Confinement Over

Well, finally my confinement period is up. Actually I finished it last Monday but was too busy with Daria, that I didn't get a chance to blog about it. Alhamdulillah, confinement wasn't all THAT bad. There were some really bad days but overall, it was ok. Just thankful that it's over though.

I had a follow up session with my doctor last Tuesday to do a pap smear and discuss family planning. I wanted to be among the 1st to see her so after breastfeeding Daria, I got out of the house at about 9am. I stopped by Dania's and Dina's schools to pay their tuition fees for July then headed straight for the hospital. Fortunately I was early, I only had to wait 10 minutes before I was called in.

After doing the pap smear and small talking with the doctor, we discussed family planning. Actually my doctor asked me when I was planning for my next baby (hmmm, yeah...and we all know how I feel about that!), so I just told her that it was waaayyyy to soon to be talking about babies again. We decided to go for an IUD because I had used that before and it worked for me. I have another checkup scheduled for next month to check the status of the IUD and make sure it's staying in place.

Since my doctor's visit was short, I decided to go check out the warehouse sale over in Puchong. I wanted to see if there were any good strollers and car seats for Daria. I found this stroller at a greatly reduced price. It was still slightly higher than what I originally had planned to pay for a stroller but I figured what the hell. It was really comfortable and Daria deserves something that isn't 3rd hand anyhow. I didn't have time to check out any car seats though, hopefully hubby and I can go check them out this weekend.
Oya, here's a link to the website about the warehouse sale. They have all sorts of stuff, not just for babies. I saw some toys and children's clothes as well, going for really low prices.

I'll be going back to work in 2 weeks. NOOOOOOOOO!!! Since my maid will have her hands full with Daria, I need to find transportation for Dania to her afternoon classes. So far I haven't had any luck, mostly because the vans were already full and the buses refused to take her because our house is on a street with a dead end (the buses can't make a u-turn). I may need to hire one van to take her to school and another one to bring her back home, but that's gonna cost me double. But if that's the only choice, then I'll just have to fork out that extra cost. It's worth not having the headache of worrying about Dania.

Well, this weekend we're going to my mom's house. It's going to be a busy weekend. PTA at Dina's school plus something's up with my brother. Don't worry, it's something good which I'll update in another post. In the meantime, I need some shuteye before Daria wakes up and demands her milk.

Cheerio folks!!
