oh frances, *hugs*

i just want to share that i spent the first three and a half months of my last pregnancy sleeping and being masungit. once i didn't take a bath for two days (almost three actually). i just wanted to be icky. and the husband was sweet enough to indulge me (he didn't mind the no taking a bath thing). fashion, combing my hair, looking good was the last thing on

* BRAVO darling! ha! ha!

* You have every right to own your feelings! And...only an ugly person would have the vomit to tell another person to stop being beautiful.

* Pregnancy is beautiful in the sense that you are with child. The process is....less than romantic
(specially during the last 3 months when your back aches like hell.)- But love is worth it.

many people forget that the purpose of having a personal blog is to say whatever you like.

Mia, please don't tell me what I should be feeling and doing.

If you've been reading this blog, you'd know that who I really am is someone who never dreamed of becoming a mother and married to someone who never dreamed of becoming a dad so this pregnancy is really hard to deal with. We truly were in shock for the first few weeks, not jumping joy happy like the rest of the

Thanks everybody! God bless people like you who encourage me every time, especially when my spirits are flagging.

Stop whining already and just be grateful. Pregnancy isn't a problem that you should have to deal with it but a blessing that you should be thankful for. Other people will say whatever they want but you know who you are and that's what really matters. Just enjoy the duration of your pregnancy and try to stay positive always.

I'm sorry people got so riled up by your personal feelings and observations.
I am not a mother but I've known enough pregnant women to know that it's a sensetive time.
Hormones are haywire and one of the biggest events in their life is taking place and they need support not judgement.

Keep on smiling xx

Don't sweat it Frances... I've been reading you for years now and you know what made me bookmark your blog at first? It was your angsty rants about your dad, prospective sis-in-law etc.

It wasn't pretty and it might not have made you very popular with your family at the time... but I appreciated the honesty and sheer guts it took for you to write those things (I don't

2010-02-09T07:55:28.174+08:00

Game lang ng game! Maybe it's because I know you that I didn't find the post offensive. No, scratch that. That shouldn't matter at all because it's YOUR blog! Hahaha. We're just guests who read because we find you--and what you have to share--interesting. But even though you've allowed us to comment away, I don't think it is in our place to judge what kind of parent

2010-02-09T00:50:30.964+08:00

you know Frances, I have always admired you,
and for this post, I admire you even more.

2010-02-08T23:06:52.504+08:00

My goodness! Affect sila! Hay naku, Frances, go on with your honest self. The world needs more people who could a spade a spade.

P.S. I told you being pregnant ain't romantic mwahahaha Pinapatawa lang kita, wag kang magpa-stress sa kanila. You don't need it! Mwah!

2010-02-08T22:57:01.746+08:00

Personally, I think you should say whatever you want to, however you want to. :) It's your blog after all, and other people are just going to have to deal with it. Now, I think I sound mean. :p

2010-02-08T22:31:54.452+08:00

Oh my..i read your post but i wasn't able to comment back then because i was on my phone.

Seriously in my case, im an optimist. I tend to focus on the lovin compare to the hatin.

Some people might think that im not sincere because i always say good things, but that's what i am. that's why there are some times when i get affected by some hate comments on my blog

2010-02-08T22:21:30.142+08:00

Very well said, Ms. Frances!

It's YOUR personal blog-- people who are offended indirectly should make their own blog and post their sentiments there. I'm not being nasty here, too. I'm just saying that they're the ones reading your blog. Did you plead to them and say, 'Please, with cherries on top, read and comment on my blog?" No.

Just a thought:
