This blog started as a blog for my daugther, Zara, whom we were blessed to have after 5years of trying and praying. We have then moved on to my own domain, after our 2nd girl, Zaria was born. Now this will be my space, for my views, my recipes, my take.

Skinny Zara
After starving herself and survived only on breast milk for 4 days (Fri, Sat, Sun, Mon) , she finally regained her appetite, and started eating (solids) again today.
Her had lots of biscuits, bread and half a bowl of porridge. I normally limit her intake of biscuits (worried about constipation), however, today I told my maid to give as many as she wanted, as long as she is eating them.
As for her porridge dinner, the food critic refused to be fed using her usual kiddy spoon, turning her head to the side when the spoon reached her. She kept pointing to the chopstick nearby. So, I tried with chopstick and she happily took them. It's not easy to scoop up runny porridge with chopstick, luckily my chopstick skill is quite good, and I managed.
For an already relatively thin toddler, she is now even thinner. Her ribs are jutting out now! Her stool has hardened although still a bit soft, and she'd stopped vomiting. She's recovering! I'll try to fatten the next few days.

oo....good to hear that she is getting well!
that's great news, now to get some meat on her... ivan's also getting thin, can feel his ribs when he's lying flat, aigh!
Wah, Zara, ur mama putting your half naked sexy pic on the net lar!!! LOL
Dun worry too much Zara is thin... as long as she is getting all the right nutrition, it's OK. :-) Glad to know she is getting better!!
For girl, tall and slim is good thing! :) My girl also very slim! :P
My sister always tell me his son never eat well like my son. But now boy, he is fat with a big stomach.
Haha...I am sure Zara will be fine with a caring mommy like u. :P
whenever my girl falls sick, she'd have no appetite and would be as skinny as a bamboo stick.
but once she recovers she'd eat and eat, and she ballooned to her usual self. in fact, she looked better each time she recovers from a flu!
i was told that when a child recovers, they grow bigger faster. not obese, but they look very healthy!
eh, macam my Annabelle aje? no worry, she will gain back her weight very soon :D.
From a familiar Christmas tune:
Let it be, let it be, let it be.

Ivan also lost weight? I think walking about makes you loose weight too.
Yeah, I'll have to fatten her.

Annie,
Actually a nurse I know in Sunway medical (used to give Zara baby massage) told me I should mix a spoon of minyak bawang in Zara's porridge to fatten her. But.. 1 spoon of oil.. so jelat, i didn't do it la.
Jesslyn,
Zara tall because Daddy is tall. He's a 6footer. Not sure when she's grown up, how tall will it be, just hope not as tall as Daddy or else hard to get husband. :P

My sister's son is now in primary one. He used to be very skinny like my son. When they breath in, I can count how many rib bones are there.
Don't fret! Appetite will be back once she's well! :)
