Grow Your Baby Not Your Weight

By Durga Shakti Nagpal

Book Overview

You're pregnant? That's lovely But perfectly pregnant... isn't that a

wonderful possibility?

For far too long, Indian women have been conditioned to believe that

pregnancy and motherhood mark the end of their independent lives. Being

a mother once meant bidding adieu to your fitness, beauty, career and

individuality. But not anymore.

In her debut memoir, celebrated officer of the Indian Administrative Service

and the mother of two feisty little princesses, Durga Shakti Nagpal provides

you with a detailed blueprint for a perfect pregnancy. She will ensure that

the initiation of your life as a mother will be carried out with the focus

and precision of a drill sergeant, while maintaining the relatability of the

regular Indian mother-to-be.

Durga Shakti will take you through a major life glow-up in those special nine

months of your life, transforming you into the strongest, most accomplished

version of yourself. From pregnancy friendly fitness and skincare, to healthy

eating habits, meditation and skyrocketing your energy levels, she has it

all covered. And not just that, Durga Shakti addresses several life issues

that invariably accompany motherhood, but which are seldom addressed.

Subjects like post-partum blues, pregnancy-related myths and beliefs, the

role of an older child and the family's active involvement during and after

pregnancy are all beautifully dealt with. A highly accomplished bureaucrat

by profession, and a mother and family woman by choice, Durga Shakti

will help you find you the keys to striking a perfect balance between

motherhood and life as a whole.

This is every woman's guide to carving out an extraordinary motherhood

for herself, her child and her family
