It’s 1:48 a.m., December 23, 2021. I woke up to a burst of worry if our newborn was okay because his last feeding was at 10:00 p.m. It felt like I slept the whole day only having roughly three hours of continuous sleep this round (we started with 30 minutes to 1 hour of sleep in between feedings; 2 hours was luxury; either was surprisingly sufficient).๐
A 15-Week Long Miscarriage
Apparently, it could happen that long. I Googled and most of other moms’ miscarriages lasted around 2-3 weeks. They talked about heavy bleeding, which I didnโt have. And then meds used in the US is different from what we have here in the Philippines. So, I’m writing this hoping whoever needs help stumbles upon this…

Are you making an impact?
Impact. What does impact really mean? I came across a video of Simon Sinek where he asked that question. Are you making an impact? Or do you feel like your life is just a drop in the ocean?
It’s okay to be okay.
I am praying for another rainbow baby. Not to be a rainbow baby because of Brei, but because of our third.ย
Our First Christmas Tradition
Two days after Christmas, after all the family gatherings, we were finally alone in the room, just the three of us #marasigang. We held off giving Noah our gifts for him because he was already so stimulated with so much happenings, people, and gifts (not complaining).๐ I found the alone time an opportunity to give…
#Noah1withtheForce
It was a no-brainer. If it weren’t Star Wars, what would it be? Talking about our dear Chadric Noah’s first birthday gathering from years back. If you’re wanting to do a simple yet meaningful celebration for your child’s first birthday (after all this quarantine is over…), I hope this post helps. ?
He closed his eyes and slept!
Noah was pulling my arm to go to our room to sleep. He still nurses himself to sleep, and there are times when he asks for milk in the middle of the night. At 8 weeks old he started sleeping through the night, from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. like clockwork! Somewhere around four to…
Horror or Honor
There’s that itch to write again for how many days now but I don’t know what to write about. Then I remembered saying in a recent post, “Writing helps me process and remember that which I want to chronicleโlife and learnings. Writing helps me remember.” So how was my week and what do I not…
Filipino Resto: Cianรด
I am not fond of dining at Filipino restaurants as I’ve always felt I don’t get value for my money because I can eat the dishes at home. ?ย But Pao craved for sinigang on his birthday (super late post, diba?! But I drafted this last year. Hehe!!!) and we found this nice place near my…
