She further wrote, “For the others, did you know postpartum depression is more common than you think? Mothers suffer from it and don't even know it sometimes. But you, as a partner, can do more to help her than you can imagine. In fact, you can even save her from it completely if you intervene at the right time. When suffering from PPD, a mother could feel like crying all the time, unhappy, guilty for not being joyful, complaining, frustrated, dejected, feel like a failure, & feel as though this is the end of life as she knows it.” (Also Read: Inaaya Naumi Kemmu Learns Yoga From Her Dadi On International Yoga Day, Kunal Kemmu Shares A Glimpse)

"You're not the only one who's become a mother" "Try to be happy" "The LO  needs you" "I'm doing everything I can" "You're being selfish" "Don't cry, it'll affect the milk" What you CAN say though? "I love you" "You're doing very well" "Tell me how I can help" "We're a team."

She signs off by writing, “And remember to CALL her from work just to check on her! Trust me, a few calming words can go such a long way! And if you see her crying, don't try to solve her problem, just hug her tight and agree with whatever she says. Tell her again that you love her. Tell her she's beautiful. Tell her you're lucky to have her. And dear dads, although you're overworked & overwhelmed too, trust me, this will pass sooner than you know. And you'll have a settled baby, if you have a settled mother. Love & peace from me to you! #mythoughts #postpartumdepression.”

Chhavi has been acknowledging the role of her dear husband all throughout her second-time pregnancy journey. On April 27, 2019, the newbie mommy had taken to her Instagram profile and shared a photo with her doting hubby, Mohit. Along with the same, she had written kindest words for him, which goes like, “THIS MAN! A lot of you ask me how I do everything I do even in these last few days of my pregnancy. Well, every day is not easy. Like yesterday, when walking 2 steps to the washroom was a challenge. Immense pelvic pain, back feeling like it'll break, the weight of the stomach pulling my whole body down, not getting the time to rest. Everything added up. I had to go the site of my new flat (getting ready for the new member and how!). The dust, the chaos, the questions of my architects, my 6-year-old complaining she's hungry, me almost falling down with hunger, thirst and the scorching heat, no place to sit, and the deadlines that are refusing to near the finish line.” (Checkout: Arjun Kapoor Draws An Uncanny Resemblance Between Sister, Anshula Kapoor And Mom, Mona Kapoor)

Further revealing how Mohit became a support for her when she wanted to give up, Chhavi had penned, “Trust me, I really wanted to give up and just leave everything to chance. It's back-breaking times like these when this man takes charge of me and the situation. To be honest, it's times like these, and the worst ones, and the good ones, and the great ones, and all the ones in between, that this man completes everything. And he doesn't know this, but when he sleeps in the night, and I stay awake (which is a lot), I put my hand on his chest and feel it rise and fall with his breath. It just makes me feel that life is good, because he lays next to me, always there, always loving, and there's not a worry in the world... @mohithussein thank you for giving me the best life and always loving me in my good and bad moods! #love PC: Thank you once again @sachin113photographer for capturing this moment. We hardly have any pictures of us together!”
