Caden had a slight fever after his 4 months immunizations. He was fussy and had trouble sleeping. Today is the 3rd day after his immunizations. His body is not as hot as yesterday but at the same time he has not recover fully yet. For the past 2 days, he has been crying for mommy to hold him a lot and refused to be hold or put to sleep by his baby-sitter, so I have been doing nothing much other than spent my time with Caden -- of course I am alright with that... When Caden need me, I will always be there!!!
Update by his 4 months check up:
Weight: 7.3 kg or 16 pounds and 0.6 oz
Height: 66 cm or 26 inch

Lunch w/ Ima Nanny
Tommorow Caden and mommy will be going back to Singapore to meet daddy!!! So Ima Nanny invited us for lunch @ Keyaki, Shangrilla Hotel. She wanted to see Caden before we go. Since we arrived at the restaurant Caden was a bit cranky, he wanted us to hold him and hungry was probably another reason but when I gave him my breast, he did not want to suck on it. So then I let him walked around with the baby-sitter. At almost 2 pm, it's time for Ima Nanny to get back to the office to work so that she could buy Caden moreee toyssss...... ^_^ Thanks for the food, Ima...it was goodd!!! I could taste the salmon sushi in mommy's breast-milk!!!

to puncak...
@ Amen Restaurant, PuncakCaden and I went to puncak last weekend. We drove from Jakarta on Friday, January 12 and went back home on Sunday, January 14. At first I was reluctant to go because it was quite a long drive to yeye's (Paul's aunt) house in Puncak -- about 2 hours -- and I was afraid Caden won't be comfortable and would cry a lot in the car and at the new bedroom there. But Paul's parents and yeye's family really wanted Caden to come along, so then we went.
The journey was not bad. Caden wasn't cry at all, he sat on his car seat and looked at the outside scenery and then fell a sleep. He was cranky at times when he is hungry but he wasn't eat that much anyway in the car. I was afraid he would get dizzy and throw-up as the winding road was pretty bad (I myself felt a bit dizzy). I was also afraid he won't sleep well in the new bedroom but it turn out not bad at all. He was a little fuzzy, of course but I was still able to manage it.
We went to factory outlet there and bought a lot of clothes for Caden. ^)^

more milk?
I have been feeling quite happy lately. It seems like I am producing much more milk than before, sometimes it even leak. Yey!!! I am so happy and proud that my decision of pumping my breasts even when they are not producing any milk really helps.
Caden has been feeding straight from my breast with only a little supplement from the formula for the past month and when the formla is given, that is only when I am gone past his feeding time -- so I tried as much as possible to come back home on time at his feeding time.
Paul, ai Ayun and Mom has not been supporting on the breastfeeding idea. Paul supports me on the breastfeeding idea so that Caden will have better health and future but he wants me to loose weight asap. How can I do that when I always feel hungry after breastfeeding? Also, you are not suppose to go on diet when you are breastfeeding as you may not giving your child enough vitamins and minerals.
As for ai, she said my milk production is very little and would not be enough to feed Caden (she predicted that my supply will dry up by Caden 3 months old). She used to insist that Caden would need to be given formula after every breastfeeding. And mom, she said breastfeeding will make my breast look ugly and plus I could not go on diet soon when I am still breastfeeding.
*sigh*
I know I look so very ugly now – very fat. But I think giving breast milk for Caden is the best option for his future. I will loose weight (I promised) but wait until I had stop breastfeeding. I guess some people are not that patient when it comes to your appearance.
But so far, I will stick into my decision. I am determined to breastfeed Caden for at least 1 year – I don’t care what other people say. Now, the most important thing is what is best for Caden.

popo birthday...
Happy Birthday, PopoJanuary 2, 2007
Yey...it's popo (word for grandma) birthday. Six of us (Paul's parents, Paul, me, Caden and ai) went to Fajar Restaurant -- the one closer to Pondok Indah --- to have dinner. The food was okay, although the chicken rice -- just the rice tasted unusual, but the restaurant itself looked quite dirty...plus they allow people to smoke inside the restaurant. ihhh...I hate the smell of it and more importantly I did not want Caden to smell that toxic smell that could cause lung/brain damage!!! I was not enjoying my time at the dinner.. I feel I just want to finish the food as fast as possible and get out of here. Luckily it was just a small dinner, so there was not any time wasted on chatting with each other.
