Kajal also talked about how her life changed after her son entered the world. The star noted that it has not been easy, and she has spent three sleepless nights since birth. She described the complex and beautiful aspects of postpartum in her post. "It's not been easy. 3 sleepless nights that bleed into early mornings, learning to latch and burp, squishy bellies and stretched skin, frozen pads, breast pumps, uncertainty, constant worry if you're doing it all right, all topped with dozes of anxiety," she wrote.
Kajal ended her note by mentioning the magical things about postpartum. "But it's also moments like these - sweet cuddles in the wee hours of the morning, gazing into each other's eyes with a look of confident recognition, adorable little kisses, the quiet moments when it's just the two of us, growing, learning, discovering each other and navigating this wonderful journey together. In reality, postpartum isn't glamorous but it sure can be beautiful," the star noted.
Meanwhile, Kajal Aggarwal tied the knot with Gautam Kitchlu in Mumbai in October 2020. The couple confirmed the news of their pregnancy in January this year. On the work front, Kajal has Telugu film Archarya alongside Chiranjeevi, Ram Charan and Pooja Hegde. The action drama will release on April 29.
