What’s the Best Tasting Milk for Pregnant Women?

I just gave birth five months ago. When I was still pregnant, I was given the chance to try three different kinds of milk that is best suitable for pregnant women. Every time I visit my OB-Gynecologist, there was always a sample of milk especially made for pregnant women given by the promo representatives of each milk in the waiting area. I have tried at least three of them and I would like to give you my honest opinions regarding its taste because this kinds of milk are known to have unpleasant taste since it is loaded with vitamins and essential nutrients so it is tend to taste like medicine even if it is flavored.

First is Anmum Materna. I’ve tried Anmum even on my first and second pregnancy and I can say that it improves its taste since then. The original flavor tastes like fresh cow’s milk. It doesn’t have a stinky smell and for those people who used to drink an ordinary full cream milk, it has no other distinct taste except for its extra thickness and creaminess. Chocolate flavor and the new hazel nut flavor were my favorites.

Second is ProMama. We all know that ProMama and Anmum is the two well-known milk for pregnant women in the market. But honestly, I do not like the taste of ProMama. My Aunt gave me a box of it and I can hardly consume even a glass. It has this unpleasant smell and the taste of medicine is undeniable. But I believe that it has the same vitamins and nutrients for pregnant women.

The third one is Similac Mom. It is the newest in the market and I get to taste the vanilla flavor. For me it is too sweet, tastes good though, but I do not like my milk to be too sweet for my palette. But it has the lowest fat content among the three. It won’t give you unwanted fats which is best suitable for figure-conscious moms out there.

So, for me Anmum Materna tastes just right especially the hazel nut flavor. Highly recommended.

Conti's Ensaimaditas and Cheese Swirl

And as usual, this is one of the delightful sweet pasalubong from hubby. He’s the sweetest person on earth who loves simple presents and big surprises. He arrived at home from his night shift duty at around 8am. My little boy and I just got up from bed, me having my cup of coffee and my little boy having his glass of milk. It’s just another morning of what-to-prepare-for-breakfast dilemma of a mom when he arrived with 2 boxes of bread. I would like to share my honest review with Conti's Ensaimaditas and Cheese Swirls.

Geronimo Stilton: Fa-mouse-ly funny and whisker-licking-good Adventure Series

My kids are just as fond of books as I am. They grew up choosing books over toys, choosing National Bookstore or Booksale over Toy Kingdom. My eldest even saves his daily baon to be able to buy his favorite book or kids’ magazines because I also teach them to be responsible when it comes to spending and saving money. As early as one year old, I encourage my kids to read because as a reader myself, I want them to spend more time reading a book than watching TV while inside the house because I learned that being too addicted to the television increases hyperactivity for kids. There are times when I see ourselves sitting in every corner of the house holding books. I have my own collections of different fiction and non-fiction books. The kids have their own collections of books, too and one of them is the Geronimo Stilton series of adventures. Php285.00 each at National Bookstore

Nutri-Del Dry Infant cereal for Infants and Young Children

My youngest son is already at his sixth month this March and I was able to try this new dry infant cereal for babies starting at six months onward. My baby Miguel tried it and he loves it! What I liked most about Nutri-Del is it’s locally made. It is manufactured by AGRIBIOSCIENCE INC. at Aliaga, Nueva Ecija, Philippines. I sympathize with the local manufacturers and laborers in the country especially these days when foreign companies’ dominance is undeniable. Nutri-Del infant cereal is a rice-based from formulated single grain, gluten free cereal. It is loaded with essential vitamins and minerals to sustain our baby’s nutrient demand for optimum growth and development.
