7 months old

C is 7 months old already. Time really flies. What has been happening at the home front. It has been a whirl wind of activities since my in laws were here. First I was sick, then baby was sick, then RH, then me again then the maid. After which we had to go to Surabaya (with C) because grandpa & grandaunt passed away. After we came back, my work piled up and then Alpha Course started and so blah blah blah.

I do not even have time to sleep lest to blog. Hehehe! Luckily, things seem to have settled down somewhat now and we are going back to some resemblance of normal. Although, nothing has been normal since C was born. I have not had a single good night's sleep since C was born. Waking up every night is the norm. Not having enough rest is the norm. Losing weight is the norm. YES, I am officially thinner than my pre-pregnancy state. After the bout of illness, my weight just went sinking.

Some (RH), I suspect is happy about my weight loss while I am trying to put on weight. Something else I am trying to do is to stop breastfeeding, which proves to be a tad harder than I thought it would be. I have had 3 cases of Mastitis (breast infection) on my journey to stop breastfeeding but am happy now to report that my milk supply has reduced to about 75% my usual milk supply which I think is a great achievement. I hope that I can competely stop breastfeeding in 2 months time. C, on the other hand is still taking mostly breastmilk although he has started on one milk powder bottle and 2 solids a day. Fruit in the morning and rice cereal in the evening.

Foods that he has tried thus far:

1. Apples

2. Banana

3. Papaya

4. Pear

5. Nectarine

6. Avocados

7. Plums

8. Carrots

9. Spinach

10. Brown Rice Cereal

11. Rice Cereal

12. Chicken

13. Bottled Parnips

14. Yoghurt

Yes, you saw it right! He has had chicken. Pureed, of course. Although he is now the proud owner of 5 teeth (2 bottom and 3 on top), I think it would still be hard for him to chew on chicken meat.
