TOP 5 ADVICE TO FIRST-TIME MOMS

A few days ago, I got a message from my Facebook Page from an expectant mommy asking for an advice as she’s a first-time mom. I gave her my #1 advice which is “rest as much as you can” (and a few more). I couldn’t stop thinking of her so I thought “how can I …

Thursday Thoughts: What Kept us Busy Recently?

June 22, 2017November 10, 2018 by WAHMa Nilyn

I just realized that my last blog post was seven days ago already. I’ve not written anything for this week yet. Where was I? I guess I took another short hiatus, lol! Kidding aside, the main reason why I couldn’t write often now was that our youngest sister is not here anymore, she’s back to …

To All Mothers Around the World…

May 14, 2017August 22, 2018 by WAHMa Nilyn

You who had mixed emotions the moment you see those two lines on the pregnancy test you bought at a local drugstore;  You who suffered nausea, headache, dizziness, and morning sickness; You who happily watch your tummy grow little by little each day; You who was completely shocked the moment you felt your child’s first …

WAHM Diaries: Nate Talks

May 12, 2017August 22, 2018 by WAHMa Nilyn

Breaking the negativity from my previous post, I’d like to talk about my funny convos with Nate recently. Don’t we just love the kids’ little minds? They amaze us in ways we don’t expect. It’s wonderful! One afternoon: Nate: “Ma, ‘di na ako baby e, youth na ako. Just like ate Juday”Me: *Jaw dropped*(Juday is one …

WAHM Diaries: Nate and His Fever

April 2, 2017August 22, 2018 by WAHMa Nilyn

It has been a habit for me to wake up early during Sundays. I used to be so tardy during this day that we were always late in our Sunday School back then. Thank God for His help, we have not been tardy in the church for months now. As I write this, my little …

“Let Kids Be Kids” VS “Because I Said So”

November 29, 2016August 22, 2018 by WAHMa Nilyn

One day, after I logged out from work, I received a thought provoking email from Google Alerts about an article from Parent Herald that talks about the 2 major parenting approaches. This really made me think about my parenting approach to Nate and I thought I should really share this with other parents. In our …

4 na mga Hamon ng Pinalaganap na Pagpapasuso

August 22, 2016August 22, 2018 by WAHMa Nilyn

Bilang pag-alala na ang buwan ng Agosto ay Buwan ng Wikang Filipino at Buwan ng Pagpapasuso, susubukan kong magsulat ng purong Filipino lamang ukol sa paksang “mas pinatagal na pagpapasuso”, o kung sa Ingles ay “extended breastfeeding“. Bilang mamamayang pilipino na lumaki sa Mindanao at namulat sa idyomang “bisaya”, ako ay hindi sanay magsalita at …
