Sinalubong ni Meryll Soriano ang bagong taon sa pamamagitan ng pagpapakilala niya ng kanyang anak kay Joem Bascon.
Sa lastest post ng actress, inamin nitong sinabihan siya ng kanyang doctor na risky at difficult raw ang kanyang panganganak sa edad na 38.
"At 38, my doctor told me that it’s risky and difficult. I had anxiety over this on the latter part of my pregnancy.
I also acquired Gestational Diabetes (GDM) on my 6-7 month of my pregnancy. Which meant 4 x a day of glucose tests, 4 x a day of insulin shots and nth goodbyes to donuts, chocolates and cakes until I give birth.
So, I worked out 4-5 x a week, healthy food intake and baby yoga as much as I could. It was hard work and it was difficult and tiring most of the time. But, again, my age is a factor. I did what was needed to be done.
Voila! I made it. I did it! I am so proud to have a healthy pregnancy and safe delivery."
Sa pareho niyang post ay nagpapasalamat siya sa mga sumuporta sa kanya lalo na kay Joem, sa kanyang doktor at pamilya.
“But, I couldn’t have done it without Dud. He helped me stay on track. He stopped buying Cloud 9 and HawHaw. He did [the] pregnant workout with me. And, there are no words to explain the taking-care-of-me part. He’s the best. Thank you so much, Dud. Special thanks to my rockstar OB. She has been my doctor since even before I got pregnant with Eli. I can’t thank her enough. Thank you to all the doctors and nurses that took care us while we were in MMC. We are the happiest to get to share this experience to our parents and family. Family is everything. And, to Kuya Eli, who has been secretly wishing for a brother since he was 10. Bless his heart.”
