In her post, Pamu dedicated a long post to her obstetrician-gynecologist, Dr. Bev Ferrer.
PRE-BIRTH PREPARATIONS
She and Mitchell only met Dr. Bev in February 2023, but in such a short period of time, they had been prepared for the start of their journey as soon-to-be parents.
Most importantly, Pamu felt "safe...yung magaan sa pakiramdam everytime nagpapa-check-up kami..."
She stumbled upon Dr. Bev's Facebook page last year.
"Ang dami nyang magagandang post about pregnancy and giving birth advices kaya naman yun pa lang answered prayers agad."
But it took eight months and a lot of effort before finally getting a reply from Dr. Bev.
The new mom recalled (published as is), "Tapos di na ako mapakali nag msg na ako sa kanya sa IG,FB,Tiktok page nya para reach out sya..., ako pray ulit ako na sana mag reply sya and then yung friend pala ng kapatid ng husband ko kilala nila si doc bev dahil patient din sila ni doc kaya na connect nila ako with doc bev."
DELIVERY
In her post, Pamu described Dr. Bev as a "super hands-on and chill" doctor who made her feel comfortable and safe during her delivery.
"Wala akong kabang naramdaman dahil well explained lahat ng mga tanong ko and yung mga bagay na di ko alam.
"Basta ang masasabi ko maikli man yung panahon na inalagaan ako ni doc satisfied patient nya ako. [emoji]"
With Dr. Bev's guidance and help, she had an unmedicated vaginal birth, which made Pamu feel like a female superhero.
The Star Magic talent related, "BTW guys grabe si Doc bev ginawa nya akong wonder woman amazing kasi na gulat lang din ako na kaya ko pala mag unmedicated vaginal birth."
Congratulations, Pamu, and welcome to motherhood.
