Isabelle Daza on her challenges as a new mom: “One thing I struggled with is definitely is my weight gain so I compensate by taking nice photos where I’m “glammed up” but the truth is this isn’t my reality! I just I don’t have the guts to post my eye bags and disheveled hair.”

Former Dabarkad Isabelle Daza received a lot of encouraging words after her honest confession on Instagram about her struggles as a first time mom.

Why is giving birth a bittersweet moment for former Dabarkad Isabelle Daza?

The daughter of former Miss Universe Gloria Diaz shared on her social media post what she learned as a mother.

Belle wrote, “Today marks my 8th week after giving birth. My breastfeeding journey has been both wonderful & a challenge: from learning how to latch the baby to burping him- then putting the baby back to sleep after burping, taking him a bath and worrying about jaundice, late night crying and singing weird rhymes to appease him.”

She also admitted that her weight gain has affected her as well. Isabelle gained at least 60 lbs during her pregnancy.

“One thing I struggled with is definitely is my weight gain so I compensate by taking nice photos where I’m “glammed up” but the truth is this isn’t my reality! I just I don’t have the guts to post my eye bags and disheveled hair.”

But despite the difficulties of being a mom, she said that she loves every minute of it.

“Becoming a mom has been a learning experience and I’m loving every minute of it. Ok maybe not the 2am-4am feeding minutes. But now I’m ready to introduce the bottle so I can have a few extra hours of rest a night. #motherhood”
