Baapbeeti - A Pregnant Papa Podcast

And finally the evacuation of our son Swabhaav - we car-lifted him back to home for the hospital. That final day in the NICU when getting clearances was as tough as getting an admission - moving from one department to the other, clearing massive dues at the hospital, and last-minute surprise baby checkups kept us anxious.

Baby Pix - the most common social demand as you share with the world that you have become a parent. They all want to play the game - kispe gaya hai baby? I read 100 such messages from friends and family when I was shuttling between hospital and home every 2 hours. Swabhaav was diagnosed with jaundice on Day 4 and was kept under the blue light - what the blue? He recovered but was still way far from the homecoming.
