Motherhood is a choice you make, to put someone else’s need and happiness ahead of you, to teach hard lessons, and to do the right thing even when you don’t know the right thing. Television actress, Chhavi Mittal, who is all set to give birth to her little baby, is experiencing it all.

The mommy-to-be Chhavi has made sure to document her little one’s every move and has blogged her entire journey of being a mother. She has raised issues that no one talks about, broke old societal notions surrounding pregnancy and has openly discussed things that no one knew about. She is an inspiration for many, who fear what the world will think!
While Chhavi has already step unto the 10th month of her pregnancy, she informed her fans that there is still no sign of her baby leaving her body. Today (May 12, 2019), on the occasion of Mother’s Day, she wrote a long note of embracing the journey six-year back. Her note can be read as, “HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all gorgeous mothers! 6 years ago today this little angel gave me the honour of being a mother. And today she made a surprise card for me which she drew herself. I'm absolutely overwhelmed today, because there's this little child to whom I mean the world, and who takes care of me in her own cute ways... Throwing me a baby shower, hugging me as tight as she can, wiping my tears when I'm sad, cracking kiddy jokes to make me laugh.” (Also Read: Kareena Kapoor Khan Reveals First Question She Asked Doctor When Taimur Ali Khan Was Born)
Her post further states how her second baby is refusing to leave her body, “And there's this other child who refuses to leave my body. I was really looking forward to being a mother of 2 before this day arrives. I know all of you have been waiting for the good news. But more than all you guys, my patience is wearing thin, because there's still no sign of labour. And if labour doesn't knock on my door today, we might have to artificially induce it, which breaks my heart because on one hand the baby's at risk due to being a post-term birth, and on the other hand, the baby's at risk due to the drugs being pumped in my body for an induction. What does a mother choose?”
Chhavi further wrote, “I've been so natural throughout that I didn't even allow sunscreen to enter my blood stream, and now this. I'm mustering up all that I have within me to induce labour naturally to ensure an absolutely healthy baby in my arms. Long walks, squats, duck walks, ghee, pressure point massages, meditation, spicy food and what not. I freshly determine to make this birth the kind of birth that I have visualised. Keep those prayers coming #waitingforlabour.”

In an interview with The Times of India, Chhavi had talked about embracing motherhood for the second time, and had shared, “One can never be too prepared. No two pregnancies and babies are the same. During my first pregnancy, I had the liberty to quit my show and rest it out. However, this time around, I already have too much on my plate — my elder daughter and business. So, I haven’t got the time to sit back and enjoy this phase.” (Don't Miss: Erica Fernandes And Parth Samthaan's Vacation Pics Prove They're Made For Each Other)
