Admit it, being a woman, you’d always want get back to your old figure after giving birth. We, mothers get to experience the most wonderful gift that could ever be given to us and that is carrying our children in our womb for nine months (less in my case). And we should all be thankful for that.
Though pregnancy is spiritually wonderful, it has a lot of complications too. You could just imagine your weight increasing spontaneously every week. There is this hormonal change that we also get to experience which could darken some parts of our bodies specifically our armpits and necks (oh, I had my fair share). We have to take vitamins and even medications while during the pregnancy stage. We have to take care of ourselves because it would mean taking care of our babies too. And soon after the baby is born, there is the postpartum syndrome, though I am not so sure if everyone gets to experience this.
After the pregnancy, we work out on getting our figures back. Some failed and some succeeds. Different methods, different lifestyles, all with one goal. It will be a difficult process. Really! And I envy those who did not even made an effort to get it back. As for me, I even tried using kymaro body shaper to get back that old look. I have heard of myths, easy to do, and other try it stuffs but I haven’t gotten the real thing.
Now, I have these unwanted fats, lurking all over my tummy making me feel uncomfortable and uneasy at times. Fitting has always been an issue and my clothes aren’t the same as before. Do you have any advise?
Who says moms don’t deserve to look good? Most of what I heard from common friends is that when you are a mom, you won’t have time for yourself. You’ll only need to tend to your family’s needs, the house, the food, the laundry, the grocery, the budget, the school. All of it. Won’t we ever get tired of all these things?
Moms are also individual human beings. Yes, we take care of our family but I think taking care of our family means we have to take care of ourselves too. To happily server your family to be personally happy and contented. And yes, we deserve to look good and feel good. We need time to rest and be with our friends or just ourselves to unwind and relax. This way, we can still be beautiful despite the age and the number of children. Well, the only thing I don’t like about aging is that I constantly need to apply adult acne solutions to avoid pimple outbreak.
It’s never too late and we are never too old to be beautiful. Being happy with ourselves will help us feel fulfilled and contented with our lives. Looking good is feeling good.
I was in the hospital last week due to abdominal pain but only UTI was diagnosed. My all time acid peptic disease subsided after I was given a shot of proton pump inhibitor. Nonetheless, the UTI persisted and it’s as if I haven’t take any medication but dang I finished my 1 week antibiotics.
I woke up this morning, with deark circles under eyes because I wasn’t able to sleep soundly last night (well it’s very common every night for me) and I am worried already so I decided to take the advice of my ob-gyne to have an ultrasound. I will be out of office today to do it. Hopefully, they will be able to figure out what’s wrong. I don’t want this thing to keep on bugging me from time to time and that is the reason why I have always sought treatment immediately upon noticing something is wrong with my body.
So moms, don’t take little things for granted. If you realize something is wrong with your body, have it checked by your doctor. As the overused cliche goes, an ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure. Health really is our wealth so we must take good care of ourselves too. This way, we’ll be able to perform our duties as a mom, an office girl and a wife.
You won’t believe me when I say that as early as 4, the girls have already shown much potential about almost everything. From reading, writing, music and even dressing up and posing for the camera. The girls have been so into the mood when it comes to dressing up and much more on putting make up to get even prettier. I love that they are so active.
Seeing them in photos makes me feel so proud as a mom. These are the memories I will always keep with me forever. When the kids grow up, have their own lives, do job search and marry the man of their dreams, I will always be delighted that I have become their mom and will forever be thankful that they were given to me.
Just take a look at these photos and see how they have grown to be such pretty little ladies.
They are just soo amazing. Haven’t I told you yet that they ambushed their dad for this pictorial? The older twin, Scieszka asked him, “Dad, can you take my picture?” and he gladly agreed. Our little room turned out to be a studio in an instant.
Is it an everyday battle for you too?
With 2 toddlers around, goofing, playing, running, screaming, it has been never that easy cleaning our house. But I think it goes well with other households who have tots too. Whenever you have already piled all the toys and clean the house – it’s as if they’d love to litter even more. Oh kids 
The only thing I don’t like after cleaning the house is our vinyl tiles. I know and understand for a fact that it’s already 15 years old and that even after cleaning, it doesn’t even look clean. LOL! I am actually thinking what kind of tiles should we need when renovation takes place. Will a granite tile be good or will a stainless steel tile do an even better job?
If you are having a tough time doing the cleaning job, here are some helpful tips:
- Dust daily. Don’t wait until it’s a week worth of accumulated dust before you decide to grab your duster.
- Sweep daily. Just like dusting, it should be done daily.
- Have a regular weekly house cleaning and a regular general cleaning of at least once a month.
- Wipe your furnitures, decors, appliances.
- Check for items that can already be left for good in the trash. Collecting trash has never done me any good.
Cleaning is not an easy task and it has to be done regularly. It makes the house more livable, virus and germs free.
