Gauahar Khan is the new mommy in Tinseltown, and she has been loving every moment of her journey. For the unversed, Gauahar and her husband, Zaid Darbar, hopped on to their parenthood journey after they welcomed their first child, Zehaan, on May 10, 2023. From her quick weight loss within 10 days of her delivery to balancing work and life perfectly, Gauahar has left everyone stunned. Surely, Gauahar has been setting major mommy goals for all newbie mommas out there, and there's no denial to it.
In a recent Instagram Live session, Gauahar Khan got candid about her motherhood journey. Talking about her baby boy, Zehaan, the loving mommy shared that she wants to keep her son away from the limelight for now. She added that when Zehaan is grown up and knows how to make a decision for himself, he would make the choice of staying in public or being private. In her words:
"We are just trying to keep Zehaan a little private. I don't want him to be out there. It's really going to be his choice once he is grown up and knows how to make a decision for himself. That's why we are keeping him away. I don't know about the future. I am showing you his back, but I hope you understand and respect our decision."

Gauahar Khan also revealed how she is balancing work and mommy life at the same time. Reflecting on the same, she shared that she is not very sleepless at night, despite waking every few hours to feed Zehaan. She also added that though she has a helping hand to take care of her baby, she prefers to keep Zehaan with her at night. Stating that she has already started working on projects, Gauahar added:
"I am not very sleepless. I do wake up every few hours to feed him. I am awake when he is awake. I don't give the baby to help at night. I do stay awake through the night. Love it, and I won't change anything about it. I take care of him and have help as well. So I am able to balance. I have to get back to work. I have already started working. I just need to find a balance. That's about it."
Further in the conversation, Gauahar Khan revealed that she had a C-section delivery when she gave birth to her first baby, Zehaan. However, she mentioned that it was not her choice, but her medical condition required a C-section instead of a normal delivery. The new mommy added:
"I had a C-section, I didn't have a normal delivery. But according to me a C-section is also a normal delivery. I don't know why the term normal is introduced in pregnancy. I feel normal is what is medically safe for you. Your medical condition requires C-section. I didn't opt for it because I didn't want to push. I don't think 99 percent of women do that. And even if you choose C-sec, it's fine. I don't think it's an easier delivery option at all. It takes a bigger toll on your body."

Gauahar also got candid about her post-pregnancy weight loss and revealed that she is trying hard to shed those extra kilos. Revealing that she still has 6 to 7 kgs to shed, the new mommy stated that she doesn't want to be hard on herself. Gauahar advised new moms to opt for light workouts when their body permits them and then proceed to yoga. She was heard saying:
"It's not easy. I am trying very hard. My initial weight was drained because I took care of my baby completely. This helped in reducing weight. You have to work out after it's permissible. When you feel better after 2 to 3 months, you can start a light workout. You can start with yoga. I have started it now. I have another 6 to 7 kgs to go. Inshallah, I will be back in my original shape. I am in no hurry. I don't want to be hard on myself. I think I have done well for myself. I am happy that in the next few months, I can achieve what I want. So just go slow, and enjoy the process of being a mother."

When Gauahar Khan was asked who her baby boy, Zehaan takes after, she shared that he is a beautiful blend of Zaid and her. Gauahar also revealed the beautiful meaning behind Zehaan's name and shared that it means prosperity, abundance and success in Arabic. She added that it was she who chose the name for her baby and said:
"It's one of the most beautiful meanings I wanted for my child. Zehaan is a unique name. I had never heard of it before. Now a lot of people will keep this name. I will be happy about it. It was my research, and Zaid loved the name. We had a few options, and this one was the best of all. We had picked out names for both genders."
