product review: Breastflow is worst feeding bottle ever!

I've just given birth and had to mix feed so I bought some feeding bottles before and after my baby's delivery. I chanced upon Breastflow bottles by The First Years. It really looked unique and amazing. It features a two-piece nipple that is said to replicate mom's breast. So instead of buying a trusted brand like Avent or Chicco, which I used for my first baby, I ended up buying 8 breastflow bottles. In the first few days, it worked wonders. My baby got a hang of it and she was able to mix feed quite well. But after the second week, some of the bottles already leaked. After a month all 8 bottles were leaking so much that half the milk went down the drain. My mom who was baby sitting for me was really frustrated she asked my to just throw away those Breastflow bottles. But I was feeling a bit guilty about having to spend for the bottles that I decided to use them as storage bottles for my expressed milk. Then I discovered that it wasnt even good enough as a storage bottles because it really leaks out even when you close the lid really tight. Hay, that's why I decided not to use them for that purpose again. Now I only use the 8 bottles as cool down bottles because at least they're BPA free. I bought Avent BPA-free bottles instead and I discovered how amazing they really are. My mom also loves them. So take it from me my dear mom friends, never, ever buy Breastflow bottles, unless you want to throw money down the drain.

Cebu Adventure with Hubby

 I had wanted to post this since forever but did not have the time or just did not remember to have the time.  I wanted to just share about this very organized albeit sablay itinerary of mine.  Well what the heck! I consider myself an expert travel planner. Having planned countless office and family local and international trips, I even thought of putting up my own travel agency just to remind me of how good I am in travel planning.  But there are of course trips that will always run into some setbacks and even unforeseen delays and even stops that may altogether throw your plans out the window. This Cebu trip with my dear hubby was probably one of those. But if you ask my husband, this was probably on his toplist of our most unforgettable trips ever. I usually plan out by hour but since there are items in the IT that's not very familiar to me (sardine run etc), I thought to leave out the time and just run with whatever the day brings.   So here how it all ...

How knowing SEO changed my career path

It's been more than a year since I took the SEO specialization course from Coursera given by UC Davis Extension program. And boy is it a great pivoting experience so far.  As one who have been in the practice of market research for more than 20 years, venturing into a totally new field is not only nerve-wracking but also defining.  It changed my career path unexpectedly even at age 40.   It was also last year that I have concurrently been assigned as Head of SEO/SEM for the entire conglomerate.  And because of that, I have been able to practice SEO not only with one website but with 12.  One year later, I've seen these websites grow impressions by 1k% and traffic by 500% because of organic and local SEO.  It actually surprised me how powerful SEO really is in achieving traffic goals which will help you eventually grow leads. We now have a steadily increasing number of leads across the 12 brands.  But recently I have been trying to assess if I were...

Best coffee choices

My husband and I have just concluded our coffee adventure. For the past 3 years, we’ve visited every coffee nook in the Metro. Our ultimate goal – to name or at least nominate the best hot and cold coffee in Metro Manila. As we hopped on from one coffee joint to another, spending more than we should for a cup of coffee or in our case 2 cups of coffee. We tried to give each nominee equal chances and enough room for a good fight. We went to at each shop at least three times and we went to as many branches as we can. Whether it came from a well-known brand or a convenience store, we’ve surveyed and sipped into each and every coffee cup. After 3 years the last visit turned out to be a good nominee as well. Well, here it is, our rundown of our top coffee choices: Hot: 1.) Blenz Belgian chocolate Cafe latte 2.) 7-11 Caramel Macchiato 3.) Starbucks Mocha cafe latte 4.) Figaro Capuccino 5.) Mocha Blends Choco Cafe Latte Cold: 1.) Java Man Choco Javaccino 2.) Blenz Belgian Choco Fros...
