A Drop of Share-MIS 750 EMBA 771 3B

One of my teenage dream long time back is to be a young mother. I was not overly affectionate with kids like other woman. But I always wish that my kids will grow as a teenage while I'm still a young mother (still passionate about everything that adore by youth). So I hope that they can share any activities and secret with me.

Although my dream not fully fulfilled, but thank you Allah has give me a wonderful gift. At age of 27, I was awarded my first daughter, Nur Dayana Zulfah. Three years later, Nur Nuha Qaisara have come into picture of our life (me and my husband).

Pregnancy and raising child experience really change the priority in my life. I try to put the highest effort for them. During pregnancy, I'm doing my best to ensure not missed any vitamin, milk twice a day and practice any spiritual (Quran, Solat Sunat etc) and physical activities to ensure I will deliver a healthy and intelligent baby. Thanks to modern technology for let me keep in track to monitor my fetus progress. Every month, I will do ultrasound checking and every 3 month, I will do 3D ultrasound. Let me explain a bit regarding ultrasound and 3D ultrasound.

Pregnancy Ulltrasound

A pregnancy ultrasound is an imaging test that uses sound waves to see how a baby is developing in the womb. It is also used to check the female pelvic organs during pregnancy.
An ultrasound scan involves transmitting high frequency sound waves through the uterus. These bounce off the baby and the returning echoes are translated by a computer into an image on a screen that reveals the baby's position and movements. Hard tissues such as bone reflect the biggest echoes and are white in the image, and soft tissues appear grey and speckled. Fluids (such as the amniotic fluid that the baby lies in) do not reflect any echoes so appear black. It is the contrast between these different shades of white, grey and black that allows your obstetrician to interpret the images.

This is a normal ultrasound of the fetus performed at 17 weeks gestation. The fetal face can be seen in the middle of the screen. The head is tilted left toward the placenta, which can be seen as a mound in the left of the ultrasound image. Both eyes are visible, and the area of white within the eye is the lens. Other facial features, such as the nose and mouth, are also visible.

3D 4D Ultrasound

3D ultrasound is a medical ultrasound technique, often used in obstetric ultrasonography (during pregnancy), providing three dimensional images of the fetus.
There are several different scanning modes in medical and obstetric ultrasound. The standard common obstetric diagnostic mode is 2D scanning. In 3D fetal scanning, however, instead of the sound waves being sent straight down and reflected back, they are sent at different angles. The returning echoes are processed by a sophisticated computer program resulting in a reconstructed three dimensional volume image of fetus's surface or internal organs, in much the same way as a CT scan  machine constructs a CT scan image from multiple x-rays. 3D ultrasounds allow one to see width, height and depth of images in much the same way as 3D movies but no movement is shown.

Gadget for Pumping Milk
Ultrasound and 3D Scan is the technology during pregnancy. Since first pregnancy, I always wish I can give milk that produced by my body to my kids at least until they are 1 year old. Old time parents wont believe this dream. For them it is too impossible you can breastfeed your baby and at the same time you work at the office. My mom keep on pushing me to train my baby drink a cow milk when my confinement period near to end. But, I keep on my principle and whispered to myself that I can do whatever I want.

Again, thank you again for the technology. Although juggling with operations work, never ended meeting, attend to EMBA classes during weekend, electric breast pump assist me a lot to ensure I fulfill my dream. Around 10 minute, three times a day during office hour, i manage to supply my daughter a human milk by daily basis at least 15oz.

Internet also give me a full assistance during my difficult time in nurturing my kids. Each time I have any inquiry in their development, I always search the info in internet. As an example, when Nuha experienced a lot of milk rashes at her face, I get an advice from my friends via facebook and blog in how the older people tips.

This is a few blog or website that I always visit for getting info to ensure I be a good mother and my child will growth as best as other people's child.

In any workplace, we faced a situation that sometimes we feel headache.

I do too. Many times actually.
  
Sometimes I hate the thing name Email. Although it become a most relies application in a business world today  but we too dependent on it so  make people less of verbal communication between each other. People tend to use it as an obligation for any single mater in an office.

"Salmi, you dont read my email a.. The justification must be prepared at least by this morning.We will present it this afternoon maa."

I was answering. "You email me on 11.20 pm..That time I already lay beside my baby and nursing her. Don't you need sleep too. Are you alien who don't need sleep". But luckily the answer only in my head.

Favourite recipient-as to update every single mater in office..Mouth less function nowadays.

Or sometimes, a friend who sit only in front of me. Maybe only the partition separate us. She mad with me as I didn't turn into meeting with client, so at the end only she have to answer all the complaint from customer.

I claimed to her as I didn't receive any meeting invitation, hence nobody open a mouth to update me regarding that meeting.

At last she apologized me and said the invitation didn't out from her outbox in Outlook as the Wireless Connection down at our office yesterday.

Oh people. I have no idea either I am out of trend or this situation must be corrected.
  
Other than this issue, this is another disadvantages of email to be shared:

1)  Many people send spam and junk emails with attachments filled with destructive viruses that are at risk of ruining your computer if opened.

2) A few emails might not be a great problem but when the amount of mails received becomes out of control, it can certainly get very annoying.In the end, you have to delete these emails which will cause you to consume too much time.

 

One from my hobbies is watching television.

I must say sometimes this hobby make me worry about myself. If I'm start to watch any episode of drama and I like it so much..then I will become addicted to that drama. I try to adjusted whatever other normal routines as a wife and mother according to the schedule of that drama.

One of Korean drama that distinguish myself from reality is "To the Beautiful You".

To The Beautiful You (TTBY)

My 3 years old daughter usually will sided me when her daddy need to see football game when TTBY show is in air.

"Ayah..now mama turn to drama The Beautiful You"..Her words make me so happy and I feel touched to it.

Watching TTBY make me wonder who is the actor? What name of the fountain that they shoot at the scene? What happen after this episode? Sometimes I wish I have a smart tv so I can google to it and at the same time I wont miss any single scene of the episode.

I read in Wikipedia the definition of  a Smart TV device is either a television set with integrated Internet capabilities or a set top box for television that offers more advanced computing ability and connectivity than a contemporary basic television set. Smart TVs may be thought of as an information appliance or the computer system from a handheld computer.

Smart TV..Smart TV is awesome but the girl beside it also awesome. How Korean get the fairer skin like that??

Main services of Smart TV is to deliver content from other computers or network attached storage devices like photos, movies and music to the television. Other than that it can provide access to Internet bases services includeing traditional broadcastt TV channels, voting, gambes, social networking such as Facebook and other multimedia applications. Smart TV devices facilitates the curation of traditional content by combining information from the Internet with content from TV Providers.

So if I have a smart tv, I can query what name of the handsome actor or who actually he date with ? (I know, I am married :), Or my husband at the same time can check either Arsenal already lead the game without disturbing me to watch the movies.

In this cases, can we said new technology easier the people activity or actually its only increase the entertainment mobility?

By the way before I'm continuing my dream for have my own smart tv, the issues to be clarify is..either do we have enough money?
