Anand was in the other room of our London apartment since he had Covid and I basically Zoomed him and gave him the news. exactly a month later, I came down with a fever, cough, and cold. I was terrified and immediately started googling “What happens if you have Covid when you’re pregnant?” It was tough. I was taking progesterone shots in my thighs and stomach—practically everywhere on my body—because I was of advanced maternal age and was constantly throwing up, sick, and bedridden. Everyone’s so tense about women who get pregnant after 31 or 32. They tell you don’t do this, don’t do that, don’t get gestational diabetes or pre-eclampsia. I was like, “Wait, hang on, I still feel very young. I’ve got my dad’s genes, I look very young. It’ll be fine.” A boy was recently born to the couple. Sonam Kapoor and Anand Ahuja's response said, "On 20.08.2022, we welcomed our beautiful baby boy with bowed heads and open hearts. Thank you to all the doctors, nurses, friends, and family who have supported us on this journey. It's only the beginning but we know our lives are forever changed."
