is enjoying

motherhood

to its fullest, with the arrival of her son Vayu. She has taken some time off from work to completely focus on her baby boy. The ‘Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga’ actress recently opened up about her journey into motherhood, and also about putting on weight during the time.
In a recent interview with the Dirty magazine, Sonam shared that becoming a mom was very important to her, and she wanted it so badly.

She also spoke about how after the birth of her son, she ‘just needed to be a mom for two years’.
Sonam Kapoor further spoke about how in the first three months of her pregnancy she put on 15 kilos. And after that it went on going up, and she was ‘back to her heaviest ever’. Sonam also revealed that she thought after delivery, she would go ‘back to her old body’, which didn’t happen, and it took her a year and a half to lose the weight. She also opened up about having

body image issues

and at times how ‘traumatic’ it was especially since she was in the public eye after the age of 17.
Sonam also spoke about how blessed she is to have a lot of help during her journey of parenthood, including her husband, who shared every single duty with her and was there every step of the way.

Four years after tying the knot, Sonam and her husband
