Bollywood actress’ post about the struggles of lifting during pregnancy hints at daughter Dua

Deepika Padukone is all set to embrace motherhood yet again as she will soon be welcoming her second child with husband Ranveer Singh. Although the Piku actress has refrained from sharing pictures of herself on social media lately, she keeps her Instagram family hooked with a couple of relatable posts highlighting the various struggles of pregnancy.

On Sunday, Deepika took to the Stories section of her official Instagram handle and dropped another fun glimpse of her challenging yet fruitful pregnancy journey. The clip uploaded by the Tamasha actress on the photo-sharing app featured a pregnant woman lifting her toddler in her arms.

The post, reshared by Deepika, further included the caption, “Don’t lift anything over 20 pounds while pregnant. Me this entire pregnancy (sic).” The video shared with a Spider-Man sticker is believed to be a reference to her daughter Dua, who will soon turn two.

Prior to this, Deepika posted another such reel where she stressed the challenges of pregnant women who have to wake up several times at night to use the bathroom. The hilarious clip showed a pregnant woman, half asleep, making her way to the washroom for another midnight visit.
