To update or not to update?

Assalamualaikum wbt & hello!

Yesterday, my friend shared an entry from Witty + Pretty's blog and it's about "The 10 worst things new and expecting moms post on facebook". I had fun laughing at all the ten points. Haha. Terasa la, kena kat batang hidung sendiri. Tapi tak banyak sangat sebab saya update pasal anak pun sikit sikit je. Honestly, sejak start mengandung dan bila dah bersalin pun memang saya tak update sangat kat mana mana. Even my twitter and my blog pun, setakat mana je saya cerita. Ada pun, tak detail like some people. Orang kata saya pendiam, as for me, saya bukan pendiam. Saya suka bercerita, sangat! Tapi sebab saya pemalas. Malas nak bercerita. Haha.

Waktu saya mula mula tau mengandung, ibu la orang kedua yang tau (the first one was my husband of course). Itu pun secara tak sengaja. Pergi rumah ibu, then ibu said that my blouse looks like I'm a pregnant woman. So, saya pun cerita lah yang I've checked using UPT and it showed positive. And since I'm active macam tak ada apa apa berlaku dan perut pun lambat membesar, even my dad didn't know that I'm pregnant. Dah masuk enam bulan kot baru ayah tau. Sebab ayah kata kat ibu, "tahun ni dapat dua cucu la ye?" after he found out my sis in law was pregnant. The other one, memang awal awal dah tau was Kak Hidayah. Ibu balas balik, "eh. Apa pula dua, dapat tiga cucu lah..." Ayah terkejut dan tanya, "Siapa yang mengandung lagi?" Hahaha. Kesian ayah!

Dalam kalangan kawan kawan pula, my best friend Ayu yang dapat tau dulu (Allah the most powerful, my daughter was born on the same date as Ayu. Haha). Then, one of my colleague pula dapat tau since I need to ask her what should I do next once I know I'm pregnant... Hehe. Dan kawan kawan di Facebook pula dapat tau bila saya update status untuk wish birthday Matnor and at the end of the note, I typed "'we' love you".. Kahkahkah.. sengal betul. I thought no one will noticed. Tapi ramai pula yang tanya "we?".. Mungkin sebab saya jarang ber Facebook. Bila sekali saya update status, semua baca sungguh sungguh. Hahaha. That time I was five months plus pregnant.

Lepas bersalin pun, saya tak terus update di Facebook. Neither did my family. Gambar baby masih berlumuran darah pun tak ada. Cuma dah lebih dua minggu, after few of my friend asked for the picture of our baby baru lah kami share. Oh. Matnor awal awal dah upload pun gambar baby tapi dalam family group je lah. Well, it's not that we're not excited with every little new things we're going through. It's just that, kadang kadang saya terasa takut kalau kalau saya ada buat orang lain sedih. Mungkin ada yang sedang berusaha untuk dapat anak tapi belum diberi rezeki lagi. That's one of the reason saya tak update sangat.. Another reason is, as I mentioned earlier, saya kan PEMALAS nak upload picture semua ni. Hahaha.

Afterall, it's up to some people either they want to update their pregnancy and raising their children experience on social networks or not. Cuma do it moderately lah. Once in a while, it is exciting. Kalau dah selalu sangat, hilang pula seronok nya. Kot?
