Payal Kapadia's book Maidless in Mumbai will connect all new-mom's together in one string. If you haven't read this hilarious book yet , grab it from Amazon and calm your hormones .
The story revolves around Anu a working lady who has given birth recently to a baby girl Tara. Before she was admitted to the hospital she lined up all her important postpartum work pretty neatly . She appointed a nurse to take care of her baby but when the time came the nurse didn't pick her call neither she came for work.Meanwhile her MIL( mom-in-law ) comes for a stay and she gets bombard with advises."yesterday you were living for yourself .Now live for your daughter." Her husband avoids being into all such situation. Anu looks for the perfect maid who can help her in the midst of the chaos. Will she find one?
My Views:
Though the story says maidless in Mumbai but I think its pretty problematic everywhere. I myself face this every time and my life becomes chaotic with a one yr old .
One thing I would say is - women whether working or not life changes hysterically with a newborn. The book is hilarious. I giggled all through the chapters cause the author was right on point but in a comic style . A must read !
Ratings: ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5
