Ash at 7 months

She's really active nowadays and she's starting to show stranger anxiety. She can sit up without much help. She grabs everything she can reach and puts it in her mouth.

She has 4 teeth visible. 2 upper central and 2 lower central and she's showing symptoms of teething again!
1. Feeding less frequently and amount.
2. Crying and whining a lot more when she's normally a happy baby.
3. Fever-like temperature.
4. More drool.
Xylogel: A bubble-gum flavored natural teething oral gel with 5% xylitol.

Xylogel, unfortunately, did not help. It doesn't seem to alleviate any pain or discomfort she might be feeling. The only thing that does help is breastfeeding often, I think it hurts a lot less than sucking on a silicone nipple and I think she's comfort nursing as well. Paracetamol for infants also helped, I give it to her before bed so she can sleep without waking up crying every now and then.

Baby Jill Cloth Diaper Review 1

My Baby Jill Cloth Diaper (BJCD) came in today! They are wayyyyy cute!


The Doggie has a minky outer and the other 2 are made of fleece.
Here's a comparison between BJCD, Babyland CD (microfleece inner) and Kawaii Baby CD (Heavy duty with suede inner).

The inner fabric is kind of rough, I'm not sure if washing them will make them softer. It lacks the soft feel of microfleece or the smoothness of suede.

The waterproof material is made of a really thick fabric. The whole diaper shell without an insert is heavier than a Babyland CD with an insert. It's even thicker than my Kawaii Goodnight Heavy Wetter(Kawaii GNHW), and that's made with 3-layers of PUL.
BJCD waterproof layer on the left and Kawaii GNHW CD PUL layer on the right.


BJCD is narrower but longer than my Babylands and Kawaii CDs.

I love this! But I'm afraid the writing will disappear after a couple of washes.

My favorite so far. Isn't it cute?

Hubby picked this. 

I'll make another review after I prep and test these out with Ash.

Bought from sulit.com.ph. 

Ash at 6 months

We finally gotten her ears pierced! Her daddy left the room because he couldn't bear to see his baby girl crying. So I had to be the one to hold her down while the doctor pierced her ears and man, did she wail! I almost cried myself because I couldn't stand to see her in pain. But the doctor assured me it wasn't that painful and that she's likely to be crying because she was startled by the ear piercing 'gun'.

After the piercing, she was handed a lolly to soothe her.
The universal 'anesthesia'.

I'm glad that's over with! Now she looks more like a girl J

I finally had Ashlin’s pictures printed! Only because my mom made me. J

She’s gifting her a baby album, complete with pictures from the hospital, footprint and her umbilical cord stump. Needless to say, I had to be the one to have her pictures developed or is it printed? (Do people still “develop” pictures these days?)  Anyway, it was a good thing I found digiprint.com.ph, where you could upload your pictures and they print it for you and deliver straight to your door. I ordered my prints on Tuesday, paid them on Wednesday and they delivered Thursday. Not bad. 
They accept payments via Bank, LBC and Paypal. You can upload pictures 20 at a time and have the shipping free if your order reaches P200.

The pictures came out great! Now I have to pick out a few to be included in the album. Not an easy feat since there’s about 200 photos and she's only 6 months old J
