DR. GALANG: A Child's worst Pedia

My 3yo son had an accident falling from the bed and developed black and blue in between his eyes after few days. I decided to see a pediatrician to have my worries settled once and for all. Since it's a Sunday, Our usual pedia is not available, the Clinic is close, so I decided to go to Bernardino General Hospital at Zabarte, Quezon City where I have given birth. The OPD is jam packed, as usual, and we waited almost 4hours before we were called. Finally, it's our turn see the doctor. The Pediatrician, Dr. Galang, wasn't the usual lovable doctor that kids would love. She reminds me of a terror teacher in grade school. She seems full of herself, without even acknowledging the presence of my son, she goes on asking the reason why we came. So I told her it's about my son's bump on the head, how it happen, all my worries etc etc. And she seem irritated by my reason on seeing her, as if we disturbed her for nothing. Well, Hello!!!,The consultation is worth php250 not to m...

A Bump on the Head of my Toddler

Image
my 3yo son and the bump on his forehead It was the usual morning, my 3yo son in front of the telly watching Nick channel in the 1st floor bedroom, me checking my Facebook and Email and my 2yo daughter playing her toys in the 2nd floor. I heard a loud bang then the cries of my son, saying he fell off the bed. I rush towards him and held him in my arms. I saw the big bump on his forehead and I was shaking as I tried to comfort him. Sure, he had accidents before, bumping on to almost anything as clumsy as he is, he even fell off the stairs. But this time, I was terrified, his bump was so big, it's like an egg or o giant egg for that matter protruding on his left forehead. I was praying as I tried to calm him down. I ran to the fridge and got a cold frozen Tocino and put it on the bump. I asked him heaps of questions him if his dizzy, hurting,  his name, his age, what happen to him etc etc. He was able to speak, answering my questions while crying. I sent text messages to people who...

AMANA WATERPARK

AMANA WATERPARK AT PANDI, BULACAN EXECUTIVE COTTAGE 2,500 FOR DAY USE It's our second time in Amana Waterpark , a year apart, and many changes has taken place in the resort except the rate which is still the same. Last year we rented the VIP room plus a boracay cottage, this time it's an Executive Room cottage for us which is 900 pesos cheaper. Although, it has no shower it still suited us just fine. The aircon room suited the babies when they were sleeping and the oldies who wants to watch TV.. There were 4 swimming pools open,  the wave pool, infinity pool, Batanes pool and the kiddie pool. The Avatar pool with slide is still under construction. You can also do horse back riding for a reasonable price. There were 2 Henna tattoo station, a clinic, and lots of Marvel characters figures all over the resort. The kids will definitely enjoy the wave pool, it is not comparable to the big waves of Club Manila East but it is better than no wave at all. The Resort is well- mai...

RIO MOVIE

Image
So it's not even weekend yet, but since we went to the mall to do shopping for tomorrow's family outing, we decided to see RIO. Me and my hubby doesn't really mind watching animated movies, actually we do love it as much as the kids does. So it was a fun time for us plus RIO is actually a good movie. It has a very engaging story, delightful characters, enchanting animation, and a vibrant musical soundtrack. When Blu, a domesticated macaw from small-town Minnesota, meets the fiercely independent Jewel, he takes off on an adventure to Rio de Janeiro with this bird of his dreams.It's definitely a feel good movie. I highly recommend it to all mommy's out there... go watch it with the whole family.
