Gauahar Khan recently announced her second pregnancy, and now the actress and host is back with her YouTube channel. Gauahar shared that she created this platform to talk about motherhood, her pregnancy journey and more. She even got candid about her pregnancy with Zehaan and make a heartfelt revelation about her miscarriage.
We have kept Zehaan protected and kept him away from public life. We had thought to create a page for him but then we experienced something and decided to keep Zehaan's privacy intact. Zaid and I decided to keep Zehaan away from the public eye and we stopped posting many pictures with him on our social media handles.
During my first pregnancy, I was working till the eighth month and I wanted to create this space for a very long time. Now, that I am in the fifth month of my second pregnancy, I chose to create this space where I can talk about my pregnancy journey and answer all the questions of fans regarding this.
The first time that I got pregnant, Zehaan was like a birthday gift to me as it was an August conception. And my second pregnancy will be a New Year gift. So, I was very excited during my first pregnancy. I was curious to know about my newborn, and I didn't want to determine the baby's gender. It is illegal in India so one shouldn't.
In the first few months, I felt it was a girl but then in the second month onwards, I felt that I was having a boy. Zaid was very sure, and then we were blessed with a boy. Had it been a daughter, we would have taken more precautions regarding her future and all. Even for our son, we had our plans.
By the fourth month, I had to announce my pregnancy though till the fourth month, nobody came to know about it and I was working. But it is said that during the second pregnancy, it shows sooner and I have realised that my stomach has grown much faster though I am in my fifth month.
I don't know why it is such a big topic that everyone wants to know about C-sections or normal delivery. My first pregnancy was a C-section and I feel it shouldn't be such a big topic. A celebrity recently said C-section is an easier option, but I would like to say that 'how could you say that', there is so much misinformation. For a male celeb to say that, who has no clue about conception, carrying a child and going through the C-section. How painful it is, you have no clue. To all the women out there, whether you had a normal or c-section delivery. I know what it feels like and what you all went through.
I thank the almighty for the blessing that I had a natural conception. And hats off to all the women who go through so much to embrace motherhood. I am really grateful for the natural conception. I want to share that I did have a miscarriage before Zehaan and I can't express that feeling, it's impossible to describe in any words.
I did lose a pregnancy before Zehaan, I lost the baby after almost 9 weeks. That loss was extremely difficult for me. I shall tell you all about it soon. With Zehaan, I was constantly working for 8 months. I had hosted the biggest Football Launch. Zehaan has been extremely supportive. With my second one, I was shooting Fauji 2's climax in my third month.
During both my pregnancies I was shooting action shows, the one I shot with Zehaan is yet to release and with the second one, I was shooting for Fauji 2. So both my babies are action babies and I am really blessed to have them.
