For readers of the book

You found your way here.

Thank you for reading She Was Also Born That Day. The book could not answer you personally, and this page is the nearest thing to a reply, what is here, who to call, and how to reach me if you would like to talk to someone.

The mother births herself after her child and in that moment is a miracle of dual birth and the beginning of her fourth trimester.

If you would like to talk to someone

I see clients online across India and abroad, and in person in Gurugram. If something in the book described your own weeks too closely, that is a reason to book a session, not proof that anything is wrong with you.

Book a session Postpartum support

A quiet self-check

A few reflective questions, in private. Nothing is scored, nothing is stored, and it never tells you that you are fine.

When it needs more than a book

Helplines, the signs worth acting on, and what to do tonight rather than next week. Appendix B, kept current.

Your mental health first aid kit

The practical part of Chapter 10, laid out as one page you can keep on your phone. Made for a bad afternoon, not for a careful read.

Someone gave you this book?

There is a page for partners, mothers and mothers-in-law, what is actually happening to her, and the few things that genuinely help.
