Colours of my Life

You'll never know what's the future has in store for you. I used to pictured myself as a career woman once. But now, I'm a 24/7 housewife and mom. I managed to work for 2 years though, but lost my job at 6m pregnancy with my 1st child. Since it's so tough to get a new job, I'm just better off at home.

The minute I held & cradle my baby for the 1st time, I couldn't imagine anything that could held me back from being there besides her throughout her growing years. Not for a split second I thought of leaving home for a carrier life anymore.

So that's when my never ending story as a mom begins.. Despite all the hardship I went through raising my kids, I still can stood tall and proudly announce I'm a mom of 2 adorable kids. Never did it occur to my mind that I regretted leaving behind all my years of studying and working. My kids meant more than that.

It's one tough job being a mom n raising your own kids. Every mom has a different story to share. Different child has a different tantrums that will later developed into their personality... I'm still, and forever will be learning and challenging myself to becoming a far more better mom. Many tips I learned and would gladly to share with other moms out there..

Heat, Milk Rash and Red Allergy Spots on Face

Both my kids experienced the same situation. I bring them out for a brisk walk, and later returning home and finding some red, allergy-like spots on their faces. For the heat rashes and outdoor allergy-like spots (as I call it), I only treat it by bathing them with Lactacyd Liquid, right after returning home. A face wash mild enough for babies, that was recommended by my Pediatrician. It could be the normal everyday bathing routine too.

Milk rash is common in nursing babies. It could occur anywhere on the face or neck. My 1st child had lots of milk rashes, on and off. A few sprinkles of  Cuticura all purpose talcum powder lessen the milk rashes.

My 2nd child has a fairer complexion compared to his sister. It makes him much prone towards any kind of rashes especially on his face. His rashes are even much more stubborn and difficult to treat.


I accidentally found natural cure for his extra sensitive skin. I love to take fruit juices from blended tomato, cucumber, carrot and apple together. Instead of throwing away the husks, I puree it and feed my son. It makes his skin much smoother and less rashes.. =)
