MANILA, Philippines – Neri Naig took a break from social media as an extra precaution for her sensitive pregnancy.
This is her second pregnancy after her miscarriage in 2015.
“Hindi talaga ako nag-social media ng a month 'ata kase nagpapahinga lang ako at ayaw ko rin ng may mga kausap. Gusto ko tahimik lang,” she said in her post on Instagram on Monday.
She also didn’t talk to her friends for a time, and only spoke with her mother, siblings and husband Chito Miranda.
Neri said keeping a small circle of people around her is her way of avoiding stress, and would rather focus on doing things that make her happy, such as painting, completing a puzzle or singing.
She admitted that she’s having difficulty with her pregnancy, but added: “Hindi ako nagrereklamo dahil ang dream ko talaga maliban sa magka-farm, ay maging housewife at maging mommy. 'Di bale na ako 'yung mahirapan basta okay at safe si baby.”
She then thanked her husband Chito, who has always taken good care of her.
“Kahit nahihirapan ako, 'andyan siya lagi at napapagaan n'ya kahit papaano ang pakiramdam ko. Kaya saludo ako sa lahat ng mga mister na 'andyan para sa mga misis nila lalo na't nahihirapan magbuntis,” she said.
Chito made the announcement about Neri’s pregnancy on Father’s Day through his Instagram account.
