A letter to my unmarried self.

Hello Mimansa, It's Feb 2022 on this side and I am writing to you in 2017, I just want to let you know a few things before you plan your wedding with that cute guy you are dating these days. I know you are pretty serious about him and he also wants to take the relationship to another level but before you freeze the dates, Please read below. Postpone marriage: Just because the weddings are very exciting, Don't simply jump into this commitment. Build yourself first. Design the life of your choice. Explore your potential to the fullest. Establish yourself to an extent that later on, you don't have to alter your choices as per circumstances. Till you don't find yourself at this stage postpone the big day. Believe me, you will thank me. Understand marriages generally are not equal: In Indian households, a woman's role is prominent. Women do chores as their 'duty' and men seldom contribute to chores as 'help'. In no time will your career become secondary,

How Motherhood changed me as a person

She had absolutely no support with chores or finances to raise a baby but she did everything on her own. Certainly I admired her the most and wondered whether motherhood can change people. In short there was this hidden calling in me to embark the journey of motherhood, to experience the nature's great plan (reproduction). On 5th July 2021, We were blessed with a baby boy and since then life has changed in all sorts o

Three baby products I swear by

 Hello Mommies,  let me take this opportunity to share with you three baby products I can't do without. Also I must tell you using these products make my life so easy. Hoping that this will help you also.  1. Luvlap breast milk pump : I went back to work when my baby was five and half months old. Ladies at my office keep asking me about how his feeds are managed in my absence. I tell them that I use a manual pump which really surprises them.
