Waiting for delivery day makes me excited and nervous at the same time. Knowing that I’m going to have my little miracle can’t make me happier. It feels like I’m on the top of the world. Everyday, I talk to my baby, letting him know that I am always ready whenever he wants to come out. I am asking several friends about their labor condition. The answers varied. Some say it’s hurt but it’s okay, but some others say it’s very nice. I do believe that everybody has her own experience. As for me, I strongly believe that when my active labor comes, it will be very nice and comfortable.
I keep suggesting myself that my experience will be the enjoyable and comfortable one. According to my instructor at hypnobirthing training, our body resembles a computer. However, our body is a bio-computer; a live-computer. We can set the program that’s installed in our body. What we assume is what our body will feel. Therefore, if we assume that the labor is nice and comfortable, then it will be felt by our body. To sum up, keep thinking positively on what we are going to face on the labor day. Put aside worry and anxiety in our mind. Keep focusing that everything will be okay and we can endure any condition.
Besides that mental attitude, we should keep practicing our body so our endurance will be positively maintained until the delivery time comes. It’s very important for a pregnant mummy to do exercise on regular basis as it will be very useful in labor day. The well-exercised muscle is one of important key of successful delivery. Walking and swimming can be a good choice of exercise for pregnant mummy. The importance of the sufficient-healthy food intake should not be underestimated. More vegetables and fruits are highly recommended.
Pregnancy is an amazing thing and the baby that we carry withing is very priceless and precious. Nothing we can do but enjoy and be grateful of it. It really completes my nature as a woman:)
The price and value of a land in Jakarta are indisputably expensive. That’s the fact I found having more than three years lived in this city. My hubby ever did a small research on the price of land along the warung buncit and mampang street. The average price there is 11 million per meter square. The same price applies for the land located in small street (a.k.a gang) in Kebon Sirih Area. No wonder the price of boarding house in that location is soaring, even with limited facility.
Maybe because the price is expensive, land owners in Jakarta maximize the usage of the their land. Therefore they just leave a little space for yard and big portion for house. Just like the house that I am currently renting. We don’t have any yard at all. Terrace and fence, and after that is street. With such condition, I can’t dream of having small garden in front of my house and do gardening just like my mom does every weekend or just simply talking to her orchids. For her it’s a a special time after five 8 to 5 working days.
My hubby and I share the similar dream. We want to have a big-wide yard, if possible as wide as yard of my ex house in Gejayan. We know it’s impossible to have such in Jakarta as it will require lotta money. I ever suggest why not buying at Bantul, Yogya where we can find wide land at affordable cost. I imagine of having rice field surrounding our small house and open kitchen and invite friends to taste my home-cooking meals. Isn’t it lovely?? My hubby considers my idea as well, but for sure not at the nearest time.
Still related with land. Several weeks a go, my friend Ika told me that she was also interested to buy a wide land in Yogya. She figured out that the land that she and her hubby wanted was quite expensive. Therefore she asked me a favor just in case I got any info about affordable land in Kaliurang, Jogja. Once I asked why she wanted the wide one, she replied ” I want to build a free play yard for children”. Oh Ika..it’s very kind of you. At least you already have a cute house with lovely yard now:)
