Jennica Garcia took to Instagram to announce the good news!

Actress Jennica Garcia couldn't contain her happiness as she shares with her social media followers the news of her pregnancy.

She wrote: "What a beautiful gift from God before the year ends. I am PREGNANT with our second child! ???????? Alwyn and I have been trying since January, ever since the year started that is why I just can't contain the joy in my heart."

However, Jennica's pregnancy this time around is a little difficult as her doctor has diagnosed her with threatened abortion as she experiences contractions on almost a daily basis. She is now placed under bed rest and on medications. 

Jennica is married to actor Alwyn Uytingco and together they have a two-year-old baby girl they named Mori.

Despite her delicate condition, Jennica is still in high spirits and even jokes about having three more kids. "Salamat, Panginoon at ito na ang simula ng aking pangarap na magkaroon ng isang malaking pamilya. Dalawa na sila, tatlong chikiting na lang po! We appreciate all those who are praying for the good health of our second child. Maraming salamat po!"

 

What a beautiful gift from God before the year ends. I am PREGNANT with our second child! ???????? Alwyn and I have been trying since January, ever since the year started that is why I just can't contain the joy in my heart. I am having a difficult pregnancy this time around. My doctor diagnosed our condition with threatened abortion because I've been contracting on almost a daily basis, while having my trans-v ultrasound, doctor said I was contracting but I couldn't feel it. Because of this I was asked to be on bed rest and take some medications. I cancelled all Kalinga Ni Nanay Classes for the month of December and January with the hope that by February, everything would go smoothly and our family can go back to our usual rhythm. I appreciate my husband and Mori even more now that I am carrying another baby. Both has been very understanding of what I am going through. Even my 2-year-old started being patient with me. I hear her talking to her doll, how they must keep their voices down so I could rest. Haaay... Salamat Panginoon at ito na ang simula ng aking pangarap na magkaroon ng isang malaking pamilya. Dalawa na sila, tatlong chikiting na lang po! We appreciate all those who are praying for the good health of our second child. Maraming salamat po!
