Sleep...Sleep... and Sleep some more...
Nawi..What's Gotten Into You..?!?!?!
Nawi has been really hyper these days... every night he's like this clown!!
Really funny kid...LOL
Nawi Forced To Love
Ever since Firdaus was born, Nawi has been interested in this baby but at times he would just get super jealous. He wouldn't let anyone pick Firdaus up at all... he'd actually cry his eyes out if we gave Firdaus any attention at all.
This time here he was in a good mood and asked if he could carry Firdaus. I let him and told him to smile... hahahhahaha... "more effort and enthusiasm please!!"
hahahaha.. can't take this kid seriously..!!
adorable though... aawwww... Firdaus, that's your Abang Nawi, he is going to be your best friend so love each other , okay ;)
Baby Firdaus.... Wake up baby...
Here's a clip which I took to send over to Rozi who's currently in UK doing her PHD. She wasn't around for Firdaus's birth which was sort of weird coz she was around for Kasyfi and Nawi's... oh well... it's ok.. we do have the internet.. ;)
Smurf Socks
Kasyfi....cheeky kid..swiped my socks right off from my feet..!!
he's so proud of himself... 
This kid is such a comedian.. :P
Reading more....
While we were spending our days in hospital I decided to read about Steve Jobs. When we finally got home I wanted to measure Firdaus and so I used the biography as a measure...hahaha...
This picture makes me laugh....LOL
3 days old... i think??
Still in RIPAS .... waiting to go home...
At least I had Firdaus to entertain me ;)
Keeping Me Company at Hospital
These three already can get quite rowdy..! Wonder how Firdaus is going to fit in...?? hehe
The Two Neneks
Here's my mum with Firdaus....
Every time she feeds a baby she remembers her time as a midwife when she was in UK. She told me there were times when she had to feed 30 crying newborns... feeding one baby is already so much work but to feed 30...OMG.. I cant imagine...!
This is Sam's mum... Just arrived from UK at this time. She got the news of Firdaus's birth while in UK and must have been excited to meet him.
Jaundice and Few Sessions of Phototherapy
Just like Kasyfi and Nawi, Firdaus had to go through phototherapy coz of his jaundice level, slightly high but not too bad.
I think the only awful thing about phototherapy is seeing the little baby having to wear the mask to cover their eyes. They must be thinking, 'what's goin on??'
I just keep telling myself 1) it has to be done, 2) it's only for a few days and 3) baby isn't going to remember a thing once it's over. So really the worrying is all in the parents head.... tough job being the adult, isn't it..?!
I like this shot of him because it makes me feel like he's enjoying the warm lights in there. He does look quite comfortable doesn't he..??Anyway, when we finally got discharged we were asked to come back in a few days to check his jaundice again. So when we came back we were asked to meet the nurses at the baby's Intensive care Unit at RIPAS. It was my first time in there. I thought Firdaus was tiny but OH NO..!! There were premature babies in that unit that were born at 5 months and they were still so under developed. I came in there feeling happy but once I laid my eyes on all the tiny tiny red babies I kind of got depressed!! seriously.. there were over 20 babies in incubators, tubes everywhere and the very premature babies were covered in bubble wrap to retain the warmth.. aarrgghh it was agonising to see. :( Many of the babies were less than 1kg, only a few hundred grams..!
When I finally got out of there, I was looking at some of the 'thank you' cards the nurses and doctors received from parents of the little babies. They do survive! I kept telling myself...yes the little tiny babies do survive.... of course I was told by the nurse that some babies don't make it, but I like to believe that most of them do... I was premature too ;)
So I left the hospital thinking, Firdaus is huge compared to those tiny little babies...2kg, basar sudah tu...lol. So now Firdaus's weight doesn't worry me too much. As long as he's feeding well and everything that's all that matters.
Few Days Old and Still Stuck in RIPAS
AAaaawwww....look at that little face...
Sometimes I can't believe I have 3 boys already!
Oh this was taken a few hours after he was born...
