She wrote alongside a throwback photo of her: “Me, 16 weeks pregnant and feelin’ m’self.haha
.
I openly spoke about struggling with post partum depression since giving birth, and now we are headed back go Siargao after 2 months of being in the city with gloomy weather. I’ve been listening to your suggestions and following some advice, but I feel going back to our island home is what’s going to be most impactful. ‘Sunny days are coming!’, is what I have been telling myself whenever I feel ‘confused’ about where I’m at in life.”

“Im still sure of it. And I dont just mean actual sunlight, but brighter days in general. I do miss my old self. Myself, before having 2 kids. But not enough to regret the life I have now. I love where I’m at, even if it hasn’t been easy. That’s what keeps me going. Regardless of how long this PPD lasts or how it goes away, having @chepoxz and my 2 girls by my side keeps me from giving up on my dreams. And this is why I’m sure that sunny days are coming,” Andi added.
