LOVELLE

This is me and my flawed face. No filter, no edits, no camera beauty effects. I just turned 35 last September, and to be honest, I hated my flaws. Well, who wouldn't hate pimples, thinning hair (imagine parang may expansion ng airport sa sarili kong mukha, yung kilay ko nawawala), plus rashes, etc.  When this pandemic happened, I have always been in the house, our small business slowed down. I felt like a failure, it was so tough.  My sleeping pattern had changed, my eating habits went really bad (I was stress eating), and my physical activities had been affected. The stress triggered my existing hormonal imbalance (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome). I missed periods, I had allergies, eczema, and fungal infections, altogether. The medications made me feel under the weather. Imagine, I can't even do chores because my skin rashes get worse because of perspiration. I felt lazy, useless, demotivated, and sad.  Turning point. I can't do this to myself. I nee...

When I wrote PCOS and Baby ( http://lovelledeleon.blogspot.com/2012/05/pcos-and-baby.html?m=1 ) a year ago, aside from showing the world how happy I am because of my pregnancy, what I really wanted was to inspire other women who are suffering from stress and pressures because of this condition. I never expected that this will reach a lot of people, but I guess I have achieved what I really wanted then. Since I published it, I can no longer count how many friends I’ve gained and women/ wives (and husbands) that I have inspired. Just this morning, I saw a lot of unread messages in my personal Facebook account, in a folder I just accidentally opened. I saw messages as late as last year, which were filtered because senders are not in any way connected to me or any of my friends. I guess that happened because of the strict filtering option on Facebook. I did my best to reply to each messages. I am really sorry for some who were already losing hope. There were also good news from women who s...

Celebrating Life: Look at Us Now Published with Blogger-droid v2.0.10

It's been a while.. I have not even posted my baby's newborn pics.. here she is, now celebrating her 4th month. :) ♥ just sharing! posted from Bloggeroid

Sometimes, it's really frustrating that since I got pregnant, there are many things that I can no longer do... Either I was restricted to do things, or I just can't... Heartburn, fatigue, and difficulty of breathing are my worst enemies. But by just feeling my baby's movements in my tummy, I'd start forgetting all the negatives, and it would make me feel happy. This pregnancy gave me a sense that I am never alone...  I just can't wait to see her... I am really thankful that He blessed our marriage with this pregnancy. I thank Him for blessing me with a fruit in my womb...
