^Correct Jai. Kase for the longest time, diapers and vaccines ang major expenses namin kay Zoe eh. Yung mga extras hinde ko na nifa-factor in sa budget pero nung nag-start kame mag-fixed feeding, nag-adjust na kame kase ang mahal ng milk. Buti nga ngayon, 1 can of Enfapro A+ can last up to almost a month kase nagttake lang naman nyan si Zoe pag nasa office ako since wala na ko bm stock sa freezer. Come the time na 100% formula na, I'm sure we will have to adjust our budget ulit.

Naku kaloka naman yan. Mukhang kelangan ko na talaga bawasan ang pagshopping shopping ko hehe.

Anyway, I want to start taking pills ulit. Ang pills na ginagamit ko before was Althea. I'm not sure kung pwede ko to i-take ngayon na I'm still breastfeeding Zoe. Who's on the pill here ladies?

Re Pedia - Y's pedia eh gusto talaga BF, pero super supportive naman niya. Kaya siguro kahit mangiyak ngiyak na ako @ 3 months (gusto ko na sumuko), tumagal pa kame ng another 2 months na no formula. Sa awa naman ng Diyos, 2X pa din lang nagka sipon si Y. Yung last december and yujng lately lang (siguro dahil sa change of climate lang).

Re Formula - correct kayo dyan ladies! mahal ang formula  ;D minsan nga pag may bibilhin ako, minsan iniisip ko. Naku, 1 can na ng milk ni Y ah. LOL!

Hay, lurker mode lang ako, nagpopondo ako ng oras. Ayaw ko maghabol ng oras at lalabas tayo sa Friday! Yehey!  :)

Ladies, parang may pag-asa akong sumama sa chicahan on Friday. Dapat pala kase 11pm ang sched ko today. Hinde lang ako nasabihan. Ia-ask ko kung pwede ko humabol sa 2nd day of training tomorrow para mag-dayshift pa din ako until Friday. Migosh, nagkaron ako ng hope hahaha!

Hanggang [textspeak!] time ba ang EB sa friday? Baka naman hinde din ako umabot kung hanggang 8pm ako.

Re BFing and boobs: isa ako sa mapapalad na nakapag BF kay D during her first 3 months. Flat chested ako before mabuntis, nagka cleavage nung nagBBF and after mag BF naging skin na nga lang (as in super duper flat). :( mukha tuloy akong boy/bading. Dinadaan ko na lang sa bra. Haaay!

I stopped BFing when I returned to work. I tried during the first few weeks na umuwi every lunch to feed her. Although may pumping room sa amin (and may daycare din before), hindi ko nagamit. Malapit lang kasi office sa house so umuuwi na lang ako. Kaso hindi nakayanan ng katawan ko. Nanghina na ako dahil hindi rin ako kumakain ng maayos. Hindi kasi ako kumakain ng gulay so ang fear ko is hindi masustansiya ang maibigay ko sa kanyang milk. Mali ba yung perception na yun? Please correct me mga moms para next time alam ko na.

Re Fino: Sulit pag nagsasale sila. Lahat ng kapamilya ko binilhan ko ng Passport holder from Fino. Super nice and mura lang bili ko.

Meron ding Banana Taipei bag na canvass bag ala Hermes.

Marose, same reasoning tayo sa LC. Di ko majustify yung ganung amount sa itsura niya. I'd rather have an envirosax bag (for the purpose of nafofold). :p Recycled pa.

Try ko nga next yung Laura Mercier. Matagal ko ng inaawitan yan kaso hindi ko lang alam kung pag nag foundation ba eh pwede ng hindi mag moisturizer. Tapos naguguluhan pa ako kung kailangan pa mag powder after ng foundation. Pag nagtanung kasi ako sa SAs, siyemre ibebenta lang nila ng ibebenta products nila kahit di naman kailangan nung person. Kung pwede lang ako magpa consult at analyze ng skin ko kay Michelle Phan. :D

Grayce, yung powder na eyebrow, specifc ba yun na pang eyebrow o yung eyeshadow yun na rin yun? Isang type lang ba ng brush ang kailangan for this? Wala kasi din akong alam sa brushes. Wala ako nyan ni isa. Na overwhelm ako sa dami nila.

Effective for me ang Conzace. I take it everyday before I go to bed. Kapag I feel na parang sisipunin ako, I take additional doses of Vitamin C (yung Rhea lang).

BRing now wasnt so bad.

RE bf-ing, i did all the research i could and i did all i could but i wasnt successful. Even if i pumped milk for almost 6 months, it still wasnt success to me because that wasnt my real goal. But at least nga meron ako nabigay kahit konti. That's better than wala. Pumayat din ako when i was pumping but now i'm gaining weight na ulit.

Marcia, ang laki ng conzace! Yan din iniinom ko dati pero binigyan ako ng tita ko ng isang bote ng one a day vitamins for women so inuubos ko muna. Vitamin c ko kirkland lang.

Michelle, di ko ma-retain lahat ng info on investing. Sana magka-EB tayo on investing 101. Re melissa shoes, i buy sa retailers like mix, rustans, anthem or i buy online. Better to try on kasi di pare-pareho ang sizing. But if you buy online, you get points that you can convert to a pesa value so rebate on your next purchase. The style i find most comfy is ultragirl. Next is glam. Super comfy talaga and best if all wettable. Di naman kami super corporate attire sa work so i'm able to wear some to work. If youre interested in a particular style and not sure abour sizing, ask me lang kasi baka nasukat ko na. :)

Nesz, jai, cambridge satchel google niyo na lang for pictures. But fkr a genuine leather bag, it's relatively cheap. I got a 15" batchel for 7299 only. Schu is an authorized retailer. The smallest is 11", 5299 lang. I plan to get one for b. Hehe. Papa-personalize ko. It's a good first bag for kids 6 and up. Excited lang. 6 years and up yan, 6 months pa lang di b. Hehe. I figured better to get a cambridge now kesa lc nanaman. Di ko na majustify bumili ulit ng lc, i have quite a few, kasi lare-pareho itsura. But i love ne lcs ha kasi wettable.

I was in a car audio competition nung ondoy. Nasa parking lot lang kami with tents na walang walls. My lc planetes and my melissa ultragirl floc super basang basa but they both survived!

Konti lang din bags ko. :) lc lang nagparami. Next project ko talaga chanel GST. Tapos ayaw ko na muna.

I love fino din for card holders and checkbook holders.

Marcia, if I'm not mistaken, wala sa food yun since our body adjusts to the needs of our baby. Ang galing noh? :) Ang kalaban lang madalas natin mga mommies pag nagpapa BF is stress. Most of the time, stress ang main culprit bakit humihina ang supply. Honestly ako irregular ang kain ko since wala ako masyadong oras kumain & I'd rather rest/relax than to eat. Pero so far, so good naman. I just keep myself hydrated. Sabi nga ni mommy Marose, God is so smart since he made our breasts to provide nourishment for our babies ;D

Re: eyebrow makeup, yung iba gumagamit ng brown eyeshadow. But suggest ko for you, get a kid para d ka na mamroblema sa brush and pagpili ng shade. Meron sa Bodyshop eyebrow kit. Di ko lang sure how much na now pero before P595 ata cya. Check mo rin The Faceshop I think they also have an eyebrow kit :)

Lisa, ako naman di hiyang sa Conzace :(

Mommies stay safe, I heard lakas daw ng ulan. Special mention to mommy Tin, may sakit ka pa naman.

Grayce, thanks! Will try nga yung eyebrow kit na sinasabi mo :)

Re Breastmilk vs. intake of moms: Ganun pala yun. Thanks!

Lisa, mas carry ko ang conzace kasi gel siya in liquid form kaya dumudulas naman sa throat ko. Ang ayaw ko yung Centrum. :(

Hindi umuulan here in Pasig.

Pawn Stars now sa History channel. Try nyo. :)

Jai, malapit na sila magsale ulit normally mga ganitong time nagsasale sila :)

Marcia, another trivia, yung food na kinain mo magiging ganun din amoy ng BM. there was a time na nag midnight snack ata ako ng dark chocs, the next day naamoy ko bm ko by accident, amoy chocs! ;D tapos nung nagparenew kami ng pass ni hubs, we had bak kut teh(pork rib in tea broth soup) for late lunch, i had a major leakage pagdating ng gabi which nagstain pa white Eden tanktop ko dahil sa bra that I'm using :( and guess what? Amoy soup cya! :P

Jai, not sure kung nags-sale ang cambridge satchels. This is not local, it's a british brand. Mura na siya considering.

Red sale naman sa atc this weekend.

Half day pala ako sa friday, sa EB! :)
