Yes my friends and readers of this blog, you heard it right, my prince arrived this January 18th at 4. 27 PM. He made us proud parents once again. His sister Nidhi is happy, but at the same time curious that someone is there to take attention of mama.
My journey to motherhood is not easy, I always dream about having babies and thought just like our Indian movie, get married and next month you will have vomiting or dizziness and tell that you husband you are pregnant. Sorry it didn’t happen to me. I have to go through lot medical procedure to get my babies my Princess and Prince; I got them only after doing IVF. Finally we got them; we forget all the struggles and fights we had to endure to get them. They make our life full, hectic and some time crazy.
If you see my house nowadays you will think of giving a best award for how to keep that it messy. Poor hubby, he is cooking and cleaning now. He got two weeks of leave after that I have to enter the kitchen with two little ones. As we have no family around, we two are taking care of two little ones. I am happy that I had a normal delivery so recovery will be more easy compared to C-section.
Most missing thing in our life is sleep, some days he sleeps for 2 hours in stretch but other day he make it Shivarathri for us ( Meaning no sleep from 12-6.00 A.M). I have even learnt to sleep in chair for hours.
For the first few days as my milk flow had not started, he was hungry all the time, now milk has started coming he want to glue to mom. He loves to sleep in day time and wake up around night. I am enjoying every hectic moment now.
No more cooking for next few weeks. So I am planning to post some guest post in the coming weeks. My few friends are kindheartedly helping me with guest posts. So I will be posting one on each week.
This is Swathi ( Dr. Ambujom Saraswathy Ph.D) from Zesty South Indian Kitchen who loves to explore cuisines from all over the world. Whenever possible I try to to give an Indian touch to several of the world cuisine, and has weakness for freshly baked bread. All the recipes you see here are created by me and approved after taste-test by my family.

Hi Swathi-although I congratulated you in e-mail, I want to express my joy for your beautiful, and healthy little prince...Nikhil. Nidhil is beaming with pride and joy, holding her little baby brother. She is such a pretty little princess, and a natural caretaker, to help out...especially at this time.
I feel bad that you have no family near you to ba able to help you. If I lived closer, I would certainly want to help you out, when you need help the most, right after you come home with your newborn baby.
Wishing you, and your hubby the best of health, and happiness with your new bundle of joy!
I'm looking forward to the guest post for next week:DDD
Cheers,
