Parenting made easier with Uni-Care. Enjoy up to 50% off at Shopee's 5.5 Brands Festival!

Today, Brianna asked me if I was going to take a nap so she could use my phone. Lol! It's funny because, when they were still toddlers, I always let them have naps so I could take a break from parenting, even just for a few minutes or an hour, if I'm lucky. Haha!

Parenting, especially to little children, is tiring. They are little balls of energy who don't seem to get tired. You have to keep an eye on them and never let them out of your sight if you don't want messy surprises. And not to mention the never-ending cleaning. It's a good thing that parenting is now made easier with partners like Uni-Care that we can count on during messy times

Johnson & Johnson hygiene essentials up to 50% off only at Shopee's 5.5 Brands Festival!

Building good hygiene habits starts at home. And, as a mom, I make sure I let my kids understand how important hygiene is and how being clean can keep them healthy and away from sickness. I started them young and I'm glad it grew on them. They are even more cautious ever since the pandemic started.

So, what are the hygiene measures we practice at home? We take proper baths every day; tooth brushing three times a day; and since the kids are growing up already, I am slowly introducing mouthwash to them. Handwashing when needed, like before and after eating or using the toilet. And because the pandemic calls for frequent handwashing, our hands tend to get dry, so we also put on lotion. With all these measures, aside from food, our shopping list heavily consists of hygiene essentials. It's a good thing that shopping for hygiene essentials is now made easier with Shopee. And, starting today, April 26-May 7, you can buy Johnson & Johnson products up to 50% off at Shopee's 5.5 Brands Festival!

Pampers launches their Newborn Kit this April 14 only on Shopee's Brand Spotlight!

After nine long months of carrying your baby in your womb, having gone through the different changes in your body for three trimesters of pregnancy, here comes the fourth trimester. Yep, that exists! 

The fourth trimester is the idea of a transitional period between birth and 12 weeks postpartum during which your baby is adjusting to the world and you’re adjusting to your baby. It's hard and overwhelming, I know. Been there, done that. Having to go through the changes and the pains in your body while having to take care of your newborn. That's why it's important that every mom gets all the support they need from the people around them. A mom needs to recover physically and mentally to be able to take care of her newborn. And sleeping is going to be a luxury. So you have to be aware of the reasons that might cause your baby to stay up at night. One of which is a full diaper. That's why it's important to invest in diapers that will keep your baby comfortable and protected all night long. As an experienced parent, I can say that Pampers diapers worked for us!

And, I have good news for you mommas. Pampers is launching their newest product, the Newborn Kit, on April 14 only on Shopee's Brand Spotlight!

5 voices in your head that you immediately need to shut out

Have you heard about negative bias? It's a psychological standpoint, wherein people gravitate toward negative information even if something positive is equally or more present. People tend to remember negative words more than their positive counterparts. Eventually, these words evolve into internal voices that induce doubt, anxiety, panic, and other unpleasant emotions that keep a person from living her most authentic self.

While having negative thoughts circling the mind is natural, it also tends to erode one’s own self-esteem, eventually affecting one’s ability to function properly. Acknowledging them when they surface is an ideal first step towards shutting them down.

In celebration of International Women’s Day, last March 8, here’s a list of the most common intrusive thoughts that most women deal with:

The Invisible Battle: How to Watch Out and Speak Out against Verbal Abuse

In a recent Social Weather Stations survey, 1 out of 4 or 25% of Filipinos, aged 15-49, are revealed to have experienced some form of violence during the ongoing health crisis. This includes verbal abuse, which has become a hidden battle faced by most women on a regular basis.

Verbal abuse can often be confusing not just for the survivors but also for the abusers because it manifests differently—gaslighting, judging, blaming, name-calling, condescension, and verbal threats, among others.

Matching Mommy Daughter Bracelets

Threening in our white dresses and Personalized Matching Mommy Daughter
Bracelets by Sparkles by Erin

"A daughter is God's way of saying, 'Thought you could use a lifelong friend.'"- Unknown

Mom and daughters indeed have a special kind of bond. And I can say that becoming a mom has brought me even closer to my mom. I now understand her better, her ways of disciplining my siblings and me, and the things she did for us. Apart from the many life lessons she taught us, she also is a cool and kikay mom. I'm the youngest of four siblings, my sister and I have a seven-year age difference. So I was my mom's baby and enjoys dressing me up, which I also do now to my daughters, Athena and Brianna.

Although my mom would dress me up and doll me up when I was a little kid, I wasn't really into it growing up. Though I love to wear nice clothes, you'd rarely see me wearing any jewelry or accessories. And, I wasn't also the "twinning or matchy-matchy outfit kind of mom" well, not until recently. I suddenly began enjoying wearing "threening" outfits with my daughters and realized that it wouldn't be long until they'd want to do this with me. So I am cherishing these moments with them. 

And just recently, we got our first-ever matching mommy daughter bracelets from Sparkles by Erin. Yay! 

Usually, I just get twinning accessories for them, so I was really excited about this. 

We received it at perfect timing because right after the kids' exams, we went on a quick trip to Tagaytay. So we took the opportunity to dress up and have our photos taken with our bracelets!

Look how pretty they are, they even have our names on them!

Sparkles by Erin is an online shop selling handmade and personalized mom and baby bracelets for as young as newborn to adult sizes. They have been in the biz for 3 years since 2018, which really only started as a hobby until early last year when the owner decided to give it more focus given today's social and economic situations.

What makes their items unique?

• Bracelets are available for as young as newborns. It's very rare for you to find bracelets made for babies, right?

• They take pride in their products for being safe because they use a fixed wire to make them, thus it is impossible for little hands to break under normal conditions. (Of course, it is advisable for parents to still practice caution as the bracelets still contain materials that are choking hazards. )

• Can be personalized with a name or statement at no extra cost.

• Customizable - choose your preferred bead color, lock and wire finish.

• Classy & charming designs

• The materials they use are 14k gold electroplated brass

• Non-tarnish

• and hypoallergenic.

When you buy from them, your items will come in a dainty jewelry box and pouch.

I just realized that matching bracelets are something we can continue using even as they grow up. They may feel awkward wearing matching outfits but not bracelets, right? Haha! This momma is just being hopeful.

Anyway, Mother's Day is just right around the corner. These matching mommy daughter bracelets would be a perfect gift! Get a pair each for you and your mini-me/s, or include them on your wishlist and have someone purchase them for you as a gift. Get one for your mom too, or gift your mommy friends. I'm sure they'll love it!

Check out Sparkles by Erin's website for all their designs or have them customize them for you.

Baby Brianna

When you're a mom, you only want the best for your children. It starts the very moment they're conceived, the 9 long months we carry them in our womb, the day they were born until they grow up. It never stops. I am actually getting emotional right now. Oh, how fast time flies! All my 3 children are not so little anymore. I have a pre-teen, a tweener and a pre-tweener! I can't help but reminisce the time when they were still babies. So mommies and daddies, enjoy your babies while they are that tiny. The days may be long, but the years are short!

I know babies could be a handful, and motherhood doesn't come with a manual. That's why having a solid support group means a lot. It's also good to know that there are brands and products we can depend on for our needs and our babies, like Pigeon!

Cleene CLIO makes Clean Teeth possible for Families this World Oral Health Day 2022

March 20, 2022, is World Oral Health Day! I took this opportunity to talk to my kids about oral health. I emphasized that being healthy should be holistic, so we shouldn't be just paying attention to just one aspect of our health. We're already past the struggle of getting them to brush their teeth. So basically, it was just a review and storytelling where I shared about their first time toothbrushing.

I also reminded them that not because we're just at home, they shouldn't be brushing at all. In fact, they should, because aside from it being basic hygiene, they have been eating a lot. We also talked about how difficult it is to access healthcare services during the pandemic. And that includes dental services. So yeah, as cliche as it is, prevention is better than cure!

And, this World Oral Health Day, I represented by my blog "She's The Mom", as part of Mommy Bloggers Philippines community is celebrating with Cleene CLIO by inviting everyone to celebrate by practising proper oral healthcare with their families.

How I prioritize my family's all-around nutrition

In our family, there's no single person who gets special treatment. It's not the kids, not me or my husband. I make sure that it's equal for every one of us in every aspect - love, care, attention and nutrition.

So how do I prioritize our family's all-around nutrition?

Best Shopee Finds: Casual bags for less!

I love bags! But, I prefer handbags or small bags as long as my essentials can fit in - hand sanitiser, wet wipes, tissue paper, lippies, wallet and my phone. Besides, I rarely go out of the house. When I do, it's mostly just to run errands. Lately, though, Jaear and I have been going out more on weekends. So I like to dress up sometimes, and of course, my fit wouldn't be complete without a bag. However, almost all my bags are too big or too small. So I went bag shopping online. 

If you know me, I'm a cheapskate. Hehe. I don't like spending a fortune on stuff, including bags. I don't care if it's not branded as long as it looks good and serves its purpose, then it's all good! I've always been like this, even before I became a mom. 

If you are just like me, I'm sure you'd love these bags I recently bought on Shopee.

Does size really matter?

Does size really matter?

It’s a question that has long intrigued the minds of many. And in many everyday situations, size certainly does matter. By going big, there’s more to be enjoyed, loads more to treat yourself to, and, simply put: You get more out of the things you buy and get your money’s worth. 

When it comes to bigger and better, Pantene changes the game with their 3-Minute Miracle Conditioner. Compared to the previous 9mL sachet, the sachet comes in bigger at 13mL but keeps the same salon-inspired ingredients and maintains the affordable price of P6* giving everyone who uses it Salontastic and lagkit-free hair.

Cute and Personalized Dog Tags for our furbaby!

Yoru The Toy Poodle just turned one, today! Yoru is the first-ever pet, that I've really owned and taken care of since he was just around 2 months old. I remember having family pet dogs and cats when I was little and we had Covid (my sister in law's Shih Tzu) just last year. But, having your own pet feels completely different. The bond, the attachment, the love. It all feels surreal! It's like having another child.

Yoru was Jaear's gift to me on Mother's Day last year. Early last year, maybe due to the pandemic or whatnot, I just had this longingness for a baby. But, I knew I am not ready for the responsibility of taking care of another life again. Or will I ever be? Hehe. Then Covid came along. We took care of her for months and when she finally went home, I longed to have my own pet. So, that was when Yoru came into our life. And, fast forward to today, he's now 1 year old and has been with us for 10 months. I do have a lot of stories to share, but I will be saving that for another post soon, more than one post actually. :)

As of this writing, I am just letting the time pass because we will be having a small celebration here at home for this 1st birthday! I'll share more about it too! Yay!

For now, I just want to share some of my Best Buys from Shopee this 2022 for Yoru - the cute dog tags and dog collars!
