Ninong Ry marks first month of youngest child: ‘Para sa aming Rainbow Baby na si Rafa’

Social media personality Ninong Ry, whose real name is Ryan Morales Reyes, marked the first month of their youngest child, Rafa. In a Facebook post, the food content creator revealed that their youngest is a rainbow baby following the two miscarriages that his partner, Belle, had previously. 

Ninong Ry, Belle, and Rafa had a photoshoot to mark the special occasion of their youngest child. 

The food content creator recalled how the miscarriages were painful for them but believed that there’s a plan that was set out for them by their faith. Eventually, Rafa came into the picture and it was also discovered that Belle had Antiphospholipid syndrome (APAS). 

“Before ipanganak si Rafa, nakunan kami ng dalawang beses. Masakit, syempre. Tinanggap na lang namin kasi baka may plano si Lord para samin. Di nag tagal, nakabuo ulit kami,” he said.

According to Cleveland Clinic, APAS is a condition which makes the body much more likely than usual to form blood clots. These blood clots can make it more likely for women to experience miscarriages and pregnancy complications as well. 

Ninong Ry then shared how strong his partner was for enduring everything just to make sure their youngest child will be delivered as safely as possible.  

“Dun lang namin nalaman na may APAS pala si Mommy. Siyempre, ayaw na namin maulit yun. Ginawa namin lahat. Sandamakmak na gamot, araw araw na injection. Pero ok lang. Sa totoo lang, ang lahat ng hirap eh asawa ko ang tumangke. Sobrang lakas nya. Ayun, di nag tagal, pinanganak na si Rafa. Healthy at higit sa lahat, kamukha ko hehe,” he added.

“Para sa aming Rainbow Baby na si Rafa, happy first month,” he ended.

Fans of the content creator celebrated with him in the comment section of his post. Other netizens recalled their personal experience as well with APAS and how they were able to overcome the challenge.
