What is a diaper rash? A Diaper rash (diaper dermatitis) is skin irritation, usually a reddish color on a baby's genital area or bottom. Diaper rash is one of the most common dermatological conditions and most common skin disorders of babies.

Our babies have delicate skin, so some babies can get a diaper rash because of skin sensitivity. That's why even if their parents frequently change the diapers they can still have them for other reasons. 

Change your baby's diaper frequently and as soon as it's wet or dirty. Don't forget to wash your hands before every diaper change. Clean your baby's bottom with water (warm would be good too), you may use mild and fragrance-free soaps then gently pat the skin dry with a clean towel afterward. 

Some baby wipes might irritate your baby's skin, try avoiding wipes with alcohol or fragrance. 

Don't over-tighten their diapers to minimize skin irritations. If their current diaper is causing them skin irritations, switch to other brands or you can also try using cloth diapers. Babies who are using cloth diapers tend to get fewer rashes.

When your baby has a diaper rash, wash and clean the affected areas with mild soap or cleanser and then make sure that the skin is dry before applying any creams or ointments. After treating your baby's diaper rashes with creams or ointments, let her/him go diaper-free as much as possible. 

As for me, I have tried using Petroleum Jelly (Vaseline) and it helped lessen my baby's diaper rash. 

But there's this one diaper rash ointment that my mother-in-law suggested which is called Vandol. I've also tried it and it's very effective and it really helped soothe my baby's irritating rashes.

*Note: I used these ointments on my baby and it's effective for us, but what works for us may not work for you. So, please consult your pediatrician for proper medication, especially for those experiencing severe rashes. 

How about you, what's the best diaper rash creams or ointments have you tried that worked well for your baby? I'd appreciate you leaving a comment down below and share your thoughts and tips on how you manage your baby's diaper rash. :) 

 

Times are different now. Pollution and climate change are worse. Viruses and diseases are stronger and more aggressive that it is easier for our kids to catch fever, cough, colds, etc. Most especially when our children are so active and loves to play outdoors and mingle with other children who are sick, it would then be easier for them to catch the virus too.

Because of changing times, immunity should be the topmost priority and non-negotiable health benefit of every parent. As a mom, I always give my daughter anything and everything to protect her from any sickness and diseases caused by viruses. I always give her healthy food and drinks like vegetables, fruits, biscuits, milk, etc. which are essential for her growing needs and to keep her healthy too. But since times are different now, these are not enough. That's why I always give my daughter, Ceelin Plus everyday for superior protection. She's the one who keeps on reminding me to give her vitamins everyday and  she loved the apple flavor. :)

Ceelin Plus has Vitamin C PLUS Zinc for Proteksyong Plus. With Ceelin Plus there’s another layer of protection – the first one is the Ceelin helmet which stands for Vitamin C. The additional layer (Plus) is the shield which represents Zinc. 

Vitamin C and Zinc found in Ceelin Plus can actually reduce severity and shorten bout of sickness. Imagine what it can do if it’s used every day – it can really protect our children from getting sick. 

Furthermore, Ceelin Plus has an advantage over other Vitamin C and Zinc products. It has ZincPlus technology which ensures the correct levels of Vitamin C and Zinc; so, the child is assured of superior protection. Ceelin Plus is a product of Unilab.

It's been a while since my last post because I've been busy with different events for "A" Creative Events. ;) I've been busy with my plants too, re-potting them after I got them during the SM Agro-Trade Fair last April of 2015. I think I bought around 10 kinds of cactus and succulents that time... hahaha! Well, we already have a few cactus at home which had been with us for around 5 years already although it's just one variety, it's from a Gymnocalycium specie... I think this is the most common cactus that you can see here in the Philippines... :)

The mother of all our cactus and the very first ones that we had... A Gymnocalycium anisitsii ssp. damsii...

Yup! It has a lot of babies and look at its roots! ;)

I was so lucky to have friends who gave me some cactus and succulents which I will be blogging, soon... ;)

One of the activities we had with our toddler is the Matching Cards. She instantly loved it from the moment I introduced it to her and let her try it. I love this matching cards too, it helped my little one to identify different items, objects, animals, and anything that was on the cards to match. This activity takes longer because there a lot of cards to match. I loved the fact that it keeps her busy and forgot to play games on my tablet. She was kind of hooked into the educational apps that I have downloaded on Google Play which are Agnitus and PBS Parents Play and Learn. She has learned a lot from those apps but I don't want her to be so engrossed in using gadgets at a young age. 

Anyways, I wanted to have different batch of matching cards and so I've searched for free matching card printables online. Then I've found these two: 

 Truck Heads and Tails Cards by Royal Baloo.

You might want to try it on your kids too, it's a fun activity that you can play and bond with your little one. ;)

Color sorting is a fun activity for you and your toddler. It will also make your little one busy and learn at the same time. 

One of the activities that I had with my 2 year old daughter is the Color Sorting. At 1 year old, she can already identify colors. And it seems so easy for her as I watch her sort out the different things and toys that I have laid on the table.

She can also identify the shapes and letters of the ones she had sorted out. And I am so happy and proud of her learning achievements. I guess all moms would be, right? ;)

Sorting colors or shapes can help our child/children develop their thinking skills and most importantly it teaches them to organize things which they can apply in their life later on; like organizing his/her toys, clothes, and other things. :) It's a fun activity that you can try at home. I wanted to share the color sorting printable that I used but I can't find it anymore. But, I found two free printables which is also good, click the photo below to download it.

The other one can be downloaded here: Sorting Colors by teachingmama.org.

You can also make your own Color Sorting if you want, just like what I did in the first photo that I shared. I got some scratch papers and used the back side of it then I made big circles and colored it into different colors. Then you can let your toddler enjoy while sorting. Have fun! :)

Cleaning our home is quite a tedious job but with the right cleaning tools, it will make your life easier. When cleaning, I used to mop the floors first and finished it with a broom. But there's a disadvantage too when using the regular brooms, it shred some of its hair and you'd take another sweep on the floor to get it. Quite tedious, right? But after I've tried the 3M's Quick Sweeper or Easy Sweeper, I have rarely used our old map. Why? It's lightweight, so easy to use and it cleans our floors easily in just a few sweeps! 

The Easy Sweeper mop comes with a microfiber cloth: microfiber for high water absorption and polyester fiber for strong static attraction, which allows for wet and dry cleaning in one. With its strong static attraction it can easily picks up hairs, dust and small particles in one swift motion. This microfiber cloth can easily be attached and detached from mop its head and you can throw the cloth afterwards.

What I also like about the Easy Sweeper is that, it has a mop head that allows for 360-degree rotation, making it easier to clean under your tables, bed and especially the hard to clean corners. This mop can be used in Vinyl Floor, Tile Floor and Hardwood Floors. 

Honestly, it made my cleaning life easier and hassle-free! ;)
