Rica Peralejo shared an update of her motherhood and nursing journey to their Baby Manu who recently had to undergo lip and tongue tie revision.
Tongue-tie is a condition in which an unusually short, thick or tight band of tissue tethers the bottom of the tongue's tip to the floor of the mouth. Children who are tongue-tied or lip-tied have a lot of trouble nursing and eating, but the condition can be treated with a surgical cut.
With the challenges she faced, Rica was inspired upon seeing her son's smile, which she considers to be a source of inspiration for combating stress.

"That’s my dose of oxytocin, to combat the cortisol of rejection and overall stress,” Rica added.
Manu is Rica's second son with husband, Joseph Bonifacio.
