Katrina Kaif welcomed her first child, a baby boy named Vihaan, in November 2025 with her husband, actor Vicky Kaushal. The actor couple are known to lead a very private life and aren’t very big on sharing
their personal life online. However, every once in a while, they will share a small glimpse into their family life, and their fans love to see the playful relationship they share.
And this time it was no different.
Actor Vicky Kaushal recently took to his Instagram Story to show just how far he’d go for the love of his life, Katrina Kaif, as he turned into an unofficial ambassador for her makeup brand, Kay Beauty. On Wednesday, April 29, the actor took to his Instagram Stories to promote the brand’s new jelly lip and cheek wand in his signature cheeky style.
Sharing a selfie of himself holding a jelly lip and cheek wand after applying it to his face, he wrote, “Caffeinated cheeks for caffeinated me! What a wow,” and tagged Katrina and Kay Beauty. He went on to joke, “I tried my best, but sadly, not a paid promotion.”
To this, the new mommy, actor Katrina Kaif, was quick to repost his story and react to it. She wrote, “Best for sleep deprived dads.” Their playful banter has grabbed everyone’s attention online, leaving their fans in awe.
While this was a short yet playful take on this new season of their life, the reality is that the newborn phase is tough for many first time parents. It can include a lot of sleepless nights, not having time for themselves or their partners, or a socail life as they get used to this new phase.
Here are some practical tips for new parents who are also dealing with the same thing Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal are as well. Celebrities, they are just like us.
Sleep when the baby sleeps
This old‑fashioned advice is one of the most practical rules of all. Newborns wake often, every 2–3 hours, so chasing a full, uninterrupted night’s sleep is almost impossible. Instead of using that time to tidy up the house, try to lie down when your baby naps. Even a 20–30 minute nap can help your body catch up on rest, reduce irritability, and give you more energy for the next round of feeds and changes. Push tasks aside guilt‑free; your rest is the priority.
Create a simple night‑time “baby station”
When you’re exhausted, even small movements feel heavy. Set up a small table by your bedside with everything you need for a night feed: diapers, wipes, burp cloths, a change of clothes, a water bottle, and a snack for you. If you’re breastfeeding, consider pumping some milk so a partner or caregiver can handle a middle‑of‑the‑night feed once in a while. This setup reduces trips around the house and helps you respond faster with fewer distractions.
Take turns or switch “shifts”
If you have a partner or another caregiver, divide the night into shifts so both of you can get at least one stretch of uninterrupted sleep. For example, one person handles the first half of the night, and the other handles the second. If you’re feeding yourself, your partner can still manage diaper changes, burping, and soothing the baby to help you get a short rest between feeds. Sharing the load makes you feel less alone and gives each of you a chance to recover.
Simplify household chores
Newborns don’t judge how clean your house is, but they do need you to feel safe and present. Put aside deep‑cleaning, heavy cooking, and long chore cycles for later. Focus on essentials: tidy one room, freeze simple meals, and ask for help with laundry or grocery runs. You’ll be surprised how much mental space opening up can give you, even if the house isn’t Pinterest‑ready.
Build a steady routine
Newborns don’t stick to a strict schedule, but a loose rhythm can calm both of you. Try a simple daily pattern: a brief walk in natural light, a consistent bedtime routine, and regular feeding times when possible. Over time, this helps your baby distinguish day from night and slowly improves sleep patterns. For parents, a routine also brings a sense of control in a phase that often feels chaotic.
