00:05 Imagine, it's been a year since you've--

00:07 She looks smashing!

00:08 Oh no, I don't!

00:09 You look so beautiful!

00:11 Okay, thank you so much for coming again, Chris.

00:13 Of course, I can't not thank you, Uncle.

00:15 Oh, really? We're not going to T.T.G.?

00:17 To be honest, I'm not ready to go back to work,

00:20 but because of you, Uncle, I'm really game today.

00:22 Thank you.

00:23 Because we're celebrating, you said, our first anniversary next week.

00:27 Wow!

00:28 So around this time, the fast talk with Boy Abunda started.

00:32 Congratulations!

00:33 You said, "Thank you."

00:34 Because of you, because of your trust, because of our friends,

00:38 this is what it is today.

00:40 But I have a question. Please sit down.

00:42 Okay.

00:43 Post-partum, really?

00:45 So how are you? How are you doing as a new mother?

00:50 I think it's both beautiful and hard

00:54 because I believe in acknowledging the highs and lows of pregnancy and also post-partum.

01:00 So, to be honest, I really had a hard time, Uncle Boy.

01:04 I didn't expect it to be that hard.

01:06 I was enjoying my whole time being pregnant,

01:09 but I didn't know that it's so hard when you're pregnant.

01:12 What this means is that we hear stories about crying spells,

01:15 or sometimes you don't have time to do your hair.

01:18 Do my hair, eat, take a bath.

01:22 I forgot about my skincare.

01:25 Really?

01:26 Yeah. And I was a cesarean.

01:28 So it was really painful.

01:31 It's really painful when you're a cesarean.

01:35 Your recovery takes a long time.

01:37 So I also had a hard time, Uncle Boy.

01:39 Actually, everything really stopped.

01:42 I stopped vlogging.

01:43 You can't see my social media anymore

01:47 because my world really changed.

01:50 Okay, so those are the lows that we're talking about.

01:53 What are the highs of motherhood?

01:56 The highs are, of course, my baby.

01:59 Even if it's hard, even if there's no sleep,

02:02 you know, you're there, you have a baby.

02:06 You know, you're blessed with a child.

02:08 Because not everyone can be blessed like this,

02:10 so I'm really thankful.

02:12 But the best feeling is when I see that I'm looking for my baby,

02:17 and he's very clingy to me, he smiles at me,

02:20 because now he's reacting, he recognizes me as a mom.

02:23 So that's the happiness I get.

02:26 You know, I was talking to a close friend of mine.

02:29 He told me, and this is scientifically proven,

02:34 "Athletes, do you realize that, for example, you're a runner,

02:38 or you're a basketball or volleyball player,

02:41 when a woman has a baby,

02:44 and when they come back, they come back stronger, smarter."

02:49 They say that the baby is really different.

02:51 And that's contrary to my belief that,

02:55 "Oh, maybe she was affected by her game as an athlete."

02:58 -No. -I'm crying.

02:59 Yes, you will come back stronger.

03:02 Actually, I realized that when I said that I'm strong.

03:05 Because I thought before, I thought this is what I can do.

03:09 But when you become a mom,

03:11 you're willing to do anything, even if you don't sleep,

03:15 and you'll sacrifice everything.

03:18 So I didn't expect that I'm that strong.

03:20 I'm looking at you, I'm listening to you now, Chris.

03:22 I'm excited about the possibilities that will happen

03:26 as a mom, as a person, as an actor.

03:31 I'm looking forward to your next material.

03:33 -Yes. -It's different, right?

03:35 It's different. Okay.
