Ode to Growth: The Tale of the Nazaria Band

Newborn speaks

Mujhe Nazaria bandhvaa de re, O meri jeevandayani...

Maa first three months of my life are the most growing months of my life...as most newborns double their birth weight in this period...

This growth never happens again in life...

Few years back, it was customary to use Nazaria

over wrist and every week, Maa had to loosen it to reassure growth of baby..

 Maa tu ab bhee kar na, do not lose this good practice...
