Joyce Pring prepares to go on maternity leave
Joyce Pring is one excited momma-to-be as she gets ready for the arrival of her first child.
On Instagram, Thursday, Joyce said that she is starting the "grueling process" of preparing for her maternity leave.
According to Joyce, she has to prepare 60 episodes of the shows she's hosting.
"I've been shooting, recording, going live, and doing everything else so I can hopefully take 12 weeks off (or at least 12 weeks with a much lighter schedule)," she said.
While she's trying her best to fit every task into schedule, Joyce said that she is not trying to "glorify" working a lot during pregnancy.
"I'm grateful to God that I've been having a relatively easy pregnancy that has allowed me to work and workout and be fully present—even on tough days," she said. "But I know it's not the same for all women."
"We all go through our journeys on different paths, varying intensities, and diverse timelines," she added. "It really doesn't help to compare ourselves to others—we must focus on our own pilgrimage, focus on the path ahead, and bask in the joys and challenges of the present."
Despite her busy schedule, Joyce and her husband Juancho Triviño still find time for rest and relaxation, such as spending quality time outdoors before they officially become parents.
Joyce is currently in her third trimester. She and Juancho announced the pregnancy on their first wedding anniversary in February.
