    For Sore Nipple and cracked skin
    I am still breastfeeding my son and when I look back, I think it wouldn’t have been possible if not for a couple of items I used as I go through this journey. Similar to any new […]

    • Good that you have found a product that helps. I can understand how painful it is. I did not try any products, as a friend recommended me to soak the nipple in the salt water, it helped to relieve some pain. I also read that using the breast milk to apply on the nipple will help too. Of course, using these natural methods are not as efficient as using those commercial products.

      I am glad the pain has over for the first two children, but now have to get ready for the pain for this baby soon. 😀

      • I actually used the “natural remedies” first like using my own milk and air drying every feeding session but it was too much – my son can drink my blood (literally) every feeding. I can see some hint of red with the breastmilk when he tries to latch and maybe he doesn’t like the taste so he stops feeding on the cracked breast. I guess it is nice to find natural remedies first because it is natural and free (most of the times) but when we need to speed up the healing process, we can always turn to safe commercially-made products.

        Oh, and hopefully your breastfeeding journey with your next baby won’t be as bad!

    • I loved Lansinoh! I used it for a ton of things, including rough and chapped skin on my hands. I love lanolin, and this formulation is so rich without being greasy or sticky. It’s a fabulous product!

      • Yeah, I didn’t know I can use it for chapped skin! That’s why I was so surprised to see that I can use it for my son’s chapped lips at the time. Well, it makes sense. If he can feed on my breast without me rinsing off the product, it should be safe if I apply on his lips, too 🙂

    It is nail art (or trying my hand at it) time once more! A couple of months ago, I decided to try to use nail art (or simply just by painting my nails) to de-stress. At the time, […]

    • Will there be 10 identical stickers for all nails else the nails would look crowded. Don’t you think?

      • Yeah there is enough nail stickers for 10 toenails but I don’t like to put stickers on the smaller toes, LOL! Maybe if I use the stickers for my fingernails, I’d put it on all 10 fingernails.

    Hard to pin it down.  My thoughts are so random.  My mood may cause me to write something I had not planned.  Also I find stuff that I’ve written in my computer files that need an online home.  When that happens I write first, pick category later.

    Very true challenges will always be with us wherever we go we have to pass through them an all we need to tell ourselves is that even in the midst of trials God always gives us the strength and wisdom to go through them.

    Attended the University of Miami, 1972 – 1976. Did some research recently and found out this institution as really famous alumni. Gloria Estefan. Sylvester Stallone. Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. Grace Slick. Any cool people graduate from a school you attended?

    Someone asked a question about the Points system. I’m not sure about the responses given. I’m confused because I don’t see a Vote button for posts or forum responses. I saw one the other day. I don’t see one now. What happened?

    I was a late bloomer when it comes to makeup and all things “girly”. I am not really a tomboy type but maybe, I just didn’t bother much about how I looked. Never cared if I looked like a ghost. Or maybe, I didn’t […]

    • My make up have been just some lipstick and a brush with talcum powder even in my younger days. Now that I am a senior I need to dye my hair.

      Good you found your brand.

      • I guess life is a lot simple back then. To be honest, I wouldn’t (probably) have been so much into cosmetics in skincare if I haven’t been living and working in Western countries. I think the way they present themselves in the corporate world is a lot different to how things are in my home country so I need to step up my game if I want to be taken seriously.

    • I started using makeup when I was a young girl thanks to my Indian friend who introduced me.Since that time I have been wearing make up since then without difficulties. My brand has always been black opal. I would recommend any lady to wear makeup once in a while it gives you a perfect and kind of different look. It is also advisable to wear makeup that suits your skin very important.

      • It’s the first time I heard of Black Opal. Is it available worldwide? I think it is important for girls to know how to look (and feel) good. I know there are some who would argue they don’t need makeup to do that and I agree but I guess it’s also a “need” especially for professionals. We don’t admit it, but “looks” are as important as skill when it comes to landing your dream job or a promotion.

    • i like all the makeup brands as yo uwill find good one in all tho them but, i likee boobi borwn once and i tried revlon which is little nicer, and found that the two of them are alike, so why to pay extra, pay for revlon since they no difference, but the eyeliner i like cliniaue and i use it only for nice day or parties or going on vactaion as this is really pricey makeup that you cant really use it daily unless you are totally rich and dont really get tired for money

    There are two kinds of needy people that I would like to talk about. the first one are those people who truly need help from others because they cannot afford to get them themselves. then there is the other group […]

    • I avoid the needy people in general; this is not because I suffer from the lack of the human compassion but because I truly can’t help with some specific questions and issues.
      The thing is that I have enough of my own life issues and problems, and the of another person who will additionally put the pressure on my energy and good will is just something that I can’t afford.
      Sometimes is the best to let others or faith handle this.

    • If only people tapped their own resources life would have been better for those around. There are some who will perpetually seek help even though they have two strong feet to stand on.

    • There are many people who are like that today. They depend to other people always. It’s not bad to seek help from other people but do not abuse them. Most of the time, when you give your helping hand to other people, they will abuse you.

    • The worst is when relatives are involved -relatives that kids look up to. It is best kids are warned about to avoid anyone touching them in appropriate places and if that happens they should immediately report, no matter who that person is.
