look into my eyes and tell me, what it is you see?

At the antenatal class, the docs told us that according to research, although NEWBORN BABIES can open their eyes, their vision is very much still blurry and they can only recognize these colors:
RED, WHITE and BLACK.

Early childhood is a time of remarkable psychological, physical and social development stage. Mommies and daddies can use something called the flash cards. Flash or show these cards to the babies once a day and vocally tell them what they are looking at- to familiarize them with basic sight and sounds that are useful for their future. The flash cards can consist of alphabets, numbers or anything else that parents might find suitable for your precious little ones.

I think these may also be beneficial to mommies as... 2 bulan berpantang kat umah tu, nak buat apa lagi?! might as well teach the kid a thing or two. heh.

well, based on some samples given- what I would like to share here, are designs that I've created for my own flash cards of capital letters, small letters and numbers.. what i do is:

  • print these in color on A4 size paper 
  • Cutout each pieces.
  • And get them laminated. 

But fret not! I'm sure your local neighborhood stationary shops can offer you these services as well. 

Alhamdulillah, all tools are also made ready available at MBE (MailBoxes) Dataran Prima (+60378871088).  
So drop by if you need any help. 

hehehe sempat selit advertisement =p



"now if only my keyboard can write jawi.. hmm, there must be a way."


Anyways, everyone is welcome to use these as a guide and have fun creating your own world of bonding with your babies. Goodluck!

3D 4D Scan Malaysia

So this thingy that we're about to explore here, is something called 3D 4D scan.
I first got to know about it from me bro, Amin &Sheera as their check up is usually done in this particular format.

Googled some and found an interesting one:
http://bayi-ibu.com/3d-4d-scan-malaysia/

From there, I found out that tech- Ms. Jezzlyn, will rotate her schedule in 3 clinics in Klang Valley (Ampang, Shah Alam and Seri Kembangan if I'm not mistaken) for the convenience of her customers to do the 3D scanning of their unborn babies. In the website, I went and clicked on an icon that says ' Online Booking'. Chose the date, time and location - and an email of confirmation will be sent to me as confirmation of the appointment.





Here's  amongst the contents of the email:

sonographer either JEZZLYN or PEARLY..

weeks only! )
3D/4D Scan + Detail Scan Package : RM200
2D scan : RM50 ( only for ampang and seri kembangan area)

Suggested week for 3D/4D Scanning:

1st scan: (22-25 weeks):
See more baby movement, might scan the whole baby body, can see more
in hand and legs movement, but the baby might look skinny a bit, but
its already cute!

2nd scan: ( 26-30 weeks):
More on baby face as the baby look more cubby, but leg and hand scan
depend on the liquid enough or not....

(30-35weeks):
Harder to scan depend on air ketuban only.. The chances to take a bit
low compare to less than 30wk, but the baby will look more cubby...
if cant see the baby face, there is no charges apply, so might can
have a try....FOR Seri kembangan and AMPANG area only

These are the LIMITATION of the Scan to get a nice BABY FACE:

(1) Amniotic fluid (air ketuban) must be enough for the scan where at
least a layer of water in front of the baby face, must have a space
on top of the baby face.

(2 ) No umbilical cord (tali pusat) or placenta block on top of the
baby to get a nice view of the baby face.

(3) Baby position, baby could not be looking downward or side view.
In order to get baby full face, baby must be facing up and not facing
down or side way.

(4) fat layer of the mother tummy aso will affected the scan.... The
thicker the abdominal layer, tbe harder the penetration of the
ultrasound.



Day of appoinment : 
This is how we first saw Baby Z



and then Jazzlyn, changed the setting to 3D mode

as you can see, the umbilical cord and her feet is covering her face

we tried to wake her up and getting her to move her position a bit (by gently shaking my tummy - tapi syioknya dia tidur sampai buat tak layan je kat kita.. heh).
Finally after couple of minutes, Baby Z gerak sikit.



Her foot tetap juga in acrobat move, but Alhamdulillah, we managed to get a better picture as she moved the umbilical cord down a bit..


"Hello everyone, Assalamualaikum! Saya nak tido, sila jgn kacau.." =p

and here's one of the videos that we get to bring home, alongwith tonnes of pictures- all burned into a CD for RM100.00.
Well spent, I must say! 



InsyaAllah, we'll be seeing you soon Baby Z. 
" Ya Allah, wahai Tuhan Yang Maha Pengasih lagi Maha Penyayang, syukur di atas segala nikmat yang Kau berikan kepada kami wahai Yang Maha Berkuasa ke atas sekalian alam.  Bantulah kami, Ya Allah. Permudahkanlah segala urusan kami.. Amin Ya Rabbal Alamin "
