A recent increase in motherhood-themed content has emerged on our social media platforms, largely attributed to Deepika Padukone. When the actress is not cherishing each moment with her infant daughter, she is sharing the most relatable motherhood posts on Instagram. Deepika, who celebrated her 39th birthday on January 5, highlighted a post concerning new mothers on her Instagram Stories this past Wednesday.

For Deepika, nothing tops having a baby

Deepika Padukone and her husband, actor Ranveer Singh, welcomed their daughter, Dua Padukone Singh, on September 8, 2024, at a hospital in Mumbai. Recently, Deepika shared a post on her Instagram Stories, expressing her sentiments with the word 'amen.' The post conveyed a powerful message to mothers who gave birth in 2024, stating, “As you view everyone's highlight reels on Instagram at the year's end, remember that your body nurtured and brought forth a new life this year. There is nothing more significant than that.”

The comments section of the post was abundant with mothers candidly sharing their experiences of motherhood. One individual expressed her pride as a mother of two, stating, “Best achievement ever.” Another remarked, “My body nurtured and delivered a beautiful baby boy in early September, and he has been the most incredible blessing for me, his father, and his brother this year. Thank you, God. Thank you, 2024.”

Additionally, one commenter noted, "Some of us welcomed two children into the world this year." Another shared, “I gave birth this December and am currently working on regaining my pre-pregnancy body…”

New mom's mental health

It is often assumed that new mothers are overwhelmed by the 'joy of motherhood'; however, this is not the reality for all. Health professionals indicate that postpartum depression is relatively prevalent in India, impacting around 20-25 percent of first-time mothers. This condition arises as women navigate significant physical and emotional transformations during childbirth.
