Grow Your Baby Not Your Weight

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
