Kylie Jenner reflects on toughest phase of pregnancy journey

Kylie Jenner has spoken openly about how her second pregnancy with son Aire was significantly more difficult than her first experience of motherhood.

Speaking recently, the businesswoman told, “I had crazy sciatica pain and crazy lower back pain,” explaining that despite being in the “best shape” of her life, her condition worsened drastically by 12 weeks.

On Wednesday, May 13, on Jake Shane’s Therapuss podcast, the 28-year-old noted that persistent nausea, weight gain and extreme discomfort left her bedridden for extended periods.

"I ate a pint of ice cream every night — I just dove right in. I had lots of ice cream. Just lots of carbs. Bagels."

Moreover, she disclosed frightening medical challenges later in the pregnancy, saying,

"And lots of things were happening with my vagina. I was three centimeters dilated for like a month and a half, two months, the baby was falling out."

Meanwhile her pregnancy with daughter Stormi felt easier, she admitted her first pregnancy at 19 initially left her overwhelmed and fearful, noting,

"I was freaking out. I was really scared to tell my parents."

Additionally, Kylie reflected on the strain of keeping Stormi’s pregnancy secret, saying she was overcome with emotion and “sobbed for three hours” after the reveal.
