On Mother's Day, actress Priyanka Chopra shared the first photo of her infant daughter Malti Marie Chopra Jonas, as she celebrated Mother’s Day with her newborn, and her partner, American singing sensation Nick Jonas.
The photo was accompanied by a lengthy note in which the actress explained how her baby was born prematurely and had to spend 100 days in the NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) under observation.
Expressing appreciation to the caregivers, mothers and Jonas, Chopra wrote, “On this Mother’s Day we can’t help but reflect on these last few months and the rollercoaster we’ve been on, which we now know, so many people have also experienced. After 100 plus days in the NICU, our little girl is finally home. Every family’s journey is unique and requires a certain level of faith, and while ours was a challenging few months, what becomes abundantly clear, in retrospect, is how precious and perfect every moment is."
