week 36- last week of ramadhan and acute hemorrhoid attack!

i got my second acute hemorrhoid attack during this pregnancy and it was no fun...! it's due to the effect of the enlarging uterus...despite the pain, i managed to continue fasting and settled some of the chores (like delivering the kek lapis)...i took paracetamol, increased the hemorrhoid medication, put some ice on it and sprayed some remedy on it to reduce the pain  and it was difficult for me to move around...

i got to meet my blogger friend, kak No that weekend while delivering the kek lapis to my customers...i ordered a yummy chocolate brownies from her and it was heaven...



on top of my acute hemorrhoid attack, i also suffered from gastroesophageal reflux, and i tend to vomit after sahur everything that i ate  during sahur...it was a very unpleasant feeling...however, i was still able to fast without feeling hungry that much...

my weight has dropped a little during this fasting month, but little baby was active and moving vigorously....hubby and i attended my antenatal follow up and on growth scan the femur length measurement was not of much different from the last visit..we did a detailed growth scan of the other long bones, they were growing well except for the isolated short femur and humerus which were still at around 32 weeks...otherwise, there were no other abnormalities seen...since it will be hari raya next week, my follow up will be in 2 weeks time and we are aiming for delivery if the baby is not growing as expected...

it's the last week of ramadhan and i'm tried to do my best to do as much as good deeds as possible..so far, alhamdulillah i was able to fast fully...the renovation was almost completed except for a few minor things and there were lots of cleaning up to do...

dear hubby and i went for iftar at TGIF in Alamanda in the middle of the week...i had lamb chops and onion soup and i like it so much...there were so many people in Alamanda...luckily we booked at TGIF and ordered at around 5.30 pm and got our meals just in time for iftar..



we had a big family iftar 2 days before hari raya...my nearby aunts and uncles and cousins came and we had a feast of middle east and western food with some authentic negeri sembilan dish as well  ...my sister cooked and arabic rice and i cooked my creamy chicken and mushroom pasta..my mum cooked rebung with prawn ...jihan also helped to cook the dishes as well as she cut the prunes for the moroccan chicken..





2 days before raya and we got very busy preparing for it...cleaning the house, cooking rendang and other delicacies for hari raya and i was extremely tired...the kids were excited helping out as well...hoping and praying for a happy hari raya this year and hope that i won;t go into labour on the hari raya day : ) please Allah give me the chance to eat the traditional delicacies and let my family enjoy their hari raya first before the arrival of the little ones...
