In popular culture, motherhood is presented as a magical, smooth journey of 9 blissful months, but it is not the whole truth. Over the years, many of our favourite celebs have opened up about how tough pregnancy can be, and recently, Sonam Kapoor joined the list. The gorgeous mum-to-be revealed how her life has changed over the last couple of weeks and we are so thankful for her honesty.
In an interview with a leading magazine, Sonam shared, “Nobody tells you how difficult it is going to be, but it is difficult. Your body changes every week, every day, and there are new experiences. Sometimes I can’t sleep because I am running to the loo or I’m like sleeping for 10-12 hours and nobody can wake me up. I missed a zoom call three days ago. I am usually an early riser and it was like at 8:30 and I just could not get out of bed.”
Sonam also revealed that she tried to hide her baby bump at the beginning of her pregnancy by wearing loose clothes. “Now I am more comfortable being more open,” the actress added.
We are so glad that Sonam didn’t shy away from talking about the ordeals a woman faces during pregnancy. It is not all beautiful maternity shoots and sonograms—there are also sleepless nights, drastic physical changes and a host of health issues.
