Kylie Jenner Says Getting Pregnant At 19 Left Her Terrified

Long before she became a mother of two, Kylie Jenner says fear and uncertainty completely took over when she discovered she was pregnant at 19.

The American beauty mogul revisited that chapter of her life during an appearance on the Therapuss podcast with Jake Shane, where she admitted telling her parents turned out to be one of the most difficult parts of the experience.

I was 19 when I got pregnant. I was freaking out. Yeah, I was freaking out. I was really scared to tell my parents.

Even with the fear, Jenner says she already knew the decision she wanted to make.

But there was something just inside of me that knew that I wanted to do this, and I had to make a decision for myself… And even if I have to do this alone, however, this is the choice that I am going to make.

Keeping the pregnancy hidden from the public also took an emotional toll.

Kylie explained that withdrawing from public life in 2017 became her way of protecting herself while carrying the weight of such a huge secret.

Once she finally announced the birth of her daughter Stormi Webster in 2018, the reality of everything she had been holding in hit her all at once.

I sobbed for three hours because it felt like so much weight on my shoulders.

Her second pregnancy with son Aire Webster proved even more physically demanding. Jenner revealed that she struggled with chronic back pain, sciatica and severe mobility issues that often kept her confined to bed.

I could not leave my bed anyway because I was like in so much back pain and Sciatica pain.

The reality star also disclosed that she gained 27 kilograms during her pregnancy with Stormi and 29 kilograms while pregnant with Aire.
