Actor Kareena Kapoor Khan recently shared her pregnancy journey after the birth of sons Taimur and Jeh Ali Khan in her new book 'Kareena Kapoor's Pregnancy Bible'. The book includes anecdotes, advice and how her family and friends were her allies throughout her pregnancies.
Introduction of the book, written by Kareena has been released. It talks about her trying to balance her work and motherhood. She also thanks all the help she gets from her own mother Babita, and her domestic staff. Bebo wrote about the role of her mother-in-law yesteryear actress Sharmila Tagore, and detailed her role in pushing her back to work as soon as she can.
In the excerpt, Kareena has written, “My mother-in-law was also among the first to tell me that I had to keep working. Her advice was to do whatever I wanted but with confidence. She did some great work in the movies after her marriage and kids and was a real inspiration. My mother is also a strong role model for me, and she and my father both told me I must keep at it. So I thought what the heck! I plunged headlong into not one but two pregnancies and I now have these two tots in my life who make every day feel a little crazy, a little special, a little exhausting, and a little rewarding.”
She also wrote about how she has been successfully managing her work-life balance. She wrote, “And so here I am – writing these words, working, being a mommy, being active, being real. You know, my life often feels like the tree pose – where you're balancing on one leg. I think women do that beautifully.”
Bebo credited husband and actor Saif Ali Khan for being a strong support in her life. She shares, “But Saif told me I could do it all. He and I have worked hard to build a strong foundation for our relationship, and I truly believe my kids will always have that to stand on. And, hopefully, Jeh will be as confident as Taimur, because of his parents.”
