Television actor, Nakuul Mehta and his darling wife, Jankee Parekh Mehta tied the knot on January 28, 2012, after dating for a long period. Afterwards, on February 3, 2021, the couple was blessed with a baby boy, whom they named Sufi Mehta. Ever since they introduced the little boy to the world, the doting parents never miss a chance to share cutesy glimpses from their lives. Now, to mark World Breastfeeding Week, Nakuul's loving wife, Jankee shared some unseen pictures from her post-delivery moments of their son's growing period. In addition, Jankee recalled her exhausting breastfeeding journey after Sufi's birth.

Jankee Parekh talks about her breastfeeding moments and the initial 60days of an exhausting journey

Taking to her IG handle on August 5, 2023, Jankee Parekh shared a collaborative post with the digital media website, SheThePeople. In the video, we can see stunning glimpses from Jankee's pre-delivery time, flaunting her fully-grown baby bump, a few glimpses from inside the hospital room after she had delivered her baby boy to many more cutesy moments of the mother-son duo. In addition, she recalled various anecdotes from her breastfeeding journey in the video's voiceover. She revealed that initially, she used to have an exhausting phase due to a lack of milk supply, fatigue and other hormonal conditions. In her words:

"It's breastfeeding week and looking back at my magical 16-month journey with my son Sufi, I can't help but be overwhelmed with gratitude and pride. I still remember how tough and exhausting the initial 60 days were- low milk supply, fatigue induced meltdowns, clogged ducts, sore nipple.. But with time, patience and belief in the power of my body, it got easier with each passing day."

As the video progressed, Jankee mentioned that her condition gradually improved, and her refrigerator was filling with packets of breast milk, probably which she pumped out for her baby during busy schedules. She said, "From struggling to feed Sufi in the beginning to having my freezer stocked with packets of breast milk, this journey has been about dedication and sacrifice." Jankee also added, "I would breast feed all the time! Be it on flights or in between shoots. I was determined not to give up, and it paid off in the most fulfilling and rewarding way." In the end, Jankee revealed how breastfeeding bonded her with her then-newborn kid, and the mother-son duo formed an unbreakable bond. Thus, encouraging all other would-be mommies, she concluded:

"Breastfeeding gave Sufi and I the time and space to connect so deeply. We locked eyes, exchanged smiles, giggles and so much love. We spent hours feeling the warmth and comfort in each other's arms, just being. All of the struggles have been so worth it for the unbreakable bond I share with my son today. I am just so grateful for this experience, and I want to encourage all moms out there to really believe in themselves and the power of breastfeeding. I know it's not always easy, but trust me, the rewards are immeasurable. So embrace this journey Mummas and remember that you have the power to do anything you want."

When Nakuul Mehta opened up about his parenting style

In an interview with Hindustan Times, Nakuul Mehta talked about his parenting style. The doting father shared that he would never want his son to be within the limits. By the limits Nakuil mentioned what is typically referred to as masculinity, i.e., he would never ask his son not to cry like a girl. Further, in the interview, Nakuul Mehta shared that he and his wife always let their son, Sufi express himself. The actor and his wife, Jankee want Sufi to know that both his papa and mumma can have work days and both can work hard.
