Sahur 1 Ramadan 1438H

My first day of sahur as a mother.

Went to the kitchen at about 4.30am... The plan was to prepare sahur first while my husband sleeps with Sofia. Sambil prepare sambil curi-curi makan; mothers must be expert at this... Like my mum had once said, "Kalau nak duduk mengadap makan memang tak dapatla..."

Bila dah siap, tukar shift. That was the plan. I just placed a piece of chicken on my plate when my husband appeared with Sofia behind my back. Yes, appeared. Sebab tak perasan pun weh bila masa bangun ni! I thought I could have my sahur in peace; okay not really in peace because still have to hurry up. But you know, without Sofia. HAHA. In your dreams. She just smiled at me, as if saying 'Oh sini rupanya mama....'

I prepared 2 oz of formula milk just in case (I'm still struggling to fully breastfeed her). To my relieve, she refused to. I'm glad, because at night usually she would just latch on.

Anyway, I had rice, a cup of Milo, and two dates. I'm trying to set my mind that this is enough for me to go through the day with a nursing baby. Selamat menyambut Ramadan, everyone! Let's get the best out of this month!
