Happiness of Being a Mother

By Jacaranda On November 29, 2009 No Comments

There is no question about it; true happiness of a woman begins when she becomes a Mother. It is when you’ll feel miracle that there is a little creature in your womb waiting for his time to see the world…magical it may seem. But once you held the baby in your arms a feeling of excitement, joy and fulfillment is there.

You look at your baby from head to toe, checking if everything is OK with him, if it is possible to count the hair on his head you would. You will check his fingers, his toes, his face and when you found out that everything’s fine tears will fall from your eyes…AT LAST! After all the pains and sufferings, you will say…IT IS ALL WORTH IT!

A Mother will always have a special bond with their child; it is a link that can never be broken. As time pass by, you will always be there to watch your child grow, from the first step, first food he eats, and when you hear the first word he utter it sounded like music, it seems like an angel whispered to your ears. And afterward it’s time to bring your child to school, 1st day of school is a nerve racking experience for a 1st time MOM, as much as possible you wanted to stay and to wait for your son, checking on him if his doing alright. You’ll guide him on his assignments, and school projects, you will review him on his 1st examination, you’ll notice your child was not that serious about it, you’ll have doubts, fears, questioning yourself did he get what I just told him…

EXAMINATION DAY arrives, the mother is the one who is so nervous about it, the child arrives home you will ask him “so what happened, was it easy?” “Did you answer everything”, but the only answer you will get from your child was a smile on his face.

End of school year is drawing near and as a Mother you would like to know what are your child’s achievements or are there any areas that needs improvement…there is always a parent-teacher meeting at school and from there they will tell you the performance of your child and once you have known that your son is a part of the TOP STUDENTS in his class… an unexplained feeling will embrace you, you wanted to cry, and at the same time you wanted to scream and tell the whole world that my son is in the Honors list. I’m a 1st time MOM myself and happiness of being a MOTHER is endless…trust me it never end.

Low Blood Pressure During Pregnancy

By Jacaranda On November 17, 2009 No Comments

Low Blood Pressure During Pregnancy… Once upon a time, my wife and myself went to the hospital, to her OB Gyne for her scheduled checkup. That’s when I found out that pregnant really do experience low blood pressure.

This was more than 4 years ago when she was carrying our first son, Matthew. That’s the time also that I wrote my experience about it in my Father and Son blog. Imagine that, it has been four years already! I really believe now that internet can most definitely preserve memories.

And now, I would like to do a re-post of that same blog article here for those who are still searching for the information about low blood pressure during pregnancy…. And I know that not only those carrying a child are looking for this info, but also to the first time fathers like myself 4 years ago.

Toddler Putting Shirt By Himself

By Jacaranda On November 2, 2009 No Comments

I was going to blog about this information about my eldest son, Matt, a few days ago, but I just keep on procrastinating.. So finally, while watching Survivor Philippines Palau Day 35, I sat down at my company issued Dell D630 laptop and will write about it.

<!–more–>

But there’s really nothing to write about really. It’s all about my son, putting his shirt on all by himself. That’s a new milestone on being a toddler. I remember my first post (or one of the first) about his achievement in Everything Daddy blog, him reading ABC – Alphabet (in random order) or singing the Alphabet song. Now, he’s able to put his shirt on
