pregnancy It is a very beautiful and exciting journey. It not only brings changes in the body but also completely changes the person’s thinking, relationships and outlook on life as a whole. From the initial joy of the baby’s arrival to the deep emotional bond formed with the baby in the womb, all these experiences further strengthen the new identity of becoming a parent.
Recently, in an interview given to Vogue India magazine, Bollywood actress Kiara Advani spoke openly about the joys of becoming a mother. She enjoyed living the good and bad moments of pregnancy with her husband Sidharth Malhotra. In the interview, Kiara told that she kept shooting the film for seven months during her pregnancy. Only the director and producer of his film knew this secret.
used to talk quietly
While working in the film ‘War 2’, when emotionally heavy scenes had to be shot, Kiara used to silently go to the small bathroom of her vanity van. There she would caress her stomach and whisper to her unborn child, ‘Mummy is just acting, is everything okay? This is not real. Kiara told that this had become a kind of relaxing ritual for her. This created a good balance between the emotional depth of his role and peace of mind for the child. Kiara also thanked a lot for the strong support system present in her life.
special relationship between mother and child
According to Dr. Rimpa Sarkar, clinical psychologist and founder of Sentier Wellness, the bond between mother and child often begins long before the child is born, according to the Indian Express. Many women start getting emotionally attached to their child as soon as they find out about their pregnancy. On the basis of research in parental psychology, Dr. Sarkar says that the emotional state of the mother affects her nervous system, and this also affects the child in the womb. When the mother feels calm, safe and emotionally stable, these good signals reach the baby as well.
talk to unborn baby
As Kiara told in the interview, talking to your unborn baby during pregnancy can be a very strong and comforting way. Dr. Sarkar says, ‘In times of stress or emotional turmoil, this kind of self-calming helps in controlling the mother’s nervous system. This creates feelings of emotional security. It works like the practice of mindfulness or positive thinking, which takes the mind from excessive stress to stability. She also said that it proves helpful for many women at times when they are feeling stressed or having mood swings.
Express your feelings openly
People often think of suppressing emotions during pregnancy as a way to ‘be strong’, but the truth is that being emotionally aware is a much healthier approach. Dr. Sarkar explains that accepting emotions instead of pushing them away helps in becoming emotionally balanced and reduces internal stress. Dr. Sarkar says, ‘When mothers allow themselves emotional softness and self-compassion during pregnancy, it not only strengthens their mental health, but also increases security and a deep bond with the baby, which lasts long after birth.’ Some easy suggestions have been given to strengthen the bond between mother and child.
- The baby starts hearing by the 18th week of pregnancy and starts recognizing sounds by 22-24 weeks. The mother should start talking to her unborn child. The child will respond by increasing his movements. It is very important for every pregnant woman to talk to her baby from the 20th week or about five months.
- Whenever you are resting, gently rotate your palm on your stomach. This gives good energy to the child. The baby feels relaxed and responds with movement.
- Singing has a very good effect on the child. It is a simple and effective way of creating a bond between mother and child.
- If there is already an elder child, then tell him about the coming brother or sister. Let the elder child feel the movements of the baby.
- All pregnant women are advised to do yoga, pranayam and light exercise. This increases blood circulation in the uterus, provides rest to the child and improves its development. Activities like walking and swimming are also beneficial for the child.
- This journey of pregnancy not only brings a new life but also creates a new strength and understanding in the mother.
