Well…..I really have no idea where and how should I start.

Everything seems to happen in within a flash of light. I still remember writing the “Delay” entry on Friday afternoon with a slight contraction.

Little did I know that I’m going to meet my new born son on the very next day.

It was not an easy birth I should say. Despite the panic mode and pretty anxiety labor experience, I found myself sometimes smiling while reminiscing the precious moment. Such experience can never be bought.

I was admitted at about 3.30 am on 27/6/2009 and gave birth at 4.40 pm on the same day.  Yup, it was the longest 13 hours in my life (so far). I wasn’t really in pain for the first 5 hours. But, after my gynae broke my water bag at 8.00 am, I started to feel the pain and at 10.00 am, I got the epidural shot.

The pain was unbearable for me. Eyes popping, crying, hair pulling (oh..I pulled my husband’s hair…hehe)….you name it. I even pinched the midwife also. (Nasib baik dia banyak daging)

After getting the epidural, my husband and I took the opportunity to sleep while waiting for the doctor to say it’s time for the labor. I need to wait until my cervix fully open and at about 4.00 pm 27/6/2009, the gynae Prof PC Tan, nurses, midwife, paediatrician and not to forget my husband as well were ready for the action.

It wasn’t because of the epidural that I can’t strongly push.

I have already pushed with my almight, however perhaps due to lack of energy because I’d vomited few times earlier and I didn’t really eat anything for the past 24hours, it was kinda bit hard for my baby to get out from my womb. The paed Prof CT Lim who witnessed the crowning moment, said that my effort in pushing was pretty good, only that the baby was quite big which caused a little bit difficulty in pushing him out. But, he was not really that big as 3kg is consider as normal size.

I left my gynae with no other choice other than to help me on his end with vacuum and forceps. Poor my little baby, but he is recovering from the bruises.

I saw my husband cried silently from the beginning of the episode until he saw the baby being placed on my tummy. Both of us were too stunned to utter anything other than “oh…baby…baby, our baby” Even at the moment am typing this, I still can’t believe that I’m capable to give birth to a human. My husband seemed comatose for few seconds until I woke him up and asked him to quickly take pictures or video. Sambil kesat-kesat air mata, he quickly took out his handphone and did the needful.

I think better I stop here first. I got to sleep as it is already 2.33 am in the morning. But before that, here the best part, introducing my husband’s new partner in crime…….

DARWIS ICHIRO

(”Darwis” means warak while “Ichiro” is a Japanese name means “first son”)

So, good night from me and Ichiro

Oh, almost forgot. Today is my birthday 1/7/2009 and it’s going to be the best birthday since I got a baby as gift from god

Alhamdullilah, syukur ker hadrat ilahi, dengan izinnya saya sudah berjaya bersalin dengan selamat.

Gambar dan rentetan cerita sepenuhnya akan di update kemudian nyer

Yahoooooooo!!

Ok secara rasmi saya dah delay 1 or 2 days.

Hmmm…saya kene buat apa yeh sekarang? Gynae kata start induce 2hb7.

Ni yg malas nk induce bagai ni.

Please dun ask bila baby nk keluar…sbb saya pon tatau bila.

I syak my baby ada byk nk kene isi borang utk check out. Amik masa sikit.

Almaklum, dah duduk sedap-sedap kt dalam 40 minggu harus la byk bil tertunggak nk settle kot.

Hehehe. (lawak sengal perempuan mengandung yg nk sedapkan hati)

Adehh…sakit contraction…got to go!

I went to One Utama to watch Transformers with my husband yesterday. I was actually on alert mode jotting down every contraction while waiting for my husband to fetch me up. My husband was curious and asked what the number looks like.

I said not to worry, since it’s not that constant and it just another Braxton Hicks.

Him: Are you sure? (quickly took his kain pelikat, boxer and t-shirt and put it in my bag)

Me: Yeah, I’m 200% sure!! I’m going to be OK.

Psssst….actually I really want to watch the Transformers; even if the contraction is constant I’ll still wanna go I guess. Heeee.

So, how’s the movie?

Well, Transformers so far is the only movie that makes me feel wanna watch it more than once. Mcm tk puas tengok sekali.

Since, many of you haven’t watched the movie yet, so I’m not going to include any spoiler here. You can read my entry breezily.

However, I could say that the patrons were really pleased with Transformers, they even clapped their hands as soon as the movie end. Well, very impressive yah?

But since this movie also being watched by kids, I think they should eliminate all the inappropriate scene such as kissing on bed, seducing and sexy boobs. I think without those, Transformers definitely can still sell well. Because it’s not the boobs that we really care about…it’s the Autobot! (and ok..Decepticon jugak la, sbb tanpa robot jahat, autobot mcm sekadar robot mainan RM2 yg jual kt pasar malam)

So, Autobot roll out!!

And Optimus Prime tolong la jgn mati lagi! Tk kelakar ok!

To answer badrulz67 question via pingbox:

badrulz67: salam….saya badrul..just nak tanye sikit ttg usana  dan mims…knp dlm mims online takde usana products atau pun company itself registered

Dear badrulz67, you can’t find USANA products being listed in new edition of MIMS (hardcopy or online) anymore (That is why I didn’t include it in my entry under award/recognition/third party endorsement).

Yes, USANA used to be listed in MIMS before. However, since USANA is not a pharmaceutical products/drugs it has been withdraw from the list recently due to complain that MIMS received from pharmaceutical companies which claim USANA products is a supplement and not pharmaceutical drugs (eventho  USANA can sometimes heal better than drugs). Thus, reason of USANA being removed from MIMS list got nothing to do with its quality and potency.

Please be in mind that USANA is the only direct selling products that manage to be listed in MIMS, whereby never other (direct selling supplement) has before.

Here the image of MIMS featuring USANA products: (Quality of the image is not so good. Sorry for that)

5. I’m fat, I want to lose weight..

Sure! Good news, USANA also has its own weight management program called RESET and products that can help you to tone down your excessive baggage. Replace your regular meal with Nutrimeal & Fibergy. It will help to dull your appetite, combat hunger and can be taken along with USANA supplement to readjust your metabolisms rate.

6. Wah! How come USANA is so good can treat so many degenerative diseases? How it works actually?

Simple. It repairs damage cells. Many diseases were caused by damaged cells.

7. How our cells are damaged? And how USANA repairs them?

Free radicals are highly destructive molecules because they are missing electron, they destroy healthy molecules! A cellular nutrition like USANA will repair your damage cell by providing anti-oxidant which donates their extra electrons to neutralize free radicals.

8. What is free radical & anti-oxidant anyway? Does it got something to do with Maya Karin coffee ads?

Errrr…yeah kinda similar to that Maya Karin ads thingy. Hehe. Ok free radicals can result from our environment. They are also produced by our body in the process of burning food for energy. Well, we cannot avoid them, but we can neutralize their action. That’s it! Neutralize it by antioxidant, food particularly fruits and veggie supplies many types of antioxidants.

9. Oh yeah? I eat fruits and veggie everyday. How’s that?

Good for you dear, but do you know that even very careful eaters find it difficult to ensure they receive the range of essential vitamins, minerals and etc in their daily diet?

Here are some reasons;

• Food Choice and Habit - we don’t eat sufficiently wide in variety, often sticking to few types of food that we like. Spinach may be full of nutrients, but Popeye isn’t necessarily healthy it that’s all he eats
• Over Cooking - for the sake of taste, we boil, fry, roast and grill the goodness out of our food!
• Variation in Nutrient Content - the same food cultivated in different locations can end up containing very different nutrient profiles

Oh btw, do you know that one orange can have 5 times more nutritional value than another. So my question now……errrr which orange did you just eat?

10. Ok ok..I got your point already that USANA provide the best and complete nutrition in one pill. But other than you who says USANA is best among the best? Any recognition, award? Third party endorsement? Or doctors recommendation perhaps?

Easy peasy! Sure, it just that I have problem with space and with award should I start first…Hehe.

Ok here we go to name a few;

• Listed in Medical Professional References (The Physician’s Desk Reference - PDR) - the most widely used compilations of prescribing information for physicians in the United State

• USANA facility is designed to meet Pharmaceutical grade Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). Under US laws, supplement manufactures are only required to adhere to the same standards as food makers, but USANA voluntarily adheres to the stricter “pharmaceutical standards” which to ensure that its products are free from contaminant, raw materials are of assured potency, every tablet contains the amount of each ingredient as stated on the label and each tablet dissolves completely for absorption.

• USANA supplement ESSENTIALS ranked #1 by Comparative Guide to Nutritional Supplement 4th Edition. This book is available at MPH and Kinokuniya Book Stores. It also ranked other brand of supplements (mainly in US & Canada) such as Shakle*, Am*ay, Herb*life, 21st Cen*ury, Centru*, Life Pa* & etc based on the score. You may check score for each of the supplement and its ingredients in this book. I am not going to show other supplements score here for certain reasons. (but u can personally request it from me)

• The Brand Laureate SME’s Chapter. Best Brand Award 2007, 2008, 2009. USANA founder received Albert Einstein Award.

• Certified HALAL by Ifanca and approved by Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia (KKM)

11. I’m not sick at all. Why should I take the supplement?

Well, are sure you are not going to be sick tomorrow? Or in future. I’m not saying that by taking good supplement will suddenly turn you into immortal or superhero, but it can lower your risk of having degenerative diseases and can also increase your immune system.

There are many more actually, but the above are good enough I think. To those who follow my blog sure know that my husband is currently taking the supplement for his sinus and resdung. His condition has improve tremendously and he’s no longer taking the prescribe drugs. To my surprise, USANA did not only favor him for his sinus and resdung but also for mouth ulcer and fungal on his thigh skin. Isn’t it great?

My mom will try the supplement soon for her sakit sendi and tumit. Will update the result. I just ordered the supplement for her. Hope she can get it by next week.

I guess I’ll just end the first part of USANA entry (True Health) here. Feel free to drop comment or leave your email for further info. But, before that just wanna let you guys know that I’m not a doctor ok. Whatever I wrote here is based on my readings and research that I’ve done on the internet.

To those who interested to join under me and slowly earn some side come (which will increase gradually for sure), wait for my second entry for USANA (True Wealth)

Till then. Hehe thanks for reading such a lengthy entry.
