New Delhi: Actor Celina Jaitley, who is a mother of three boys, posted an emotional note on Instagram on Wednesday and shared about losing her son Shamsher during her second twin pregnancy. Jaitly, who is married to businessman Peter Haag, gave birth to twin baby boys in 2017 but lost one child due to a heart condition. Her other baby Arthur was born preterm. It was her second twin pregnancy after she gave birth to boys in 2012.
Celina shared a picture of her holding her baby Arthur as husband Peter Nag posed with her, the second picture is of the baby in NICU and the third picture is of the couple with their three kids. She wrote in the caption, “It took me 5 years to come to terms with this episode of our lives but I have finally summoned the courage to talk about my ordeal to help many parents who reach out to @haag.peter & I as they deal with the trauma of preterm birth and loss of a baby. Peter n I want such parents to know that they can get through this. In personal experience we both can vouch that your Preemie baby is a true survivor. #preemies show us the power of faith & prayer and the fight of the human spirit. Remember that most #prematurebabies survive and live completely normal, healthy lives. PS: Preterm is defined as babies born alive before 37 weeks of #pregnancy are completed.”

She then went on to share about the loss of her baby Shamsher and also about her second baby Arthur, who had to be admitted to NICU as he was born pre-term.
She wrote, “The outcome of our 2nd spontaneous #twinpregnancy was bittersweet due to Baby Shamsher’s loss due to a heart condition.( I went into labour at 32 weeks due to my fathers sudden passing.) It was very difficult for Peter n I but we smiled after many million tears in this photograph (1) to seal a happy memory for our blessing baby @arthurjhaag arrival as he went straight to NICU in an incubator for 3 months immediately upon his arrival. The NICU was a strange & difficult environment. From our experience, accepting that there will be good days and bad days will help you to feel less shocked & worried when challenging days happen. While not an option for everyone, Peter & I moved into the same hospital in Dubai for the few months of #nicu as loss of Shamsher left us immensely anxious about Arthur and feelings of frustration, intense sadness, nervousness, disappointment, guilt, anger, love overwhelmed us too. So please know that you are not alone in how you are feeling. Know that extreme & sometimes contradictory emotions are experienced by nearly every parent of a preemie at one time or another. It is very important at such a time to remember you can be more effective as a team than individually so watch your teamwork as parents. Speaking, singing gently to your premature baby in the NICU is a great way to bond and feel close, even when you can’t hold him. Remember Impossible odds set the stage for incredible miracles.
Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it. #celinajaitly”
Celina made her debut with Feroz Khan's Janasheen and has worked in films like Apna Sapna Money Money, and No Entry.
