Birth of Harriz

Hi all,

I had been into delivery last Thursday, 9 June 2011. Gave birth to a lovely baby boy, weight at 3.5kg. A lot of difference from his elder sister which only came out at 2.7kg only. Well this past few days were a tough one. I had decided to fully breastfeed my son before he came out, and would really love to do it for his elder sister as well. But, no reason to fret about things that have passed, we need to focus on the current ones.

Well, for these past few days, had been quite an interesting and challenging one. Harriz just likes to sleep in the day and wakes up at night. At night, he would request to drink more and this is quite a challenge for me, and luckily, dear hubby is very supportive and would even stay awake when the baby is crying and tries to even soothe the baby, by cradling him every night.

But, I know that by doing so will not stop his crying. I am frustrated sometimes as the baby does not want to suckle properly, thus making me feeling painful at the nipple area.right now, I am hoping to get a lactation caunselor's help.

I hope that I can get one soon enough. Does anyone knows any in Shah Alam?.I had tried to get one here, but she seems to be busy.
 

Managers SHOULD Manage

Hi all,

Today's post is for letting out my steam from my boss. I strictly think that managers should manage and not academicians manage. Why? because we managers know what the procedures that we need to follow and how to do about it.

Academicians knows what they do best, teaching and research. Managers would try to accomodate what the academicians want and try to solve matters, but academician just know how to delegate and just inform what they want and not see the consequences of the wants. They don't even want to know what the procedure that needs to be followed and just assume that all can be done in an instant.

I would love to have a boss that would like to hear suggestions even from the staffs that are way below ranking. Currently, even what I have explained would not be given any thought as the BOSS would just assume that the procedures and regulations are being made by human and can be accessed in any way.

Huh....then what for we have terms and regulations during our services here. Come on... this is an organization with more than 20,000 staffs and we have to come out with procedures, regulations, guidelines everything in order to be able to maintain a big organization.

Dear Boss,

If you want us to not follow the regulations please be the higher authority that is the BIG BOSS of this organization then ask us to just cut through the regulations. Even the BIG BOSS is following the regulations why shouldn't we.

Oh, and another, yes I am always in front of the computer going up and down, sometimes to and fro outstation, but, I am doing the best that I can. I am doing my job, and not just  mingle around with people doing nothing unlike others. Please appreciate the staffs that you have. How can you assume that people do not do their job. It is you that is so hard to be found in the office and so hard to giveway to your subordinates.

Please respect your subordinates even though they are just cleaners but, they are human beings. You cannot expect that everyone else can do the job fast and the same day can pass to you the job. Please think of the hardship to get the information and details required. People do make mistake and they are NOT perfect. Even if you try hard enough, people won't be perfect, as that is what god had created.

Arrrgggghhhhh......Please understand that not all people could become like you a "BIONIC" woman....:P

Not in the mood

Hi all,

Just not in the mood to work today. Had been having symptoms of pregnancy this time that will only heal when the baby comes out.

My right hand right now is having soreness and it is quite difficult for me to do my work, as I am a right handed person.

For this past few days had made me thinking that working here is not worth for my life. As it is going to be a lifetime commitmen, and I am commited to family. The stressful conditions during my pregnancy, is not making life easy as well.

I know life is not a piece of cake, but, life can be meaningful and enjoyable, if you want it to be taht way. There are mai IF's right now and  not a solution that I can think of right now.

Oh well life must go on....

15th Administrators Conference 2010 in Pan Pacific KLIA

Hi all,

Had been attending the conference since yesterday afternoon. The conference basically is about the leadership preference that leaders chooses nowadays and what type of leadership that is the best to be used in todays world.

Now I know, that being a leader needs to have a lot of hard work and needs to be with your subordinates and motivate them to do the best.

There are a lot of managers but, leaders are few. And few leaders that are creative and knows how to handle their subordinates and few are still standing and be a leader.

Leaders nowadays needs to be a transformational leader that is able to be creative and motivates their subordinates to make an organization better.

So, that's a bit of the agenda that I have heard since yesterday.

Updating to you soon

Diary of the second pregnancy

Hi all,

It's already been 3 and a half months now, and the cravings that I had for now, was not as extreme as I had during the first one.

I am currently in the midst of wanting to try a hypnobirthing technique, that I have heard before and read quite sometime ago, but hadn't the chance to try and check it out.

I am trying to find an alternative to give birth the painless or less pain way. As you might know that giving birth is a task that most moms would rather not do, if they had the option to. But, I on the other hand feels that giving birth is a gift for mothers.

You can feel a life in you, which some fathers would love to have ( I think so, correct me if I'm wrong). Givng birth to my first baby was a rather painful and stressing experience. I was not prepared and was an amateur. I do not know how to hold a baby, how to breastfeed, how to rest when you have a baby.

It's still a stressing thing for me when you still think about it. But, for this second baby, I am quite ready emotionally and physically. Thinking of giving birth makes it an exciting experience for me, as I can still feel the first experience where, I am not ready to accept the changes in my life.

I am ready to accept the changes and to give birth. That's why I now am trying to know more about hypnobirthing. I have surfed in the net for the articles related to this, and found that not most of the hypnobirth users are having a painless labour.

But, this is a challenge for me as I know that being a mom, this is some of the things that you needed to do and sacrifice.

Hmmmm...had been blabberring about myself will update more soon
