Mother’s Day is that one special day of the year when Moms are honored.  This is the time when we celebrate their greatness and it is the perfect time to remind them that we are grateful for all of their efforts, care and love for us.

One way to show one’s special thoughts for a mom is by giving her a gift.  For a Breastfeeding mom, there’s no better gift than giving them the support they need on this challenging journey.  Here are some bright gift ideas that will surely be liked by breastfeeding moms:

1. Nursing tops and dresses

2. Nursing covers

3. a high quality breast pump

4. Nursing bra

5.  disposable nursing pads

6.  Malunggay capsules

7. Lactation Cookies

8. Organic Lactating Tea

9.  Gift Certificate for a Lactation Massage

Perhaps, a weighing scale for babies will also do.  This analytical balance scale will let the Mom monitor her baby’s weight gain of at least 0.5 kilos a month.

As Mother’s Day just a couple of days away, let me share to you the compilation of my all time favorite Motherhood quotes.  I’ve got these from various sources on the web and Pinterest.

I’m always like a “girl scout” whenever we’re out and more so when we are on long travels.  Part of my To Bring List is a small plastic bag of generic medicines.  These include tablets, capsules and ointments to treat common discomforts like headaches, upset tummy, dizziness, colds, cough, cuts and wounds, pain muscles.  In other words, I lug around a first aid kit.

For ages now, I’ve been on the look out for this type of medicine travel pack.  I like how it’s so compact and just the right size and not so bulky in the bag.  It also has labels so picking out the right tablet is not confusing.   There are also other similar medicine travel pack in the mall and comes without the labels.  You can mark your own so there are compartments for medicines intended for particular sickness like let’s say epithelial mesothelioma.

If you’re wishing to get this exact medicine travel pack, find this in the following stores:
