"Swabhaav" is what we named Teju, the sperm that made it to life. The season finale of Baapbeeti: A Pregnant Papa Podcast, unfolds the story of Swabhaav’s birth on the day of Diwali 2020, i.e today. 

Join me in the delivery room – where the push and pull were not easy. 

When we finally did see our baby boy – we couldn’t hold him. He was rushed into the intensive care unit. 

Ep 14 – Swabhaav concludes our pregnancy journey, and from here we enter the next stage - parenthood.

For now enjoy the season finale! 

Baapbeeti season 2 will be back early next year in 2021. So till then keep sharing the Baapbeeti.

We waited for 9 months and now ‘It’s ShowTime’ – the day of delivery was here. It was an early hospitalization and the hours of labor pain were long. I witnessed it all, it was tough for her – so much pain that I wondered why I couldn't share her pain as the Pregnant Papa.
I stood by my wife. I tried distracting her with small talks, cracked some lame jokes, and became a motivation speaker for a few minutes so she could gather the courage to deliver smoothly – but she was giving up and I kept telling her that ‘It’s Showtime’…hang on!!
But to my shock, the baby in the womb……something happened?
Listen Now - the penultimate episode of Baapbeeti – Ep 13 – It’s ShowTime.

‘Daddy’s Hospital Bag’ is something unheard of – so why not hear about it now? When I planned for my wife Swati’s pregnancy hospital bag – I carried a bag of mine. This episode discusses all the important things a pregnant papa needs to take care of during the ninth month of pregnancy. By now a pregnant couple gets anxious, emotional, and scared of the ‘D’- Delivery Day. Listen to what happened between us, when we were about to deliver – Episode 12 – Daddy’s Hospital Bag.

‘My Startup’ needed a venture capitalist, so who better to invest, than me!? Obviously!

By the end of the 8th month of pregnancy you should be making informed decisions about how you bring this new life into the world.

This episode talks about all the prep behind the launch of ‘My Startup’ – a go-to guide for every pregnant papa who may often get confused with the delivery processes of a newborn. Suno, aur apne Startup ki planning mei lag jao. Play now – Episode 11 – My StartUp

Epic Fail – that’s how I would describe our ‘Babymoon’. I risked our pregnancy for varied local experiences – all of them turned out to be a nightmare. Everything I planned for this babymoon was an epic fail. What all had my pregnant wife and the baby in the belly gone through? Listen to all my mis-adventures here in the new episode of Baapbeeti – Ep 9 – Epic Fail ☹

Six months pregnant and travelling? Is it safe? Know about this, myths and more facts about pregnancy in the 8th episode of Baapbeeti: A Pregnant Papa Podcast – when I take you on our babymoon, on our 6th month of pregnancy. But not everything went well.....

Why? Find out here. Play now, Episode 8.

Baby bump and the odd conversations around it – Episode 7 – It Kicked! talks about all the myths and fantasies related to pregnancy. By now we were halfway through, in months 4 & 5 and anxiously waiting for ‘Teju’ to kick. How and when it kicked, surprised and moved us emotionally. There was life inside, who was responding to all things outside – how? For more on that, play now – Episode of 7 of Baapbeeti – It Kicked!

‘Breaking the News’ wasn’t easy – NO ONE hugged me :(
And that didn’t go down really well through my ‘Esophagus or Oesophagus’ damn – food pipe. Ok?
Rather I was asked some ridiculous questions related to my wife’s pregnancy. 

How to deal with ‘Breaking the News’ and then ‘Breaking the Head’ with your loved ones. 

Find out in the new episode of Baapbeeti. Play now Episode 6 - Breaking (THE) News.

Have you ever gone to a temple to seek God’s blessings to have a child?

Do you think it works? I don’t. Because I think ‘Death By Chocolate’ works better than any prayer.

Let’s talk about cravings during pregnancy.
Ice cream, chocolate or ras malai – what kind of sugar cravings did your pregnant partner have? and why exactly do they crave for it?

Hear it here on Baapbeeti Ep5 – Death By Chocolate. Droooooool in!
