Pregnancy can be a challenging experience both for the body and the mind. While those nine months are undoubtedly special and meant to be cherished, careful attention must also be paid to the overall wellbeing of the mother. Durga Shakti Nagpal’s debut memoir focuses on these difficulties accompanying pregnancy, and offers practical tips to cope with them.
Published by Rupa Publications, Grow your Baby, Not your Weight: An Extraordinary memoir of Pregnancy, Birthing and Everything Between, covers all that a new mother needs to know in order to lead a well-balanced and healthy life during those nine months. Be it fitness routines specifically tailored to meet the body’s needs at that stage, or specific diets that keep the body nourished, Durga Shakti Nagpal has laid out an easy-to-follow guide that can be seamlessly integrated into the daily routine of an expectant mother. Apart from addressing physical needs, the author also discusses how to deal with some of the emotional stress that one might experience during this time. Be it the nausea and fatigue of the first few months of pregnancy, or the postpartum depression that might follow after the birth of the baby, Nagpal lays down a roadmap for achieving what she calls a ‘perfect pregnancy’.
With stellar reviews from Hema Malini, Akshay Kumar, Shashi Tharoor and many others, this book is a reliable source of information and a must-have for all expectant mothers.
