Kareena Kapoor Khan is one of the hottest mommies in the Bollywood industry. The diva has nurtured two babies and has also written a book on her experiences during pregnancy. While launching her debut book with Karan Johar in an Instagram live session recently, the yummy-mummy of Taimur Ali Khan Jeh Ali Khan talked at length about the mood swings and physiological changes a woman goes through during this difficult time.
Now we have come across one of the interesting stories that Kareena has shared in her book. In the book, Kareena has revealed that she had no milk after Taimur Ali Khan’s birth. She, in her book, has quoted, “Taimur was an abrupt Caesarean. I literally had no milk for over 14 days. I was completely dry.” She added, “My mom and my nurse would be hovering by my side, pressing at my boobs and wondering why it wasn’t happening.”
However, things were different during the birth of her second child, Jeh. The top Bollywood actress has thrown light on the same in her book and has briefed us about how she felt accomplished after nursing her second child. She has written, “(During Jeh’s birth), I had a much better flow and did manage to nurse him. I’ll admit it – breastfeeding him (and doing it exclusively for a few weeks) felt like an achievement!”
But on the same note, Kareena has also admitted that her second pregnancy was way more difficult than the first one. She revealed that while her first pregnancy went smoothly, her second was more ‘difficult’.Talking about the same, at the launch event previously, Kareena said, “This pregnancy was extremely difficult compared to Taimur’s, which was a breeze. I had loved it, enjoyed it and that gave me the courage to do it again. But this was different. I had bouts where I would sit down and think, ‘I don’t think I can do this, don’t think anything is going to be okay,’” she said.
Kareena has also made a note on how Covid-19 impacted her mental health and that she was afraid of stepping outdoors during her final trimester of the second pregnancy.
Kareena Kapoor Khan and her husband have welcomed their second child earlier this year. Kareena’s book titled Kareena Kapoor Khan’s Pregnancy Bible, which she considers as her ‘third baby’ has been in the headlines since it was announced by the actress. And as promised, the self-help book has been written in a candid way. Kareena has disclosed many unknown facts about her pregnancies and has given a detailed write-up of her nurturing times.
During the launch of her book, Kareena also opened up on how at times she used to feel repulsive during her pregnancy and how she lost her sex drive at that time. In the same conversation, Bebo praised husband Saif Ali Khan for being supportive of her. She revealed that he always made her feel special.
On the work front, Kareena will next be seen in Laal Singh Chaddha opposite Aamir Khan, the Hindi remake of Hollywood hit Forrest Gump. Earlier this week, she has also announced a film that she will be co-producing with Ekta Kapoor. Kareena was last seen in the 2020 film Angrezi Medium, alongside late actor Irrfan Khan.
