Geeta Basra Will Leave You Motivated As She Opens Up About Her Miscarriages; Says, ‘I Didn’t Want Women To Give Up’
BollywoodB-Town actress Geeta Basra who has reportedly suffered two miscarriages talks to a leading publication about the immense support she received from her husband and shared in detail why she chose to speak openly about miscarriages. Geeta Basra felt that the social media is the best platform to speak on various issues and raise awareness
Indian national cricketer Harbhajan Singh’s wife Geeta Basra spoke to a leading publication and had opened up about suffering two miscarriages after the birth of her daughter Hinaya. In a recent interview, Geeta Basra revealed how miscarriages are very common and a lot of her friends have gone through the same trauma. The cricketer’s wife further shared that the best platform to talk about it is obviously social media.
Geeta Basra then shared that she was overwhelmed with the response that she got and said she had realized how important it is to talk about these things because it is common, and is a very traumatic time for a woman to go through, because it’s a part of you. The moment you know you’re pregnant, probably 99 percent of women start planning for the future, the nine months – what’s going to happen, how you going to go about it, this beautiful bundle of joy that’s going to come in your arms – and when that moment happens, it’s the worst moment of your life, that you lose that little life inside you, Harbhajan Singh’s wife Geeta Basra spoke.
She further added, “It definitely takes a toll on you, and is a very hard thing to go through especially if you don’t have the support around you, it’s even harder. So I wanted to talk about it because after Jovan was born, I realized a lot of women who come to me and say they are not able to conceive, they are asking questions about what should I do. I realized that something like this where maybe being a celebrity they feel our life is so easy and that you just see the end result, that we have got this beautiful baby in our arms. But the whole journey towards that, how hard it is even for us to conceive sometimes. So the more we talk about it, it can give other women hope, and that’s what happened when I spoke about it.”
Geeta Basra continued that she didn’t want any women to give up and many women have contacted her, write to her, text her and open up about their miscarriage-traumas as well. She also added, ” I didn’t want women to give up, I didn’t want women to lose that hope that it will not happen. Even after a few miscarriages it still can happen, and it will happen. We have to have that belief, positive mindset and believe that it will happen,” says Geeta as she left a ray of hope in all the women out there.
