Top of the Morning: Nadine Samonte Gushes About Baby and Being A New Mom

1. Nadine Samonte gushes about baby and being a mom

"Buong gabi magkausap kami, so cute my baby Heather. Well, hindi naman ako nakatulog simula nung lumabas siya at hindi siya makatulog kapag wala siya sa dibdib ko. Hay ang sarap maging isang ina. Ang sarap ng feeling," the new mom wrote as caption to a photo of her daughter Baby Heather Sloane. Nadine also shared her first shot at breastfeeding, that even if it hurts, she's pushing hard to nurse her newborn. "Naumpisahan ko na ang hirap nung wala pa siya, ngayon pa ba ako bibigay? No way!" Nadine says, referring to having APAS, a pregnancy condition that requires her to take over 50 tablets a day. "I love you so much my Heather you are God's greatest gift to us and I will always thank Him. You are so precious my little one. We will take care of you my love." Nadine also thanked everyone who prayed for her and her baby's health. (pep.ph)


2. Look: New photos of Iya Villania and Drew Arellano's baby Antonio Primo

Before giving birth, the TV host wasn't sure if she would be quick to share her newborn baby's photos, but only a few hours after Iya and Drew welcomed baby Antonio Primo, the new dad couldn't help but share the good news on Instagram. Now, just two days after, the couple are "sharenting" their first days of parenthood on the photo-sharing community. "Totoo yung chismis... Walang masyadong tulog once you give birth. But then you discover how selfless you can actually be. Sleep isn't as important as attending to him. I love this little boy so much!!! Seems like he enjoyed his first night home!" Iya shared.

3. Watch: Bianca Gonzalez's daughter Lucia says "Dada!"

TV host Bianca Gonzalez-Intal recently posted a video on Instagram that shows her daughter Lucia saying "Dada!" In the video you can hear a voice instructing the little one to say Dada -- and she obliges accordingly. The voice even asks Lucia to do her pa-cute face, but she only wants her dada. Baby Lucia just turned 10 months last week, and she's clearly growing up to be a daddy's girl, even trying on his dad's sports shoes! JC posted a photo of it on his Instagram with the caption, "Daddy, how do I look?"


4. Chynna Ortaleza shares photo of daughter Stellar's bed

"That moment when your daughter's bed is better than yours!" the new mom wrote on Instagram. Baby Stellar's crib is a definite stunner with its simple black and white beddings and pillows customized by Zyji, a few stuffed toys, and accented by a throw pillow with a colorful unicorn that was a giveaway during her Christening. Chynna is yet to introduce to the world her new baby Stellar. Judging by her posts about her and daughter's new-mom and new-baby essentials, we're pretty sure they are having a grand time. We're still eagerly waiting for Baby Stellar's first photo!


5. Mariel Rodriguez visits PBB house

The currently on-leave Pinoy Big Brother host went back to Kuya's house to give some tips about how to care for pregnant women to prepare them for when the pregnant sister of Yong Muhajil, one of the male housemates, joins them in the house. Yong only knew about the pregnancy when he reunited with his sister inside the PBB house. "Every pregnancy is different... Para kasi sa akin e, it's such a beautiful time para sa taong iyon," Mariel said. "It's such a precious time na feeling ko, tayong nasa paligid niya, gagawin natin ang lahat para maging happy iyong environment, maging healthy, so iyon ang pinaka-importante na puwede natin gawin," she added. We think the teenage girls learned a thing or two from the mom-to-be, who is now currently in her third trimester. (abs-cbn.com)
