In her book, Kareena Kapoor Khan mentioned how she wanted to have a normal delivery when she was pregnant with her first baby, Taimur. However, the circumstances had compelled her to have a C-section. Sharing that the cord was around Taimur’s neck, Kareena wrote, "It was my last scan and I was a week away from delivery. Taimur was a big baby, and it turned out that the cord was around his neck. The sonologist called my Ob-gyn and said they couldn’t take a chance. I was so scared and really worried about my baby. I had really wanted to have a normal delivery.”
Kareena further shared that her doctors explained how her baby’s life would be at risk during the normal delivery. Recalling the nerve-wracking 48 hours, Kareena added, “But my doctor sat me down and explained to me that during labour, I would be pushing, the baby would be pulling, the cord was precarious. Dr. Feroze, Saif, and I then took a joint decision. A nerve-wracking 48 hours later, I had Taimur via a C-Section, I remember being wheeled in, being soothed by the nurse, hearing my anaesthesiologist’s comforting words. Then everything was a blur.”
