About this listen

 Welcome to Maa Ka Mic, a raw and real podcast by Preeja—for every Indian mom and mom-to-be who’s tired of hearing only the “pretty” side of motherhood. Here, we talk about the truths that don’t make it to Instagram. The moments you didn’t feel a glow, but felt guilt. The pregnancy acne, the hormonal rollercoasters, the unexpected breakdowns. The mental chaos, the career pauses, the identity shifts, and the quiet fears you don’t always know how to say out loud.Copyright 2025 Preeja Hygiene & Healthy Living Psychology Psychology & Mental Health Social Sciences

    Episode 2: “It’s Okay If You Didn’t Realize You Were Pregnant”

    Welcome to Maa Ka Mic—by Preeja a podcast for every Indian mom and mom-to-be who’s tired of hearing only the “pretty” side of motherhood.

    What if you didn’t know you were pregnant for the first few weeks—or even months?
    Does that make you careless?
    No. It makes you human.

    In this opening episode, I share my own story—the chaos, the travel, the stress, and the unexpected vada pav cravings—that led me to discover my pregnancy later than expected. This one’s for every maa who’s ever questioned herself.

    Because the moment you find out is not your deadline—it’s your beginning.
