hi all,

mine god bharai is on 27th may. as we r bengali so we call it as shad. in bengali godbharai takes place twice. once in 7th month given by mother in law and 2nd in 9th month given by mother. we were new saree and get some jwellery from mother in law. its really fun to be the centre of attraction of everyone.
take care.

hey all..
i asked my MIL y' day as to when they plan to do my godbharai and she said that they dont have that tradition in their family...i am sooooo disappointed :(((
I am gonna talk to my mom and have her do this for me from their side..i am soo excited about the whole stuff that i dont want to be deprived of it..i didnt know about the Adhik Maas, i will have to check with my mom..

i didnt know about this ' not seeing the hubby' thing..even if there was something like that, i dont think i could stay without seeing him...

alrighty gals, congrats and all the best for your baby showers...take care..

Hi,
Well I am in my 26th week and would loveto have this ceremony at my place , but due to fictions with my ma-in-law , nobody is there to take the initiative , is this supposed to be done only by in laws or can my mother do it also, I am a punjabi.
All the best to all of you for the fuction and may god bless you and your child with all the health and happiness in the world.
Bye

Hi all,

The reason my Godbharai is kept early, because Adhik Maas starts on May 17th. And in our family, no ceremonies are held during this period. Thats the reason, its on May 14th. And why I am having to leave for my mothers' place so early. :(
Also, you are not supposed to see your husband' s face during this month. Dont any of you have to follow any of these rules??
Hey, and one more news....my due date is on 7th August, but my doctor was saying, I might deliver any day after 15th July.

Thats the news from my side.
