Fatherhood and bonding:
A baby indeed needs a father and mother to grow cheerfully.
My husband who was taking giant leaps in his career was unable to give time to his family because of heavy work pressure. He used to work like a machine and after the baby, his absence started creating a vacuum and hollowness in our lives.
I recollect when my 7-month-old boy was unable to recognize his father after Rohit returned from his 14-day US trip.
Our son was scared to see a stranger in our room and was crying and screaming constantly at Rohit and grabbing my face with his little hands.
Such incidents and tensions within our relationship between the phases kept happening for 1 year. (Someday will mention relationships and postpartum depression).
So he decided to go through a major transformation in our lives.
Luckily, he was offered a role which he was longing for and with this additional bonus was that he could devote his weekends and spare some time on weekdays with us.
With my break, we decided to take care of our family and live a simpler life. With this, the bond has grown stronger and love is all around us.
Bigi now plays with his father and loves him more. They both play, laugh, dance and giggle.
Especially, Rohit allows him to do whatever he wants and contributes to making the house messy.
We can feel that within this short span, the baby has shown rapid growth in the graph of naughtiness and development.
I believe it’s very important to understand the priorities, compare and make some decisions.
Maybe my career has been at a standstill for some time but this pause has resumed the other phase of my life in a much more satisfactory norms.
Our married life is back on track in the most loving way and we are seeing rainbows every day.
Our baby is getting the love and pampering he deserves and unwanted attention.
I am writing again a fairy tale where my tears roll down out of joy.
I believe that we write our fairy tales multiple times in life. It’s how we decide to lead our life and I am the one who wants to enjoy every phase and experience every challenge in life.
