Kylie Kelce Advocates for Diverse Birth Experiences on Podcast
Kylie Kelce’s Podcast Insights
In a recent episode of her podcast, “Not Gonna Lie,” expectant mother Kylie Kelce addressed the criticism surrounding various birthing methods, particularly the use of epidurals and C-sections. As she prepares for her fourth child with husband Jason, Kelce emphasized the importance of respecting individual birth choices.
Embracing Medicated Births
Kylie Kelce, noting that she plans to receive an epidural, humorously remarked, “I just want a fat needle in my back.” She firmly responded to those who belittle medicated births: “People who dismiss birth with an epidural as being not a true birth experience, I can promise you from the bottom of my heart, I felt every part of labor.”
Defending C-Sections
Kelce did not hold back when discussing the stigma surrounding C-sections, urging critics to reconsider their views. “I’m trying to be nice. No, never mind. Go fuck yourself. You can kindly fuck right off,” she stated, emphasizing that such surgeries can be crucial for the health of both mother and child.
She further acknowledged the complexities involved in cesarean deliveries, defining them as “massive abdominal surgery” that should not be dismissed lightly. “That is horrific. I dare you to say that within earshot of me,” she asserted, defending the choices made by mothers in similar situations.
A Personal Connection to Birth Choices
Kylie shared her own birth story, explaining that she was delivered via C-section due to her size. “You think that when I was 12 pounds, one ounce and I had to come out the front in on my 5-foot-2 mother that she didn’t experience birth?” she questioned, expressing strong sentiments in honor of her mother’s choices.
Preparing for Her Fourth Child
As she anticipates the arrival of her daughter, Kelce revealed that her labor preparations include simple entertainment tactics, such as watching shows while awaiting delivery. She expressed her confidence in following medical professionals’ advice, demonstrating her trust in labor and delivery nurses, whom she believes are “angels that have descended from heaven.”
On a lighter note, she shared her method for inducing labor: sprinting, stating, “I’ve said it multiple times to anyone that I’ve spoken to. I’m doing sprints next week. You can’t stop me.”
