Kapamilya actress Iza Calzado gave an update on Instagram last Thursday, March 30, about the experiences she’s been having as a first-time mother to her newborn, Deia Amihan. 

Iza opened up about the emotional rollercoaster she had days after she gave birth to her baby. It has been two months since the actress gave birth to Deia Amihan.

“This photo was taken a few days after giving birth, right after I cried so hard from a few ‘failures’ I felt I had as a new mother mixed with the deep love I was feeling for my child, the kind I have never felt for anyone before,” she wrote.

The celebrity mom admitted how the first days of her postpartum weren’t easy but added how it got better for her over time. 

“It’s quite a punch, the first few days, weeks post birth. Hindi siya madali. I am still recovering from it all but every day gets better and better. I am on my ninth week postpartum and we are a few weeks away from completing the fourth trimester. This is, by far, the most challenging yet fulfilling journey I have been on and I know it is only the beginning,” she added.

Iza promised her followers that she’ll be giving more updates “when the time is right” for everything. 

“At this point, I find myself navigating this transition in the best way I know how — with faith, compassion, gratitude and love knowing I am divinely guided and supported,” she continued.

“Grabe, what a ride! I am becoming, I am evolving into — wait.. I am a Mother! An imperfectly perfect Mother to my precious child, Deia. Biruin mo yun? A gift indeed. Thank You, Lord,” she ended. 

Iza announced the birth of her daughter last March 26––exactly two months after she gave birth. She took a short break on social media to prepare for Deia Amihan’s arrival.
