Last July, when my daughter has a bouts of asthma attack we took her to her pediatrician which is located nearby. And she immediately noticed my girls eye.  She said " I think you should have her eyes check."  The lazy eye on her left was quite noticeable already. Her pediatrician insisted that I should look for Pediatric Ophthalmologist and not just any Ophthalmologist because she said they are the ones who are experts in handling children's cases.  I told myself that I have to save money because going to a certain specialist is costly and we don't have a health card.  That is why I need to save for her eye needs.

Since, I don't have the budget yet I often asked Mr. Google to look for a Pediatric Ophthalmologist nearby.

These are my options:

The American Eye Center in Shangrila-Edsa 

Dra. Joanne Bolinao and Dr James Abraham Lee

Telephone # 6360762  

Their consultation fee is around Php1200.00

Provision Eye Care - Silver City Pasig

Dra. Varela

Telephone #  661 4608

Their consultation fee is around Php700-900

I opt for Provision Eye Care  Network because it is near our place.

The clinic is clean, the staff are friendly and  Dra. Varela is such a wonderful Doctor.  She gave my daughter a thorough eye exam using their equipment. Before she gave her diagnosis and plan of care.  I was shocked to find out that my daughter's vision is now 200 each eye.  It is not just a simple lazy eye case anymore.  According to her, when she covers the left eye the right eye responded and became lazy as well.  The eye patch thing is not applicable to her at this point.  She has poor eye muscles and she needs to wear glasses up to 3 months then she will have a follow up by then her eyes will be evaluated again.  Hopefully, her vision will be corrected soon and there is still a big chance that she can wean the glasses off.

I am hoping for that..

Our total expenses is about Php2700 inclusive of everything. 

Her glasses suit her very well.  When I tried it it looks like I am looking through a magnifying glass. LOL.

What about you?  Do your kids need to wear glasses to?

GCash Scan Pay QR has an ongoing promo which started yesterday until tomorrow where you can get rebates of up to 30% which is capped at Php300.  Capped at Php300 means even if you exceed your purchase up until Php10, 000 or more you can only get Php300 as maximum money back.  Which  is not bad at all.   As a frugal mom I can't resist the promo especially if what I am buying is for our needs like groceries or medicines or the like.  Imagine Php300 that is quite a lot as a freebie.  The Php300 rebate is valid only on your 1st transaction during the whole duration of the promo period.  If you buy a few times using  GCash Scan Pay QR you can still rebates but I think it will just be 10%.

I immediately rushed to Puregold and do my groceries and my total amount was Php1300.  So I'll be expecting rebates a few days after my transaction.  I'll keep you posted and will show proof that it is GCash Scan Pay QR is real.

Yesterday I took my daughter to the Pediatrician to have her cough checked because its been a couple of days now and I can hear her wheezes.  Amidst the conservative treatment of salbutamol nebulization and drinking ASCOF(an herbal medicine for cough).  She is just relieved temporarily that is why I decided to go to the Pedia and have her check up. According to her Pedia asthma season is back.  And asthmatic children are at risk of Bronchial Asthma in Acute Exacerbation.  She prescribed us with combivent nebules for every 6 hours and had her x-ray because of the active cough which is  a few days now.  She will wait for the xray result before she prescribe antibiotics on her.

Today we came back with the result. The sad part is her Pediatrician asked us to have her tested for PPD (Purified Protein Derivatives) which is commonly known as a Tuberculin Test.  This is to confirm the X-ray result if she's been exposed to Tubercle Bacilli.  I was puzzled because I am positive that there is no one in our household who have TB.

Expenses: Chest Xray APL for 6 year old - PHP660.00

                 PPD Test- Php1500.00

                 Combivent Neb - Php 56.00 each x 4x a day

                  Budesonide Nebule - Php75.00 each x 2x a day

I am praying that the PPD test will be negative. We will return on sunday am.

Today I made up a few purchases through BeautyMNL because I saw some items that I would like to try but I don't have the time to go to the nearest beauty store or the mall because of the bad weather and I really don't feel well lately due to cough and colds.  This is my first time hauling through BeautyMNL and I was surprised that there are a wide array of selections to choose from.  Some are local products and imported products as well.

What made me purchase was on my first transaction they gave me a FREE SHIPPING FEE which I think cost Php99.00 so definitely I saved  a few bucks.  I can't resist that. See, there still something in this world that is FREE.  😜 Every beauty enthusiast would want that, even free delivery matters.  And they will deliver it to your doorstep.  By the way it has an option there during check out if you will send the items as gift or to yourself.  Imagine the delight of your girlfriends, wife, or mother when they will get a beauty products.

Aside from that BeautyMNL also have a lot of payment options like Debit/Credit Card, COD, BDO/BPI Bank payments.  Unfortunately they don't have GCASH yet so I just opt the COD mode. Just in case you don't have a GCASH account yet feel free to download at the app store and use my referral code: 311ECD so we can both earn points and loads.

By the way I bought  

1. Vice Cosmetics Little Ponies Deluxe set minis -Php395.00 It's a limited edition best selling set which come in 4 shades Pony, Benjamin, Whoops Kiri, and Girly.  All comes in a creamy matte finish.

Alright, I checked on Sampleroomph again and luckily I've got enough points to sample some other items that are new and I was so happy that there are quite a wide array of products that I can have, given that I only got a few points left.  Sampleroomph is based on the points and not the price of the items.  They will give you an initial point that can be used in exchange of a products that you want to sample and after a couple of days of using it each consumer is entitled to write an honest review about their experience about the products or items that they sampled.

Let's admit it, almost 90% Filipinos want to have white skin.  There is nothing wrong with that.  But we have these notion that  having white/fair skin will help us make look beautiful.  Maybe, we just want to be in, or boost our self esteem to save ourselves from bullying or prying eyes that our skin color is ugly. 

Whitening products especially on cosmetics are among the highest trend world wide.  That is why a lot of companies are taking advantage of the situation because of this multi billion empire that some but not all claims to be effective but some are just for a show and for commercial purposes.  I am thinking that some bloggers are not just compensated to review their products but to promote it as well to gain boosts in sale.

So let me tell you,  I was appalled when I watched Kapuso Mo Jessica Soho earlier today.  It was about a certain whitening products that causes major allergic reactions to its users.  It was really scary and disturbing especially if it involves allergic reactions or anaphylactic shock.  And if not treated immediately this fan be fatal.  Some even got hospitalized and was unfortunately confined in ICU because of the severe effects of these products.

The show tackled about these Goree Whitening product that can be easily purchased online and to other beauty counters world wide.  These products are claimed counterfeit and fake according to the original manufacturer that is based in Pakistan.  Nevertheless the test of the certain products appears to be a high in mercury contents.  As we all know mercury is a highly toxic chemical that not poison us but I think it causes cancer as well.  A high amount of these product will cause fatality to its users.  The wish to have flawless skin and beautiful face will lead to your deathbed.  

These are the pictures that I've got online:  

Thankfully some of the major site here in the Philippines removed the said product for public safety.  To each and everyone of us let us be cautious about the products that we are going to use because some products can ruin our skin and the worst our face.  And sometimes it is hard to bring it back.

Are you one of their victims too? I hope there will be help line aside from the FDA to help these poor consumers. 

Keep safe..

Before the 2018 school year begin, I decided to check out what Divimart Pasig has to offer.  I am planning to haul for  my daughters school needs.  I think I am eyeing on Divimart Pasig because its cheaper and near our place than going to the malls where the price are so steep.  So one lazy afternoon on my day off we decided to check out the place.  It is my 2nd time there and I am just in awe of their merchandise.  There are a wide array to choose from and it is air conditioned so there is no trouble walking or just checking because you will not swear, the place is also big the 1st floor is the groceries and the 2nd floor is all about general merchandise.

Truly Divimart Pasig did not disappoint me at all. There are a lot of school supplies and so much more in a very reasonable price.  There is also a membership card that you can avail for free which will let you earn points as you shop.

school needs.

hair clips and head bands, crayons and water colors

Hello mga Inays.

Mahirap ba painumin ng vitamins ang mga anak nyo? Lalo na ang syrup at di maganda ang lasa?  Ang anak ko oo. Sobrang hirap painumin ng vitamins. Usually hinahalo ko pa sa gatas para di nya mahalata.

I remembered when I was young my mother often gave me Vidaylin syrup so I asked the pharmacist if they have that and I was informed that they have the chew-able type.  I didn't hesitated at all and bought it immediately, knowing my daughter she will be delighted if she found out it is in gummy bear forms.  Who doens't love gummy bears right?  Eto, nutritious not just all sugars.

What made me buy the vitamins is not just of its form but also it contains vegetable product.   At her age she is really a picky eater especially when it comes to vegetables.  I was thinking that this vitamins might somehow help her in her daily nutritional need. 

Thankfully she loved it and she is taking this everyday.

What about you?

Hello mommies,

Internet nowadays is a must for every household especially if you are living in the city.  Don't get me wrong but I think we are in the middle of online revolution, where you can access anything and everything around the world through world wide web. Especially that the social media is in the hype and there are a lot of information that are readily available for everyone to see or if you have something to share around the world you can do so without even being a superstar.  You can be your own superstar or internet sensation.  Everything is all up to you.

 We already have an PLDT Ultera subscription but it is very limited and unstable.  We are just given 30gb each month for Php699.00 Since we are having trouble with our PLDT Ultera because it tends to disconnect all the time and my partner need a stable connection for his work.  With that me and my partner decided to upgrade our existing PLDT Ultera to PLDT Fibr hoping to have better connection and unlimited data cap.

 

Let me share my horrifying PLDT Fibr application that makes me disappointed in acquiring their products and services.  I personally went to their office 2 times to apply for the said "Fibr."  First application went smooth, the lady which I talked said to just wait for a call for any update from their team if the said services is available in our area. 2 weeks later without a call from them, so I followed up personally to their office in SM Megamall where I filed my application, that's the time I found out that there was no socket available in our place.  She advised me to wait again. And re- apply in a months time because as of now she can't determine if there are slots that is going to be open for future subscriber.  After a month, I went back to their office in SM Megamall to re-apply again.  After 2 days I've got a call from their technician saying that they will do some ocular inspection in our area.  After a few minutes he told me that there was no socket available because it's already full and he did not know if PLDT will add an additional sockets.  He even showed me the pictures of the sockets.

So there, after a couple of days we had a change of plan.  We went to PLDT Pasig Rotonda Branch to apply for a new PLDT Speed Plan at 10mbps and 100gb Cap.  The waiting game starts again.  To no avail, nobody texted or called.  It's been a week so I followed up my application and the lady on the phone told me that the Plan I am applying is not applicable in our area.  The heck this PLDT.  They are just wasting my time.  They should know the exact status of their products and services before they offer it to people and not just accepts application and not minding them after all.  It is not easy going to their office on my day off.  I have to do lots of things, or I'd rather just take a rest in our house.  But, I got up went to their office.  Inquire and apply.  The lady in the front just accept all application not knowing if it is really available.  And aside from that they are not giving the consumer its options, so the customer will not go back and forth to their office to re apply or follow up the application.  They should put in the forms an option that if this services is not available the next best option would be this..  And that's it.

I was really pissed.  The guy over the phone told me to terminate the previous PLDT Speed plan application, and request just a regular PLDT DSL application that will give us the chances of having a DSL.  My brain is shouting WTF.  How come the lady on their office did not even told us that personally?  That lady just get our application.  All applicants on that day may I conclude. So we just applied for what is available and not go through this very hassle waiting game.

After a week again of waiting there is no call from them about the status of our application for the regular DSL is unknown yet.  There was no call, no text not even an e-mail.  I will give them until friday if not we might apply from another internet provider.

Hay naku PLDT.  You should exert more effort in providing high quality products and services and convenience to your clients too.  There are a lot of internet providers out there that is so much willing to give their services to their consumers.

Hello mommies

This coming summer I am planning to enrol my not so little girl anymore to swimming lesson because she has a weak lungs, I want her to develop a healthy lungs and stamina too.  I will go to Pasig City Rave Park, I know they are offering swimming class especially to us Pasiguenos yet I don't know the fee.  Las summer I inquired at The Eastside Manor residences I believe their rate is Php4500 for less than 10 days and just 1 -1 half hours per day.  Due to bad finances that time and being frugal I hesitated and did not let her enrol but this time she really have to and we really have to.  She badly need it.

Next come to my mind is her Jollibee summer camp.  She is looking forward to her Jollibee school this 2018.  She attended the 2017 summer camp and she really liked it so much that she remembers it up until now.  It only cost us Php700 .  If I remember it correctly.

Next,  I plan to enrol her to a reading class at  Enopi Eye Level Learning Center at C. Raymundo.  I felt a bit sad that up until today she can't read a word.  She knows how to read the alphabet but she is having a hard time when it comes to words.  I know it has to come in me.  But teaching your child how to read is a difficult task though I read her a story books at night. Sigh

Next, I am dreaming to enrol her in TAEKWONDO.  But these sport entails big expenses.  I did some research on the fees and gears and its a bit stiff on our part.  I'll just continue dreaming and saving so someday I can give her the best life that I want for her.

What about you mommies? Care to share your summer plan for your kids? 

#hellosummer

Hello mommies,

 Last Friday morning me and my colleague had a brief chitchat about our kids.  She has an asthmatic and sensitive child like mine too.  We talked about their school, their activities and their future activities this coming summer.  Then she told me that her child has been cold and cough free for a couple of months now.  I asked her what did she do?  She said she changed her sons vitamins into Poten Cee and Immunomax.  According to her, she noticed that her son had increased his appetite and also his resistance to diseases especially cough and cold that is very  rampant in school age child.  And the season here in the Philippines is not cooperating as well.  These is really a struggle to us mom most especially that our child is in preschool and they are most likely vulnerable to viruses and bacteria.  They will just put everything in their mouth after holding anything and everything.

When my shift ended I hurriedly went to southstar drug store which is located nearby our hospital to buy the said vitamins.  As you all know my daughter is having a bad cough and cold lately.  I immediately gave her the Poten Cee vitamins I bought the chewable variant and I can tell that she liked it a lot.  I told her it is not candy, it is an orange bear that will help her fight the cough and cold in her body. And she is delighted by the idea that some imaginative bear will help her combat the flu inside her.  I am so sorry, I am not a doctor I gave her double dose but I am a desperate mom so I gave her 1 bear in the morning after her breakfast and 1 in the evening after dinner to help her boost up her immune system fast.  It's just 2 days of usage and I can see an improvement in her condition.   And she said that it's yummy and she likes it.  By the way I am proud that my daughter is not a big fan of candies.  And since Poten Cee is very chewy and tasty too she developed fondness of it.  Well according to their product description it has many anti-oxidant or anti bodies that will help our body fight free radicals and aside from that it also contains rosehip extracts and beta-carotene that will make them grow healthy.

By the way mommies there is also a syrup type of these kind a much cheaper one around Php130.00.  But I opt for the gummies because I can tell that my daughter doesn't like to take liquid vitamins.  

I haven't gave her the immunomax yet.  So my review for that product will follow later.

 

What: Poten Cee Vitamin C Gummies

Where to buy: Southstar of any leading drugstore

Price: Php198.75

Recommendation: Highly recommended

Hello mommies,

I am still contemplating whether to migrate my blogger blog to WordPress.  I've found out that you have to migrate to WordPress first before you can actually have your blog hosted.

I want to have my own domain and have my blog hosted for better chance of getting a higher page rank in google search.  The more searchable your blog is the bigger traffic.  And I  want to have a big traffic for me to earn bigger in adsense.  

Blogger for me is really user friendly and the interface is easy to understand.  Aside from that I can tweak it anytime.

Hello mommies,

Last Monday afternoon while my family is at our family room watching TV I suddenly hear my daughter sniff and I noticed she had a cold.  She is also warm to touch.  I immediately change her clothes and gave her paracetamol syrup tempra.  After  few minutes I was relieved that her fever is gone.  Then at night the temperature rise again.  I placed cool fever in her forehead, gave her paracetamol syrup and gave her a sponge bath.  It's been on and off fever with cold.  I am hoping it is just viral.  I've heard that almost all kids here in our block got the same too.  I am tensed because knowing my daughter, she easily got pneumonia, we are closely monitoring her food and milk intake especially fluids.  I also gave her Vitamin C so whatever it is in her body it will go away. This morning I told myself if the cough will not subside I will take her to the Pediatrician but the cough was minimized and the sneezing was just occasional.  I hope this will pass.  Now, she just have itchy throat. By the way, last night she can't hardly breathe due to clogged nose. I nebulized her with just saline, so the mist can enter her nostrils.  I also sprayed her nose with saline spray.  And she sleep soundly.  I am always praying to God to gave her good health and that she will grow up healthy.  She is just so fragile.

What about you moms?

Hello luvies,

I've been a RCBC Bankard user for more than a year now and I am fully satisfied with their services.  I've had other credit cards in the past and I had them cut off because I had bad experiences with them.  Now, I am sticking to RCBC Bankard because their point system is easy to earn, for every 800 points is equivalent to Php200.  A very plus for me.

I am not encouraging everyone to get a credit card.  Having one takes a great discipline or you'll end up in debt.  We don't want that because their interest are quite high.  So my tip is  use it only for emergency or use it within your means.  Let's say you have a cash budget of Php5000.00 for grocery, save it use your card so you will earn points and when the due date comes you pay your bills on time.  Easy peezy.  You can also use your card to pay the bills they have this automatic deduction each month, all you need is to call their customer service.  Aside from that they are offering 0%interest for 3 months for a fee though but its just minimal unlike paying your bills with high interest.

Now, I can say that I've earned 2000points which gave me Php500 rebate,  👍👍👍  Another great saving for me.

Aside from that RCBC always send an alert whenever I am using my card,  as a client that gives me a sense of peace of mind.

What about you luvies? Any experience to share?

 

Hello luvies,

When I woke up this morning I was sad because I can hear my daughters wheezes.  She can hardly breath.  She is having asthma attack again.  I was actually observing her from last night.  As you all know yesterday we went happily to divimart.  The place is not that crowded and it has aircon so I did not let her wear mask.  I should have followed what bebeluvs told me to make Luna wear mask.  Aside from that she is not that tired because she slept in the trolley half of the time I was shopping.  When we got home she requested to play with her playmates outside then after that she came home.  Later that evening I felt something is wrong with her she is having this throat irritation which I made her drink lots of fluids.  After dinner she played with her new toys and she told me she will sleep because she is tired.  Then the next day boom she's having asthma attack.  I immediately nebulize her to give her relief,  to my dismay our almost 6 year old nebulizer retired already.  We bought it when she was just months old and now it shows sign of retirement.  There is hardly no mist coming out of the machine.  Oh well.

I immediately rush to the nearest drugstore.  Southstar drug to find a very affordable nebulizer because its not in our budget.  Aside from that we don't know anyone who owns a nebulizer so we don't have a choice but to buy one.  To my delight the lady who assisted me offered Dr. Care nebulizer it cost around Php1300.00 with adult and child nebulization kit, a few filters and a fuse. It has a 7day replacement warranty and 1 year repair.  Due to our urgent need I purchased it immediately.   Hoping that it will relieve my baby from having difficulty breathing.

I also purchased combivent and anti-histamine to help her on her ordeal.  She is also taking Plemex.

I hope she will feel better.  I don't want her sick.

What about you luvies?  How do you prevent asthma attacks on your child?

#asthma

Hello luvies,

I am so ecstatic because today bebeluvs gave me an early Christmas gift.  He knows that my old phone is retiring and it really needs replacement.  When he got his 13th month pay he told me to buy a new phone so I will no longer have any problem communicating with him.  Actually my phone is not bad at all, its been with me for 3 years already and it is still functional though it turns off when somebody calls me and it also suddenly turned off when I open my mobile data.  My phone is almost off 50% of the day.  We've been searching for a great phone with a very good feature and of course in a very reasonable price.  You know me I am so frugal, and it will take me sometime to upgrade my phone in the future.  And a phone is just on my wish list because its not on the budget especially that the holidays is approaching and expenses are so high.

Anyhow, when we go to SM Megamall we scouted some shops,trying to score some good deals.  All shops got the same price and we came across one  shop that has a few freebies that made us decide to buy there.  I am so sorry if I forgot the shops name.  Aside from the free speaker and free glass that comes in the Christmas bundle, I also got a free PC express powerbank and a free 16gb Sandisk memory card.  They say the freebies cost almost Php500.00 I am very happy.

The phone comes in a cute Christmas packaging.

Hello luvies,

 

2018 is fast approaching and I have to set some goals especially financially because life here in the Philippines is getting harder and harder and everything is way too expensive.   Even if you are earning it never seems enough.  People say I have to spend wisely.. Duh, I am even on a tight budget but I can't compensate with my expenses.  Me and my family are living within our means and it saddens me that we do not have extra for some important stuff like Life plans, Educational plans, Sickness.  I am just so thankful that I have Philhealth and SSS that will help me in my times of needs especially if my daughter gets sick.

 

I am now embracing and embarking this new journey in my life.  I have to have additional job and with that I mean online aside from working full time.  I don't know where will I get the time and energy but I have to do these not just for myself but for my family.  I am envious of the people who are financially stable, they can afford and even have some extra for luxury.  Don't get me wrong,  I don't entertain luxury at this moment I just want financial freedom and stability.  Working 12 hours per day and earning Php500++ is not enough.

I have to be wise,  I have to be innovative.  I need to move mountains to reach my goal.  I hope I will attain that in the near future.  I hope i can survive this crisis.

Embrace the glorious mess that you are.

I went to SM Megamall to pick up me and my daughters Philippine Passport.  Then before I went home I strolled at the cyberzone.  Then I was surprised that there is a PLDT office there.  So I checked it out and there were few people inside.  I inquired and I applied for their new PLDT fibr plan 1899 for 20mbps.  The lady said it will take 10days to know if my application will be approved.  Let's see about that.  There is an installation fee of P3600 that I can pay for 36months.  That is their contract duration by the way.  They just asked for an ID.  Once approved I can terminate my PLDT Ultera even though that my contract with them is not finished yet.  I just have to call them about the approval of the fibr.  Plus, landline is included in the plan so that's good.

I just hope that there is a PLDT Fibr line here in our place.

Pros: ang bilis neto mga teh  20mbps karera yata eto.. Susuko na lang ako di sa sobrang bilis.

Cons:  A bit out of the budget.. P1899+119 per month 😓  saklap.
