So soon after her second baby, Kareena Kapoor Khan introduces us to her third.
The actress has launched her debut book, Kareena Kapoor Khan’s Pregnancy Bible: The Ultimate Manual For Moms-To-Be. She did so in the presence of long-time friend, Karan Johar, in an Instagram live. The two touched up on a lot that is more deeply addressed in the book.
At the very beginning of the session, she reveals one condition for her to be writing about this part of her life was room for complete and blatant honesty. During her live interaction with KJo, the actress revealed many unknown facts about her pregnancies and many more are apparently revealed in the book.
One such topic was that of self-image along with sexual drive.

“When you are pregnant, people don’t realise the kind of moods, emotions, feelings, what you actually feel about yourself. That’s so important. Some days, I would feel super amazing and sexy and feel ‘oh my God, I am looking so hot with this belly’ and I would feel amazing, and I would tell Saif that or he would say, ‘You are looking beautiful,” she said in the live.
“But there were times post six-seven months where I felt like… Of course, I was exhausted and I couldn’t get myself to get up sometimes in the morning. But sometimes, it’s just a feeling of repulsion. You are just in a mental state when you don’t know what to think. It’s so important to have a supportive man and most men should not put pressure on their wives to a) look beautiful while they are pregnant and b) feel they are any less. That pressure shouldn’t be there or like ‘this is it, our regular sex life has to be super-active’,” she added.
Kareena said that during pregnancy, a woman’s feelings should take precedence over everything else. “It has to be according to what the woman feels and what she is feeling at that minute. If your husband doesn’t understand that, then how can he be the father of your child? He has to love you in every form. It’s a topic that I have written about in the book because most women feel scared to talk about it,” she said.
Kapoor Khan’s book is now available to order.
The actress has two children, 4-year-old Taimur Ali Khan Pataudi and 5-month-old Jeh Ali Khan, who, if reports are correct, may also be named Jehangir.
