Paulina Sotto, the daughter of ace comedian Vic Sotto with former partner Angela Luz, is preparing to welcome her first child with her husband Jed Llanes soon.
She made sure to capture these moments of excitement as she posed for her first maternity photo shoot.
Showcasing her baby bump, the 25-year-old Paulina posted the photos on her Instagram account.
“We found out about this pregnancy on January 2, 2020, the day after our third wedding anniversary. I was overwhelmed, a little scared, but happy and excited for the most part. As a planner and kind of a control freak, I knew being pregnant for the first time would entail many unexpected and unplanned experiences. But never in a million years would I have thought that most of it would be spent isolated and honestly just scared for my life, my loved ones, and our baby,” she said.
“I know in the grand scheme of things that I am one of the lucky ones,” she continued. “My pregnancy has been relatively smooth, and our baby girl has been doing well. I have a supportive husband and mom under the same roof. But I can’t help but be sad about all the experiences that I’ve lost and will never get back. I wish I could be with my family and friends, or step outside without worry, or even just have routine checkups. At this point I’m just hoping my husband can be with me when I give birth, but even that isn’t looking like a possibility.”
Paulina said that if anything, the current situation has taught her to focus on what truly matters.
“That our baby is healthy and safe, and that she will be loved and cared for,” she went on. “As long as she is okay, then I’m okay.”
It was in March when Paulina announced that she and her husband are expecting their first child.
