Marissa at 10 months

Following on Marissa’s MRI result; Her pediatrician said it is all good! Takde lubang dah and there is no need to follow up on that anymore. Her appointment with ENT is also the same. No more follow up for her hearing. We had our last appointment with ENT on 10th of April and her graph turned out great! Alhamdulillah Alhamdulillah Alhamdulillah!

 

She is one tough cookie!

Here are some pictures of Marissa at Sentosa Villa Taiping. We were there for my brother’s nikah.

 

 

 

 

 

She is also doing great in terms of her development. Her paed said she is about a month more advance than other babies (7 months old babies.). Another Alhamdulillah for that. She is crawling now and dah pandai memanjat! So hopefully she will walk by 9 months of her calculated age.

Picture Frames.

Ini yang hubby usahakan in the last 2 days. Frames ni kitaorg dah beli 2 minggu lepas kat ikea. Susah jugak nak figure out macam mana nak gantung semua frames ni.

First skali, hubby gunting newspapers ikut size frames yang kitaorg beli. Susun on floor dulu nak tgk besar mana kitaorg nak.

Then hubby buat kotak on the wall using thread nak bg semua align well. Then lekatkan all the newspaper cutting tu.

We made adjustments on the arrangement of the frames(terbalik kan kiri dan kanan). Lepas puas hati baru kitaorg replace it with the frames!

Still tak siap lagi ni. Pictures pon x cuci lagi. Baru nsk pilih which pictures goes to which frames.

Marissa’s MRI

I forgot to update about her MRI last week. Or was it 2 weeks back?

i gave her last milk at 3.30am pastu kena puasa terus. i woke her up again at 6 am nak siap2 pegi hospital. Merengek jugak nak susu but i distracted her with toys..

Pukul 6.30am kitaorg dah gerak nak elak jem and we want to be the first in line sebab tanak bagi marissa puasa lama sgt..

Kitaorg sampai Hukm at 7 plus..terus naik ke daycare at 4 th floor. Told the nurse we came for the MRI. Nurse tu call MRI to confirm and then camna ntah ada mix up dgn her appointment. So sementara diorang nak settle kan the issue, we were given a bed.

Happy lagi marissa time ni. Then the nurse kata she will be given ubat tidur in syrup. kalau dia tak tidur lepas tu, diorang kena masukkan ubat tidur through iv line. Ubat tidur will only be given dekat MRI which is located at ground floor. Nurse bawak Marissa to another room nak cucuk kan iv line sesiap before bawak ke MRI.

Memang meraung gegila lah Marissa. Lepas tu mmg dia cranky and plus lapar lagi kan. kesian la jugak tgk dia.nasib kitaorg sampai awal.

By 8 something, nurse cakap boleh turun ke ground floor dah.. Marissa still cranky so hubby dukung her all the way. Nurse cuma tolak katil kosong je.

Sampai MRI , the nurse bagi ubat syrup tu. She was crying so hard sebab ubat tu tak sedap.hehe. But then within 2 minutes kot, terus Marissa tidur!

Ni lepas minum ubat tu. Only 1 parent je boleh masuk dalam MRI room tu so hubby went it. I came up to the daycare to wait.

Around 10am-10.30am baru diorang naik ke daycare. Hubby said everything went well but they didnt say anything about her MRI.

By the time naik ke daycare, Marissa dah start bangun tapi still drowsy lagi. The nurse surug wait for awhile before giving her milk takut muntah.

We tried giving her milk around 11.30am tapi dia muntah dengan banyaknya. so takleh la balik lagi. nurse kata kena monitor next feeding, kalau dia dah tak muntah dah kitaorg boleh balik.

Tidur dekat daddy lepas muntah.

The nurse said the result will only be obtained in 2 weeks time. They scheduled an appointment with Paeds clinic for the consulation on 25th of March.

Alhamdulillah around noon dia dah tak muntah so we went home.

25th march ni mesti Paed Marissa tanya about her vaccination again. They were a bit pushy abt it last time. 

Toys tag

Ikea punya tag memang besar2 kan… Mula-mula memang malas nak buang.. tapi suka laa Marissa makan tag toys dia.. Marissa lagi interested with the tags than the toy itself.tgk first picture tu.sibuk dok belek tag..

So in the end i cut out semua tag toys dia.. hehe..

see…some of the tags are bigger than the toys!

Marissa’s new room at 9 months

At last after 9 months Marissa lahir, baru lah siap bilik dia. Hehe. Her toys dah makin banyak and everyday nak kena kemas living room just full with her toys so we decided it is time to make her room. I let her sleep in her room during the day but she still sleeps with us at night.

We painted her room in lilac and the rest of her stuffs are in various colors! Haha colourful sangat bilik dia. I can’t take the whole picture of the room yet sebab pakai 50mm lens and the room is so tiny. Malas nak tukar lens but then you can really figure out from the picture I took,

We have moved the baby cot into her room as well. Yang lilit2 dekat baby cot Marissa tu was actually a Christmas garland. Ikea is having sale right now untuk habiskan stok diorang. That garland was on sale for rm4.90 (actual price rm24.90). Marissa loves touching it.

We bought  that colorful carpet kat pic atas from IKEA  and it is currently on sale as well. Toy yang dia tgh duduk tu dah beli lama dah. since her discharged from hospital tapi baru sekarang dia nak main dalam tu. Hehe.

These pictures below I amik yesterday:

And my favorite shot of all:

sangaaaaaat gedik! hahaha

Mudrikah & Faisal’s wedding

We went back to Ipoh last week for my cousin’s wedding. She is my other cousin; Ameen’s sister. So reception was a combined event with majlis sambut menantu.  Akad nikah for Mudrikah was done one Friday evening:

Reception was done on the next day; Saturday:

We had a blast last weekend. The weather was too hot though so I didn’t take Marissa out as much. Duduk dalam rumah ja mostly.

Marissa at 8 months

Sambil melayan Marissa harini, I took out the DSLR to take some pictures of her. Asyik amik pakai HP je, takda kenangan pulak nanti. She had an appointment with her pediatrician last Monday. Current weight is 5.2kg. Her preemie growth chart shows that she should be around 6.5kg. 1kg short but doctor said it is okay though. However, doctor was surprised on how strong Marissa is. Dia try pull Marissa and she just pulled herself up sampai terus berdiri. She said based on her calculated age: 5 months, they don’t usually do that. So i guess its a good sign.

 

She cancelled our ultrasound appointment but asked us to proceed with the MRI. That would be on 4th of March.

 

Here’s Marissa’s recent pictures.
