Bettinna Carlos, Mikki Eduardo at Gummy
“TOTOO ba ‘to? Totoo bang I’m pregnant?” ang hindi makapaniwalang sabi ng TV host-actress na si Bettinna Carlos nang makumpirmang buntis na siya.
Sa kanyang YouTube vlog, ibinandera ni Bettinna ang kanyang pagdadalang-tao sa unang baby nila ng asawang si Mikki Eduardo matapos makunan noong January, 2022. May isa na siyang anak ngayon, ang 11-year-old nang si Gummy.
Simulang kuwento ni Bettina, bago niya nalamang buntis siya, naka-schedule na sila ni Mikki na gumimik nu’ng araw na yun kasama ang ilang kaibigan.
“Naisip ko, I’m supposed to get my period that day so wala lang, randomly naisip ko to check, this is mga 4:30 in the afternoon, I got the pregnancy test kit.
“And then, I checked, parang wala lang, just to make sure it’s safe to consume alcohol. Biglang nag-positive! There were two lines pero yung second line, faint!” chika ni Bettina.
Aniya, noong nag-pregnancy test siya nang magdalang-tao kay Gummy ay meron ding second faint line kaya feeling niya may baby na sa kanyang tummy.
“Ha!? Totoo ba ito? Totoo bang we’re pregnant? E, we’re not supposed to get pregnant until six months after my pelvic laparotomy,” aniya pa na ang tinutukoy ay ang pinagdaanang surgery matapos magkaroon ng ectopic pregnancy noong January, 2022 kung saan nawala nga ang ikalawa sana niyang baby na si Wammy.

“Sabi ko, ‘Ah, baka wala lang. Baka late na, e, hapon na ako nag-test, e. Baka cheap yung pregnancy test kit ko. So, when I checked tapos nag-positive, sabi ko, ‘Totoo ba ‘to? Totoo bang I’m pregnant?’
“Kasi we were not really actively trying. Parang after losing Wammy, we decided na to take a pause in trying to be pregnant for a while, so hindi talaga namin ine-expect.
“Dahil tinest ko siya ng hapon, sabi ko, ‘Ah, baka kaya lumalabo dahil hapon so tomorrow uli.’
“So the next day, what I did, nag-test ako agad, same test kit. So, malabo pa rin. Baka cheap yung pregnancy test kit so sabi ko, ‘Oh, masyado pang maaga, huwag kang masyadong ma-excite.
“Siguro yung heart ko, parang holding off also on excitement kasi siyempre, coming from a loss, miscarriage, baka mawala na naman so hindi rin ako masyadong give na give na ito na yun, ito na yun,” pagpapatuloy ni Bettinna.
Makalipas ang halos isang linggo, muling nag-pregnancy test ang TV host gamit ang ibang brand at yun na nga, confirmed, totoong-totoo nga — buntis na siya!
Kuwento pa ni Bettinna, sinorpresa nila ni Mikki ang anak na si Gummy at ang yaya nilang si Yatch, “So, nag-lunch out kami after church and then, we were praying, daddy’s praying, eyes are closed.
“And then, secretly, nilagay ko yung pregnancy test sa table, para pag-open ng eyes nila, the table was empty, wala pa food namin. Pag-open ng eyes nila, they’ll see it. They’ll be surprised,” sey pa ng aktres.
Samantala, nabanggit din ni Bettinna na hindi talaga nila in-expect ang kanyang pagbubuntis, “First of all, according to our doctor, we can only start trying to be pregnant again six months after the operation.
“My pelvic laparotomy was in January 28 so dapat July, dapat next month pa kami actively puwedeng mag-try to be pregnant.
“But you know, talagang si God is a higher authority, more sovereign over the doctors. Si God talaga ultimately may hawak ng time, He’s all powerful to dictate life when to allow to happen.
“So kahit pa sabihing six months, if, on the third month, God would want to give it, by all means, He would and He can. We were not really so keen on trying to be pregnant kasi nga, I felt like kaka-move on ko pa lang from Wammy.
“I’m starting to feel better, to feel like myself again, tapos sobrang gulat na wow, we’re pregnant.
“When we think about it, on the same year we had Wammy and lost him, God gave this new baby to us and I am due to give birth in December and all on the same year, end to end!” lahad pa niya.
“When I think about my pregnancy, I can’t help but really say God knows His time talaga for everything. Parang His timing is always perfect.
“When we count backwards and try to determine around when kaya we conceived this baby, it would fall on the week when we celebrated our first anniversary of moving here.
“So, one year na kaming nakatira dito sa La Union and hindi lang yun yung sine-celebrate namin. That’s why I can say na talagang God knows His timing because it was really only during that time when my personal, emotional issues of living here were fully resolved.
“You know, on the first year of our marriage, marami kaming challenges,” mensahe pa ni Bettinna.
Pahabol pa niya, “When we think about probably why the Lord did not allow us to get pregnant in January, I guess it’s because He knew we weren’t fully ready yet, emotionally ready.
“I wasn’t fully emotionally secure yet and it was only when okay, na na-resolve na, naayos na, tapos na, closed book na kung anuman mga issues ko and that’s when the Lord came. So alam Niya talaga yung timing for anything.
“Nakakatuwa kasi parang anniversary gift Niya sa amin yung baby. ‘Oh, one year living here, done with all your issues and your drama, okay you’re ready. Here’s a baby.’
“Kapag iniisip ko yung time ni God, I can’t help but think na ang sweet sweet talaga ni God. As a Father, ang sweet Niya on when and how to give His gifts to His children.
“It was April 19 when we found out we were pregnant, it is exactly three months after we’re pregnant with Wammy, January 19, and then April 19, I don’t know what’s with exactly three months.
“I just felt like ang sweet naman ni God, ang bilis-bilis, hindi namin talaga inaasahan na He will bless us this early,” aniya pa.
