… is that it is so simple to explain the delivery process to the kids – and so nice to have them randomly stop by and kiss Mama’s tummy where the doctor stitched it up… to make it better.
🙂 Thanks. Why don’t u suggest a theme for the next month? That shud give u a head start. I never really got down to writing abt my pregnancy n C-section.. maybe I shud do it.
I quite love my moms big belly…its smaller than it used to be and we keep telling her not to lose weight or she’ll soon be skinnier than us :-p
But I particularly remember laying down on it and listening to all the queer sounds coming from within. That was peace…pillow soft bellies are so awesome!
how cute yaar…. i have been saying i want to avoid a C sec as far as possible, now there is atleast one thing that will seem to be a positive out of a c sec 🙂
Awwwwwwwww! The only thing Shyama does with my twice-cut up tummy is bounce on it like she’s trying to get the stitches to come out.

I am super jealous of how slim you are. I’ve been ‘voluptuous’ since i was 20!
Oh, you and one more blogger inspired me to start a mommy blog even though I was determined I wouldn’t. Although now I don’t know what I’ll do with it after yours. *glooooom*
LOL! i am hardly slim. yesterday the husband told me to lose weight on my arms if i want to look good. yes of course i kicked him in the misters. what a silly question to ask 😉
you know i didnt want to be a ‘mommy blogger’. but if you’re a SAHM and you have kids – how can you write a personal blog without referring to the darn brats?
Please send husband to me for class. I’ll make sure he doesn’t go home unless he gets two gold stars. Thin arms, indeed. Absolutely agree about how you can’t help but write about the kids.
maybe i should show the OA this post. after i injured my knee i barely walk and i cant exercise either – so the kilos did pile on and he hasnt let me forget it.
wow. you look so good. Even though I gave natural birth, thats exactly what I told my kids – that the doctor took them out of my tummy and put them next to me. Did not go into the details 🙂
🙂 Now I’m wondering how will I explain the birth process, considering I did not have a c-sec. Because though the child is not even two yet, I can see the question coming. It is only a matter of time.
And that also reminds me that at the ripe age of 27 when I was 3 months pregnant, I realized I had got the most important fact about child birth wrong! (don’t ask) For which I received the award for the dumbest person on earth of all times.
…while C section rates are at an all time high here in the US (32%), you’re making one sound very tempting indeed :p
If I don’t end up with a scar to prove it, may be I can show the kid the stretch marks and say thats where you came from! ROFL…
here. take. i hope the cheque is in the mail
actually i dont emotionally blackmail them. i just gave them the God honest truth. the doc DID cut me and take them out and I show them proof. cant help it if that bleeding heart son of mine still comes by to kiss it 🙂
Now that you mention it,thats a really great idea for the birds and bees talk…..:D nice pic , and sooo sweet of them to do that! Just wondering, does the scar still hurt? Eight months after the C sec, mine does at the times when Artim the explorer plonks a podgy hand on certain areas in the course of his travels!
oh.. and for all the would be mothers who are scared of c sec or look at it negatively… i just want to share… i had an ELECTIVE c sec.. and i am more than just fine… i did that after speaking to MANY gyneacs and i am a c sec veteran coz i had two of them… all the talks of how its going to screw us up is debatable.. i have seen enough vaginal deliveries go bad.. but let me add, that i practice yoga very seriously to be fit in my 50’s. THAT’s when THEY say a csec effects show up right..its all in the mind, seriously!!! and i think i have it covered 🙂 just sharing….
i am truly not 🙂 but i shall take the compliment and smile graciously. that is my resolution this year. speaking of which i am still holding on to the one of not wasting stuff.
i am 5 mnths pregnt with my second one. my elder one is now 3 n half…he keeps on asking me , how will the lil one come out from my tummy…his possible options are mouth n ears…yesterday he added nose also on his list….i culdnt stop laughing…
Wow. never looked at it that way. I had a normal delivery and now am going to have the next one. When my son says that your tummy is going to burst open and doc is going to pull the baby out, I am in a fix. Should I correct him, or let it be?
no no ! completely different
mine is a satin shirt and vest in purple and grey
hers is a little cotton dress in chocolate and pink. the damn colours look the same in the pic for some reason.
That poor child kisses your tummy in adoration and then you try telling me he actually is a Brat?? Some people I tell you! Adorable pic. And you are one Hottie Mc Hottie Mama 🙂
Aww aww awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.. I’m gonna choke with all that mush. The thought of being kissed on tummy, from where they came into being, by two little angels…
Jeez, I wanna come hug the babies.
Ohhhhh.. how adorable!! 🙂
n my!! nice figure.. after 3 years past my C-section i still look like a whale!
dont worry… you’ll lose the weight if you chase two.
have another 😉
and you’re THAT Shruti ? How awesome to have you here. Welcome!
btw – do you have a birth story to share with us?
“THAT” shruti?? :p i hope thats a good thing 😀
of course! I didnt notice the url and I am flattered to find you here. your blog is so creative and i keep dying to participate but never manage.
🙂 Thanks. Why don’t u suggest a theme for the next month? That shud give u a head start. I never really got down to writing abt my pregnancy n C-section.. maybe I shud do it.
me???? to SHRUTI?? are you kidding? can you imagine the pressure ? 🙂
I know the perfect theme for MM…”how to make frogs n tortoises for your garden out of pebbles” 😀
ha ha!! good idea.
The best part is that when you are fifty and the kids loll around with you in bed, they pat that part of the tummy and say “Aur moti, kaisi hai?”
🙂 that jelly belly never does go away, does it?! unless you put everything you own, into it!
I quite love my moms big belly…its smaller than it used to be and we keep telling her not to lose weight or she’ll soon be skinnier than us :-p
But I particularly remember laying down on it and listening to all the queer sounds coming from within. That was peace…pillow soft bellies are so awesome!
absolutely with the above comment, every time i make fun of it, my mom says it was all because of you. it feels nice.
Ruddy cute!
You look smart!!
thank you 🙂
Haha… I never thought of that! 🙂 Now I’m so glad that I had a C-section… and will have another by the end of this year *groan* 😦
oh you poor baby. AND congratulations 🙂
if you blog about it – do add the link to my cesarean story section at the top of the page
how cute yaar…. i have been saying i want to avoid a C sec as far as possible, now there is atleast one thing that will seem to be a positive out of a c sec 🙂
🙂 oh avoid at all costs. this is just a disgruntled mother trying to look for a silver lining
the photo looks so good, somehow ur and Bean’s dress color seems to go together
🙂 you’re right. never did notice that
Seriously, even I thought you’d got ’em both stitched outta the same material!
Aww…. silver lining it is,for sure 🙂
Blessing in a Disguise.what do they both have in their hand?books or something else?
gifts. we’re on our way to a birthday party. i usually make them give a gift each. and yes, its usually books! so you’re right.

What a fantastic figure! kudos!
you guys are good for my ego. i should divorce the man i’m married to. he says i need to lose weight
Wait, when did you marry Adi Chopra? 🙂 🙂 Tell him he needs glasses – old age is catching up.
haha…in my case, it is easier, as the stomach is still in that shape,so they try pressing it back for me…though in vain!
awww cute!!
OOOOOO…Yummy Mummy…:)
maybe i should show the OA this post. after i injured my knee i barely walk and i cant exercise either – so the kilos did pile on and he hasnt let me forget it.
heehee yess…and i am not hiding the truth either!

Oh you look lovely! I have a top with a similar print from Cotton World, but with a round neck.
You look PWETTY, Momma 😀
How cute! And you DON’T need to lose weight.
u made me feel better 😀
…while C section rates are at an all time high here in the US (32%), you’re making one sound very tempting indeed :p
If I don’t end up with a scar to prove it, may be I can show the kid the stretch marks and say thats where you came from! ROFL…
ROFL. oh yeah. you can give kids any answer and they’ll buy it.
Awwwww….Chho Chhweet!
Awww… that is what kids are for… to show random kindness and make us go like a puddle at their feet 😀
The poor Brat and Bean! How you emotionally blackmail them!
Okay. Now give them to me.
here. take. i hope the cheque is in the mail
actually i dont emotionally blackmail them. i just gave them the God honest truth. the doc DID cut me and take them out and I show them proof. cant help it if that bleeding heart son of mine still comes by to kiss it 🙂
I’m kidding! Well, about the emotionally blackmailing part anyway. The Brat’s bleeding heart ways are why I love him so much.
The cheque is on it’s way. Now when can I expect them?
I tell my son I pooped him out one fine day… made him believe its that easy 😉
Aww – what a wonderful moment!
MM
Now that you mention it,thats a really great idea for the birds and bees talk…..:D nice pic , and sooo sweet of them to do that! Just wondering, does the scar still hurt? Eight months after the C sec, mine does at the times when Artim the explorer plonks a podgy hand on certain areas in the course of his travels!
Mine hurt for a year or two Monishikha, but it doesn’t hurt any longer. i hope you heal soon too.
u bet!!
oh.. and for all the would be mothers who are scared of c sec or look at it negatively… i just want to share… i had an ELECTIVE c sec.. and i am more than just fine… i did that after speaking to MANY gyneacs and i am a c sec veteran coz i had two of them… all the talks of how its going to screw us up is debatable.. i have seen enough vaginal deliveries go bad.. but let me add, that i practice yoga very seriously to be fit in my 50’s. THAT’s when THEY say a csec effects show up right..its all in the mind, seriously!!! and i think i have it covered 🙂 just sharing….
i really should do some yoga. sigh.
aww…how sweet..and btw, you truly are the yummiest mummy on the block 🙂
i am truly not 🙂 but i shall take the compliment and smile graciously. that is my resolution this year. speaking of which i am still holding on to the one of not wasting stuff.
i am 5 mnths pregnt with my second one. my elder one is now 3 n half…he keeps on asking me , how will the lil one come out from my tummy…his possible options are mouth n ears…yesterday he added nose also on his list….i culdnt stop laughing…

🙂 I have no idea. you tell me what you decide to do and how it worked out.
OMG… you and bean are wearing the same print… talk about mommy baby bonding.. cuteness…I say…!!!
no no ! completely different
mine is a satin shirt and vest in purple and grey
hers is a little cotton dress in chocolate and pink. the damn colours look the same in the pic for some reason.
but this pic looks too cute…
That poor child kisses your tummy in adoration and then you try telling me he actually is a Brat?? Some people I tell you! Adorable pic. And you are one Hottie Mc Hottie Mama 🙂
you dont talk to me until i get that email you promised
Aww aww awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.. I’m gonna choke with all that mush. The thought of being kissed on tummy, from where they came into being, by two little angels…
Jeez, I wanna come hug the babies.
One stylish momma and stylish babies too :-). I love bean’s dress, so cute with her pigtails 🙂
