"Mommy"



After being called as a girlfriend, fiancĂ©, bride and wife, the next role that every woman will hold is a mom. Definitely, the word “mommy” is music to our ears, especially those carrying their first child. When we realized that I was already carrying our first child, my husband started calling me “mommy”. Nothing beats that, as of now... Probably until this little Javier comes out from my tummy and can finally call me “mommy.”

Whether called mom, mother, mommy, mama, nanay or inay, the role of being a mom doesn’t vary and starts first thing you realize that you’re pregnant. Though still inside our tummies, we need to make sure that we eat right, drink our meds and move a little slowly. Staying healthy is the best way we take care of our babies until they come out and see everybody.

It feels good that as early, someone calls you “mommy” – the title I will hold for the rest of my life. We’re halfway there – we’re getting more excited especially now that I can feel our baby moving inside my tummy. I’m carrying God’s best gift and nothing beats being called “Mommy”.

To all moms, happy mother’s day! (Well, belated) To my mommy, you’re still the best mom! I hope I’ll be the second best :)

To all moms-to-be like me, let’s claim it! We are already mommies :) Happy Mother’s day!

For Parents with Newborn: How to Get More Sleep

Not an expert on this one but I just want to share how we managed Sofia's sleep at night. When people ask me if I'm getting enough sleep since Sofia came, they are always surprised to hear that I get enough sleep ever since. Of course the first few weeks were zombie sleeping but it was just because I need to feed my daughter every 2 hours to stimulate my milk. But Sofia did not really (and is not) give us a hard time to get enough sleep.  I've heard some moms whose babies were wide awake and would play in the middle of the night. My daughter never did that. She'd only wake up and cry because of normal stuff like colic, too hot or too cold room temperature, wet diaper or simply wanted to be fed but not at all, because she wanted to play. So for moms with newborns coming, here are my tips. Some I got from a pediatrician. 1. Breastfeed and co-sleep. Of course, so to minimize the need to move. The first two and a half months, co-sleeping and breastfeeding did...

First Plane Ride

Do you remember the first time you rode the plane? Nowadays, it’s very easy for kids to experience their first plane ride as fares are cheaper. Thanks to budget airlines that once had a vision that every person can ride a plane once in their lives. I took my first plane ride when I was 5 years old. Lucky to experience that young, I was with my mom and my sister when all of us rode the plane for the first time to travel. I had no idea what was this travel is all about, even did not have any knowledge where we’re going. All I knew was that, we’re riding the plane and we were going somewhere far where my dad studied his Master’s degree. Not all kids, during that time, had that chance. And definitely, not all kids had the chance to travel to Europe so I am most thankful to my lola (who’s in US) who gave us this opportunity. Here’s my picture back then. We had a stopover in Hongkong Airport and this innocent kid asked her mom why we were getting down the plane. My mom answered...

My Married Life

Yesterday officially marked our 1 st month as husband and wife. It’s been a while since I have last posted here in my blog. These past few weeks were spent with a lot of errands since the “one week before the big day” started. Ever since I started my two week leave, my life went around preparing for the wedding, packing/unpacking my clothes, practicing loom bands and fixing my name. I think that explains all – why until now, I have yet to do the reviews for my suppliers. And by the way, I have to thank my suppliers once again.  I still owe them big time. I’ll make a separate blog entry about the wedding. Right now, let me just express myself as a newly wedded wife. After the wedding, we enjoyed a 5-day vacation in Bali, Indonesia and went back to reality. Life then became a little different. I started living in Bulacan, well, temporarily in my in-laws. We're waiting for our house to finish probably this August or September and then we're good to go! Living with my husba...
