Moms of the Childbirth and Child Care Threads - Part 5

[Grayce]

Tin, as always night shift tayo

kim, kung fine lines ang concern mo, i highly recommend shiseido. for me mas ok cya kaysa sa kiehl's kasi hit or miss ang kiehl's eh... meron kiehl's na line reducing eye brightening concentrate, d cya ok for everyday use since it has the tendency to "sting" the eye area and based on reviews online (sa makeupalley.com ko majority nabasa ang infos btw) dapat every other day ang gamit and yung iba pinapatungan pa ng ibang eye creme on top of it.

sa shiseido, ok [textspeak!] benefiance and yung super contour. if you find benefiance too creamy, super contour will do. may iba kasi na madali magka milia pag sobrang thick ang consistency. so far d naman ako nagkamilia with benefiance, thin layer lang talaga ang inaapply ko.

^Grayce have you tired the cleansing oil of Shiseido? I've always wanted to try it dahil ang hirap tanggalin ng eyeliner. Dahil jan hinde na lang tuloy ako nagla-line hehe.

[Grayce]

^yup. muji parin ako try mo muji sis, i heard mas mura pa dyan ang muji kaysa dito. i use the one for sensitive skin. i prefer this over shu's cleansing oil. natatanggal naman nya yung urban decay 24/7 eyeliner so i'm not complaining for the price

andaya nyo dyan sa pinas, halos lahat ng brands nagoopen na dyan tapos mas mura pa H&M and uniqlo magoopen na daw this year dyan.

[huckleberry]

Lisa - sagutin ko na tanong mo.  Happy puffs lang na-try ko, banana and apple flavors. matabang sya pero gusto naman ni Audrey.  kung ayaw ni hubby mo ng earth's best baka gusto nyo i-try beech nut, may mga snacks din sila.  sa walmart meron nyan pero sa babies r us wala.

[neszreyes]

ako naman no stretchmarks dahil sa bio oil pero gumaamit rin ako ng bodyshop body butter and cocoa stick nung 1st-2nd trimester ko.

yes sis grayce, ako lately nalang nag bio-oil after giving birth pero ok siya..

[simplykristine08]

Grayce, naku sis nakatulog ako ha. Hindi kinaya mag night shift. Lol.

Van, wala ako sis alam eh. Pero try mo sa Rustan's and Baby Co. Dame sila dun cushion eh, baka may kasya sa highchair ni Zoe

[satumom]

good morning mommies!

grayce, natawa naman ako sinabi mo na nagmumukhang bold star ka hahahaha   ako pigeon breast pump lang ginamit ko dati padala lang from japan ng SIL ko.  Nahirapan ako gamitin kase yung instruction hapon hahahaha talaga mag open na din uniqlo? gusto ko yun e, pag pumupunta ko dyan, di pwedeng wala akong mabili sa uniqlo saka yung milk tea ng muji

tin, countdown starts now... then, party party na

hello, domestic diva

[marose17]

Hello domestic diva!

Grayce, I used the Avent Isis Duo electric pump.  Okay siya for me kasi closed system at gusto ko ang tote bag and accessories that came with it.  I have also used the Medela PISA.  Mas malakas ang suction ng Medela.  Same lang ang output ko with both pumps.

Van, I am using Shiseido's Benefiance eye cream now and I like how it works.  I've used a lot of eye creams.  My top choices aside from Benefiance are Chanel's Precision (ultra correction lift), Strivectin, Dior's Capture and Clininique's all about eyes (I used this when I was in my 20s). 

Shocking ang American Idol result!

[domestic diva]

My name is Grace/38yo and I'm a SAHM.  Ako yata ang pinaka-senior dito. LOL
My baby's name is Julia/10 months old.  Ang sinundan niya is now 11 years old.  My eldest is in high school!

Are we talking about eye cream? I used to use clinique's but only because is was free. I have yet to find my HG (holy grail) eye cream esp with my age 'no. I just use Olay and then pond's blue na cream. And I never forget to moisturize my neck!

[neszreyes]

magpapakilala din pala akech

Vanessa Reyes-Dy naman ako.. same kami ni Van

baby boy sakin- Gaddiel, 7mos.

Working mom.. Single mom.. Supermom

Astray ang hubby ko.. as in ligaw siya, kaya nilayasan ko.. hehe!

[marose17]

^ Grace, magka-age tayo.  Apir!   But my kids are a lot younger than yours because I married late.

Ay true yan!  I moisturize my neck twice daily (same as my face) and put sunblock on my neck too.  I also put sunblock on my hands if I know I'm driving.  Tapos, hand cream always.

Hi vanessa!

[wengerts]

hi grace! welcome! hope to meet you soon

rose, ako din na shock sa AI results. waaaah!!!! pero for sure, she'll have a career after this. look at Daughtry di ba?

lisa, pm me na lang when pwede kunin ha? have you looked at heinz baby food? meron yata sa rustan's and landmark. si chloe is an Earth's Best baby, pag tamad si mommy haha! first month nya i really put in a lot of effort to make her baby food. nag enjoy nga ako e

grayce, kaaliw yung angry birds theme ano?! so inggit talaga ako haha! uy nagamit ko din yang avent isis duo, grabe feeling ko cow ako!

di ako makarelate sa beauty regimen... because i don't have one! LOL! i've only tried one product from Skin Doctors which is Gamma Hydroxy. hiyang sa kin! pero i find it too pricey hahahaha! ang kurips ko e. we used to carry the product sa isang company namin, so we have employee discounts; but we sold it na so wala na din ang privilege sadness! rose, baka familiar sa yo to, along Katipunan may Skin Doctors na clinic (? not sure if that is the proper term) near Gervy's.

tin, nag order ka ba ng cake pops kay emz? super sarap!!! not too sweet sya.

Wait Weng and Marose! Si Pia Tuscano ba yan? Lol! Feeling ko lang. Kasi if sya, mashshock talaga ako!

Luz, sis lapit na ang partey ni K! 2 weeks from now nalang sana maexecute ng mabuti at maayos. Kuha din pala ako ng mickey mouse donuts sa gonuts pero hindi masyado madami kasi plan ko kumuha ng cuppies sa Shoppersville Bakeshop. Talagang naiintriga ako sa lasa nya eh. Lol!

Hi domestic diva and nesz!!!

Earrings
Di ko pa napapalitan ang earrings ni gianna 17 months n sya

Lisa
If you are going to ilog maria caution lang sa kotse medyo rough road ang papasok doon... Ewan ko lang kung naayos na nila yon

[redrose]

good morning! 

Re breastpump, ang gamit ko naman yung Medela Mini Electric Plus, ito kase nirecommend ng OB ko. So far okay naman output ko  I exclusively BF till 4 mos si Y, then mixed feed na 4 mos - 5 mos. Eh mukhang nawawala na supply ko kaya baka later on, pure formula na siya. Note na WAHM ako ha, and feeling ko kaya nag stop ako mag exclusive BF nung 4 mos kase di na namin naeenjoy ni Y ang isa't isa. Impatient kase ako, tapos anak ko, nagmana din ata sakin na impatient. LOL! ay naku, para happy kame together ayan nag mixed feed ako nung 4 mos up. Pero mixed feed in the sense na pag aalis lang ng house and sometimes night na lang since dito lang din naman ako sa bahay. kung si grayce bold star at si weng ay cow...ako naman ang porn star! LOL!
