7 weeks :My Baby Trying To Socialize

Bismillah

Allahummsolli 'ala Muhammad

This video is taken when we just d from Shah Alam. One of my student come over to our house to submit their thesis. Just when she took my baby on her lap, he started to talk. What impressed me more is the student who took him in this pic, is a shy person and and not a talker. Even when Fudhyl is talking to her, she just smiles and laughs at his blabbering. Oh btw, actually this video longer than this, but I forgot to press the play button so the video is shorter than the actual socializing thingy. He is just started. The moments will come when even we as the parents can't 'layan' the chatting anymore. :)

7 Weeks

Your baby's brain is expanding in size and complexity. It will grow about 5 centimeters during the first three months.

You may notice short periods of time when your newborn is quiet and alert. This is prime time for learning. Use these calm intervals to get better acquainted with your baby — talk to her, sing to her, describe the pictures on the walls. She may not be able to add to your conversation just yet, but she's learning nonetheless.

New textures for her hands to feel and new sights and sounds (all in moderation) are all learning opportunities. Even bath time becomes a laboratory for understanding the world around her.

Welcome my child

Bismillah

Alhamdulillah, Thummal Hamdulillah.

With Allah's Mercy, Bless and help, I have delivered a baby boy on 17 January 2011:n 7.40 am at the wieght of 3.55kg.

I did nothing so there is nothing to claim, as a servant of HIM, HE did everything and we just strive to do everything up to the very best that we can achieve according to what HE ask us to do.

Merely, as a sign of obedience to ALLAH. Everything, at the first place is ibadah, not an effort to prove anything but everything we did is a sign of fullest submission to HIM. So that, we wouldn't feel well this is our effort, this is my benefit, this is my specialty so on and so forth.

What I'm going through right now, is not a new story at all. All mummies is going through the same process over and over again. Yet again, this is a new phase for me The new challenge is just begin. *grin*. What I found VERY challenging is:-

1) Breastfeeding

2) Bedtime Routine

3) Juggling between works, household chores, baby (and marriage of course)

InsALLAH, here forth, I will jotting down the milestones of my baby (just for my own record) and the things that I learns as a new mother and way to improve myself as a parent.

What amazed me most is having a baby, I learn a lot of myself from him and at the same time it help me to improve myself as a person. Beside that yes, he is an invidual himself, we can do everything based on what we think the best from him, but the end of the day, he is just well....himself + a servant of HIM who will grow according to Allah's plan. We just....do the very best as a servant can do.

May Allah's bless, love, guidance and endless help will assist this new journey of mine. Amin.
