First time parents find themselves short of time, space,
sleep and sex. But there is one thing they won’t find themselves short of –
advice. From the aaya in the hospital, to the stranger in the road, to your
over-paid maid; everyone will have at-least one advice for you. Luckily you can
easily ignore their advice. It is the advice from your close friends and
families that you will find hard to ignore. And you know what is worse? Two
mothers together, with totally opposite advices. Yes you are trapped, you have
reached the limit of your temper and you are about to burst. Your ego might
make you want to shout, ‘It is our child, you have had your share of parenting,
let us have ours’. That's exactly how we felt.

After nine months baby is finally here. The battle is
won, but the war has just begun. When we first saw her during USG she looked so
cute and we wondered when we are going to hold her. Now she is here, and she
looks prettier, but she looks fragile too. There was no ‘handle with care’ or ‘this
side up’ sign! I was afraid to hold her the first time. But I soon got
better of my fear and there she was, in my arms. My first lesson – babies don’t
break easily.
