Rubina Dilaik, currently expecting twins and in the final stretch of her pregnancy, recently delved into the lesser-discussed aspects of pregnancy on her YouTube talk show, ‘Kisine Bataya Nahi – The Mamacado Show’, featuring Rochelle Rao as a guest.
In her candid conversation, Rubina shed light on the physical changes that women commonly experience during pregnancy. One major change she noted was the impact of hormonal shifts on her skin. She expressed concern about her skin appearing dull and sought advice from her dermatologist. According to her dermatologist, pregnancy triggers hormonal fluctuations that can lead to an accumulation of melatonin in the skin, contributing to this dullness.
The expecting mother also discussed an unexpected change in her appearance – darkening of her armpits. This transformation took Rubina by surprise as she had never experienced darkening in that area before. She candidly shared her initial reaction upon noticing this change, expressing her disbelief, “What is happening? I never had dark armpits.” Another aspect Rubina touched upon was the appearance of thin stretch marks on her body, a common occurrence during pregnancy. Despite diligently applying oils to mitigate their appearance, she found it challenging to eliminate them entirely.
Rubina’s discussion sheds light on the often overlooked, yet very real, physical changes that women encounter during pregnancy. Her openness about these changes serves as a reminder that pregnancy encompasses a myriad of experiences, some of which aren’t commonly talked about in mainstream conversations.
During the conversations, Rubina Dilaik also talked about how these hormonal changes were not only limited to her skincare problems, she had revealed that she had gained so much weight that none of her shoes fit her anymore, and because of weight gain people thought that she had gotten surgery done on her face but it was only because of bloating.
