New Delhi:

Model Gabriella Demetriades welcomed her second child, a baby boy, with boyfriend Arjun Rampal last month. The new mama, in an ‘Ask me anything' session on Instagram Stories, spoke about postpartum. A user asked Gabriella, “How much time does it take to feel like yourself postpartum?” In her reply, the model-turned-designer said that “the first few days, weeks are really hard, but the joy outweighs the lack of sleep and social life.” She mentioned that having a child changes you as a person, “I don't think we are ever the same as we were”. Gabriella said, “I think this is subjective but if you can manage to sleep ...you will. Feel like yourself soon. The first few days / weeks are really hard but then the joy outweighs the lack of sleep / social life. Also, I don't think we are ever the same as we were, having a child changes you and things.”

Another user asked Gabriella, “What is the best advice you would give to new moms who are constantly waking up?” To this, the model replied, “This too shall pass...(without sounding cheesy, but it's such a short moment in life and then they get big so quickly).”
