Several months have passed, now Nakula and Sadewa are two years old. The twins grew up very well. Although to speak is not yet smooth and only master a few vocabulary, but Nakula and Sadewa are very active. Especially for things related to physical activity such as running around, both are very active.
"Nang-Nang has been two years, Mama. Is it not time for the two of them to leave ASI?" ask Satria.
Breastfeeding or weaning is the process and effort of stopping breast milk for babies. Exclusive breast milk is given when the baby is 0 months to 2 years old. Now, the twins are 2 years old, it is time to release ASI.
"Yes yes, Mas. Nang-Nang we've been two years. It doesn't feel so bad. I think he was born yesterday, it's been two years now. I will sound first to Nang-Nang so do not be surprised," Indi replied.
Satria nodded her head. Anything later he just wants to wean is done with love. Satria understands that in this transition the mother, father, and child will work together with each other. To succeed of course. In addition, children who are two years old are also growing nutritional needs, they also began to be introduced to a variety of solid foods with balanced nutrition of course.
Just talking about Nang-Nang, now that Nakula and Sadewa are close to Mama. Both compact ask ASI.
"Mrs ... Num ...."
Nakula and Sadewa asked for a drink. Drinking in question is also drinking ASI. Indi gave ASI first to his two sons. Actually, Indi was lucky because he was often told Nakula and Sadewa were also good if drinking ASI. Not biting like a baby shark. It used to be, until it blisters and bleeds. But not anymore after. However, now that the children are two years old, it is time to release ASI.
"Nakula and Sadewa, tomorrow starts not Nen yahh .. if you want to drink milk in a glass or pacifier well. Nang-Nang is getting bigger now. Mama's ASI was also long less for the two of you."
The twins looked at her mother's face. A moment later Sadewa took off the breast milk she had originally drunk, she then walked over and took her ASIP dodot and handed it to her Mama.
"Num .. This," he said amusingly by pointing.
"Yes, starting tomorrow, you guys drink it in a dodot or a glass well. You both learn to freelance ASI, Mama also learn," said Indi.
Seeing her twin brother take a dodot, then Nakula also stopped drinking his ASI. He also ran and took his ASIP dodot.
"Nen ... num num," he said with a shout.
Either both of them really know the speech that has just been conveyed by Indi or just reflective action only. Indi and Satria laughed to themselves. Then, the four of them hugged each other.
"Pinter yeah, Nang ... Papa will buy formula milk whose nutritional content is balanced for you. Healthy is always well, Nang-Nangnya Papa," said Satria.
Although not so much drama, a few hours later Nakula and Sadewa who were sleepy after playing until noon began to cry. Both are compact to ask for ASI drink.
"Mama's got that pain, honey. Yuk, we make milk yuk. Pa, help make yuk milk for Nang-Nang" Indi told her husband.
The Papa who was feeling good to see the highlights of football matches on Youtube connected to television was immediately waiting for him for a moment. Satria immediately stood up and held her two sons.
"Yuk, here's Papa's cradle," said Satria.
Finally they headed to the kitchen, Indi made formula milk for Nakula and Sadewa. One child is made in one dodot. A little warm indeed. Trying formula milk for the first time, their tongues come out. As if guessing the different taste of milk with ASI.
"Cu ... Ma," pinta Nakula. Which is meant by Nakula wants her Mama's milk. Milk ASI. For babies who are used to breast milk, when replaced with formula they will also adapt to the taste. Nakula and Sadewa were like that too, on his chin until he was exposed to milk.
"The introduction used to be the same as well. It's also delicious. Make Nang-Nang healthy," Indi replied.
Satria then took a tissue and cleaned her son's chin. Just smile at Papa Satria. Although Satria was sorry to see the children who began to sleepy and cry.
"Once the ASI was heavy huh, Pa? Sometimes I can't bear to see them cry" Indi said.
"Must have the heart, honey. This is part of the learning process as well. Kids learn, we learn too. I'm with the three of you" said Satria.
Indi was almost crying. He felt more unbearable with Nakula and Sadewa who had not matched formula milk. In addition, the cries of his two children were also very tight. His entire face was wet from the tears that kept flowing. One baby cry alone makes a full house, now two babies are really both crying.
"Yuk, same Papa yuk," Satria asked.
Finally Satria held Nakula and Sadewa, taking her in the room. There Satria diverted attention from Nakula and Sadewa, still carrying a dodot containing formula milk.
"Here play with Papa. Papa read the book to Nakula and Sadewa, to Nang-Nangnya Papa," Satria said.
Start Satria take Dinosaur book, there is a type of plant-eating dinosaur that has a long neck called Diplodocus or Brontosaurus.
"This is called Brontosaurus, Nang. His neck is long. Why did God create Brontosaurus with a very long neck? So that Brontosaurus can eat the leaves of towering trees."
Hearing the voice of his father reading the story, the cries of both subsided. Until Sadewa seemed to ask though it was not clear. "Ni, num cu?" tanyakanya.
The two-year-old boy asked by showing him the picture of Brontosaurus, did he drink milk? Satria then shook her head.
"No, Brontosaurus doesn't drink milk, he drinks water. Just like Nang-Nang if you bribed your brother to eat, drink water. Water is also healthy, milk is healthy. Milk is healthy too. Drink well, bobok afternoon first. Papa read later Tyrannosaurus and other types of Dino well, his favorite Nang-Nang."
Finally after Satria managed to distract his two sons, Nakula and Sadewa began to drink milk from the pacifier. Formula milk, no longer breast milk. The story of the dinosaurs was read until Nakula and Sadewa fell asleep.
Satria breathed a sigh of relief and smiled looking at her two sleeping sons by holding her milk dodot. "Bobok well, take a break. Be Healthy, Papa. Without ASI, you will also grow and be healthy. Time to release ASI, your nutritional needs are increasing, Nang."
Satria said all of that in a word. The key to losing ASI success is not only in the mother, but in the father figure as well. When you're tired and sometimes you don't have the heart, you can take on the role. Just like Satria, who tries to distract his children and provide understanding with simple language that is easily understood by children.
