Copy cat

Today lunch we went to west mall food court cos koko richie is craving for yong tau fu mee
Mommy gives tromson a try
And he loves the noodle and yong tau fu

Perhaps what i' m missing this whole saga is he wants to eat together with koko
Same food, same time and using adult plate and cutlery

When his koko eats fruits watermelon and papaya, he too follows the suit

So starting tmr, mommy will place him sitting together with koko, same food, same time and same type of utensils
Hope this trick works

Thank you daddy :)

This is a special note for daddy Davin
After mommy has a good talk with daddy, he gives me some assurance during tromson's food strike

- This is just another phase which will be ended soon or later
- do not worry if he has enough nutritions or not cos his body knows best
- Let the nature takes its course, if he just wants breastmilk, it means his body needs that and enough with other things
- Do not discourage cos it happens to every kid
- Lower down the expectation and the meal portion

After talking with daddy who uses his logic than emotional, mommy feels ease and has no expectation to him

Yesterday during cell group, he tries meat ball pasta, siomay bandung with peanut sauce. And he likes them
Eventhough he has small portions but mommy is so happy to seem him eating

Thank you so much daddy !

Everyday is like a torture for mommy

Yes, mommy broke down almost everynight
The least thing that mommy could do in the end of the day is crying in the toilet
It's like a torture everyday watching him without or very little food go into his tummy

Everytime the meals time comes it's like agony
Seeing him tasting one or two spoons really break my heart

Mommy has tried and used all the means, different varieties of food, different methods but none work
He's just goes on food strike
Last time he still loves fruits and yoghurt, now all food are just tasting items for him
The only thing he likes only breastmilk

Oh God when this is all over
This is the lowest period of my motherhood when I  can't help him to eat more
I really feel helpless, speechless, frustrated and guilty
This is the period that i'm not looking forward facing the next day

My ego would tell me to stop breastfeeding and makes him starving
But will it work or will it turn to be worse?

Oh God and mother Mary please help me to understand him and give me strength and positive mindset to go through this period.

His appetite is back...

Good news, this two weeks have passed successfully, eventhough his meal portion is not much but he eats at home by watching TV
This is his schedule

8.30am Breakfast : Mix fruit juice +/ toast bread
10.30am Lunch : rice with soup
11.30am Nap time : Breastmilk
15.00  Snack time : fruits with yoghurt, cheese cubes
17.00 Nap time : breastmilk
18.30 Dinner time : rice with soup
21.30 Good night sleep : breastmilk

Food restocking time

This week his appetite has been good, he always finished the food and fruit mommy gave
Pheww hopefully it lasts long

 

Mommy cooked for him this week

1. Spinach soup with wintermelon

2. Beef ball soup

3. Tofu and beef ball soup with wintermelon

4. pork sausage

7 to 8 teeth

His incisors teeth are all almost out
His feeding is still unpredictable, he only likes to eat toast bread and waffle
He spits out rice but ok with pasta
Hope this phase passes soon and his appetite is back and can eat anything
