Thanksgiving

Thanks Giving for 2011...


Thanksgiving Day is a holiday celebrated primarily in the United States and Canada. Thanksgiving is celebrated each year on the second Monday of October in Canada and on the fourth Thursday of November in the United States Thanksgiving in North America had originated from a mix of European and Native traditions.Typically in Europe, festivals were held before and after the harvest cycles to give thanks for a good harvest, and to rejoice together after much hard work with the rest of the community.(Courtesy Wikipedia)


Thanks Giving may be celebrated for the above reason but, i am writing this blog as dedication for all who helped and supported me to make my 2011 a wonderful year   


First and Foremost 
i should thank God for giving me such a wonderful year with lot of memories. God never need appreciation or even won't whine Monica didn't appreciate me for the blessings which i have shown to her :) Still God I am thanking u for all the fortunes and blessings. Hope u will show the same to me for the coming year as well.


It'z bit difficult to set the priority list who has been more supportive and helpful..


Now My Daksh'u is my priority, so shall i thank him first.
He'z the one who made my year so memorable. He'z the one who always brings smile to my face irrespective of what ever frustration or tension i'm going thru. Daksh'u I love u a lot and thanks for being born as my son :)


Next is my hubby Deepak Asok  for being supportive all thru the years since he tie the magical knot :)It has been long (not that long) 3 years since we started our journey .This year was so special for both of us because of our son Daksh'u birth. The journey from the day i conceived till his birth was not at all easy with a job in hand. But he accompanied and supported me all through the journey  by all ways he can whether its cooking washing being awake all thru the night.With out u this won't be that easy. Thank u for being with me :)
 In Quotes :
 " Expect the same in coming  years too"  hehheeh (Wink Wink)


Yes ofcourse i should thank my parents and in laws but before that i should say thank u to some one else.


That's Dr Mukundan - yes hez the gynecologist @ Lifeline hospital AbuDhabi. I never seen a Dr with such an attitude n fun :)
For every visit there will be something funny for being remembered.


I can quote a few :
I was having severe vomiting so during one of my visit i was saying .Doctor the vomiting is so worse i cannot withstand it..there is always bad taste in my mouth so i can't eat well. He will hear my whole sad story emphatically and at last i will ask Dr what will i do ? He will reply very casually dear nothing can be done its all part of the game. I will be expecting from his empathetic facial expression that he too is sad for my condition and is gonna prescribe some medicine. 


In another visit Dr i'm not able to sleep well i'm awake all through the night ..Now also he has the same empathetic face.
For that problem he came up with a solution. Pointing my husband who was sitting next to me ask this guy or make this guy also to be awake with u :) I was like ohh!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Next visit Dr I am so tired after being back from office towards the end of the day i am so tired.Same empathetic face at end replies pointing my husband again Tell this guy "Either i can go for job or else can deliver your baby .I cannot handle the 2 jobs simultaneously". 



Yah he always take things lightly ,so that I... From my initial visit till i am out of operation theater i too was cool :)


I really feel the diff between him and a gynecologist (Lady) in India when I visited one in India. There they are so rude as of they don't have any interest in treating us....


Dr Mukundan thanks for ur support and guidance and may god bless your hands to bring so many li'l ones to this beautiful world :)  


Next My Parents and In Laws. Irrespective of their age and health condition they came to UAE for my delivery and other post delivery service's :)(Service's don't know whether its the right word to be used when it comes to relationship:) ).I should thank my Mom. There is no replacement for Mother. Whatever we may be in life whether as a child , student, wife/husband, mother/father of a child , for her we are still the small lil girl/boy who crib for small needs, who always walks behind her for getting things done,I should say My Amma is a Gem of a Person. Don't know how a lady can sacrifice like this with out any complaints..I love u Amma :) May be i can make her a role model to learn how a mother should be..Even though i cannot be like her totally still i will make a try.


I thank my Mother-in -Law n Father-In-Law for their effort in searching n finding name for my lil one.N my Mother In Law  only  insisted me to name my lil one as Daksh :)


I should thank my Deepu and Divyu  for being so supportive all through and for finding time to be to here for spending time with my Daksh'u with in their busy schedules n work :)


Last but not the least All My Friends ,Colleagues ,Managers n even Management who have been so supportive. Even they didn't express much through words still their actions were so supportive so that i was able to manage my job even at the toughest time with my worst health conditions. 


I might have missed so many names in this post but it doesn't mean that i'm not thankful to them..Even tough itz not that loud but still i'm thankful to each one of you


I am loving 2011 and i am looking forward for an even more beautiful year 2012.


Wish you all a happy prosperous writers block free n gorgeous New Year with lots of great happening in your life :) 

Mummy Returns

I am back after a longgggggggggggg break..Yah almost  break of an year my last post was by Jan 10 2011 now itz Dec 05 2011.. In my last post i hinted about one great change which will happen in my life in 2011..Yah that happened.. I am a MOTHER now.. Mother of 4 month old baby n hezz Daksh :)

 A Briefing of 2011..

By End of 2010 ,Dec 8th exactly it was told by my Doctor that I am pregnant..The wonderful news I have ever heard in my lifetime. But things were not that wonderful n fair as i thought of being a pregnant women.
From the initial month itself i started with the regular chore of Morning Sickness..Yuck i hate it :(
I being a food lover started hating food. Non vegetarian food become my enemyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!

From December 8th 2010 Till August 3rd 2011 it a was Long N Hectic journey still i am loving it.

The first question to a married couple after a couple of months is is the any Good News?

I took almost 2 years to give the good news to my loved ones....

All that happened between the three trimesters are flashing through my mind..but still i don't know whether i will be able to express it in the same intensity ,still i will make a try for that.

After 4 weeks of this news, i was asked by the doctor to come for my initial scan...
That was the first time i was seeing my babies heart beat..That's a great feeling..a small heart is beating Dum Dum ...I asked the doctor to show that to my husband too.. He was lil scared to see that..But after that till his birth my husband never came to the Scanning Room :)

Since nobody was around to take care of me or to clear my doubts and agonies during  pregnacy  the first thing i did was registering to Babycenter where i get the weekly updates of my growing baby. Saturday i used to receive the mails or updates from Babycenter. I was seeing my baby growing from the size of a poppy seed till Pumpkin size.40 Weeks of waiting..Babycenter was my stepmother during pregnancy.I totally believed the updates and mails which I got from the site..

From the first trimester till the last trimester the one thing which was accompanying me was Vomiting and Food Aversion :)

Each and everyday became hectic. All morning I had same routines ans same kind of break fast Idly Dosa or Putt(Steam Cake ;) I think my lil one will never like these things because he might be bored because of the  same menu. My colleagues in quotes "Not Ladies"  they used to cook food for me for the lunch with varieties of dishes and make me eat.

Each day some veggie poriyals will be there and they will explain me what that vegetable is gonna supplement to my baby


Carrot : Is good for babies eyes.
Beetroot : Will give color for my baby.
Ladies Finger : Will make my baby good at Mathematics.
Tomatoes : Rich in Calcium.
Dhal: Which will supplement proteins to my baby
Curd Rice: Which will supplement calcium..

Dinner will be cooked by me..But initial and final part will be taken care by my hubby..He will cut vegetables , wash all the plates and cookwares before and after food and  even serve food.The one thing i did was just put these veggies into a pan and add some masalas. If that can be called as cooking ,If yes... Yeah I did cooking :)

Night sleep was always a nightmare for me..Literally sleepless night not only for me for better half too..because i never allowed him to sleep when i was awake..Really thankful to him for all his support during this 10 months.

Even i didn't eat much i gained much..I gained almost 13 kgs during these three trimesters and  was looking horrible during my last trimester.My friends were not able to recognize me...My parents who came for my delivery was shocked me to see

                                                  Pre Delivery               Post Delivery

Now i think every one is convinced Shocked right? hehhehe..

By end of third trimester Swollen Legs and Nose,Big Tummy,Tanned Skin,Hard to Breathe,Food Aversion,Sleepless Nights...

The dates on the calender which was kept on my office table is all stricken. With all these health issues I somehow managed to go to office till 3 days before my delivery...Because office was always a place of peace for me with whole lot of people around.Not simply around they do care for me :)

My lil one was a big time naughty fellow inside the womb ,by the start of the third trimester he from the upside down position he went to the breech position..Doctor waited till August 1st till nothing happened and i was told to go for a C section and it was my decision to take the Date on August 3rd. Because all the special moments inmy life happened on 2nd and 3rd.

 My B'day May 3rd
 My Hubbies October 2nd
 My Wedding Day November 2nd..
 So i decided my lil one should come to this beautiful world either on these two dates.

August 3rd By 2 pm i was admitted at LifeLine Hospital Abudhabi , By 5:30 pm i was taken to the operation theater.There also, i was given choice whether to go for a general anesthesia or a spinal. I selected Spinal because i was told by the doctor u will be awake through out the surgery and u can see and kiss your baby immediate. I was hearing all the conversation between doctors during the surgery..Anxious waiting at last i heard his first cry at 5:48 pm.. Ohhhh My God Tears rolled down my cheeks..Fruit of my 10 months hardship and suffering...My Daksh  - Daksh Means -> Precious Son

         Months passed like seconds now my lil one is 4 months..A small lil Champ..His father call him "Dundoomb" that's how that name sounds spelling may be different ,itz a character's name in some World Classic Movie..seriously i never seen that movie so don't ask which movie :) I call him Daksh'u...

                        NOW HE'Z MY WORLD.MY BUNDLE OF JOY N HAPPINESS    

          

Still more stories to come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


2011 i am loving you

Memories 2010

I don't know whether i can be called as a Writer...No way...yes can be called a blogger...
But for the past 2 months i was out of my blog....Obviously check the comments as well as the stats of my blog...

At some point of time even if u wish to write something its hard enough to find a topic to write on..

For the past two months i was going through such a situation....So my last blog was published last year..thatz 2010...

Itz really happy to hear that some one or the other is reading your blog..yeah such a reader is the motivation of this blog...But i don't think my this blog will be worth enough to satisfy my blog follower...

2010 was a mix and match of good and bad things.But when i take the ratio of that i can say itz like 70:30
70% best things n 30% bad things...but this is a pretty decent ratio...

Itz hard to recollect what all happened in 2010 still  i can just say a few moments which are close to my heart about 2010

One of the best thing happened in 2010 is that i started with my blog...Now my blog is very close to my heart...I should thank Priya again for that...

Feb was not that good for me personally because my dad gone thru some health issues..Now hez very much ok.. Thank God for that......

The get together with my collegemates was another good thing which happened in October.

I got my UAE Driving Licence in October :) That was a wonderful moment ;)

Another best thing happened was my 2nd wedding anniv....which was on Nov..

Yah there was one more wonderful thing happened in November...But thatz something very very persoanl so don't want to disclose here ;)

December was a month os surprises...(Parties Gettogethers Adventures Surprises)I loved December.....

So that was the end of 2010...

By start of 2011 i am back home for a month with my parents...So i am just njoying these days.

I know there will lot more dramatic changes in my life in 2011 so i am getting prepared for that....

Hope N Wish every one will have a wonderful funfilled 2011....

A very best wishes from my side to all the bloggers for a Writers Block Free 2011...

Keep Blogging Njoy
