MANILA, Philippines – Nonito Donaire Jr calls it “the scariest day of my life.”
No, he isn’t referring to one of his 37 pro fights, in which he has won world titles in 4 divisions. He’s referring to the birth of his second son, Jarel Logan, who was born on Friday morning, April 17 Manila time.
The birth was anything but routine. Donaire’s wife Rachel had to miss her husband’s second round knockout of William Prado at Araneta Coliseum in Quezon City, Philippines on March 28 due to a condition called placenta previa, which is a condition where the placenta blocks the birth canal.
In a post on his Facebook page, Donaire says his wife lost consciousness after she started hemorrhaging. She lost 2.2 liters of blood in the ordeal, but both the wife and child are now doing well.
Jarel Logan, who Donaire says he is naming after X-Men character Wolverine, was measured at 18 inches, 5 pounds and 4 ounces and is eating and breathing on his own already.
This was the scariest day of my life. I felt like my entire world was going to be taken from me n was almost in tears…

This is their second son whom they’ve named Jarel, which stands for Jun and Rachel’s everlast love.
Donaire will have some time to spend with his growing family before returning to the ring, as he is scheduled to face an opponent to be named on July 18 in Macau, China. – Rappler.com
