Completing my preparation checklist

Reaching my 38weeks.. Sedang menghitung hari.. checkup done and everything seems to be going well. The baby is in the head down position (ready for birth!) but because I don't yet have any labor signs and symptoms, so just say that insyaAllah I dah bersedia fizikal & mental untuk menerima kehadiran org baru kali ni at any time.. Kalo cakap pasal persediaan.. hmmm.. rasanya checklist utk mummy & baby dah nearly 100% completed yeay..

Slalunya org cakap bila datang baby kedua mesti parents akan recycle jer barang abg/kakak yg sedia ada.. Jimat mmg laa jimat.. tp kesian la pulak for baby baru kan.. kenapa kita x se-excited menerima kehadiran baby yg 1^st kan.. Semua benda beli baru.. pantang nmpak jer x kira online atau offline.. nafsu membeli tu memuncak jer.. hehehehe.. tp betul jugak laa.. kalo time 1st baby.. mana laa nk ada sebarang keperluan baby.. logicnya sbg mommy to be.. kerja membeli jer la kan utk lengkapkan segala keperluan.. kan.. kan..

Kalo dulu.. sbg new Umi for my lil’ precious Darwisy.. I rasa xlaa byk sgt yg I spend utk keperluan baby kot.. maybe sbb kurang ilmu & pengalaman.. budget jugak tdk begitu mengizinkan.. so preparation yg ada setakat yg perlu jer.. no luxury items yea.. But that was 5years ago.. kali ni punya experience nak menyambut my 2^nd baby rasanya sama excited mcm I nak sambut my 1^st baby.. hahaha.. semua benda I nk beli baru.. alasannya senang.. gender my 2^nd baby insyaAllah berlainan.. byk barang yg dah di letgo, disedekahkan kpd org lain, old stuff x sesuai utk menyambut org baru & necessary n necessity according to checklist yg ada di website2 tentang motherhood.

Jom tgk my preparation checklist.
