Actress and content creator Megan Young opened up about her challenging first trimester of pregnancy in a recent episode of her podcast with husband Mikael Daez.

Megan shared that she experienced a range of pregnancy symptoms. "Ang dami mong nararamdaman that time. You have all the symptoms, I guess that you would normally feel when you're pregnant," she recounted.

One of the earliest and most intense symptoms Megan felt was constant exhaustion. "First symptom that I ever felt... sobrang inaantok ako. I would sleep the whole day and I was just so tired na akala mo nag-work out ako ng apat ng oras for me to sleep that long," she shared.

Megan went on: "Definitely andun 'yung fatigue, I felt very, very sleepy, to the point na hindi ko matingnan 'yung phone ko, hindi ko matingnan 'yung laptop ko. So hindi ako nakakapag-games, hindi ako nakakanood, tulog lang talaga."

A self-proclaimed coffee lover, Megan was also shocked to find herself repulsed by the drink. "You guys know how much I love coffee. In my first trimester, I hated coffee so much. I didn't like the smell, I didn't like the taste, I didn't even want to be near it," she recalled.

"I started making coffee for you (referring to Mikael) in the beginning but eventually I had to stop because I couldn't handle it. I cried because I was so sad that I didn't like coffee. I wanted to like it so much pero at that moment, sobrang hate ko ang kape."

Megan also noticed a shift in her food preferences, gravitating towards simple meals. "Nagkaroon din ako ng food aversion that means there were a lot of food na ayaw ko talaga. And the only food that I liked was children's food, as in simple lang, plain Jane food. I like nuggets, I like potatoes, I like rice. Ayaw ko ng masarsa, ayaw ko ng masabaw," she recalled.

It was in December when the celebrity couple announced that they are expecting their first child. 

Mikael and Megan are expecting a baby boy.
