As she returns to screens for a second season of the celebrity talk show With Love , Becks , we catch up with Rebecca Lim about how she’s doing in her new motherhood journey.New: You can now listen to articles.After welcoming her first child at the start of the year, actress Rebecca Lim has been focusing on motherhood while easing gently back into work. She returns to screens with her first project since going on maternity leave : The second season of her celebrity talk show With Love , Becks .
While at the start, it took a while for the fact that there was now a whole new human being in her life to sink in, “I definitely feel that he is a part of me now. It felt like we were separate entities for the first few months,” said the 38-year-old, who has introduced her son to the public as “Baby M”. “We do have routines I do with him every morning when he gets up or whenever I am playing with him.”Baby M’s personality is a mix of hers and her husband Matthew’s, she mused.
“I have good days, and I have bad days,” she confessed. But, no matter what, “I don't make any special requests to head home early or to even have a longer meal break so that I can pump and eat properly. Because I feel that everyone is fighting a battle we don't know about and even though I have a baby waiting for me at home and I'm a first-time mum, someone else on set may have a sick child or parent who's waiting for them, too.
“I don't like how there's so much emphasis on how we look, and how much pressure there is to look ‘like our old selves’ right after we give birth,” she told us."It's extremely ridiculous and unnecessarily stressful.”On the other hand, the best advice has come from her mum. “She shared with my sister and I while we were both pregnant that we should continue to love ourselves and take care of ourselves even after we become mothers.
