MVP on Pregnancy

Image
I had a very busy Saturday. There were so many household chores to do because our house help was on leave. I was washing our clothes when my baby cried, a sign that he was already hungry. I carried him and put him on my lap. He was staring at me while greedily drinking his milk. I could not help but reminisce the times when he was still inside my womb. On my first trimester, I not only had morning sickness but all-day sickness as well (do you know an alternative term for this?). I love to eat and eat only to vomit later on. Eating crackers before going up from bed minimized my morning sickness; and eating a little from time to time and eating light meals, in some way, relieved me from vomiting. However, the evening is another story. I have no control over my stomach. It would have its own mind and would push my dinner out from my system! On my second trimester, I was starting to become comfortable with my pregnancy. I do not vomit anymore. I could eat all the food that I love - eve...

The family's favorite spot is the Tingko Beach! It is just a short tricycle ride from Guiwang, my husband's place. The clear blue sea and the white sands are free! There is no entrance or exit fee!

It is in a small but deep lagoon across a coral island called Mabad-on Reef that completely submerge during high tide and expose during low tide.
