Dealing with Postpartum Shit
… no, I haven’t outgrown the habit of adding the word “shit” to plural things that I cannot name, hahaha! As of writing this, I am 8 days post-partum. It’s been a great week, I’ve healed enough that I no longer need the pain meds (although I still take it to minimize the risk of Continue reading

Rocco Dorian: He’s Here!
Rocky and I totally made it to September 1, guys, I am very pleased! As you know, I’ve been pregnant for what felt like forever and I finally gave birth on September 1, right around the time when Jose Mari Chan’s memes reared its ugleh head, hahahaha! Can you tell how happy I am? I Continue reading

Pregnancy Journey: The Home Stretch
At 39 weeks pregnant, I was told by my OB that I could give birth anytime. But since I’m a control freak, I told her that I’m willing to wait until the first of September – about a week away – because I want Rocky’s birthday to not feel “off.” If you know me then Continue reading

Still Here, Still Pregnant!
It’s funny how I haven’t written anything here for the past few months. I guess in many ways, the lockdown dampened my enthusiasm to write, huh. The last time I updated this blog, I was about 3 months pregnant, going on 4. Well, now I’m about 8 months pregnant, exhausted, hurting, and just about ready Continue reading

Pregnancy Journey: Every Pregnancy is Different, Indeed
Hey, hey! Yes, it’s been too long! I’ve been hella busy the past few weeks, juggling business and work. Now on my second pregnancy, I feel tired all the damn time too.

Pregnancy Journey: Here We Go Again!
It’s funny how we were planning to have another baby later this year or early next year only to find out days later that I was already 1 month along, hahaha! So without even trying, we’ll be expecting a sibling for Damien sometime in September 2020. I suspected that I was pregnant about two weeks Continue reading

Hello, I’m Still Here!
Didn’t realize that I stopped blogging for 3 months, time breezed by so fast since the last time I was here! Hi, hello, yes, I’m still alive. In fact, I am thriving at the moment, albeit busier than usual. I was busy with the new biz for the first few months but everything’s winding down Continue reading

30 Days Post-Partum: Some Semblance of Normalcy
It’s been a month since I gave birth and I’m ecstatic that things in the household have started settling down. When I was a week deep into parenting, I was an anxious mess. I just had a C-section, dealing with a lot of pain, sleep deprivation, getting used to a new body, etc. There’s also the ginormous Continue reading

The Making of Damien’s Nursery
Oh hey! It’s been a busy month for all of us here at Dimitri Balor as we prep the nursery for Damy. We converted the guest room into a nursery/guest room of sorts. Basically, if we have guests, we can simply wheel Damy’s crib into the master’s bedroom so the design of the space should be Continue reading

Pregnancy Journey: Belly Updates
Being pregnant is perhaps the single, most terrifying thing that ever happened to me. I’m so used to dealing with kids stuff that when something grown up like this happens, I run around like a headless chicken. This is probably the reason why I was such a whiny baby throughout my pregnancy. Granted, the last Continue reading
