Makanan Pelengkap: When to start?

I love this ebook from nutriweb intitle 'Nutritionist's Choice Cook Book'. Macam-macam info ada dalam buku ni, about nutrition, baby's recipe, toddler's recipe..etc. Thanks so much Wani! Nak kena try ni...

Eventhough I already have 3 kids bukan bermakna I dah pandai segalanya. I need to learn banyak lagi because the kids are growing up so fast..salah satunya belajar masak for the kids. Hmm doakan usaha saya ini diberkati..suka sangat bila anak-anak suka apa yang kita masak :D

This is some info about Complementary Feeding @ Makanan Pelengkap 
Kalau boleh memang nak try semua resepi dalam buku ni *yummy* for my baby, InsyaAllah..

How to Feed?
Knowing how to begin complementary feeding is important.
Successful feeding not only optimises your child's nutritional intake,
but also helps to shape good eating habits from a young age.

How frequent?
6-8 months: 2-3 main meals a day and make sure breast milk is provided 5-6 times a day. Snacks are generally not required, but may be given if tolerated by baby
9-11 months: 3-4 main meals a day + 1-2 nutritious snacks
1-2 years: 4-5 main meals a day + 1-2 nutritious snacks

Feeding DO's

• Introduce only one new food at a time. For example, start with blended rice porridge. Once baby gets used to it, introduce second type of food from another food group.
• Apply the 4-day rule. Wait for 4 days after introducing a new type of food; this will help determine if your baby likes the food and allow him to get used to it. This will also helps to detect signs of food allergy baby might have.
• Start with a small amount. Increase the amount gradually as baby gets older.
• Once baby has been introduced to a variety of foods, start serving a combination of foods in a single meal, e.g. serving rice porridge with minced meat and pureed vegetable.
• Make sure the food flavour and texture are right according to baby's stage of development.
• Feed as soon as baby gets hungry before baby gets upset and loses appetite.
• Depending on baby's ability, give foods that baby can pick up, and give water in a cup that he can hold.
• Avoid having distractions, such as TV and toys, during feeding so that baby can fully focus and enjoy his meal.
• Have meals together with baby. You can actively encourage baby to eat or even self-feed.

Feeding DON'Ts

• Mix different types of food in one meal when first started.
• Give foods that baby can choke on, such as nuts or seeds.
• Force-feed or overfeed. Stop feeding when baby turns away or shows disinterest; he may be feeling full already.

Abang turns FIVE today!

Alhamdulillah, he turns 5 today. Seronok bukan main sebab pagi-pagi lagi we all dah nyanyikan lagu 'happy birthday' and he got his 1st present from us, an UltraMAN yang boleh nyanyi lagu jepun and ada lampu merah blinking kat chest dia....hehe. Boys kannn...hmm

Adiknya pulak bila nampak abang dapat UltraMAN, "Mana Amat punya?" so terpaksala terangkan kat dia, today is abang's birthday. You will only get it on your birthday nanti but not today. Syukurlah dia paham walaupun tak la macam paham paham sangat. At least dia takdak la kisah sangat dia tak dapat hari ni.

Today we sent muffins to their kindy and nursery. Alhamdulillah rezeki budak-budak tu...dapatla rasa sorang sikit sempena birthday Musa :). And pagi tadi he asked "Takdak kek untuk ajim potong ka?". Dah pandai yer dia mintak kek nak potong..so mama dah belikan time lunch tadi untuk dia potong kek tonight di rumah dengan kami & adik-adiknya.

InsyaAllah malam nanti ada lagi birthday present for him...hehe.

"HAPPY 5th BIRTHDAY MUSA"..Be a good boy!

Cuti-cuti Malaysia - Pulau Langkawi

Alhamdulillah, last month dapatla kami bercuti setelah sekian lama tak bawak the kids pergi mana-mana. Kali ni kami decided naik Fireflyz PEN-LGW sebab tak pernah naik lagi :D

First time for all of us except Mr Boss

First flight for my small baby!

He seems enjoying his nap on the flight ;) hehe sebab dapat tidoq atas mama sepanjang masa..

Sekejap je from Penang to P.Langkawi..ada la kot dalam 30 minit. Naik flight, tengok sana sini...enjoying the view, dapat minum jus...nampak laut sat and all the small islands, then dah nak turun ;)

Sampai P.Langkawi, suasana biasa saja sebab bukan peak season. Kami dapat sewa sebijik Toyota RUSH ;) dengan harga berpatutan RM100 per day. Kalau time peak ni maunya sampai RM150~RM200 per day.

Cerita pasal accomodation pulak, ingatkan nak duduk Sheraton Fourth Points yang dekat je dengan airport. Tup tup teringin nak pi drive terus ke Sheraton Langkawi Resort dulu and tengok the place. Sampai-sampai we all pi tengok the rooms dulu and they have kids package untuk kami - Room with 2 queen size bed + free 1 extra bed + free for 2 days breakfast (2 adults and 2 kids) + 1 night dinner in house. The room memang ada  2 Queen size bed :) sangat suka sebab takde la berhimpit atas King size bed..LOL

The view sangat best tapi  pantai tak best and service pun tak best :D haha. Banyak pulak nak komplen. Bila nak malam, nyamuk banyak. Tu la, nak lagi dok dalam hutan :) ingatkan syok...hehe. Rupanya takde la best mana. So lepas ni kalau nak pi P.Langkawi lagi, we decided to stay at Sheraton Fourth Points pulak. InsyaAllah!

Shopping...overall takde la best sangat kali ni sebab I can't shop banyak pun since the kids kecik-kecik lagi. Takut nak pergi kat tempat pinggan mangkuk :p

Coklat must buy!

Maybe next time yer kita pergi shopping-mopping...InsyaAllah!

Isteri Solehah :D
