The Noctural Amna

Again. I've been attacked by the vicious reverse cycle.

However, last night was rather hilarious and awe-moment too. Amna has started walking! Actually it's a no surprise (she's just refuses to walk, she can stand without support fore more than 3 seconds) but she's being actually-walking (in the middle of the night) is a HUGE achievement for me (and her). The proud look on her face - and how her face beaming with smiles and giggles - PRICELESS!!! :') Alhamdulillah....

*tak sempat ambik gambar sebab it was rather dark in the room - with only the night lamp on*

These days I put on her shoes just to show her how to walk in her shoes (it was a birthday present). Anticipating her to walk (I thought she could walk at least at 10 month old - but NAY. Takpe, let your child grow according to her own phase and never compare with other babies - or yourself) is kind of nerve-wrecking because people keep on asking "Amna dah pandai jalan ke?" - I kept on my positive tone by saying "She's walking but she just refuses to show her real talent". Babies are individuals - the mantra I keep on using when people (especially relatives) who are SO EAGER to show off how their grandchildren/nieces/nephews/children could roll over/crawl/walk/talk/top achiever at a very young age. No point of refuting these people with your uttered information-according-to-the-paediatricians because it is just seemingly unimportant to them.

Anyway, speaking of showing off, we have been shoved with the false information of "Fat babies are healthy babies". NO. If a fat baby is fat because she was fed with formula milk, it's confirmed because the sugar in the formula milk made her so. Yes, chubby babies are adorable and nice to pinch the cheeks but hey, ALL BABIES ARE CUTE NO MATTER WHAT - be them thin, chubby, small, big, awkward looking - just face it - all mothers think their babies are the best/cutest babies in the whole wide world, or the universe.

So if you feel like you child is small, DO NOT COMPARE WITH other siblings/cousins/friends' babies because as long as she feeds on your milk/eating/poo/pee/very active - everything is normal. Come on, if you yourself is a small frame/petite mom and got married to a petite *ehem* guy, how could your child be so bulky/big/chubby? Think of the rationality and being sensible :P

Ok. That's all.

P/s : Another manual coming soon - but I haven't started drawing, just yet ;)

I agree. I suka je ada perbincangan ilmiah ni hehehehe... so takde hal nak lepas perasaan ke apa - I pun selalu lepas perasaan kekekekekek~

Lately Amna dah melonjong - pipi je remain chubby but lemak kat perut dah jadi lean - except perut buncit sikit haahahah..

As long as Ali n Aliya is ok, makan semua ok - jangan layan cakap orang. Chubby salah, kurus salah. Ni macam cerita Luqman Hakin dan anak dia naik keldai tu heheheh..

Mommies know best but mommies wityh knowledge know better than the former kan? :D

Lain orang lain la caranya kan. Biar je. Nak bebel pun our blog kan. Wait until I tepek ada sorang babysitter tu meroyan sebab katanya baby 6 bulan dah kena bagi makan - lapar. My friend cakap nak tengok the son show the cues : duduk, tumbuh gigi etc. Pastu Bs tu cakap "kenapa nak kena tunggu? Kesian budak".

get what I mean? Sampai katanya kenapa nak refer pakar, bukannya baby tak pandai telan pun. How ignorant kan? :P

Yang hadith sahih etc tu ke? I nak kena berguru dulu ni. Sebab mengikut bacaan mesti adalah huraian yang jelas - sanad n matan bagi perawi.

So before bergempur kena mendalami issue heheh~
