Mandi wiladah & mandi nifas

Copy paste dari Q&A di halaqah.net. Rasanya ramai yang mengadap situasi no 2 kan?

***

bincang pasal mandi wiladah ni kita kena faham tujuan mandi, untuk mensucikan diri dari hadath dan membolehkan seseorang menunaikan ibadat wajib seperti solat dll.

Kesimpulannya wanita yang melahirkan ada 3 keadaan:

1) Jika ia melahirkan tanpa diiringi nifas, maka wajib dia mandi wiladah semata-mata, dan wajib ia menunaikan solat selepas itu, walaupun masih dalam pantang.

2) Jika ia melahirkan dengan diiringi nifas serta merta, maka wajib baginya mandi nifas semata-mata setelah kering darah nifas dan wajiblah ia mendirikan solat selepas itu.

3) Jika ia melahirkan, pada mulanya tanpa diiringi nifas, maka wajib ia mandi wiladah dan mendirikan solat. Kemudian jika ia didatangi pula dengan nifas, maka dia hendaklah berhenti solat dan wajib ia mandi nifas apabila kering darah nifas. kemudian wajiblah ia solat.

Wallahu A'lam.

28 weeks check up

Booked appointment at HUKM specialist centre to see Prof Zainul. He delivered Aydin 4 years ++ ago and I liked him then. Decided to go with him again for this baby.

What a wait! The appointment is on first come first serve basis. The clinic opens at 2pm (supposedly). When I registered it was 1.30pm and I was no 13 on the list. And the waiting game begins...

Tunggu

We were called in at 7.45pm (finally!).

He took the normal pregnancy history, when was my last period, what week I'm at right now, have I had titanus jap etc. Told him briefly what happened the last prenatal check up i.e. impaired MGTT test, borderline result for BSP test. My urine was clean and no traces of fungus. Based on my pregnancy weight and the BSP result he said he was not too worried. I just need to control my sugar intake.

Proceeded to do the scanning. Result: baby is in good condition. Growing healthily albeit a bit big (normal weight of baby at 28 weeks is about 1kg but my baby was at 1.33kg. Slightly big). Amniotic fluid is at the normal level, not too full and not too little. Baby is healthy. Its a boy (surprise! surprise!). No cleft palate, nothing seems to be out of ordinary.

Alhamdullillah...

Had my titanus jap. Ouchhh! and had to go back to the hospital for another blood test for god knows what.

It was a fruitful check up as I gained new knowledge today (despite the very loooooooong wait)

(i) when the weight of subsequent babies grows heavier it means there is a good spacing between babies. This means the mom's body has sufficiently recovered for the next pregnancy. Adlan weight at 2.92kg when he was born. After a gap of 2.4 years Aliya was born at 3.26kg. A gap of 3.7 years later and Aydin was born at 3.68kg. Now at 4.7 years gap... we shall wait and see :-)

(ii) If a pregnant mom frequently wakes up at nite to go to the loo, it means there is a tendency of the mom having gestational diabetes. This is because the baby accumulates fat due to the excess of sugar and the only way to get rid of the sugar is through its amniotic fluid. So the piss you piss at night moms are actually amniotic fluids from the baby. I thought I was not normal for the infrequent waking up to go to the loo. I seldom do even if I drank a lot before sleep. Thank god its a good sign rather than the opposite.

(iii) excessive amniotic fluid could also indicate gestational diabetes for reasons above.

(iv) moms with gestational diabetes would normally contract urinary tract infection because fungus loves the excess of sugar.... ooo... baru ku tau...

(v) titanus jap is taken for every pregnancy as a top up to the body. First pregnancy its 2 japs. 2nd pregnancy a top up of 1 jap. The 3rd will entitled you to another 2 japs... and so on and so forth. I can only say one thing... ouchhh!!

Week 26 | MGTT & BSP

A few more days to enter Week 27. 

Had to do MGTT (Modified Glucouse Tolerance Test) in week 24. This is where you have to fast for 8 hours before you are given a mug of pure glucouse to swallow. After 2 hours you need to come back and check for glucouse level in your blood. 

I did my MGTT like 5 years ago. Then I had to swallow pure white glucouse. Now it taste like over the top manis ribena. Do you know how it feels to have to drink pure glucouse after not eating anything the past 8 hours? While you are pregnant? Pure torture I tell you!!! Also, because the last time I did it was 5 years ago so of course I wouldn't remember the dos and don'ts - like not eating within that 2 hours... oppss!

Sigh... because I was too eager to eat before going to the clinic (dah la belasah nasi beriyani dengan lauk ayam masak merah, air fresh orange pulak tu. Mana aku tau tak leh makan!) now I have to go for another test called BSP (Blood Sugar Profiling). BSP is only for those high risk of being diabetic (tinggi la bacaan glucouse level masa buat MGTT tu dah belasah makan sesuka hati khennn!). For all my previous pregnancies I was always suspected to be a high risk diabetic walhal sebelum pi ambik darah dok belasah minum air kotak la, minum air sirap la, mmg la bacaan gula tinggi. Tak pernah serik2 taw.

BSP is where I need to fast for 8 hours then get my blood tested. And repeat another 3 times for a total of 4 blood extraction. At least this time I don't have to fast the whole day, only the 2 hours before the next blood extraction. Probably blood extraction is not the correct word. I'm guessing my finger will be poked with a device to draw a teeny weeny drop of blood. That was what happened when I took the MGTT test.

Some other reason for getting an MGTT test is when there was a previous history of being diabetic while being pregnant, over the age of 35, or where the weight increases more than 1.5 - 2kg a month. I am over 35 years of age now. And I gain an average of 4kg a month *gasp*. Tak payah la nk terkejut sangat. That has always been the trend for all of my previous pregnancies so why expect anything less for this one right?

Since I have to go and visit the clinic a total of 4 times in a day, I won't be able to go anywhere tomorrow. Dah la cuti maulidur rasul esok. Budak2 mandi kolam depan rumah je la jawabnya...

Padan muka aku.
