Geeta
Basra
who
recently
welcomed
her
second
child
with
husband
Harbhajan
Singh,
revealed
that
she
suffered
two
miscarriages
before
giving
birth
to
her
son
Jovan
Veer
Singh
Plaha.
While
speaking
with
a
leading
tabloid,
the
actress
revealed
that
her
first
miscarriage
happened
in
2019
and
the
second
one
last
year.
Speaking
about
those
two
unfortunate
events,
Geeta
told
ETimes
that
when
she
lost
her
unborn
baby
for
the
first
time,
her
husband
Harbhajan
Singh
flew
down
from
Punjab
to
be
by
her
side,
while
during
her
second
miscarriage,
they
were
together
because
of
the
COVID-19
lockdown.
The
actress
said
that
the
last
two
years
had
been
traumatic
for
her
but
she
held
herself
from
breaking
down.
"The
last
two
years
have
been
traumatic
for
me
no
doubt
but
I
held
myself
from
breaking
down.
A
woman's
hormones
after
a
miscarriage
go
up
and
down
a
lot,
which,
in
turn,
makes
it
extremely
difficult
for
her
to
maintain
her
composure.
I
kept
myself
strong
and
did
not
allow
that
meltdown
to
happen,"
the
publication
quoted
Geeta
as
saying.
She
revealed
that
after
her
second
miscarriage,
she
and
her
hubby
Harbhajan
moved
in
to
her
in-laws'
place
for
some
time.
During
that
period,
she
got
pregnant
again
and
took
all
the
necessary
precautions.
Geeta
was
quoted
as
saying
by
ETimes,
"I
decided
to
completely
rest
it
out
in
the
first
trimester.
I
just
took
my
vitamins
and
waited
for
the
first
three
months
to
get
over.
After
that,
we
came
to
Mumbai,
and
a
little
later,
I
took
to
yoga.
That
helped
me
a
lot.
Long
works
in
the
last
trimester
were
a
given.
My
gut
instinct
told
me
that
this
time
all
will
go
well.
Touchwood,
it
did".
Geeta
and
Harbhajan
were
blessed
with
a
baby
boy
on
July
10
this
year.
Further,
the
actress
urged
women
not
to
lose
hope
after
miscarriages
and
suffer
in
silence
yearning
for
a
child.
Geeta
said,
"I
want
to
tell
those
women
who
have
had
miscarriages
and
lost
hope
to
pick
themselves
up
again.
They
should
not
give
up
and
suffer
in
silence
yearning
for
a
child.
Yes,
a
miscarriage
can
have
a
terrible
effect
on
you
from
which
you
might
take
a
long
time
to
come
out.
A
couple
of
my
friends
have
had
miscarriages.
But
we
as
women
have
to
learn
to
put
this
behind
us
in
the
quickest
possible
time."
Besides
Jovan,
Geeta
and
Harbhajan
are
also
parents
to
five-year
old
daughter
Hinaya
Heer.
"It
is
important
for
a
girl
to
have
the
right
support
system
around
her.
Even
before
I
got
married,
I
was
sure
I
wanted
to
have
kids,
not
one
but
two.
The
bond
formed
between
siblings
is
very
strong
and
the
first
child
always
needs
company.
My
daughter
Hinaya
is
5
years
old
now;
if
I
had
my
way
she
would
have
been
3
years
old
when
Jovan
was
born," the
actress
told
the
leading
daily.
