Newly Earn Title : Working Mom
Been a week since i returned to work after a long 2 months maternity leave. Yeah, not much changes at the office, the same boss, the same staff, the same workload…arghh the same routine. But being a 2 month old new mom, i see things quite differently nowadays. More responsibility. Trying my best to settle assignments on time, to avoid staying back late, coz I MISS MY BABY SO MUCH..
But, it’s so tiring.. maybe i need a lil more time to adjust my new routine. Reaching home normally by 7pm, looking after my baby, breastfeeding him, only sleep when he sleeps, normally by 11pm.. Then have to feed him once more, normally at 3a.m, warghh.. so sleepy.. if i m lucky enuff, maybe could steal some time to gain my sleep back before the morning call, normally at 6 am.. My lack of sleep normally cause quite a headache during the day. I reallly need to tune myself to adapt with these new cycle..
But being a mom, feel like i m on top of everything.. overwhelmed and moved..

hi asma…
congrates on your newborn!!! (err.. blh kata new lg kan??)
mmg sedih bile kita start balik keja.. after 2 months, being together all the time.. tup tup nak tinggalkan baby kat org lain jaga masa kita keja.. sediihhh.. i took another 2 months unpaid leave dulu.. just to make sure Imtiaz is a lil big enuf to go to nursery.. bila mula2 hantar tu, i and baby both demam.. hehehe..
penat is another thing la.. but be strong.. take care of yourself first, then u can care for your family.. u’ll cherish your limited time with your baby…

hi asma..
welcome to the working mommie’s club! time aku start keja dulu, aku kena physically restrain myself from kejap² calling mak mertua kat umah to check on the baby.
tido, rest and free time is a thing of the past. believe me, it gets easier though! cherish the sleepless nites cos it’s the only time u’ll get ur baby all to urself!
jaga diri bebaik, have fun and enjoy motherhood!

hi asmah…i am totally agree with u. being mommy is the best thing in my life rite now..tinggal baby kejap pun x boleh…miss him so much..my amir doesn’t want the formula milk at all.still on leave ni x pe lah, x tau le bila dah start keje nnt, mesti kena determine betul2 pump breast milk..electric breast pump o manual breast pump is better/more efficient?susu aku boleh tahan gak byk…tp malas lg nak belajar2 pump sbb i’m still mobile to breastfeed my baby….breast pump apa yg bagus selain avent yg ko beli tu?ok lah… kita sama2 jd mommy yg sabar n rajin..heheheh…take care

electric breast pump ok.. tapi kena pilih yg tak menyakitkan. so far, dari apa yg aku dok baca, medela mini electric tu ramai yg kata ok. Aku beli Avent manual, sebab avent electric mahai nak mampus.. so far ok laa.. walaupun manual, time lunch break tu kejap je aku dapat penuhkan botol 4 oz tu.. plus, langsung tak sakit..
