Baby news: Davao City mayor, Sara Duterte-Carpio, pregnant

About the blogger

First of all... Hello from Davao!

I have been living for a few years in Davao and enjoy it very much. The idea of my own news blog started with my parents who used to ask me very often 'What is happening now in Davao?' over the phone. So, I want to dedicate this news blog to all my folks abroad and all the other readers who appreciate updated news about Davao's culture, entertainment, their vivid economic growth, their business sector, their local politics, their places to eat and go to and updates on education and health issues concerning us, the Dabawenyos.

P.S.: I love having you around here! Feel free to leave comments and ideas.

Happy news broke last Wednesday (September 5), Davao City mayor, Sara Duterte-Carpio confirmed that she is an expecting mother, and in her eight weeks.

"Too early to announce but daghan na nakahibalo na naga-confirm (It’s too early to announce but many people who know are already confirming the news)," the mayor said to Sun.Star Davao.

She shared that she does not have any gender preference for her baby nor had she thought of a baby name at this early. She hopes that the baby will be a baby of good health. "Murag wait and see pa gyud mi (It's a wait and see for us). It's too early to be happy," the mayor said.

Congratulations from all Dabaoenos, mayor Sara!
