BABY RASHES

It hurts to see your baby crying out loud because of that reddish thing that you see on her diaper lining. These are diaper rash or diaper dermatitis; it is caused by diaper staying wet on the skin, rubbing of diaper on the skin and some chemicals that blend with the diaper that is found in urine and stool.


Common causes are:
  • ·         If the wet diaper stays long on babies, especially if they sleep for long hours and we are unable to change it.
  • ·         If the baby is already eating solid foods. The chemical content on their stool and urine might change causing the rashes.
  • ·         Constant rubbing of skin. 

Baby diaper rashes can be treated at home not unless it is already bleeding and need urgent attention. These are the thing you can do:
  • ·         Always change the diaper from time to time.
  • ·         Wash the genital area with warm water, don’t use soap if there are no soils.
  • ·         In washing the genitals use soft cloth, and let it air dry, (don’t blow dry) before wearing the diaper.
  • ·         Don’t use wet wipes, especially the scented.

You may use these products to treat diaper rashes Desitin, Diaparene, or zinc oxide. I tried desitin and it worked perfectly fine on my baby. Use it with caution; don’t apply it to broken skin since it might slow the healing process of the skin.

Storing fruits and vegetables

Credit to pngpix.com Storing fruits and vegetables is one of the biggest problem I had . As a busy mom, I usually buy fruits and vegetables once in a week. But after a few days, these veggies and fruits are already a waste of money. When the time that I want to cook them it's already rotten. How sad... and I end up cooking nothing but meat :( So I came to research what are the best way to store fruits and veggies that could last longer. One golden rule is never store fruits and vegetable together. The acidity of the fruit makes the veggies rot faster. Apple - Store them in the coolest part of the fridge. Celery, carrots, and cabbage - pack them in plastic, some use foil but you have to consume it as soon as possible. And with carrots some cut the leafy part of it, cause that's the part that rot fast.  I tried cutting the carrots in cubes and putting them in the freezer, that should work for a week. Eggplant - Usually I put them inside the fridge, but not now. You h...

Chocolate Decadence at it's finest taste. I just so love the taste, the chocolate is not so sweet, taste like mild dark chocolate in the making. Sinfully delicious as they say it! The inner filling, the yellowish stuff that you see in the cake is like a soft custards that melts in your mouth. Delicious :)   We we're able to taste the cake courtesy of our dear friend Glyneth bought from Honeybee Patisserie and Cafe. In search of different cakes for her baby's every month celebration.

Premarital Sex, Morally Wrong or Right?

Premarital Sex is long been an issue in our super judgmental society. It is an obvious serious problem of world's abnormality. Since we're living in what we call free country, people around the world especially the young ones, believe that sex is an ordinary pleasure, its secrecy and its excitement send shiver on young ones. Little by little the behavior of teenagers has been destructed and bent into different directions. I'm not telling you that i am pro adult premarital sex, but mostly teenagers are the most affected of this issue. Since their spiritual and emotions are not established yet. Usually their idea of premarital sex has been twisted maybe by media, like television or internet. At this age they are still in the process in finding their self and identity.
