As we went through the months of Ashu’s pregnancy it seemed like the most sort after date, the date of delivery, was end of a long process. Only after the delivery, reality sets in that it is also beginning of a longer (never ending) process - the task or art (whichever way one looks) of bringing up a child. It is tough physically and mentally (post-natal depression come to hog too). Undoubtedly, it is a pleasure and an experience difficult to explain. Compare this to an adventurist rock climber. Although tough & strenuous, it is fun & thrilling. Use of appropriate & latest gears enhances the fun part and softens the hard part.
Same logic applies in the upbringing of a new born. Seek out for modern and latest products & services to tilt the balance towards the pleasure side of things.
Full credits to Ashu on this front to have explored many avenues and discovered some interesting & uncommon products in the market (My contribution is limited to toughest of all - opening the wallet!). These products serve one or more of the following -
Ease out on energy-draining tasks
Improve the comfort for the tiny tot
Reduce the need for a helping hand (read “be independent”)
