Border 2 producer Nidhi Dutta announces pregnancy: ‘The journey to get to this picture has been one of tears, fear, pain & longing…'
Nidhi Dutta, the producer of Border 2 and daughter of renowned filmmaker JP Dutta, recently spoke about her difficult journey to motherhood. In an Instagram note, Nidhi opened up about how others' pregnancy announcements impacted her mental health while she was going through fertility struggles.
On Thursday, she shared a picture from her pregnancy photoshoot and wrote, 'This picture in any other country but India would have been tagged on Instagram as 'Sensitive content' as it is an absolute mental health trigger for anyone that is TTC… like many of the pregnancy announcements that became a trigger for me… TTC… a term I didn't know existed and one I became extremely aware of and a part of.'
Sharing the story behind the picture, Nidhi wrote, 'The journey to get to this picture has been one of tears, fear, pain & longing… all the while trying to find smiles over tears… faith over the fear and strength through the pain… a woman 'trying to conceive' can have the greatest partner and his support & the greatest support system in family & friends but can still feel all alone through it.'
Nidhi Dutta said while she is aware that a lot of women talk about what they have been through once they deliver the baby, especially about fertility treatments like IUI/IVF, she believes it is not needed.
'I know most women talk about what they have been through once they deliver the baby… specially about fertility treatments like IUI/IVF… but the truth is We Don't want to know what the procedure has in store! We have doctors for that… and some of the best in India too… what we need is women to speak about it while they go through the journey.'

DO NOT Give up! It's the only way to reach your miracle and nobody will do it for u! We must find the strength inside us and make our miracle happen.'
She concluded her note with an emotional note for the all the women going through a similar struggle. She wrote, 'to all the women who have lost their babies before they met them… to the ones still waiting in their infertility centres… to the ones currently about to take their injection of the day… to the ones waiting for that phone call of adoption… no matter which phase of TTC your in…. This mom to be… sees you… was you… and is praying for u with every step I take. Your miracle is not far away. I promise. Just please hang in there.'
