   N adiva is turning 3 this year. Basically my "Terrific 2" is coming to an end - hopefully - or does it ever end?  Right now I have my work really cut out as a mother, a sister, a friend,a role model and etc to this amazing little mini me. Through the years (2 years) I have watched her grow and learn a couple of stuff. I learnt that what ever I do as a mother affects her either positively or negatively so I had to cut down a lot of things. I watch how I speak, how I dress, What I eat and most importantly how I treat people. It is not an easy task though. People think that a daughters trouble begins with maybe the Menses or the teenage years but I believe its not. Charity begins at home - Make hay while the sun shines- is a proverb I live by when it comes to parenting. Deep down I knew/know that I wanted to raise a girl who is self reliant, intelligent. A girl who thinks on her feet, a girl who can cope with every situation, a girl who is not afraid to speak her...

One thing that most people dont know about me is my love for Cars.. Good cars... I have always had a thing for Subarus.. I guess that is why I got married to a Subie Driver (hehehe Kidding) which explains why our wedding convoy had all Subz apart from the Bride's Car (Merc Avant E grande - Obsidian Black(I should make a review fo this))  Any way I have officially found my Subie Soul mate.. The 2017 Subaru BRZ...   So today am reviewing Him.. yea.. if i buy it.. it's definately a He... hihihi!!   First of all It is said to be a mix of high power, various features along with a moderate pricing range (Totally worth it i may say) . These characteristics are what makes this model a highly anticipated vehicle in the Subaru lineup. This auto promises to offer new exterior along with engine with upgraded production abilities. Improved body of upcoming BRZ is made with better balance of front part as well rear one. The centre of gravity is lowered now. It means...

  Hello Mamas! Today I’ll be sharing with you some very important information on breast health, and more specifically, Mastitis. I have had this with my little baby girl as shared in my previous post (Click here to read) . At first, I wasn’t sure what was happening to my body. I felt nauseous and feverish and had no idea what was going on. In this post, I’ll share with you some of the signs of mastitis and different mastitis treatment methods thanks to Dr.Google and my experience! What is Mastitis anyway? Well according to Wiki.... It is an inflammation of the mammary gland in the breast, typically due to bacterial  infection via damaged nipple. in a layman's language, Breast infections are usually caused by a common bacteria ( Staphylococcus aureus  ) found on normal skin. The bacteria enter through a break or crack in the skin, usually on the nipple. The infection takes place in the fatty tissue of the breast and causes swelling. This swelling ...

We discovered that we were pregnant 2 monthss after my dowry ceremony. Excitement was an understatement for me and my now Husband, we had to move in together as he wanted to “Watch us grow” (can I get an Aaww...) During my pregnancy journey I had so much to deal with, from loss of appetite, drastic weight loss, dark tainted skin for real, swollen feet, feeble feet and a number of other stuff like I hated perfumes, tooth paste (I was brushing though) etc.. I struggled and cried most of the times (pregnancies and heightened emotions) I literally did not eat anything for the first 7.5 months but when we went for our routine clinics, the baby in a way had added weight and was very healthy. Fast forward, at exactly 41 weeks I was still pregnant and I was worn out. On the Friday 26 th June 2016, I had an appointment at the hospital I was opting to deliver from for a routine check. I had packed my hospital bag thanks to the 36DOJ (My Power Team of Super Mamas). I was ready, ready ...

2 Months after my dowery payment (ruracio) I discovered that am paged.... I wasn't scared but I knew some people were.... I was happy as we both wanted the baby.... Hubby was happy n he just could not hide it... We had to go to hospital to confirm and trust me it was even more exciting. Plans had to be made no..... Rather changed.... My wedding got postponed as we did not want to jeopardize the situation neither did I want to be a pregnant bride. I know some are comfortable with that but I was not. The first 7.5 months were not easy for us,Baby hubby n I...  Juggling between hospital,sick bed n work. Throwing up anything that tried to make its way down my throat. I lost so much weight and my collar bones became so pronounced. I started regretting why but I thank God hubby was always there for me. I remember one time coming from work my feet refused to move.. Stuck at tiles and carpet gate on Mombasa road. I had to sit on the grass and call him. He literally left work and...
