Ramblings for Today..

I can't believe my long stay at home is coming to an end. 2 months is a long time but somehow, now that it's nearly over, I know I'm going to miss being at home with the kids.

Last week I had my follow up check-up with my gynea. Fortunately, everything was ok, in fact she was amazed at how fast my body had returned to normal. She asked me if I had any plans for family planning. I told her I was considering using an IUD, as after my previous years.

"You plan to take a 3-year holiday?", she asked me.

"Well, maybe not 3 years. Maybe just a year or two."

"Why not just 3 months. Physically, you're ok, since the baby was still small. Having another baby might help you get over your remorse sooner."

I just smiled and told her that I would have to discuss this with hubby first. When I told hubby what my gynea had said, he just sighed.

"Maybe not as soon as 3 months. Maybe next year."

Part of me wants to be pregnant again. I look at other pregnant women and I envy them. However, part of me is still freaked out by the past 2 months experience. Another part of me is worried about how my work would suffer if I got pregnant again. For sure, muntah2 lagi. Hmmm....

Yesterday, we took the kids to 1U for dinner. Even though I was still suppose to be in confienment, I was bored out of my mind. So I put on my bengkung, ikat kuat2, and we headed off a little after 6pm.

The kids were excited because it had been a while since we had taken them both out anywhere. Fortunately parking was easy to find and we spent the next few hours just window shopping. There wasn't much sale going on. Hubby wanted to eat at Itallianos (sp?) so we all sat down and had the most delicious pizza ever. Even the kids ate more than their normal share.

It was just 4 hours of the 4 of us together but it was enough to make me content.

My maid was suppose to go back home for a holiday this August but she changed her mind when she called home and her mom told her to come back for good. As a result, she told her mom that she wouldn't be coming home this August or for Raya but only next year when her contract expires in July. Part of me is happy that she's staying on for another year but I wish she could stay on longer. She does her work ok and she's great with the girls. Hopefully she'll be able to talk her mom into letting her stay longer.
