The last pre-baby moments are extremely special for an expecting couple as before they get involved in the madness of taking care of a baby, it is also the last few days for them to enjoy their ‘me’ and ‘us’ time. With already a big to-do list ready before the baby arrives, parents-to-be must also find quality time to spend with each other. Just a few hours/days are left before a stork blesses Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli with baby Virushka and before the much-awaited moment comes, the to-be parents, especially the mommy-to-be is enjoying the last phase of her pregnancy. Anushka is treating her fans with glimpses of the last moments of her pregnancy and how she is making the most of it.

It was in August when Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli had announced that in January 2021, they will be three and the couple had described the moment when they came to know about the pregnancy to be an ‘over the moon’ feeling. A few hours ago, Anushka had posted a Boomerang on her IG stories, giving a glimpse of her workout session ahead of her due date. In the Boomerang, Anushka could be seen jogging on the treadmill with a smile on her face, wearing black-coloured tights and a white t-shirt. Anushka is not only an inspiration for expecting mothers for her maternity fashion sense but also for being the fitness enthusiast during the pregnancy.
During the lockdown, Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli had delighted their fans with glimpses of their quarantine time with their pooch, Dude. Ahead of her due date too, Anushka gave a glimpse of the same on her Instagram handle, in which she and Dude became the ‘serial chillers’ of the house. Pregnant Anushka rested on the floor with her pet sleeping next to her and she lovingly caressed Dude with her hand on its head. Anushka captioned the picture as “Serial chillers in the house.”
Though pregnancy is a phase for expecting women to sit back and enjoy some (a lot) guilt-free norms, it is also a time to stay fit. Speaking on the importance of yoga for expecting mothers, Anushka Sharma had posted a picture of herself, doing the headstand with the help of her ‘very able husband’, Virat Kohli. Anushka had captioned the post as “This exercise is ‘hands-down’ (and legs up) the most difficult one #throwback P.S. – As yoga is a big part of my life, my doctor recommended that I can do all such asanas that I was doing before I was pregnant barring twists & extreme forward bends, but of course with the appropriate and required support. For the Shirshasana, which I have been doing for many years, I ensured that I used the wall for support and also my very able husband supporting me balance, to be extra safe. This was also done under the supervision of my yoga teacher @eefa_shrof who was virtually with me through this session. I'm so glad I could continue my practice through my pregnancy.” (Also Read: Anushka Sharma Reveals She Won't Engage Her Child On Social Media As They Don't Want To Raise Brats)

Anushka Sharma had posed for Vogue’s cover, the pictures of which were released on December 30, 2020, and just like all of us, her hubby, Virat Kohli was left in awe of his ‘beautiful’ wife. When Anushka had posted a picture, flaunting her baby bump and pregnancy glow, Virat had dropped a lovely comment for his wife, “Beautiful”. Anushka had captioned her post as “Capturing this for myself, for life!” For the interview with the Vogue, Anushka had spoken about directing a lot of her energy in preparing the animal-themed nursery and setting up the home for the baby. A self-confessed planner, Anushka had said, “I just want to be prepared. Everything is slower because of the times we are living in and I don’t like to rush things. This time in my life, even more so. I want the nursery to be very calm. It’s the place where you spend the most amount of time, where you are bonding with your baby, so it has to be peaceful.”
Much like Anushka Sharma’s approach to life and parenthood, the theme of the nursery is one that is deeply thoughtful, reflecting important facets of her and Virat Kohli’s world. Anushka had said, “I don’t believe that boys have to wear blue and girls pink. The nursery has all colours. Both Virat and I love animals and we want our baby to have that bond too. They are a big part of our lives and we really believe they can teach kindness and compassion to children.” (Also Read: Pregger, Anushka Sharma Spotted With Hubby, Virat Kohli At Their New Apartment In Juhu [Pictures])
