Moms who are Nursing...

-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you are using nipple cream to help soothe dry or cracked nipples from nursing, you may want to stop using it and read this article in Yahoo. According to the news article, FDA is saying that the cream contains ingredients that may be harmful to infants. The ingredients are chlorphenesin and phenoxyethanol and may cause:

- respiratory distress
- vomiting
- diarrhea

The particular cream is called Mommy's Bliss Nipple Cream, marketed by MOM Enterprises Inc. Here's a picture of the product.

This the specific product mentioned in the article but you may want to check whatever it is you're using and see if it has the 2 ingredients mentioned. The company [MOM Enterprises, Inc] has stopped selling the product. Mothers whose children may have suffered adverse effects because of this product should contact the FDA's MedWatch at 800-332-1088.

Thanks for writing a post about this mommy j! I am planning to nurse baby kaiden as soon as he's born. And I have been using a nipple cream called Lansinoh. I used that when I nursed Noah. I checked immediately as soon as I read about the harmful ingredients. Good thing, wala nun sa lansinoh. haaayy..buti na lang. :)

take care! have an enjoyable memorial weekend with ur pretty daughter! :)

Huhu,luckily I used Lansinoh before which the doctor recommends.But I really don't used it much as the nurse said that the best thing to cure soreness is the milk itself...I was afraid for Shiela that time too because I know it's not good for her to suck with the cream...

Happy Sunday!

You Belong With Me...Little One's Version

-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is the little one singing with the new Taylor Swift song called: You Belong with Me ... acapella She's a big TS fan right now so that's all I'm hearing around the house lately. The little one's video is far from perfect but I'm a proud Mama. She recorded this all on her own so pardon the little 'booboos/mistakes' she made while recording/singing. Enjoy! If you're not familiar with the song, here's the link to the official video .

Paid Blogging....

 ...is that still even a thing today? I stopped blogging actively several years ago...so now I'm like starting all over again.  I don't even know what to post anymore. A lot has changed since I started this blog in 2008. Yep, that's how long ago it's been. Back then I just wanted to write whatever. I was already a WAHM - Work at Home Mom when I started this blog and that's how my blog title came about. I started doing work-at-home jobs as early as 2002. I had a handful of different jobs I was juggling at that time so blogging was just really something I did during my free time. After a while I did paid blogging. I did that for a few years. I tried to do it as much as I could but my 'real' jobs had to be my priority so my blogging had to take a back seat. In retrospect, that may be the reason why I slowly lost interest in doing it. I tried going back to it every now and then, but the 'mojo' is just not there so I stopped altogether but opted to keep m
