ABOUT THIS BOOK

You’re pregnant? That’s lovely! But perfectly pregnant… isn’t that a
wonderful possibility?
For far too long, Indian women have been conditioned to believe that
pregnancy and motherhood mark the end of their independent lives. Being
a mother once meant bidding adieu to your fitness, beauty, career and
individuality. But not anymore.
In her debut memoir, celebrated officer of the Indian Administrative Service
and the mother of two feisty little princesses, Durga Shakti Nagpal provides
you with a detailed blueprint for a perfect pregnancy. She will ensure that
the initiation of your life as a mother will be carried out with the focus
and precision of a drill sergeant, while maintaining the relatability of the
regular Indian mother-to-be.
Durga Shakti will take you through a major life glow-up in those special nine
months of your life, transforming you into the strongest, most accomplished
version of yourself. From pregnancy friendly fitness and skincare, to healthy
eating habits, meditation and skyrocketing your energy levels, she has it
all covered. And not just that, Durga Shakti addresses several life issues
that invariably accompany motherhood, but which are seldom addressed.
Subjects like post-partum blues, pregnancy-related myths and beliefs, the
role of an older child and the family’s active involvement during and after
pregnancy are all beautifully dealt with. A highly accomplished bureaucrat
by profession, and a mother and family woman by choice, Durga Shakti
will help you find you the keys to striking a perfect balance between
motherhood and life as a whole.
This is every woman’s guide to carving out an extraordinary motherhood
for herself, her child and her family.

AUTHOR OF THE BOOK

Durga Shakti Nagpal is a celebrated IAS officer belonging to the Uttar
Pradesh cadre. She is known for spearheading the largest crackdown against
the notorious sand mafia of the Noida region, an industry worth ₹22,000
crore yearly. Her relentless midnight raids, conducted over a span of several
days, are unparalleled in the country’s history and were well-lauded. When
she was threatened, physically attacked and hastily removed from her post,
there was a national upsurge in her support, and the entire country prayed
for her safety. She is also the youngest person to be awarded the Woman
of The Year award by the Economic Times.
Durga Shakti is a motivational speaker, frequently invited to speak by the
TED portal and other student communities. Apart from her professional
career as an IAS officer, she engages in philanthropic activities regularly,
and is a lover of literature, poetry and fitness. Her motto in life is: born
to Serve.
