Pregnancy is such a beautiful thing—imagine a human being growing inside you!—that a woman heavy with a child is often pampered and cared for to the hilt. Some women "take advantage" of this time to get the attention they deserve from their partners and make strange demands during the paglilihi stage, knowing their partner will do whatever it takes to satisfy the craving.
For other preggos, their expanding tummies is the perfect excuse to shop — for stylish (but still comfy!) maternity clothes, that is. But for mom-to-be Saab Magalona, that is not the case.
Saab is on the "last stretch" of her pregnancy — approximately 30 weeks based on her blog — but she revealed on Instagram that instead of spending money, she had been using borrowed maternity clothes.
