I have read it again and again and again....a zillion times on this forum...geet is pregnant she cant run, uska baccha special material ka bana hai...geet is jumping...how can she still be carrying the child....
Uff...are we all educated women ??...coz it is amazing how most of us have this 16th century mis conception of pregnancy.
Please note that a woman can be as normal as u and me while being pregnant..especially in the first months or till the last trimester..the last three months...any woman can laught, smile, jump, fall, exercise moderately...its all done ...ofcourse as i have mentioned the last three months are a different story!!...contrary to popular belief women do not turn into glass dolls, moving in slow motion when they are pregnant...only in cases where doctors advise caution or rest..do they have to slow down.
Another thing..about the baby...babies in mother's tumies are really really strong...nature and god have made them that way...they are surrounded by plenty of protective layers...they are the most protected in momm's stomach...and the arrangement is such that whatever the mother eats...all the nutrients required will first go to the baby and whatever is left over will be given to mummy...they are soo strong that there have been cases where the mother has died ..but babies have managed to survive inspite of that...They are miracles of nature..well protected!!
And another point about the super baby thingy...The baby..typically the first time baby does not show till fifth month...so geet is not showing..and if she starts showing at this stage...it would be weird and totally unrealistic
About the morning sickness and fainting...again..not all women have that..it is a myth...it is very individualistic...not a set path that each woman has to have these...actually most dont have it!!
The misunderstandings and misconceptions that even educated women have about pregnancy is disturbing....!!

We all are living in the 21st century..but looks like cvs arent

geet is def 3-4 months - she should hv been doctors atlest 1 to discuss her pregnancy...she escaped briji's talwar..many falls..bumps..u name it...but clerly cvs are missing one of the main points in the serial...no wonder day by day there are soo many fans that are creating new threads n r asking cvs to put some reality in this seriall
i spotted this like 2 weeks ago but obv some members found it very difficult to DIGEST - we are not here to complain but to make the cvs realiz where they are going n that it DOWNHILL..
Cvs need to read our comments (not the one on geet fb cuz no offence but some of those fans are crazy n would love anyfink)
i like ur post btw ..im sure u gna get a lot of feedback

This is how pregnancy is shown in Hindi soaps.The baby survies despite of everything.Geet is not that much unrealistic.Atleast Geet felt dizzy at times.But in KZK Prerna's pregnacy was so unrealistic.She never fainted neither vomit.And when she gave birth to Sneha she didn't have a pregnancy bump also.These things are common in Hindi soaps.So why care these things?

Thank you, thank you, thank you!👏

The reaction in the forum over the pregnancy and how it's been shown so far has been bugging me for a long time. I have been thinking of creating a topic about this myself. Everything you have said is true, and perfectly stated, so I will not repeat it.

I would like to suggest to the doubters still out there to go and watch, or at least look up on the interenet about a show on the Discovery Health Channel called "I didn't know I was pregnant". As strange as it sounds there are women, who for what ever reason, do not know they are pregnant right until the baby is born. This is obviously not what happens to everyone, but it does happen to some people, and these women do all kinds of crazy things and many times the baby turns out perfectly healthy.

About Geet needing to visit the doctor. I agree that she should be doing this, but there have been millions, and billions of women in previous times (and even still today) who did not have access to doctors and the kind of medical care we have available. They and their babies did survive, although again many times they did not. What is my point? While Geet definitely should be going to the doctor and taking care of herself, just because she isn't doesn't mean that anything bad is going to happen.

I think that the CV's have totally not portrayed her behavior regarding her pregnancy correctly, but it is also not that unrealistic. Once the pregnancy is known by Maan, and assuming he doesn't think bad things about her, it will be interesting to see how they show his reactions to her not taking care of herself properly.


Ugh! I should be working on my own update, not writing this post, but I just couldn't keep it inside any longer.

actually over here most of us are teenagers thats why we dont hv much idea abt this, all we say this is on the basis of previous soaps which shows a woman very sensitive( example is yeh rishta, we all can see how varsha is treated nowadays) 😊

I am in the Medical Field and i beg to disagree with a few of your Facts...Yes i agree Pregnancy does not make you a Glass doll...But it does not make you clumsy too....

Geet is in her first trimester of Pregnancy....She can do anything normal Pregnant ladies in this time period do and that does not include Jumping,running and being irresponsible to the Life growing inside you....

Its in the first Trimester that Baby inside you takes form...and shapes itself...baby is the most safest in mothers womb....true....but what if the uterus carrying the baby cant support it...in no time we can see an abortion....and this is the reason why even if we are in the 21st century pregnant ladies are always cautioned to be careful in the first trimester of Pregnancy....

In Third Trimester i agree you are advised to do all sorts of things in the safest possible way coz it makes Delivery Easier....

Morning Sickness is not common i agree...but nausea is...and this is because of the hormonal changes that is going in your body...there hasn't been one time except for the time she was in Hoshiyaarpur when they have shown her nauseating....

Many things shown in the show regarding Pregnancy is wrong unless there is a Valid reason and explanation for all
