Detailing her experience further Kylie adds that she cried to the point where I d be laying in bed and my head would just hurt so bad

In a confessional she elaborates I m not a doctor but I read on Google that they call it baby blues when it doesn t last past six weeks After about six weeks I started to feel better but I definitely had the case of the blues

But I feel better mentally I m not crying every day so that s great she says I don t have bad days with my body I have bad days mentally

A 2018 episode of her family s former E reality show Keeping Up With the Kardashians captured Kylie feeling insecure with her body as she posed for her first postbirth photo shoot Doing my first few fittings and getting back into it it s kind of hard and discouraging she admitted during a confessional

I want my body to be like my pre-baby Maxim shoot she said during an episode of the former spinoff series Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami I was just running down the beach like I always have been lately And then I just woke up I didn t eat anything this morning Kourt later admitted she was so embarrassed that she d punished her body for a photo shoot

In a similar vein Kim was so focused on losing weight after welcoming her son Saint in 2015 that she purposefully agreed to pose nude on the cover of GQ magazine less than six months after he was born I had just had my second baby she later recalled of the decision I thought I want to feel sexy again I want to feel good about myself and that was what did it for me

Kim described the shoot as a really good goal to motivate her to follow her strict diet perfectly You set a date for a shoot and you know you have to be there she said

And Khloé also spoke publicly about how she dieted shortly after giving birth to her daughter True in 2018 If you re trying to lose a significant amount of weight diet and exercise go hand in hand she said while revealing that she was thrilled to have reached her self-imposed weight vicinity goal
