Tragic Saturday

I always have this crazy-worry feeling about Lil’ Anis’ safety…

What if she falls from the bed, her head knock the bedside and ada internal bleeding….? What if she wakes up in the middle of the night, put something in her mouth and choke to death…? What if someone kidnap her..? What if she falls from the 5th floor of my brother in law’s apartment…? What if…what if…..

Having all those thoughts, I’ve been very careful and always put my baby’s safety first. Never let her out of my sight. When she “tatih”, I make sure I always by her side, so I can grab her when she lost her balance. We had stopped sleeping on the katil since she started to crawl; and now my backpain is getting bad, with the pregnancy and all… I didn’t complain though... it is after all for my child’s safety.

However, seems like being very careful is not enough, you have to be EXTRA EXTRA careful when dealing with your child’s safety.

That’s what happened to me on one tragic Saturday. I was feeding her moi (bubur nasi) at my sis Muni’s house. I didn’t bring her usual feeding bowl, and rumah Muni pulak takde mangkuk plastik, so I had to use mangkuk kaca.

Lil’ Anis was standing on my left, and the bowl was on my right. My right hand was holding the spoon, the other hand was holding her when out of a sudden, she fell and smashed her face right into the bowl (I don’t know what had gone wrong because it happened so quickly but I think she was trying to grab the bowl).

When I saw the broken glass, I started to panic. I held her up and much to my surprise, I saw about one inch cut just next to her right eyes. Time tu Allah saje yg tau… Luckily Muni (she’s a doctor) was around and she immediately grabbed Anis and examined her wound. The cut was quite deep so Azmir, Muni and her husband took Anis to HUSM. I was asked to stay home….cause I was a bit hysterical...

So they went to the hospital and the doctor there put a glue to hold the wound together. If after 30 mins the wound open again, they would have to stitch the wound. After one hour, the surgical doctor inspected the wound and suggested we proceed with the stitching. Takut luka tu terbukak and lagi teruk parut nanti kalau kena jahit. We had no choice but to agree. While waiting, a second (more senior) doctor came, examined Anis and told us we don’t need to proceed with the stitching cause the glue seems enough to hold the wound. Nasib baik ada 2nd opinion. Kalau tak memang kami dah proceed ngan stitching. Kesian Anis. Dah la dia traumatic dah masa doctor pasang glue tu….

So now she’s healing perfectly. Dah takde open wound or “keruping”…Cuma ada merah2. However, we noticed that she’s a bit traumatic when we went to a clinic/ hospital for my antenatal check-up. Even when I changed her dressing pun, she cried like crazy...Sian dia. But Hubby said she was really brave on the way from my Sis’ house to the HUSM. Tak nangis sangat and sibuk tengok kereta…Cuma masa doctor treat dia, memang nangis gila la….

Now my next mission is to taruk ubat parut banyak2 kasi hilang itu parut. Right now I’m trying the BioOil, tapi my sis kata BioOil not so good. Mederna is better, tapi is it suitable for baby’s skin? Hmm...Any suggestion anyone?
