Eighteen Months, Baby!

Baby..baby..baby.. you are officially one and a half year of age. I cant believe time flies really fast. You re not even a baby anymore, eventhough sometimes we still treat you like a tiny little baby. hehe.

So whats new? well...hes officially drinking formula now. Yep.. I was one of those mothers who swore not to give the baby a formula ever. But look what Ive done now... Okay, so I give him formula because I am sooooo super desperate on feeding my baby. Hes been so hard to eat for quite a long time in my opinion. This really makes me cry, angry, worry, and everything. His growth and developments are pretty amazing but he just not gaining any weight since he was around 14 months. I mean... of course he gains weight but its extremely slow and just a little. I notice the theory saying as the baby grows older and having so much activity, they wont be gaining weight as fast and as much as when theyre under 12 months. Okay, I get that. But this??? added with his unwillingness to eat.. really preasured me.

In this 18 months he only weighs 10 kg. Isnt that horrible?? Oh dear God, pleaseeee... help me. The most hurting me is when my baby's grandparents keep saying that he is so skinny now. How can a mother not feeling depressed stressed sad and terrible hearing that. Another thing that really break my heart is whenever I see someone his age that is bigger, fatter than him. I cant take that. I just cant. At first, I wasnt really paying attention to other babies weight. I didnt even care. But as my parents and my in laws keep saying that... it really bugs me, so I begin comparing my baby to others. Ahh this is so frustraring.

My baby still drink breastmilk of course, and I thank God for that. But I also supplement him with a formula. I remember the first time at store I was so confused on how much formula options they had. So I just picked one that not too expensive nor too cheap. It was Morinaga Chilkid regular. I also give him Scotts emultion. Yeah.. I kinda lost in babys supplementation commercial. But guess what? He does NOT like that emultion. Even it has orange flavor and not so fishy. Okay.. about the formula. I thought hes gonna be delighted to drink milk, but unfortunately... not really.. hhhmmm.. So I kinda force him to drink it sometimes. For the formula, I give him regularly 2-3 times a day between 90-120 ml. I have not seen the difference or improvement yet after consuming the formula for 2 weeks, but Im hoping so bad that it really does him any good. So we ll see after a month. Finger crossed.

Soto Seger Hj. Fatimah, Boyolali

Gambar
Beberapa waktu lalu kami jalan-jalan ke Boyolali. Setiap singgah di tempat baru pastinya selalu cari makanan khas daerah tersebut.  Boyolali sendiri terkenal sebagai kota susu, tapi kami nggak nyari susunya. Saat itu waktu makan siang. Laper banget. Jalan deh ke pusat kota dan liat soto boyolali yang penuh banget. Sampe keder sendiri kalo mau masuk.  Jangankan masuk, parkir aja nggak bisa.  Dan herannya hampir semua warung soto seger ini penuh semua.   Lalu kami carilah warung soto yang memungkinkan kami duduk dalam warung itu. Warung Soto Segeer Hj. Fatimah (sama aja kayak Mbok Giyem hanya merubah nama), karena soto Hj. Fatimah/ Mbok Giyem inilah yang ada di setiap titik kota ini.  Penyajian soto segeer ini di mangkuk kecil mirip soto Kudus. Namun, soto segeer ini adalah soto sapi bukan soto ayam. Kuahnya bening tidak kuning. Terdapat beberapa suwiran daging sapi, dipercantik dengan beberapa helai daun seledri dan tauge yang banyak.  Rasanya segeeerr banget. Enak deh. Cucok buat e

Product Review: The Body Shop Born Lippy Lip Balm Passion Berry

TBS Born Lippy Lip Balm in Passion Berry I have a dry lip so I wanna keep my lip moisturized all day. I usually have Nivea lip balm for myself, but since I was running out of the Nivea one, I figured why not try something else. Then I went to TBS counter and picked it straight away. TBS Born Lippy Lip Balm comes in a mini round plastic tub. Its small and handy but actually I dont really like this kinda packaging. I have to dip in my finger to get  it, so its not really hygienic. I personally prefer a stick packaging thou. It costs about IDR 69k. Yeah, its more expensive than the Nivea lip balm. It has a jelly texture kinda waxy. But when I put it on, its not so waxy or sticky at all. It feels creamy and light on my lip. It also makes my lip looking glossy. I wear this every day and night to keep my lip moist. I can tell you that it stays for over 2 hours, which is good enough. But in my opinion, this doesnt give me like a hardcore moisturizing power. Still moisturizes but not s

Baby Stuff: Mamy Poko Extra Dry vs Pampers Active Baby

Just a random post. Thought of reviewing baby stuff since I have talked a lot on mommy stuff. This may be or may not be so informative or interesting. Just enjoy sharing. So, today post is about diaper. Yes, Im one of those mothers who are STILL depending on disposable diapers. My baby wears disposable diaper only at night or whenever he goes out. Mamy Poko and Pampers are my two most favorite diapers, and the two brands that I ve ever tried.  On to the review. Mamy Poko Extra Dry was my baby's first diaper at home (when he was born, the hospital gave him some random diapers which I didnt recognize). Mamy Poko is pretty well known here for the quality. It comes in a pretty bulky design, bit thick.  Makes an obvious gap between my baby's legs. Non streatchable. The inner is soft but like I said, a bit thick. Now here comes the magic, it can absorbs so much liquid  and stays dry up to 10 hrs. Seriously, that just blows my mind. The downside is whenever my baby is pee-ing so m
