Actor Celina Jaitley is all set to deliver her twins this month.

"I feel proud to be in the same club as Angelina Jolie, Julia Roberts and Jennifer Lopez who have had twins. These ladies rock because they have whole-heartedly embraced motherhood. They take it as a blessing and not a drawback."

Celina, who has maintained a low profile since her wedding and pregnancy, talks to CS about her journey into motherhood:

Motherhood magic
Both Peter and I absolutely love children, and we were totally over the moon when we found out that we were expecting twins. It was an exhilarating surprise. It's been a fascinating journey so far with some unexpected twists and turns. The best way to cope is with loads of love, togetherness and a good sense of humour. Peter is my best friend and support. I am also blessed to have a wonderful set of doctors, and an excellent set of friends in Dubai. My friends from India also keep visiting me, so it's been quite blissful.

What's in a name?
Peter and I strongly believe that the names we give our kids will forever affect their sense of identity, so we are still in the process of scouting for perfect names. We want them to have unique names that will reflect both our cultures and countries. Shopping for the babies has been fun. It involved a lot of research, specially when it came to baby equipment for twins. Peter did most of the research and we had products shipped all the way from Netherlands, London and Germany.

Emotional rollercoaster
I personally believe that one of the main tasks for you during the nine months of pregnancy is to mentally prepare yourself for motherhood. At times, you feel like a superwoman in the morning even with morning sickness (ha ha ha). The emotional roller-coaster is perfectly normal in pregnancy. Pregnancy is a wonderful experience and I don't allow my mood swings to stress me out. The only problem is that your favourite toothpaste and perfume become your biggest enemy.

Screen time
My next film will go on floors in end-July, and I am already preparing for it. I want to be a complete woman. My mother-in-law will help out with the twins when I am shooting. Even though I am in my last trimester, I am reading scripts and signing on new endorsements. This is the power of a woman; she can multi-task and do it all!
