Follow these "PLEAs" to protect your child and others from getting sick and to help keep RWIs out of your community:
Please take your kids on bathroom breaks or check diapers often. Waiting to hear "I have to go" may mean that it's too late.
Please change diapers in a bathroom and not at poolside. Germs can spread to surfaces and objects in and around the pool and spread illness.
Please wash your child thoroughly (especially the rear end) with soap and water before swimming. We all have invisible amounts of fecal matter on our bottoms that end up in the pool.
Source: Keep Kids Healthy
If swimmers are ill with diarrhea, the germs that they carry can contaminate the water if they have an "accident" in the pool. On average people have about 0.14 grams of feces on their bottoms which, when rinsed off, can contaminate recreational water. When people are ill with diarrhea, their stool can contain millions of germs. Therefore, swimming when ill with diarrhea can easily contaminate large pools or waterparks. 
Every time I had a chance to stroll on the mall. I always look for Kyla’s stuff like branded clothes, shoes and toys. It’s really that if you are a mom, you always think of your child first than yourself. I want to give her the best I could at a reasonable cost because I don’t want her to be materialistic. When I say that we have no money she will just say “Okay Mama, we will buy it next time”. She is a very understanding child. I am thankful for that because I want her to know that it’s hard to earn a living. We work hard for her, her needs. Kyla is God’s precious gift to us.
As toddlers learn more about themselves and their abilities, they become aware of their social setting. With frequent opportunities for group experiences, they gain an awareness of others and a sense of group identity. Daily group-time incorporates a number of activities, such as songs, games, stories, and more.
* I surf on the net regarding toddler’s issue on their first day in school. I am so excited for my daughter Kyla to go to school next year. I am planning to get her a summer class so that it will be easy for her for the first day in school. I am beginning to teach her about the alphabet and numbers by identifying it. I hope and pray that she can catch up easily though it’s hard to teach them because they are still playing. I will take time and practice long patience for her to learn. *
Last Sunday we went to SM after going to church. We eat our lunch at KFC, hubby’s favorite fast food store. Kyla was eager to go to
Yesterday we went to our shop in downtown area, it’s our small business that hubby manage. Kyla was bored and so she wants to go shopping malls or in downtown area to buy toys as usual. I told her to sleep early so that after lunch we will be headed to our shop. She wake up at 1 in the afternoon and so I texted hubby to bring some clothes for her from our house. I took a bath and hubby arrived then we headed to our destination.
I and Kyla stayed in my mom’s house for almost 2 weeks because she has fever last week. Hubby’s brother has german measles and that it is contagious. We cannot go home due to its health situation in our home. Kyla keep on saying that she wants to go home. I know she misses her Lola Candy and hubby’s siblings. We have no choice but to stay for a while in my mom’s house. Maybe by next week we can go home. Gee! I miss our room.
Massage on any part of the body causes increased activity or stimulation to a nerve in the brain called the vagus nerve. This nerve branches out to control various regions of the respiratory and digestive systems, including the esophagus and the stomach. To use massage successfully for an infant with reflux, follow the steps below:
“Massaging your babies is recommended by the physicians because it helps them relax. It must be done after taking a bath. Put some baby oil and apply it in baby’s body. I have tried it when my daughter is in months old. They can sleep straight at night. Then they will wake up with good mood.”
I’m happy today because Kyla is eating very well. Her appetite has come back. She never complains when she swallows food. I thank you Lord.
I’m happy too because my student has high scores in her first prelim exam last week. At least my hard work in teaching her was successful. Now, she has a new lesson in her math subject which is Multiplication. She hardly understands its method on getting the product. I hope she can get it soon.
Antibiotics -- great advances on the front of modern medicine...or dangerous medications that cause more harm than good? The answer lies somewhere in between. If you're the parent of a child who has suffered from a bacterial infection such as pneumonia or strep throat, you've experienced the benefits of antibiotics firsthand. Seeing your previously listless baby make a dramatic turnaround, or finally getting a full night's sleep after having been awake the past three nights with your fussy, feverish toddler can make you appreciate the value of antibiotics. It might even tempt you to run to your doctor and plead for another antibiotic at the first hint of your child's next illness. Be wary, though, because all that glitters is not gold. Side effects and resistant bacteria have created a double-edged sword with these medicines. Here are the most up-to-date facts about antibiotics to help you avoid misusing these medications.
Kyla loves to eat branded chocolates like Cadburry, Toblerone and M&M. Well, her Mama Lolit(my mother-in-law) always send them branded chocolates. Gee! It’s definitely yummy but costly than any brand less chocolates in the market. It’s too bad when you eat a lot of sweets like that of chocolates because it can cause diabetes. What I do is put it in the hidden place so that she will not get it. Her teeth will be dent if she eats a lot. And if I eat, I don’t show it to her because probably she will ask for more.
Toddlers are curious, so it is imperative that you childproof your house whenever little ones are around.
“This is a helping tips to all parents out there especially to those who have toddlers at home. They are very curious and so they try everything they see though it can hurt them like sharp objects. We must focus our attention to them to prevent them from accident. Many little ones in news that they are a victim of recklessness of their parents due to they are busy doing their household and yet they do not supervise their child at home. Be a responsible parent for always for your child’s sake.”
Last night Kyla can’t sleep. She keeps on moving in her bed. I ask her what she wants. She told me that she is hungry and that she wants to drink milk. Maybe because of her tonsillitis, she is in pain when swallowing foods. I hope and pray that she will be okay by tomorrow and that the bacteria was totally dead because of the antibiotic that I gave her. Grrr! I hope so! Go away!
I want to purchase this Magical Sea Carriage Ride at Fisher Price. But I think they don’t ship here in the
My daughter has loss her appetite because she has tonsillitis. When she swallows her food, she will say “Ang sakit maglunok Mama”. She is irritable because maybe she is hungry and yet it is painful when she swallows the food. My poor Kyla, she wants me to carry her all the time. Gosh! She is heavy huh. I hope and pray that she can recover soon by the help of antibiotics. Please Lord help my daughter. Get her tonsillitis as soon as possible to bring back her appetite.
While I was browsing on my files here in my PC, I found this photo. We are in SM Mall of Asia here and so I let Kyla pose in this statue. When you enter in that door, it is a gaming store wherein you can play electronic toys by inserting coins. Many are playing there children and adult. They go home with stuff toys in their hand and other freebies. We get envy with them because my sis in law never got a chance to get stuff toy. The coins cost 10 pesos; she tried it thrice but never lucky to have it. We had fun in that day, it was my birthday huh..
My daughter Kyla is suffering from tonsillitis. She cannot eat well due to its painful to swallow foods. But she strives to eat little by little. I gave her antibiotic though it’s hard to convince her to take it. She is sleeping right now. I hope and pray that she will not get sick anymore so that we will not be worry for her. If she has high fever, she will have seizure. I thanked God we manage to avoid it by giving her a paracetamol and put her cold wet towel on her head.
My daughter Kyla is sick today. She has no colds and cough. She has high temp of 38 degrees. Gosh! I’m rattle and crazy because there is a tendency that she will have a convulsion or seizure. I hope and pray that God will not allow that to happen for her because if that happens we will gonna rush her to hospital and I don’t want her to have dextrose. It’s hard for the physician to look for children’s veins unlike the adult. I hope and pray that God will use the medicine to heal her. She is very irritated and don’t want to put the wet cold towel on her head. I wish she will cooperate to avoid seizure. Please pray for my daughter Kyla that she will get well soon.
Hubby arrived yesterday from Gensan for a wedding coverage. He hasn’t got a chance to drop on my mom’s house because he went to our shop and went home so late. He just texted me that he will come early in the morning and so I was pissed off of him. Kyla was so happy when her Papa was here. She give a hug and kisses to her dad so also with the hubby. Hubby told Kyla that Lola Candy is looking for her because I think it’s 1 week since they see each other because hubby use our room for his temporary work place and that we need to stay in my mom’s house. After eating our breakfast I let hubby and Kyla go to our house to see Lola Candy. Then, I follow in the afternoon.
Grrr! Kyla is stubborn for sometimes. I told her to not to run because she is kind a “lampa”. She easily gets fall every time she runs or in a hurry to go outside to play with her friends. I scolded her yesterday because she falls in the ground and has wound on her knee due to Anthony call her to get hasten to see his drawings. My mom fixes her hair first because it is long and that she looks “bruha” on it when it is tie up or will have a pony tail. I get sober and so I slap her butt. She cried loud. I told her that from now on she will stay inside the house and will not be going outside to play. Kyla come closer to me and ask forgiveness. I explain to her of what she did and it’s good that she understand.
Honey can cause food poisoning (botulism) in infants less than one year old. Avoid adding such a sugar to bottles of water or formula and resist the temptation to dip soothers in them. If sugar is needed for constipation, use white granulated sugar. It works the same way and it's safe.
Television viewing may be associated with irregular sleep for infants and toddlers, according to a new study published in Pediatrics (AAP).* This is true because I observed this in our neighbor here. The child will not take a nap during afternoon due to watching television. The parents still allow their children to do such thing. The child will sleep late in the evening because of watching her favorite TV shows. I thank God because my child is not addict to television. She will only watch "The Singing Bee" because she is a music lover then after that she will have her goodnight sleep. She loves to sleep especially at noon and so I have no problem with her when sleeping. *
It’s my daughter Kyla in the pic. I ask my bro to take a photo of her sitting in her rubber mat. She sleeps there in the afternoon because it’s too hot in my mom’s room during afternoon. I bought it last month; she is the one who put in the basket. I like it because it has an alphabet and numbers for her to study. I start teaching her everything so that she will be ready if she goes to school by next year. She has study habits now because she will ask me “Study tayo Mama”. Very Good girl!
I cook French Fries today because it’s my Food Trip. My daughter was happy and eager to taste my French Fries. This is one of her favorite snack when we are in
This was taken last March 20..Kyla’s birthday at Forest Hill Resort. We had fun swimming in their big pool. Mom and I prepare buttered chicken, pancit, menudo(Lola Ading’s specialty), kinilaw, spaghetti(Aunt Beng’s specialty), macaroni salad and birthday cakes from Tito Troy and Lola Neneng(Rachel’s mom, gf of my bro). There is so much blessings during her birthday. Well, maybe next year would be a children’s party in our house for a different venue since her birthdays are always a beach party with our family and relatives.
This is Ella(the smaller one) my godchild. Kyla is one year older from her. They play but sometimes they cannot bond because Ella has her own world likewise Kyla. LOL! Ella is very energetic for she keeps on moving. Kyla is now behaved and she knows that she is “Ate”, she gives way to Ella. But they know each other and will call each other because Ella is mom’s neighbor but now they transfer to downtown area. We seldom see them, only if they will visit Nanay Ping, Ella’s grandma. We missed them!
^^Today I went to the grocery for food shopping because Kyla is complaining that she has no food. She keeps on opening the fridge looking for a food to eat. Kyla eats a lot and then “popo” every now and then.
Children are in the Toddler Years from 1 ½ years old until their 3rd birthday. During this time, they go through many new physical, emotional and intellectual experiences, such as:
“This is definitely true because my daughter has so much of energy. She is now three years old and can play in long ours with us or with her friends. She is very curious of everything because she is keep on asking you such things that sometimes gets you irritated if you have work. The horrible behavior is when she has tantrums because I cannot control her from crying loud with nonsense matter that I sometimes hit her. But what I do is I will never make “pansin” her so that she will stop from crying. Toddlers are really hard to discipline because they are selfish and needs your attention. “
Weaning is the time when parents begin to gradually introduce foods other than breast milk or infant formula to their baby's diet. Specially prepared solid foods may be introduced gradually between 4 and 6 months of age.
Cereal-based foods are usually the first weaning foods offered to the infant. Other foods, including strained or mashed fruits, vegetables, meats, and fish, are later added to the weaning diet.
The introduction of weaning foods should not signal the elimination of milk from baby's diet. In fact, breast milk, infant formula, or a follow-on formula designed specifically to meet the nutritional needs of older babies should remain the primary source of nourishment throughout the first year of life.
Weaning is an important stage in your baby's life. It requires much patience on your part, some practice on your baby's part, and a lot of learning by all.

“ I start weaning my daughter when she is turning three. Gosh! It’s a tough decision for me because my daughter likes my milk than her formula milk. I don’t know why but she wants my milk and so I had a hard time during night because I have work online. I need to wean her for she sometimes destruct my work due to she wants me to breastfeed her. Kyla is old enough to be breastfeed huh. I think I had fever that time and my breast is in pain that I feel it will boom due to the milk inside my breast. Now, I am free and will not be bothered every night. “
Last week I bought a stroller toy for my daughter Kyla. Hubby saw it near our business area. It’s a plastic but fits to her small doll. It’s only 100 pesos, so affordable. I know she will like it. That night she put her doll inside the stroller and they walk in inside mom’s house. Then, the following day she went outside and tells her friends that she has a new toy. Gee! Kyla is kind a humble kid in opposite. LOL!
Kyla is a music lover because she chooses to buy her a music play set toys like guitar, piano, tambourine and many more. She has everything of this music stuff and will sing song that she learns from her Sunday school. I decided to have her piano lesson as soon as she is schooling. Her godmother Jen teaches piano lesson. I know she likes what I want for her. I am a frustrated pianist. LOL! I want to learn to play piano but the piano does not want me. It’s not my talent. LOL!
I’m proud of my daughter because she slowly identifies the English alphabet and knows how to count objects from 1 to 10. She sometimes says “Mama, magstudy na tayo”. Well, she has improvement at last. Kyla is practicing study habits that makes me decide that she is prepared to learn and go to school. I’m so excited for next year that is why I am saving bucks for her schooling right now so that everything is fixing and there is nothing to worry about financial. My mom teaches her slowly by slowly even when sometimes she is not serious but she has determination to learn and know everything academically.
We went to church so late. Our pastor begins to preach in the stage. Gosh! We were so ashamed to pass by going to Kyla’s room. She agreed that I will not accompany her inside her room because I will listen to our pastor. After a few minutes she went out and finding me. I have no choice but to be with her so that she will listen to her Sunday school teacher. Last Sunday, I wasn’t there because I am not feeling well. Only hubby and my daughter Kyla went to church. My cousin said that she just sit down and listens to her teacher last Sunday. I want her to go to her room alone without me so that when she is schooling she will not ask me to be with her. I hope someday she will learn to be an independent child.
1st pose
2nd poseLook who is this little girl on sexy bikini. Gee! Its Kyla my daughter wears her Tita Hannah’s bikini. We ask her to pose for a sexy pictorial like that of FHM. She is kind a “artista” because she can act and do a seductive pose. I let hubby see this photo and he laugh and laugh. Hubby told me not to command such thing to Kyla because he is very conservative father and husband. He doesn’t want her baby Kyla to act as a lady. Well, it will happen someday and so he must be ready for it. I know he will be a strict father of course.
Yesterday, I went to BDO at SM to inquire if I can apply a bank account for my daughter. I have an existing account there. I brought her original and photocopy of her Birth Certificate which is the requirements needed to open an account. The opening account would be P 500.00 and so I deposit also some amount of money. They immediately gave me Kyla’s passbook. Gee! I can now start saving for her future, for her schooling next year. Honestly if I put my money on my ATM I am tempted always to withdraw it. I am sometimes 1 day millionaire. LOL! But now I can save at last. I don’t want to struggle next week of where to get Kyla’s enrollment fee and tuition fee. I want everything is prepared for me not to worry. I want to give the best for my daughter Kyla.
Today is the flight of my mom in law back to
Last Monday they went to NCCC mall for food shopping. They told me that Kyla was pointing on her food like biscuits, chocolate drink, Stick-O and many more. Gosh! Mom in law will be a hard time budgeting what she put on the cart. Kyla is such a smart kid huh. They just laugh and had fun talking to her for she is talkative. Surely, Mama Lolit will miss her.
Thank God because Kyla has no slight fever. It is with the help of FERN-C. Last night mom “hilot” her because we know that she has “pilay”. She always falls on the floor because she is very playful and that she can’t balance herself. But she is very active though she is sick last night. She sleeps well last night. I thank you Lord for you answer my prayers.
My poor daughter Kyla has colds. She keeps on moving while sleeping last night because she is hard in breathing. I gave her FERN-C three times a day and glad her colds now are not watery. Maybe because the weather we had in the
