First photo of Iya Villania's baby + her funniest pregnancy moments

Iya Villania's baby will be arriving soon and we already have a glimpse of what he looks like! See this cute little chubby-cheeked baby, here.

Super excited mom-to-be Iya Villania, who is in her third trimester of pregnancy, just couldn’t wait to share her baby’s first photo!

The TV host shared Baby A’s 4D ultrasound on her Instagram account on July 8.

“My chubby cheeked boy!,” Iya captioned the photo.

Drew Arellano, Iya’s husband, also took to Instagram to share the cute photo.

“Primo face-palmin’,” Drew said, referring to the fact that his baby had a hand on his face, which covered a good part of his features.

But despite the fact that Baby A’s face is partially obscured by his chubby hands, we can definitely see that he’s already mastered mommy Iya’s pout!

He’s a growing boy ???????????? #BabyA #3rdTrimester

His nose, on the other hand, seems more like Drew’s?

What do you think? Does Baby A look more like his mommy or daddy?

An easy and fun pregnancy

While lots of women experience discomfort and hormonal mood swings during pregnancy, Iya seems to be having a happy one.

The first time mom has maintained her active lifestyle and continues to fulfill her showbiz commitments.

Here’s a look back at Iya’s most fun pregnancy moments:

The announcement

Drew and Iya officially announced the pregnancy on Easter Sunday with this funny Instagram post.

“I found an EGG… and FERTILIZED it! Hahahahaha! Wohoooooooo! Happy Easter it is!,” Drew said.

Keeping fit

“Pregnancy is definitely not the time to try and hit new fitness goals but rather about maintenance! If your body was used to an exercise prior to pregnancy then it will be safe to carry on (adjusting intensity accordingly)…” Iya said in an Instagram post of her working out with BFF Hannah Romawac-Olives of the band Session Road. 

#DidYouKnow that EXERCISE reduces the chance of having a caesarean by 75%!!! ???? This is my gal @hannah_olives and I at #CoreTraining which I’ve been doing for the past 6yrs ???? Pregnancy is definitely not the time to try and hit new fitness goals but rather about maintenance! ???? if your body was used to an exercise prior to pregnancy then it will be safe to carry on (adjusting intensity accordingly) as long as your body says it’s still okay and your doctor approves ???? We were blessed with amazing bodies! It will tell us when we need to slow down (or stop) ☺️ We just have to be sensitive and listen to it ???????????????? Cheers to the active mommas out there! ???????? #ActiveBuntis #FitPreggo #FitPregnancy #GoodVibesLang #BawalAngNegaSaBuntis #Core #NothingNewToBabyA #BabyA #2ndTrimester #HappyLang #EmbraceTheSocks @vamossocks https://www.kidspot.co.nz/article+7352+116+Exercise-reduces-C-sections.htm

Always the fun-loving couple, Drew shared this silly workout video.
