Bollywood
actress Sonam Kapoor has openly shared her postpartum journey after becoming a mother. She married businessman
Anand Ahuja
in May 2018 and welcomed their son, Vaayu Kapoor Ahuja, in August 2022. Sonam has discussed the challenges of motherhood, emphasising the importance of self-care and gradual transformation.
Since her pregnancy, Sonam has stepped away from the big screen. In a recent interview, she revealed that she gained 15 kilos during her first trimester and it took her 16 months to feel like herself again after giving birth. At the age of 36, she required progesterone throughout her pregnancy. Sonam highlighted that losing weight after having a baby is a slow journey and not as straightforward as many believe.
Earlier this year, on January 4, Bollywood fashionista Sonam Kapoor shared many images on her Instagram. The actress looked stunning in an ivory-white lehenga choli with a golden border and matching dupatta. She opted for a minimalistic makeup look and tied her hair in a bun. The Neerja actress candidly shared her experience of becoming a mother and embraced being a mother. She captioned the post, “It’s taken me 16 months to feel like this again. Slowly, steadily, without any crash diets and crazy workouts, just consistent self-care and baby care. I’m not there yet but I’m almost where I want to be. I am still very grateful for my body and how incredible it has been. Being a woman is a wondrous thing.”
