Dutdot (noun, mother’s TOUCH!), is a parenting and baby care blog written by a Filipina expat mom in the middle of NOWHERE. This blog contains natural letters to my growing baby.

Real motherhood is tough yet it’s the sweetest, most rewarding occupation that has been given to me by God, to be a mother. So far this is the highest paid occupation that I ever got into, for the rest of my life, that is to be a mother; the price of which is PURE LOVE and ENERGY.

Being a new mom entails growing pains and yes, sweet rewards. There are times that my side of being a human will show, after all, I am a human being first before I became a mother.

About the Header:

I am a startup mom, and yes, a startup founder. The dutdot.com will now entirely focus on parenting and baby care; hence, the feeding bottle. The Web2.0 tools, as background, signify my other side, that of being a startup founder. I am attending to my own company when my baby is busy all by herself, and her stomach is full, or when she’s asleep.

Dutdot (TOUCHPOINTS) - the author’s interface of herself as a brand/product/service aside from being a wife, mother, daughter, sister, friend, woman, person, full-time blogger, freelance writer, and startup founder.

She’s everything that her hands could touch on the keyboard; everything that her eyes could read from online and offline books. She’s all that she can be.

She’s DUTDOT~ not just a DOT on the Web.
