How I love books!!! :)

Alhamdullilah, my reading habit doesn't change during my pregnancy. I even read more than usual... as some of the advices that I read, pregnant woman are encourage to do activities that can stimulate the child's mind. The activities includes reading the materials that can increase your knowledge, do mind games like soduku, IQ test and do maths exercises. (My mother in law even encourage me to do more cleaning! :P )But of course I prefer to do a lot more reading than other activities.....hehehehe. Anyways, below are the list of books that I've read and planning to read. With only about 4 months ++ left before my due dates, i really hope that I'll finish my readings. For I know I won't be able to even touch any books after my baby arrived.... (tido pun susah apetah lagi nak reading... mimpilah!!! heheheh)

so, just to share few books that I managed to read during the 5 mths plus of my pregnancy & plan to read in the next few months in no particular order :)

This is one of the firsts book I've read. I was so touched (still am!!!) with his leadership style which truly follow our beloved Rasulullah way of a leader. What I love the most about this book is that the author really described in detail the history (not just quoting the hadith) in a very interesting way.. I was really hooked that I actually finished it in one night... sampai pening2 kepala esoknye.. hehehe

I bought this book because it was quite cheap. I think it was about RM32.90. And it was colourful n full of pics! I loikeeee.... hehehe... I always want to have at least one comprehensive book about pregnancy and baby... was thinking to get one of those "what to expect" series.... but macam boring je content dalam buku tu... hehehe...

This book was actually recommended to read by one of my favourite blogger. It is really hard to find this book in bookstore. But I plan to buy it online coz it is much cheaper there (about 20% less of the retail price... if I'm not mistaken)

Last week when I went to MPH Midvalley, I had a chance to read this book a bit. My verdict: very2 informative especially for first time mothers who determined to breastfeed their kids... believe me, i've read a lot in the internet to find comprehensive information about breastfeed but none can compare the content of this book. I just have to get one!!!! heheheh... ok ok... i know, breastfeed is all about experience it yourself.. like trial and error kind of thing and you pick up and learn from there... but for me, without enough & correct information, sometime you can get frustrated quickly and low motivation to continue breastfeeding your kids.

Man... I wish every mother will read this book... really inspired to raise my children like Imam Syafie... Amin..

(ingat lagi masa baca buku nih berebut2 dgn hubby.. sbb dia yg baca dulu.. disebabkan saya kurang sabar... so everytime dia tak pegang buku nih, I quickly took it and read... hehehe)

After I know that I was pregnant... the first thing I did was I went to the bookstore (off course after confirming my pregnancy with my gynae... hehe) I was sooooo excited to buy books!!! mcm weird kan sbb some of us terus pegi mothercare ke hape... hehhehe... tapi tak kisahla... preference masing2... so I saw this book and browsed it through.. wow... a lot of things I don't know and wants to know about child development are being explained thoroughly here..... many of you might say you can get a lot of info from the internet too... yes, true. but isn't in easier when you can have all the info in one book? where you can read in the car (while hubby driving.. hehe), one you can read it before you sleep (saya memang jenis takleh tido kalau tak pegang buku dulu... tapi adekah habit ini akan berkekalan??? tak berani weh nak janji hhehehe)...

So after I read "how to have a smarter baby", I was even more curious about child development. So I went to the bookstore and scan through the books about child development. This book is even better!!! It has loads of pics and methods for parents who wants to train their child at the earlier stage (ada satu gambar tu dia tunjuk the mother just hold her baby hands and swing the baby side to side... gile hape... kalo mak aku nengok mau dia ingat kes mendera baby...hehehe... but i supposed those method is to build courage and confidence in the children at really2xxxx early age... tapi extreme kan omputeh nih? hhehehee)

hahaha... this book also adelah satu pinjaman.. it's my sis in law punye...I'm not sure where she bought it... sbb mcm tade je kat Msia nih... tapi besttttttttt sgttttt!!!!! sangat menginsafkan okeh... yela, kite idup sedap2 je kat msia nih.. but in reality, some of our brothers and sisters out there are struggling to survive... I burst into tears while reading this book... (termasuk sbb hormonal changes jugak la nih)...

ha, buku nih plak I bought when I was in Dublin for only Eur5.... haaa gile murah... hehehehe... nothing much to say about this book.. the content practically the same as other pregnancy's book.. the week by week pregnancy development, pregnancy diet and all that sorts...

This is one of the recommended purchase... sgt2 bagus... banyak doa2 dlm nih yg boleh diamalkan..

ade a few more books that I've read but I can't really recall.. tak kisah lah kan.. yang penting quality reading not the quantity.. ye tak?? hehehe

Last but not least, apart from the above books, do try not to miss baca Al-Quran setiap hari... I think yang nih paling important... because Quran tu kan penuh dengan mukjizat... you will feel a lot stronger and healthier and really2 enjoy your pregnancy moments....Insya Allah.. :)

Ok.. next entry maybe I'll write about my TTC (Trying To Conceive) Journey.. hubby yang insist... dia kata share la our experience so that other people that go through the same problem will get inspired and have some ideas on what to do... yela, ape guna nye ilmu kalau tak dikongsi ye tak??? sharing is caring maaa.... hehehee
