My 11 month old Baby
Life is like a hot bath. It feels good while you're in it, but the longer you stay in, the more wrinkled you get.
I often listen to a talk radio program which is based on health and health problems.The host is a board certified chiropractor and also a nutritionist.Every morning starts at 8:00am for 4 hours.Since it is only on Saturday I listen to it very leisurely,listening along with finishing my morning chores.
Life is never what you have thought for your self.At least for me.In some sense it is better than what I thought and in some sense worse than I thought it would be.Most part of my life is very pedestrian.I have a fixed routine for every thing.Read the news papers,read books,learn new words etc-etc which at times becomes very pedantic .The only excitement in my life is my daughter.
There was time when I was so much into genetic studies ,scientific researches and current news.It has always been very amazing to me as how genetics plays such a big role in peoples life and social well being.You are most of it what your parents and ancestors are , not only with respect to anatomical makeup but also from the physical appearance point of view.

People say that your likes and dislikes change with age and time. May be some of them are so close to your heart that they never change. One of the likes or you can say a dream of mine to carry my baby on my back never changed.
I know it sounds ridiculous but this is true. I remember when I was a teenager, a tribal woman used to come to our house to help my mother in household work. She had a daughter, which she would tie on her back and do all the work. She would come once in the morning and again in the evening. I would wait for her to come in the evening, so that I can play with her daughter and tie her on my back as her mother did. In the morning, I would easily miss the school and play with her. But I knew that is not going to happen so I never insisted.
To my utter happiness, I found one on Amazon and I immediately ordered it. I have not tied my daughter yet as she cant hold her head yet. I have to wait for one more month and then I am ready to go anywhere I want with my hands free, work at home. I do not know how I will feel, but for sure, it will remind me of my several childhood memories of .
Looking at my daughter now, I remember my childhood, growing up in a small town. Things were so different than now. Now a days kids do not get out of their house to play. Firstly, they are too hung up with their studies, homework and other school activities and secondly even if they have time they would rather play video games, watch T.V, or play with other gadgets. There is no physical activity at all.
The day I found out I was pregnant I took very good care of myself. I have always been very healthy and aware of all the do and don’ts during pregnancy. There was a time when I would think that while pregnant, a woman is supposed to lay on the bed all the time.Doing any work was far from my imagination. However when my own time came I realized that the theory was all rubbish unless of course in certain medical condition.
So long story short I kept exercising, eating what ever I wanted limiting some of the things that are prohibited during pregnancy. I was hyperactive active throughout the pregnancy. The day before Tutty-Fruty was born P(My husband) and I went for bowling.
I was prepped for C-Section and as if all the papers were ready before I gave my consent. In a hurry I was asked to sign the consent paper and there I was lying in the OT helpless, numb and having my baby by C-Section.
Finally, she was born, she was healthy and there were no signs of distress in her. I heard her first cry. I was sadder than any thing on that day, which was supposed to be the happiest day of my life. I felt as if I will never be the same person with the same body again, which I still think.
I do not know in old days and in
Nevertheless, this whole procedure showed a new person to me in my husband. He was always by my side when I was in pain, ignoring his own comfort altogether. He took care of me as a devoted nurse; cleaning my dirt without any hesitation. When I was in silent tears, he gently kept wiping them. When I was melting in my own misery, he was there to support me in every way.Isn't he great and loving .(and he is mine :D)
