Waktu Asha masih bayi dia alergi dairy products. Jadi sampai umur 1 tahun saya tidak mengkonsumsi susu sapi, eskrim yg mengandung susu sapi, keju, coklat, dll. Berat memang, godaan dimana-mana. Saat itu saya menyadarinya ketika setelah minum susu dia sering ruam popok, dan memang keluar beruntusan. Setelah lewat umur 6bln sekali2 saya mengkonsumsi jajanan dairy products dalam jumlah kecil biasanya tidak apa-apa. Ketika pada umur 8 bln ASIP saya tidak mencukupi kebutuhan saya sempat memberi susu sapi, alerginya malah jadi sembelit.
Untuk Rana, karena ketika hamil saya biasakan minum susu sapi saya kira dia tidak akan alergi. Ternyata sama saja. Lebih parah malah. Sejak dia lahir amat sensitif terhadap kandungan ASI saya. Kalau saya makan dairy products secuil aja, langsung deh keliatan. Betul-betul harus super ketat kali ini. Kemungkinan besar kalau harus ditambah sufor pun harus susu kedelai lagi.
Ketika Asha beranjak 1 tahun, alerginya berangsur-angsur berkurang, hingga sekarang dia berusia 3thn Alhamdulillah alergi susu sapinya sudah hilang. Tapiiiii ternyata dia jg ada bakat eksim dari ayahnya. Persis sama, terpicu seafood yang kurang segar. Kulitnya juga agak kasar. Sementara sabun JJnya mau dihabiskan dulu, dibantu dengan lotion QV.
Untuk Rana juga sama, sabun JJnya dihabiskan dulu, dibantu lotion QV. Saya masih belum tahu nih kedepannya bagaimana. Apakah sama dengan kakaknya? Lebih ringan atau lebih parah? Repot juga nih, semua dapat keturunan eksim dari ayahnya....
Sementara ini untuk pengobatan anak-anak kalau lagi kumat saya beri moisturiser yg berat. Seperti physiogel, neosporin. Tapi karena mahal tempat aplikasinya dipilih-pilih, hanya yang parah. Bagian tubuh lainnya pakai QV lotion. Lotion-lotion untuk bayi-bayi saya gak coba soalnya bukan buat kulit sensitif. Belum sampai tahap pakai krim steroid. Mudah-mudahan gak jadi separah itu.
Kalo bapaknya eksimnya kumat, jgn tanya, harus minum antibiotik sama pake krim steroid segala.
Mudah-mudahan sakitnya gak yang lebih aneh-aneh ya
========================================================================
Sekedar update, waktu ke dsa sempet tanya soal neosporin, ternyata itu mengandung antibiotik. Jadi gak boleh sering-sering dipakai. Untung ditanyain. Sama dokternya disaranin pake moisturizer Cetaphil aja, soalnya saya komplen Physiogel AI creamnya terlalu mahal. Disini CEtaphil Ultra Hydrating Lotion sekitar S$18 yg ukuran 470ml. Physiogel AI Cream S$22 yg ukuran tube 50ml.

Aura 4 months old
She turned 4 months this 18 March. Her milestones are:
- she sleeps lesser now. Maybe about 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon. Then after afternoon bath she'd sleep until about 8pm then I feed her again. And most of the time she'd sleep all thru until 5/6 am.
- she drinks slightly more. I think still lesser compared to Asha at this age but she's growing well so far.
- she still only poop once evry week. I am so worried when she starts on solid what will happen *sigh*
- she's more alert now. Recognizes people, know how to look for attention.
- she seems to have started teething. Because she's "gnawing" on my nipple and she starts to bite things.
- she sleeps lesser now. Maybe about 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon. Then after afternoon bath she'd sleep until about 8pm then I feed her again. And most of the time she'd sleep all thru until 5/6 am.

Cara membuat:

1 buah wortel serut halus
1 telur
50 gr Keju parut
Coating:
1 telur campur garam sesuai selera
Bread crumb buat coatingCara membuat:
1. Campur semua bahan aduk pakai tangan sampai tercampur semua
2. Letakkan di container kotak lalu kukus sekitar 15-20menit.
3. Setelah dikukus boleh dicetak pakai cookie cutter atau dipotong kotak sesuai selera. Ketebalan juga diatur sesuai selera. Kalau aku bikinnya gak terlalu tebal soalnya anaknya ga suka yang tebel.
4. Siapkan coating. Balurkan bahan yang udah dikukus di telur kemudian dibalurkan di bread crumbs. Kalau aku senengnya setelah dibalur bread crumbs dimasukkan ke dalam ziploc berisi bread crumbs juga terus shake biar pelapisnya menempel lebih merata.
5. Simpan di freezer beberapa jam sebelum digoreng. Kalau aku biasanya bikin weekend terus baru digoreng sehari setelah ato beberapa hari kemudian.
Gampang banget dan lebih sehat! Aku tergolong orang pemalas tapi sempat bikin jadi dijamin deh semua juga bisa hahaha.

Rana 3 Months, Asha 38 Months
Rana
She has become such an adorable little baby. We went for her PCV and rotavirus vaccines on Saturday. Weigh her she was about 60cm and 7kg. SEVEN KILOGRAMS!!
In the past two months she only pass motion every week! I was a bit worried at the beginning but everyone says it's normal for breastfed babies. Most probably they absorbed everything. Even her pd said, "As long as it's not hard, she's not straining, it should be fine. She probably absorbed everything cos she has been growing very well." Starting this week she has started to pass motion more regularly. Every day or so. InsyaAllah it will continue to be so.
She has lifted her neck more often. Prefers upright position when being carried and half sitting down when she's on her back. She is very fond on strangers, has a very cheeky smile. People say she looks like Bram, but her eyes are shaped like mine. Her lips looks like my eyang putri.
She adores her big sister. Loves her company. And even though I know at her age there should be NO TV but sometimes when I put her on the living room and her sis is watching TV I just couldn't help it. She loves company, if you sit next to her she'll just lay quietly. When she's left alone she'd call for people. She loves travelling, and I mean walk around. She is in that stage where she is starting to enjoy scenery. She always looks at everything with such fascinated eyes.
Compared to Asha, she had more trouble adjusting to the bottle and less patience for slow milk flow. Now it's much better.
Asha
She is a very good big sister. Her jealousy and rivalry was worst at the first 2 months. After that she is adapting to the fact that she has a new baby in the house. Plus now there are 3 adults in the house so she could choose with whom she wants to play with. She got used to baby latching on to me and that I need to finish feeding her before I could entertain her. I try my best to provide extra time for her as well. Either for playing, walking about, go to the supermarket, just the two of us or her and the daddy.
Her speech and vocab have been growing fast. Now she goes to Zulfa nursery. So now she knows the doa before makan, before sleep, and some simple doas. Now she can draw stick man! Hahahahaha. She drew the whole family as stick people. Her cartoon fave has changed a bit, now she's into cartoon network. Geez. She loves going to the playground and play with other kids.
After she hits 3 yo, her appetite is better, her understanding is better too. Now it's easier to reason with her over things, to get her up for school and to take showers. We still have fights and bad screaming annoying days but it wasn't as bad as before she turned 3. Before this, she had 5 bad days out of 7. Now maybe 2 bad days out of 7. Her junkfood phase is slowly lessening.
I think that's about it for now. I'll post again whenever I remember to post. CIao

Two Weeks Post Partum
I'm still learning to cope up. My main problem with the tweensie is breastfeeding, my main problem with the bigsie is tantrum problem.
First Week.
I thought the second time breastfeeding I've gotten the hang of it. It turns out.. NO! I still got to suffer from poor latch on, cracked nipples, etc. First week was spent with me struggling to overcome that problem. Milk supply was no problem, it was better compared to last time but because of poor latch on I was engorged. Then I went to lactation consultant who taught me to latch on properly and helped me rid of my lumps. Within one week my nipple is healing and my milk flow is better.
My second problem on this week was, at day 6 Rana's jaundice level was 223mmol/L. Normal supposed to be around 103. The doctor did not send for phototherapy because the level had not exceeded 300 yet.

Accomplishments 34months
So, since we started on September by this mid October I announce that she's diaper free! Even if I put her diaper on it's not wet! Since last post I've had 1 accident wetting the bed at night, and a few pees before we reach toilet. So Alhamdulillah, I can save money now!
Her speech is growing each day. She still speaks in grammatically random sentences but I kept correcting her. Her vocabs increased, Indonesian and English. "Sudah selesai", "Masih ada", and a few more indonesian phrases that she managed to pull through. Some easy English sentences she managed to say perfectly, but there are still times that I don't even know what the hell she's trying to say.
She is now interested in vehicles (trains, cars, anything that moves), robots, dinosaurs, and other non-girls stuff. Her fave tv shows are Pocoyo, Tayo, Mr Maker, Hi5. Her fave movie is Toy Story and Wall E.She is very good in memorizing songs, even though sometimes she only got it partially but she got the words right! so I guess it's a good time to teach her phonics.
Her favorite activities are pasting stickers, building blocks, drawing, coloring. I'm trying to teach her phonics and get her to read more. Maybe during my maternity leave I'll try doing that. But she is such a random person. She'll just do whatever she wants to do.
Her reluctance to take a bath is still on going. Some days are good, some days are bad, some days are horrible. Got to put on earplugs and handle her with patience. Which is so difficult when I am tired as well. I am so dreading for the day that she can go take a shower willfully without drama.
These past few months she seemed to have become a picky eater. I am going to try to be more creative in preparing dishes. So difficult to ask my maid to be creative cos last time she worked in Saudi, they fed their kids with Cokes and Burgers.
She is in that phase called terrible two going three. Everything is a NO. And it is the time when she forcefully push her own ways and wants. In good days I can reason with her, but in bad days it's just a never ending screaming and fights. So tiring -____-.
I just wish these days will end soon, but then another phase will come along. Oh well, the beauty of having kids I guesss....
I always emphasized to myself, enjoy these times and more horrible and enjoyable times to come. Kids get on your nerves, but don't let your nerves give up on them. So don't fret and stress over them, it's just a phase they need to go through. Easier said than done.
