Harith's 3rd Jab on the 1st of March

On the first of March.... Harith turned 28 days... it was a Tuesday and we headed to the recently opened Klinik Kesihatan since it was really near....less than 10 minutes away by car....

first they asked me to strip harith down...all his clothes..even his diapers...and Harith was weighed... we've been weighing him at home but obviously mesti lah lari kan dgn reading kat klinik...next the nurse gave him back to me to dress..and they proceeded to measure his head circumference and  his length...

all about harith's growth:
weight : 2.62kg -> 3.3kg
head circumference : 31cm -> 33cm
length: 46cm -> 52cm

next they took blood from his heel to check his jaundice count... again...(he cried so loud that later when i went to get the test results some one approached my mum and asked yang ni ke yang nangis tadi)...kuat sungguh..

 and next they checked my weight and took my blood to check my hb level and took my bp... my weight has gone back down to pre-pregnancy weight ( - 6.3kg) but not down to my pre-marriage weight (was that too much to hope for? i guess so) so i'm still overweight (urghhhh)... and the nurse didn't say anything about my bp and hb test..so i guess normal je kot

after all the results came we went to consult the medical officer....
harith is yellow zone baby...meaning he wasn't gaining enough weight..his target weight was 3.6kg and he was 300g... well at least bukan zon merah kan... diorg suruh feed you more lah Harith......more more more... at that time you were taking about 90ml 8 times a day...tak termasuk your BF sessions......so nampaknya kena up lagi lah kan... now at day 45 you are taking 120ml still 8 times a day excluding BF sessions..

and his TSB (reading for jaundice) was 5.6 mg/dl...Alhamdulillah.... dah tak jaundice dah anak mama... for ur information kalau full term babies < 12.0mg/dl dah normal but for Harith yang preterm it has to be < 7.0 mg/dl....

and then we got the green light for you to get your second dose of Hepatitis B immunzation...next up is your DPT scheduled on the 5th of April...

Harith was sleeping when the nurse jabbed him....meraung lah kan... tp keluar je dr bilik tu...dia terus enyap and when i looked at him again dia dah tdo balik...haha....

Harith on day 30... @ ±3.3kg... 2 days after the 2nd Hep B jab
