TULAD ng mga nakaraan niyang pagbubuntis, kinakarir uli ni Iya Villania ang pagwo-workout para mapanatili ang malusog na pangangatawan at ng kanyang baby.
Ibinahagi ng Kapuso actress at TV host ang kanyang pang-araw-araw na buhay ngayon bilang pregnant mom of four, lalo na ang kanyang everyday routine as a wifey and working mommy.
Nag-post si Iya sa kanyang Instagram ng kanyang pregnancy journey para sa ikalimang anak nila ng asawang si Drew Arellano.
“With this growing belly, A5’s hardening bones, inevitable weight gain, rubbing thighs (not that I ever had a thigh gap) the struggle is getting so real.
Baka Bet Mo: Chito inabuso ang katawan: Walang paki sa health dati, rakenrol eh!
“I’m having mixed feelings about being pregnant during the Christmas season, (it’s) good ’cause it’s a great time to excuse yourself from the gift giving (because stressing over gifts, money and logistics is unnecessary for mama and baby).
“And the Christmas rush might help lessen the dragginess of the pregnancy, BUT it also ain’t a good season because…” ang caption ni Iya sa kanyang IG post with matching pig emoji.
Dagdag pa ng “Chika Minute” host, “So this is me at the moment feeling like a whale having to roll from one side to another.”
Pagpapatuloy pa niya, “Some might say, ‘why not just rest, slow down, and enjoy the rest of your pregnancy?’
“And my answer is because this is already slowing me down and I can’t enjoy being a mother, without the strength to be able to still do the things I love doing with them!
“Besides, aside from giving myself total rest and recovery after delivery, maybe one day I will be forced to stop and chill for who knows what reason.
“So while I can and while it is still beneficial for myself, the baby and my family, I will keep moving.
“Movement and working out might look and feel different for me right now but that’s just the reality of pregnancy and I just have to roll with it.
“Cheers to everyone who’s trying to stay fit, healthy and strong for themselves and for the people they love,” mensahe pa ni Iya.
Sa panayam ng “Fast Talk with Boy Abunda”, sinabi ni Iya na mas lumalakas ang katawan niya kapag nagwo-workout siya na aprubado ng kanyang mga doktor.
“Malaking bagay that I’m healthy and fit, because then I’m able for my family.
“Mas may pasensya ka, mas may endurance ka, masasamahan mo sila sa mga trip nila,” ani Iya.
Inamin din niya na hindi planado ang kanyang pagbubuntis this year, “It was not planned, but it’s always a welcome surprise.
“It was always a welcome accident, because I always knew that unless he wasn’t tied (vasectomy) there was a possibility,” aniya pa.
Ikinasal sina Drew at Iya noong January 31, 2014 at biniyayaan ng apat na anak, sina Primo, Leon, Alana, at Astro.
