilizers, sling, bottles, etc. Yawn yawn.
3. Watch Spiderman 3. Yeah I know I’m late. But hey forgive me I was just done giving birth when they start showing it grrrr. Though I bet my growing ass that I shall have MAJOR separation anxiety issues (I totally can relate now Shopper Mom) even though the movie will last a mere 2 hours. But this is something I have to do as I have been neglecting the hubby a bit and well, I need need need to train myself and Ayra to be separated from each other, lest the maid will have hell when I go back to work. Though I don’t have to for another full month. Sooo fun not having to go to work *sniggers*
4. Watch Pirates 3. That shall be a separate date from the above item. 2 movies in a row will be too much separation for me I bet I shall start leaking (moms would know where ) in the midst of watching the ugly teeth of captain Jack.
5. Go to a friend’s wedding. Damn why does it feel like I have been confined for a year?? I can’t remember the last social gathering of any sort that I attended.
6. Start learning how to fold and unfold the stroller, coz we can start taking the lil kiddo out!!Wooohooo!!! Shopping malls, here we come!!

Ok that’s all I can think of for now. One thing I realized since giving birth, is that I seem to have lost my MIND. Hahahaha. I keep forgetting stuff, and I am sooo absent-minded I fear for myself. Comments from my mom when I enter the kitchen then scratch my head coz I can’t seem to remember WHY I stepped in the kitchen include, “Eh eh baru anak satu dah nyanyuk” hehehehe. U think it’s related to the whole lack of sleep?

The lil kid still hasn’t fallen into any sort of routine. I hope she will, soon. Though I think she doesn’t cry as much as she does last week. She cried almost nightly for like 2 weeks and I was worried I have a colicky baby. Well now she seemed cured and God please help me coz I am afraid of speaking too soon! On other matters, shape-wise, well the tummy’s *almost* back to it’s original shape, save for some jiggles and flab. Well actually it only looks like it’s back to the original shape when I stand up hahahaha. Though it’s MUCH flabbier. Oh well. It takes 9 months to put them on, I can’t expect to lose it all in 40 days hehehe. I need to lose another 2kg IF I wanted to get back to pre-pregnancy weight. Which, I don’t really care. I have some fuller body parts now miahahaha and well I am doing the deed of feeding another human being so I eat like a cow. The weight SHOULD show it.

I haven’t read the papers, online or offline for a good few weeks. If I do get to read them online, I never seem to finish 2 stories before I have to attend to a screaming baby. I sooo don’t know what’s going on in the world. Though I still do read blogs sometimes hehehe.

I ran out of things to say. Maybe on a last note I shall say, Look out for me World!! I’m coming back soon!!!!
