Nursing MommiesPH's Boobstacular Costume Party 2017 Goes Bigger!

Nursing MommiesPH's Boobstacular Costume Party 2017 Goes Bigger!



I personally love Halloween especially the dressing up part and the getting candies bit. So I was totally juiced to be invited to cover the event Boobstacular Costume Party 2017 held by Nursing MommiesPH and My Crib PH. The event targeted mothers who breastfeed their children and welcomed breastmilk donations for the premature babies at the NICU of the Philippine General Hospital. I have been breastfeeding my son for 30 months and counting so I really wanted to attend.  They chose the PBA Cafe at Metrowalk to be the venue and more than 400 attendees fit inside.







The day promised to be fun and exciting with the promise of a magic show, games for moms and dads, a costume parade, trick or treating and lots of raffles and prizes! They held a pre-registration and the event also welcomed walk-in attendees. There were also booths my mompreneurs where eventgoers could shop for clothes and food and other stuff.

























One of the speakers was Tatay Jaime de Guzman, a peer counselor, and breastfeeding advocate who spoke about the importance of a husband's support in the breastfeeding journey of mom and child. He spoke of the acronym KASAMA:

Know the journey
Actively involve yourself
Shield your family from prejudice
Always be positive
Make mommy happy
Aspire to be the best supportive tatay

Then there was the Sunlife financial talk by Rachel Anne Castaneda who spoke about the importance of saving in times of hardship and tragedy.




There were plaques of appreciation given to Nanay Ynez Fernandez ng Arugaan and JS Unitrade and EQ Diapers for their support of the event. Other noteworthy awards were: Best in Costume - Baby, Best Dressed Family of the Ball, Most Creative Costume, Happy Latching Award and Belle and Prince of the Ball.



Imagine my surprise when my son won Prince of the Ball! See his costume below!
