secret santa story

When I entered the large building my face was stone cold. I tried to stay still but I kept biting my lip till I tasted blood. I was so nervous I could barely talk. I’ve been shifting really often and I’ve been moving allot. When I entered the sunny room shyness crawled up my throat. I was standing in front of the whole class. There were 19 students with a question mark on their face. Well at least what I had thought hadn’t happened. I thought everyone was going to whisper to each other and laugh at me. But here came the bad part. The teacher asked to introduce myself. Everyone looked at me with such wide eyes. I started to struggle uncomfortably. Then I said hello my name is Sparsh Jain in a dim voice. I have come from Dubai I said in another dim voice. Then the teacher asked me to sit on one of the desks in front of the white board. There were only 2 people in my group. I whispered to them psssssssssss hey what’s the teacher’s name. Then the tall guy (that’s you Trevor) replied her na...

I wrote this post to encourage a mom when my daughter was 3.5 months. Today she is nearing 2 years and I am so proud to breastfeed her till now even after having my share of all the taunts around. I totally understand for those just have a medical condition of not able to feed the baby but if everything is just normal with you then please don't choose formula or for that matter animal milk to your baby please at least till 1 year.  I have a 3.5 month old little daughter too.

People say and will keep saying to give formula to the babies, everyone wants those chubby cheeks baby like ads, ask them what kind of baby they had, somehow...

Hello, What do you do if you have leftover rice or khichdi, I always love experimenting with flavours and textures in kitchen, so one day when we had ample of khichdi left, I didn't feel like giving it away or throw..

Traveling with infant in air

As a young mom, I know how it is to feel and get information on every single thing possible. My little baby was 6 weeks old when I first took her to travel with us from Jaipur to Bangalore in flight. I was hell nervous, curious about how it will go. I tried to gather as much information as I could from doctors, from fellow experienced mom's, from flight attendants to I guess every other article on internet. Then it clicked me, that none of them helped with complete knowledge, everyone missed something or the other, so here I am writing all information I gathered before I traveled with my baby girl. Things to carry: # pacifier https://amzn.to/2K3sE4a (if your baby is less than 6 months) https://amzn.to/34dszCf (if your baby is older than 6 months) # cotton balls # if you pump and give bottle to baby then pump before you board or feed before boarding.

Be strong new mamas

As far as I was concern till the last day of my pregnancy and after the journey of feeding started I was determined that I have to have to only breastfeed my baby. No formula or cow milk or any other source till my Dr tells me. Since I had a C-section it was built in my mind by everyone that I will have trouble in milk supply, but that's not the case, your milk supply is totally dependent on your baby's demand, the more the baby suckles, the body starts to produce milk accordingly. In hospital yes I gave up and made my baby have that formula milk. Dr advised not to use bottles and use normal spoon to feed. Eventually my baby started to latch well and I constantly only fed my baby, in course of 45 days, the box which I had from hospital was used once in 2-3 days and it was finished and then I decided I will not buy only the formula. I will be sufficient for my baby. At times, when I was in washroom, people at home started to give formula to her and then that was the day I threw ...

Pregnancy final countdown phase

When the countdown has started, and I think about this whole journey it makes me over whelmed to just think about all the firsts, first time we got to know about that we're pregnant, first time we saw baby on the screen, first time when I felt the first kick, first time when we both were in different cities and not sharing the entire day. With growing belly, our little peach is growing too, though I can't wait to hold you and adore in my arms, I will also miss this entire journey of pampering, love, attention, care I have received from everyone around.. in this nesting stage, I am having all the anxiety to organise everything that I need to for our coming little bundle of joy but waiting patiently for you to come when it's the right time. #pregnant #36weekspregnant
