Hollywood star, Mindy Kaling covers June 2018 issue of Shape Magazine. In that edition, she opens up about life as a new mom to her baby, Katherine Kaling and the amount of weight she gained during her pregnancy.

Speaking about her daughter, the beautiful actress said:

” I want my daughter to be proud of what I do. I want her to brag about me to her friends….She is a really happy baby. When she was born, she was kind of skinny and anxious. I think she was like, ‘Can this woman take care of me?’

“But during our many breastfeeding sessions, we’ve gotten to know each other, and she’s learned to trust me over time….It hits me all the time that I have somebody at home who not just wants to see me but needs to see me. That’s incredibly rewarding. When someone needs you all the time, and they also kind of look like you, it’s a really nice feeling.”
