My Husband Is - Cuek

Days of Being a Mother

It has not been five days since my son was born into the world. Today is also my husband's first day at work. Chances are today's office colleagues will come here. That's what my husband said this morning.

"Perhaps later colleagues and some employees will come here" he said, wearing a tie.

I just saw it with my son who was breastfeeding.

"So, Bi Ningsih will cook a lot."

"Yes. Maybe we'll be here around five."

"OKAY. I'd like to have Iyem go shopping with Mr. Joni. There's no way they're just fed vegetables." I'm deceived.

"What you think is good."

He kissed my forehead and left. This time the surprise is what will happen in this house after two days and one night my house is made noisy by my Tante. Fortunately, he only stayed one night because he had received an important work call. If he had been here longer, I wouldn't know what would have happened to us.

Not just me. Mother, Father, Rey, Bi Ningsih even Mr. Joni who slept near the garage alone was disturbed by the high tone of his voice. My son even woke up a few times in surprise when he started calling me.

Today Mom and Dad are home. He said they'd come back here. They went home just looking at the state of the house and bought a small gift for their first grandchild.

"Bi Ning, please cook a lot. There will be guests coming. Says you later in the afternoon some employees will be here."

"Good, Mom."

"What's the meat in the fridge still?"

"Still, Mom. But I'm not sure if it's enough. How many people are coming, Mom?"

"I don't know yet, Bi. I'll ask you later."

After confirming how many people came, I went back to the kitchen and gave Iyem money to buy meat and fish.

Bi Ningsih is quite overwhelmed if there is no Iyem. When I had breakfast he had to go back and forth to the room and to the kitchen to see my son. While I can't stand this hunger.

Sometimes when Mom doesn't realize I'm up in the middle of the night, I secretly eat. Even if it's just a piece of bread and jam. I just felt how to be a nursing mother. It's really draining.

"Bi, it'll be a good cook, yeah."

"Ready, Mom. I'll cook good."

After breakfast, I went back to see my son. The nose is sharp and this white skin is really like his father.

Holding her and talking to her was something I never missed.

"Who's son's name, ma'am?"

"Not yet, Bi."

"This mother how. What time was pregnant yesterday not ready to name?"

Actually there is a name. But I didn't know if my husband would agree or not. And I don't know why Rey and I didn't talk about this at all. Gravely.

Naps above 12. That's what Mom said. Even though the person is not home, I always remember the message. Even though I had to get up at least five times last night to breastfeed, I couldn't go to bed. Especially before 12. Sleepiness struck, but I still had to endure it. He said to keep the white blood cells from rising. I don't know if that's true or not.

"Mom. Why not just wear diapers? Kan, it's good that peeing doesn't have to change pants."

"No, Bi. Poor Adek if you wear diapers. Hot."

"Yes too. In fact, many babies are irritated because they wear diapers every day."

"Yes that's also the reason, Bi. Maybe later if Adek is a bit big."

When Iyem came home, he immediately cleaned the house so that there was no dirt in any room. The room also did not escape from the cleaning. Joni also cleaned the yard. After that he had to pick up my husband at the office. While Bi Ningsih cooks. Be me alone taking care of my handsome son.

I steal time while he sleeps. Lose your body, or just play gadgets. These few days I saw Vina's status. The fun of traveling in uncle sam's country makes me jealous. Some photos are even beautiful. However, there is one photo that makes me a little surprised. One photo was taken when he held a hand. The man held the camera and held Vina's hand. Photos taken from the back make it even more epic.

Who'sisthis? Judging from his hand, this is a man.

Unfortunately, the moment I wanted to ask who that man was, my little son's cry thwarted him. I put it back on top of the drawer. While I look at my son's condition.

"Mom, what's the matter with her son?" tanya Bi Ningsih who just came.

"Na-chop, Bi."

"Let me change his pants."

Bi Ningsih changed my son's clothes. After that he gave it to me to breastfeed. Maybe this is what I'll do when Mom really comes home. A day without Mom I feel like I'm really bothered. There were two loyal assistants.

"Have the child to be patient, ma'am."

Apparently Bi Ningsih realized that I was a little tired.

"Capek, yeah, Bi. Every night I wake up, nyuin. So hungry easily."

"That's how it is to be a mother. I used to be the first and second child not to be two years old. Understand, I didn't know KB."

"That's a lot for sure, Bi."

"Yes, that's it, Mom. I used to live in the village. So, when I finished lunch, my husband changed jobs. I go to the rice fields, and the husband takes care of the children."

"Well, can that be it?"

"I used to carry my baby in the back, Mom. The big one left his father at home. Sometimes water is given when she is thirsty. Understand, not yet strong buy milk."

I didn't know that people in the past had a harder life. Work by holding a baby child. How tired.

"Children are nothing now, yes, Bi. Than Auntie first."

"So that's it, Mom. But even so, Aunt never complained. Tired of working in the fields, seeing the smiles of the children, it feels tired to be lost."

I salute Bi Ningsih. With that story, I became more grateful for my life. At least I'm more excited about the challenges that come. At least I'm still luckier than he is.

Seriate...
