Bollywood actress, Sonam Kapoor Ahuja, and her husband, Anand Ahuja, are all set to embrace parenthood with the arrival of their first baby. Check out as the actress talks about her pregnancy phase!
Bollywood actress, Sonam Kapoor Ahuja is hailed as the fashionista of Tinseltown, who time and again, swooned our hearts with her unique sartorial choices. She had got married to the man of her dreams, Anand Ahuja, in May 2018. Sonam and Anand had redefined love for all of us when they had begun their happily-ever-after right after their shaadi. Currently, the much-in-love couple is expecting their first baby together and had delighted us with the announcement of the same, a few days back.
On March 22, 2022, Sonam had taken to her Instagram handle and had announced that she is going to embrace motherhood soon. She had posted a series of pictures from her maternity shoot, wherein the soon-to-be-mom was seen donning a black monokini and had flaunted her baby bump. Along with it, she had written:
"Four hands to raise you the very best we can. Two hearts. That will beat in unison with yours, every step of the way. One family. Who will shower you with love and support. We can’t wait to welcome you. "

In a heart-to-heart conversation with Vogue India, Sonam Kapoor Ahuja revealed that she is focusing on keeping herself healthy rather than trying to diet or exercise to be an ideal size. She also added that she does yoga and weight training to help keep her body happy. Sharing that her pregnancy had pushed her to take the healthy route, Sonam said:
“I ate a dosa for breakfast this morning. I'm not trying to be on some high protein diet to get to fifteen percent body fat. Crash dieting is just not sustainable. If you want to carry another life within you, you have to respect your own.”
Sonam Kapoor Ahuja has conceived at the age of 36, and now, she is four months pregnant. Further in the conversation, Sonam revealed that her pregnancy journey hasn't been easy. The actress added that the first three months were difficult in a way she wasn't prepared for. Revealing that she isn't fazed by her new journey to motherhood, Sonam mentioned:
“It's been tough—nobody tells you how hard it is. Everybody tells you how wonderful it is. The reason we're all here is to change and become better versions of ourselves. So that evolution is something I look forward to.”

Sonam Kapoor Ahuja had experienced a growth spurt in her teenage years, and it had left her feeling self-conscious of her body. In the same conversation, the 36-year-old actress added that it was her progressive mother, Sunita Kapoor, who had helped her come out of that phase. In her words:
“I didn't have the refinement that other young girls had—that posture, that elegance. I was a bit of a mess. Moreover, I come from a family of actors and grew up in the eye of the storm that is Bollywood. So, in our culture you're prepped from an early age to be pretty enough to get married. However, my mom had provided me the much-needed respite from the stringent societal expectations around beauty for women.”
A few days back, a report in ETimes had stated that Sonam Kapoor is more than three months pregnant. A source close to the Kapoor family had shared the details about Sonam's pregnancy and had revealed that even most of her relatives were unaware of her pregnancy as she had refrained from going out in the past few weeks. The source had added:
"In fact, she is four months pregnant. So, she will deliver mostly in August 2022. She wasn't seen around much in recent times and this was precisely the reason. A lot of friends and relatives had got the whiff of it but she did not confirm with most of them, until today."
Well, we cannot wait to be a part of Sonam Kapoor's pregnancy journey!
