Anushka Sharma REVEALS first trimester of her pregnancy was ‘awful’; Here’s how Virat Kohli helped her

Actor Anushka Sharma and Indian skipper Virat Kohli embraced parenthood for the first time by welcoming a baby girl Vamika in January this year. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the couple announced their pregnancy that left everyone overwhelmed. As everyone’s pregnancy journey is different, Anushka recently revealed how her pregnancy phase looked. While becoming the cover girl of Grazia magazine, the Zero actor revealed that the first trimester of her pregnancy was awful; however, she felt nice as her hubby Virat was beside her all the time.

Due to COVID-19, Anushka shared that she had to stay at home during her pregnancy and they made the most of this time. “Had he been travelling, I wouldn’t have been able to accompany him in my condition. My first trimester was awful, so it was nice to have him by my side, to handhold and be my cheerleader,” she said. Moreover, she even revealed that she was uncomfortable with her post-motherhood body but now, she has made peace with herself and her body.

“My body’s not as it used to be; it’s not as toned as it was. And I’m working towards it because I like to be fit. Having said that, I am so much more comfortable in my skin today than I was before, even when I had that ‘perfect body’. I’ve realised that it’s a state of mind, it has nothing to do with how you look.”

“You have to be accepting of the body that’s done something so profound and miraculous for you. I’d never want my daughter to grow up with that sense of lacking that we’re always made to feel as women. Ultimately, it’s all about perspective. The girl who has the ‘perfect’ body can still not feel great while the girl who doesn’t have a body that aligns with societal beauty standards can still, be immensely confident,” she added.
