MOMI SHARES | Shadrach's Collection to one Momi Berlin follower

I know a brand which becomes a  successful business not merely because of its stunning offerings.  A lot of moms and even dads are seen wearing this brand because its purpose is seen and felt beyond its beauty and exquisiteness.  I am talking about the Shadrach’s Collection.

Shadrach’s Collection quality

I own two pieces of Shadrach’s Collection.  One is a ring sling and the other one is a wrap.  Both are beautiful, breathable, and created with excellent quality.  The color is vibrant too and surely, anyone who sees one wearing any of them would be impressed.

MOMI SHARES| The birth, growth, and success of Shadrach’s Co

October 11, 2017 · 2 Comments

 Two Sundays ago, I met a mompreneur.  She started Shadrach’s Collection out of her desire to care for her newborn and at the same time meet the needs of her three other children.

The birth of Shadrach’s Co

A collection of baby wraps and slings, Shadrach’s Collection displays the creativity of Filipinos in weaving baby carriers.  It is the business she introduced along with the birth of her son Shadrach.  And it is the baby wraps and slings that saved her to meet the demands of motherhood.

MOMI INVITES| Shadrach’s Collection on October 1

September 28, 2017 · 1 Comment

This mother discovered the beauty of babywearing about two years ago.  She got a few projects for writing at home, however, her newborn would always want to be near his mama.  Though she loves carrying her little man in her arms, she just couldn’t finish her household chores and some writing assignment on time.  She would end up burning the midnight oil just to finish her commitment.

Until one day, she visited a mom and baby bazaar and saw a few parents babywearing their little ones.   She joined a babywearing group, became part of the community, and little by little understood not only the convenience of babywearing but its advantages as well.

She bought a number of carriers until she found what best suits her Little Man.

MOMI APPROVES| Babywearing (Hot Parenting Topic I Refused to Debate Before)

July 8, 2017 · 10 Comments

I love babywearing.

I learned of it about two years ago when we had our Little Man.  That time, we have three growing boys.  I just can’t fully function as a homemaker with my baby always in my arms.  This momi then searched for the nicest and most durable carrier.  I even bought a number until I found the one I have been looking for.

Now that our Fifth baby will soon join his family, I also plan to babywear him just like his kuya.  I particularly love those moments when I carried our Little Man at kiss height.  I could always cuddle him anytime I like and yes, kiss him repeatedly.   He seemed to enjoy those many brief periods of time.

Allow me to share with you the benefits of babywearing and why I encourage other moms to wear their babies.

BABY DIARIES:  The beauty of babywearing

November 11, 2015 · Leave a Comment

Wikipedia defines babywearing as the practice of wearing or carrying a baby in a sling or in another form of carrier. It has gained popularity mostly due to the great influence of attachment parenting advocates.

Usually, I see mothers wear their babies inside  malls. It is, after all, one of the reasons for baby wearing– it allows the parent to carry her baby while still have her hands free for other things. It’s the same reason that I bought a baby carrier for my little one.

Our Yael has always wanted to be carried. My mother would blame me for this and warned me before that carrying him would only spoil our baby. Now, as soon as I put him down in his bed, he starts to cry and won’t stop until I carry him again. There was even a day when neither did I cook food for the boys nor clean the house because my darling Yael wouldn’t want to be put down. I had to carry him that whole day.  Now, with a baby pouch, I guess I could somehow do house chores with my baby very near me (we are tummy to tummy) and my hands free to work.

1d

From the many carriers available in the market or for swapping, I chose a baby pouch for convenience. I could use it real quick without snaps or rings to adjust. This minimalist carrier can securely hold my little one and if not needed, can easily be tossed inside my bag. Though it is a single shoulder carrier only, I haven’t experienced pain at the back or shoulders. This pouch can be used for hip and tummy to tummy front carries. As the baby ages, this can also be worn at the back.

I got my pouch from INDIGObaby. And what made me decide to get from them is because the women behind the brand are moms who practice attachment parenting and breastfeeding. Surely they always think of their children’s well-being, and that includes following their instinct in caring for their little ones. With that in mind, I know their baby pouch is lovingly conceived, putting great consideration to the baby’s safety and comfort.   Behind the INDIGObaby brand are Monica and Denise, college blockmates and thesis partners years ago, who both decided to be stay-at-home-moms and eventually, work-at-home-moms.

I must have enjoyed and seen the importance of babywearing that I bought another one.  My new piece is a TINYTOTS extreme sling which, just like the INDIGObaby pouch, is lovingly conceived by one hands-on mom, Vicky.  She is, by the way, a college classmate thus thrust I her with my baby.  I have seen her use the same product for her boys, too — an indication that she will not use it if it brings harm to her own kids.

1a

What I like best about my TINYTOTS extreme sling is that I could wear my darling Yael at kiss-height and cuddle him anytime I like.   With this two-shouldered carrier, I could wear my baby for hours without sore shoulders.  I am also confident that my extreme sling does support my little one safely, distributing his weight evenly.

I have read that in the western world, carriers are a fashion statement. A number of celebrities are photographed wearing them. Various brands are in the market and the colors and designs are really interesting you would want all of them for yourself.

Though there are still a number  who are against babywearing, I still have my baby pouch or extreme sling with me when I need both hands free to do whatever I need to do.  I have noticed, too, that babies toted in baby carriers tend to sleep a lot.

I am taught to believe that carrying a baby would spoil him.  But with a carrier or none, I still prefer to carry him even for the whole day. After all, children grow up too fast. Very soon they would be more interested in computer games and girls, and they wouldn’t even let me carry them anymore. Moments like this is short-lived, so I want to enjoy every single moment to the fullest while it lasts.

I would like to share this quote with you as it reminds me to never ever tire of carrying my little one–

A mother’s arms are made of tenderness and children sleep soundly in them.  

                                                                                                                                                                      – Victor Hugo

Happy babywearing!

I love to cook for my family. Special occasion or not, this mother always aims that her boys enjoy mealtime.  And so this coming Christmas, nothing beats the classics like serving our favorite BUKO PANDAN. It's that perfect decadent treat to end our meal on a high note.  Of course, we only use Nestlé All-Purpose Cream, our perfect cooking partner to create only the creamiest buko pandan. .

We have no plans of stopping anytime soonest, unless our two young ones decided to do so.  Our milk has been their primary source of  nutrition when they were still babies.  Now, it continues to help protect our sons against infection and disease.  The calcium and iron in our milk are also more easily absorbed by our two children, giving them the added nutrients they need.  And we are just so grateful that we have a partner in  @vpharmaph for all the MEGA-MALUNGGAY we had and continuously take. More than the healthy dose of natural vitamins like calcium, iron, potassium, and vitamin C we get from each capsule, Mega-Malunggay is proven to be a great galactagogue for lactating moms like me. .

So happy to be part of #VpharmaBrandAmbassadors2020. Excited what 2020 will bring, but we see more breastfeeding still. We also look forward to exploring #VpharmapH 's other quality products.  And we hope you are as excited as we are for 2020.
