On her third pregnancy, she said that her doctor decided to have a scheduled cesarean in order to avoid any risk because of her age.
“Talagang nag-ingat talaga ako meaning, I really ate healthy food, tapos inalagaan ko sarili ko. Nag-e-exercise ako, pero lumaki pa rin si baby… But anyway, 9.3 pounds! Biruin n’yo ‘yun!” she said. “Nung nanganak ako, same ‘yung feeling … Ang sarap nung feeling na ‘yung parang, ‘Wow! Ang galing talaga ni God. Ito ‘yung miracle of life.’”
Danica also shared that she was immensely thankful that nothing bad happened during her birth, saying that she felt the presence of God throughout her procedure.
Marc Pingris and Danica Sotto first met last 2005 and got married in a Christian ceremony last March 2007. It was last month when the couple celebrated their 16th wedding anniversary.
