Margot unfortunately has CMPA so isn’t able to have dairy. This has made weaning a tad more complicated when it comes to pre made foods as a lot of baby jars/pouches include some form of dairy. These are our favourite finds that Margot loves to have!
Just as a note - we do a mix of BLW and purées so Margot does have food that’s ‘ahead’ of her age group. We do what works for us💖

Memilih susu untuk anak itu seperti memilih teman perjalanan untuk masa tumbuh kembang anak. Yang banyak dibeli biasanya bukan hanya karena iklan, tapi karena rasanya disukai anak, mudah ditemukan di market place dan banyak orang tua merasa cocok setelah mencobanya. Tapi perlu diingat, susu yang paling cocok belum tentu yang paling mahal atau paling laris. Setiap anak memiliki kebutuhan dan kondisi pencernaan yang berbeda, jadi kecocokan tetap menjadi faktor utama.

We don't let our kid have lots of screen time but also, she's a very outdoors kid naturally and refuses to be inside if she can :) when we're inside, we try to put on things that we can possibly all engage in or where we are singing/learning songs together. We also don't want to see uncomfortable subject matters if possible and focus on learning matter, like language or pre-school learning. Hope any of this helps when you need!
Whether it's for your little one or for another child, here are my fave items from Melissa & Doug! I love that their products are wooden, have wonderful craftsmanship, and they have top notch customer service!

Actually, there are many recommendations for gifts for babies, but this remains a challenge in itself. When buying a gift for a baby or child, you need to consider the many aspects of safety, comfort and educational benefits that the baby can get.

The following is a list of baby equipment that is suitable for gifts.

Bath toys should be fun, not little mould factories. These are our favourite mould-free bath toys for kids made from non-toxic, sustainable materials that are designed to dry properly.

Take it from someone who did everything the hard way when it comes to parenting and then committed to do it the opposite way the second time around. Being a mom and being responsible for a little mind and is a lot of pressure and it’s so important to create ease and simplicity in the places that you can. I hope this list helps with relieving some stress in the every day chaos so you can embrace the beauty in all of it! Happy peaceful parenting 💖
