Does your baby kick a lot?


The coolest thing happened this weekend and I could not wait to get here to share it with you.









I was alone sa bahay everyday ang libangan ko lang makinig ng DZAS Christian Radio whole day but kanina walang signal and really sick of radio music. Why is it that all the radio stations only play the top 10 songs now? I must have heard the new J. Lo song that I love at least 5 times, bringing it to song-I-once-loved status.
I decided to play some tunes on my Lap top. I haven’t been feeling many strong kicks yet, but after a few minutes  was a huge exception! The minute I started playing the first song my baby would not stop kicking me. I experimented by moving the speaker closer and further away from my belly. When it was a bit far the kicking would magically stop.
It was SO cool.
Seems like Baby Banana likes the music of his tatay the most.
(Side note: Yes, I refer to my baby as Baby Banana  as though it’s not her  real name. Is that weird?)
When I played my husband favorite  song my belly felt like a popcorn machine, little nonstop popcorn kicks in every part of my belly. It might not make my baby smarter, but it does make this experience more fun. I loved it and I love this baby so much already.
I can’t wait to experiment with lots of different genres to see what Baby Banana  likes (other than his father music). Now I finally believe that babies can hear while in utero.

My Baby Needs


Once the baby is born, it is natural to get carried away buying things for the new born. There is no doubt that you will enjoy buying things for your baby, but you will have to be careful not to buy things the baby doesn’t need. Also, it will greatly help you to assemble some of the most essential things even before the baby is born. It is important to remember that babies grow quickly and buying a lot of things that can only be used in the first few months will be a needless waste of money. It would be best if you could borrow some of the baby essentials from family or friends. Costly items like prams, rockers, high seats etc. can be bought second hand as they are used only in the first few months

Your family and friends will gift a lot of the things that are required by the baby for the first few months. It is a good idea to talk to friends who have had babies before you and find out what they thought was necessary for the baby during the first few months. It is a good option to enlist the requirements of your baby and make your purchase accordingly. There are certain items that are required frequently by the baby, such as diapers, formula food etc, which you can buy in bulk and keep in store.Find out what are the essential items needed by the baby and prepare a checklist for your baby.

Baby Clothing

Buying clothes for a growing baby is a bit challenging for many new parents. Today, the choice of baby clothing available in the market is unlimited. There are so many types of designs and so many fabrics available in baby clothes that choosing between them seems to be an impossible task at times.

Baby Clothes





















Baby Carriers
Even with a newborn baby, there will be a number of errands that you will have to do. Also, you will have to take the baby with you wherever you go. The easiest and most cost-effective way of getting around with your baby is to place him in a baby sling or carrier. 

Baby Traveling Accessories
It is quite natural that you will want to go for a weekend outing nearby with your family and the little one. Traveling with your baby can be really enjoying if he/she luxuriates the surrounding with you. And your baby can only enjoy the outing if he/she finds the atmosphere compatible.

Raising a Green Baby
Environmental issues have become a major concern in today's world. We have to make conscious efforts to take the pressure off the environment. Well, if you thought that your new born baby cannot contribute his/her bit towards restoring ecological balance, you are definitely in for a surprise. 

Baby Bath Accessories
All the new parents take up the task of decorating and furnishing their house according to their baby's need, the moment they get to know about his/her impending arrival. They do not want to deprive their baby of even a single comfort. In this context, one of the most important 

Crib Bedding
It is quite innate that all parents want the best for their baby. Each and every item of your child has to be unique and wonderful for your special youngster. You will surely want the most wonderful things to happen in his life, as soon as he practically sees the light of the day. Even while choosing the bedding sets for your infant baby

Bottle Warmer
The modern day invention that bottle warmers are makes it more convenient for the mother to warm milk for their little ones. The baby bottle warmers prevent your frequent running to the kitchen to feed your baby. You can take these warmers wherever you want, especially the baby travel bottle warmer, while you are traveling in a car.

Baby Cribs
One of the important do's that should be done before going to shop baby cribs for your newborn is to determine the type of crib you want for your baby. Though your baby doesn't need a crib during the first few days, his/her bassinet will have to be replaced by a crib as the baby grows in due course of time. 
Baby Potty Seats
Toilet training can be one of the most difficult phases of parenting a new born child. Once you kid has crossed a specific age and size, you may be interested in potty chairs for kids, to begin the toilet training process. At each step, you need to make the child conscious of things that are unknown to him/her

Baby Potty Training
Among the innumerable things that a baby is learning, he/ she must learn how to do potty in the right place meant for it. Though your baby may be too young, it has to be made a habit from an early age, but of course, potty training for an infant differs from the toddler potty training. 

Baby Strollers
Carrying your baby yourself can be a bit hectic for you, though it is a universal practice. If both of you want to enjoy the each other’s company without disturbing the comfort of the other, you should opt for baby strollers. The market is flooded with a variety of baby strollers like double strollers

Newborn Baby Toys
If you think that your baby’s toys are the luxurious items required just to decorate the room of your child, you will pleasantly surprise yourself by following the article. The first baby toys have a great potential to help in the over-all development of the personality of the child. Baby toys are generally colorful

Travel Accessory Safety
It is quite natural that you will want to go for a weekend outing nearby with your family. But sometimes you are quite tensed with the new born that if he is not able to adjust to the change of new environment or handle the tiring car drive. 

Baby Walkers
There is a constant demand of infant walkers in the market, though it is considered a risky item by many. If you have decided to buy a walker, do a brief research before selecting the right walker for your infant. You can get walkers that have an activity center on the walker itself.

Baby Safe Feeder
It is a real pleasure to see your baby grow up. The first time he/she sits, stands, speaks and eats; all the moments are special and cherished by you. Any tiny progress of the infant seems to be extraordinary to your eyes. As a parent apart from enjoying his childhood, it is your duty to provide him/her a safe and secure growing phase.

It's a Baby Girl!


Tuesday, November 8th, I had my 27 weeks sonogram. If you're somewhat behind on my posts, I'm pregnant with a Baby Girl, and thus far I am with a midwife group. But, my 27 week sonogram was different.

Here's Baby Soliman. Baby Soliman is closest to the exit. A girl. Didn't really want to show us her face most of the time. Baby Soliman, at this time is also the bigger of, at 1 pound.

My Baby are very active. Sonographer had trouble measuring either child, because she kept moving. Constantly.

She has her own yolk sac. and has her own placenta. But she is  doing well.
Not in any danger, at this time, of going into premature labor.

Heard from the doc that latest research findings show that the risk of uterine rupture for a VBAC with multiples versus a VBAC with a singleton isn't really greater. Pretty good chances for me, since I've had a successful VBAC already. Just depends on the OB, in terms of what conditions the doc has for willingness to do a VBAC.

Got to run. I need to tell my husband about th
s good news.

Breaking out the maternity clothes




I am 3 months and some change pregnant. No kidding.Pero walang maniwala kasi ang liit daw ng tummy ko.

About a week ago, I decided to stop wearing jeans. Though they still button and zip, they are uncomfortable to sit up. Cutting in in the wrong place. Know what I'm saying? Earlier in the week, I made a second decision regarding clothing. I would stop wearing a majority of my regular tops. Though a lot of my regular clothes are pretty worn. I've got to say, some of my clothes are really, really worn), I don't want to stretch out what I do have.

Yesterday, I started the vacuum sealing process. Away went my jeans and pants. Next will be my sweaters, shirts, tops. I also whipped out my pregnancy clothes, yesterday night. Nagagalit na kasi si Ric kasi mga fit pa rin daw sinusuot ko maraming beses nya na ako sinabihan bumili ng maternity dress pero wala sa isip ko. he...he...

I clearly remember being ever excited about wearing pregnancy or maternity clothing. I remember that novelty and excitement not being present the second time around. This time? I definitely am not jumping up and down with glee at wearing maternity clothes.

But . . . I don't want to stretch out my clothes. And, it is glaringly obvious I am pregnant (if people start guessing I'm at the end of my second trimester or beginning of my third trimester, I might cry) when I wear my regular shirts. Maternity clothes, for the most part (I'm fighting this), are ruling the day.

My very dear boss and long, long time friend, Maam Yeng Neng, gave me a sweet pregnancy gift recently. Clothing from a store called "Hot Mama*." 


Unique Baby Names



Me and my husband Mandarin Soliman can't agree on any names we both 


thinking. We need to prefer before our baby arrives...



The unique baby names are good meaningful baby names which are pleasant to hear. So, the husband manages to get the wife pregnant. Thereafter, the arguments come for the best baby name for the upcoming off spring.


The baby names have strong affect to the carrier, and public. More importantly, the name sticks thru their entire life. Since they will use the name for quite a long time, the baby name task is always a struggle.


To choose the baby name, one must take into consideration the origin, meaning, gender, and popularity.


The history and origin of baby names


Now, there are hundreds of countries. Each country has a language. So, the baby name may mean something else on a different country. We usually take vacation at least once in a year. Therefore, we may have to travel to another country. With this in mind, the origin of the baby name plays a major role.


True meaning of baby names


The baby name originates from the language. Languages are made of sentence structures. And, the sentences are made of many words. Basically, the baby name is a word, or words. Like any other word, the baby names have meaning. For example, the baby names may mean brave, love, happy, kind, strong, friendly, or lively.


Baby names for boy or girl


If you are expecting a boy or girl, you may want to match the gender. Otherwise, the baby name will torment the baby or child with the opposite gender name. In this early age, baby and child emotional intelligence are not fully developed at this stage.


Popularity of the baby names


Parents may follow the norms of the society. The advantage of a popular baby name is already proven to work, while the disadvantage of a popular baby name is mistaken identity. For example, someone called out Dennis in a room where there is many Dennis. He will see many look or respond at the same time. Another example, the collection agency wants to get in touch with the same name as you.
