hi vern! thanks for being vulnerable. im 30 weeks pregnant too and as a second time mom, i want to share with you that postpartum (or what they call the 4th trimester) is even harder than pregnancy. i wasnt prepared for it and didnt expect it to be harder. not to scare you but to give you a heads up because thats something that i dont hear people talking about. we are all so focused on pregnancy but i didnt know the newborn stage (and breastfeeding!!!) was the tougher part. prepare for it and make sure you have a support system. hang in there, momma!
Hi Vern! Thank you for being so brave and upfront in sharing your joys and struggles. Not everyone will understand your journey, some will as you said be dismissive or even downright mean and judgmental. The thing to remember is when it comes right down to it, everything is just background noise and you alone have the power to choose what to listen to, what to accept, what to learn from. Motherhood is a precious gift. It is not without its challenges but once you finally hold Baby Nathan in your arms, everything will be worth it, and everything will fall into place. Will be adding my prayer to everyone else’s - for protection as well as safe, complication-free delivery, and over-all blessings and grace for your beautiful family.
Oh my been watching you and verniece since the beginning and i also have difficulty getting pregnant and my pregnancy journey was soo hard and sensitive. I currently live here in thailand with my husband and my little miracle. Stay strong dear. And GIVE YOURSELF SOME GRACE… you are a warrior and now a soon to be a MOM❣️
I have been watching you for quite sometime now, and I cannot be more happier for you and your husband. I pray that your pregnancy reaches full term, and you deliver safely. Can’t wait to meet (virtually) your little one, when he’s ready to come out at full term of course.😊 God bless you!
Every bit of emotion is totally normal and valid. When I was pregnant, I felt more nervous than excited, I felt so guilty because my baby might feel that I don’t want her, but when she came out, all negative emotions were gone, it’s just a totally different kind of joy and happiness, believe me, you will feel that when baby Nathan is out. Pray and don’t worry, everything will be okay, God will be with you. 🙏🙏🙏
Hi, Vern. This is my first time commenting on your vid since the day ive discover your yt thru suggestions (a month ago). Im not even a mom but i really enjoy your vids. Just you, sharing your life, is so relaxing and refreshing. You’re an inspiration to girls (like me) so thank you!! Also, youl’ll be a great mom for sure!
Hi Vern! Thank you, for sharing your IVF story, i felt like I was able to connect to moms more going through their IVF journey. This week, while waiting for my turn for an ultrasound (nope, Im not pregnant 😊), I met a fellow Mom who is pregnant and she mentioned that the it is their IVF baby. She is also from Cebu!! I haven’t experienced IVF but because of iv been following your vlog, I really felt that it became so much easier for us to connect and that I was able to understand the terms that she used, and the journey that she is now. Thank you, Vern. You are touching loves through your vlog. Praying for a healthy remaining weeks of pregnancy!
If you got such feelings now better get to talk to a psychologist to help you navigate and process those thoughts and feelings. It better to have that talk with someone who can understand you more and help you. Its much more difficult adjustments when Nathan is out. Praying for you..
Really like and love u Vern.eversince i am a fan up untill now.im always watching your Vlog.keep it up!we are here praying for ur safety delivery soon and we are also excited to see the “BaBy”we love u❤
Hi ate Vern! I am also 30 weeks pregnant rn. Yes our feelings are totally valid. We may be feeling guilt (due to our hormones) but that doesnt mean our feelings would not be valid. Its normal. Just feel it. Dont ignore it. Share it if it does makes you feel better. We all need someone to talk to. I also feel the same thing too. You are not alone. We are going through this and this too shall pass. We can do this! Aja!
You got this momma!!! God has prepared you for this! Its okay feel overwhelmed but that doesnt mean youre not grateful! Nathan is so lucky to have you as his momma🤍💫
I get you momma. I HATED my pregnancy, but that doesn’t mean I don’t love my daughter. I just hated the fact that I cant do some things that was part of my daily routine. I mourned the fact that I will never be the same again. I pitied myself for bearing all the pains and restrictions of pregnancy while my partner stayed the same. Though I have the best loving and supportive husband and papa to my daughter, I hated feeling like shit. Brace yourself for the “fourth trimester” and breastfeeding, it hit me like a ton of bricks! But everything is temporary and I believe it will get better. Keep fighting momma!
It's okay Mama Vern! I don't know what to say since I haven't been pregnant though I was by my sisters' side when they were so I kinda understand what you feel. But, I know that you would miss these feelings when your baby is out. It's okay to have those complains, tao ka lang din naman, and it's really exhausting to be carrying a human inside your body. Keep safe always! Will keep on praying for you, and your baby's safety and health.
i understand and feel what you are feeling rn. when i was pregnant my hormones were also all over the place then post partum blues came it became worst. but aftr a year thank God gradually everything came back to how it was prepregnancy. but at the same time everything is now different with a baby. you can do it vern.
Thank you for always updating us even I know it's not easy this stage of your pregnancy. God Bless u Ms. Vern! Your feelings are all valid! It's just the hormones! You may not know me but it feels like I am also ur sister online =)
Hi vern, im an ob-gyne nurse, wen i still have no baby, everytime i see pregnant patients, i cannot relate ofcourse , no empathy at all, i do my works and responsibilities but no empathy at all to them , the pain they feel , the uncomfort they experience, all i see is that they were pregnant plain simple. However wen i experienced to get pregnant, that was when i realized that Jesus this thing is A LOOOOOOOOTTT BIGGGER than i imagine! That was the time i realized that PREGNANCY is a roller coaster. It made you humble, and strong and your faith to God is just becomes bigger and bigger everyday. YOU WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND until YOU EXPERIENCE it talaga. 9 mos i your womb and after that another challenge as a mother but you will get through it each day. hold on vern! ❤ congrats to u and your family for the angel that is coming..
This hormonal outbursts MAY be worse post partum. So I suggest you BOTH make efforts to prepare your mental health for the newborn phase. You and your husband are a team. So dont take everything personally. Pareho kayo. Prepare for the birth of the NEW YOU as much as you prep for the birth of your little one. Hoping for better hormonal moments for you, Momma! Your struggles are valid.
Malapit na naman akong magiging tita shee because of baby nathan❤. Im praying for your safety delivery vern and baby nathan ❤️ enjoy the few weeks before baby arrives ❤❤❤
ka try ko same dati 3rd tri pud. Every time I feel anxious naay voice na magsigeg balik2 which is a word or thoughts kahit matulog mra nako siya ug gna memorize. There was also a time na I totally can't sleep. Pero it will just go. You can do it momma! Take it easy and get more sleep take care!
It's normal what you feel.. even giving birth to my 2nd child still ganun pa rin nararamdaman ko.. i hope whatever way of giving birth you choose dont get pressure kasi the important things is the safety. Love you😊
Bedrest din ako until 37 weeks. Then at 39 weeks nanganak ako. Kng anong hirap ng pagbubuntis ko, pinadali nmn ni baby ang delivery ko. I hope sayo din. 😍

My son's name is Nathaniel. Nathanael or God has given... He is 15 now and boutan kaayu. How I wish we are kapitbahay here in Cebu Vern.. bisan pa mag chikka ta everyday about your pregnancy I don't mind. The anxiety and the fear you feel right now, trust me you will forget that.. You will even forget how painful it is after giving birth 😂😂😂
