January 14, Amy Perez, along with boyfriend Carlo Castillo, announced in the afternoon entertainment talk show The Buzz that she was pregnant. Amy, host of DZMM's AMY, About Me and You, and Carlo, a reporter from the same radio station, have been going out for three months. The two revealed that the pregnancy was planned.
After the show, a PEP (Philippine Entertainment Portal) contributor reported, Amy experienced spotting.
According to www.health-cares.net, "Spotting is light bleeding similar to your period and it can happen at any time during pregnancy, but it is most common during the first trimester. Although chances are that it is nothing, the odds of possible complications should be ruled out... However, because bleeding is the most common warning sign of impending miscarriage, any sign of spotting or bleeding should be reported to your healthcare provider immediately."
The PEP contributor added that Amy was rushed to St. Luke's Medical Center, and was later seen sobbing on her way out. Amy was said to have been advised by the doctors to go on bed rest for a month.
Amy is yet to give a statement about her and the baby's health condition.
