'I Couldn’t Leave My Bed': Kylie Jenner Recalls Her Most Brutal Pregnancy Complications

Kylie Jenner recently opened up about the medical complications she experienced during her second pregnancy.

Jenner and her former husband, rapper Travis Scott, have two children together -- Stormi and Aire.

From sciatica to weight gain, the reality television star and entrepreneur recalled going through a challenging phase while she was pregnant with her son Aire, who was born on February 2, 2022.

During her recent appearance on the Therapuss podcast with Jake Shane, Jenner recalled battling an excruciatingly painful back ache for almost three and a half years as a result of her two pregnancies.

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star said, “I have really bad back issues. I have had chronic back pain for like three-and-a-half years. It's just starting to get better, but my son, my last pregnancy, it like really took me out.”

Jenner recalled being unable to walk around 12 weeks into her second pregnancy.

Further, she remembered battling sciatica and an ugly lower back pain.

The mother of two added, “It's just starting to get better, but my son, my last pregnancy, it really took me out. It was like 12 weeks into the pregnancy, I just woke up one day, and I'm like, 'Oh, I can't really walk'. And I was in the best shape of my life before that pregnancy, so I really had high expectations."

Though she wanted to work out and stay in shape, The Kardashians star said that she had gained 60 pounds while pregnant with her daughter, Stormi, whom she had given birth to in February 2018.

Jenner said during the podcast, “I was 200 pounds when I went in to give birth to my daughter,” adding that she was around 210 pounds while she was pregnant with her second child.

Remembering her weight gain while expecting her son Aire, the Kylie Cosmetics founder added, “I gained like 65 pounds with my son. I was huge.”

She also recalled her dessert cravings during this phase. She told the host, “I ate everything. I ate a pint of ice cream every night. I just dove right in. I ate lots of ice cream, just lots of carbs, bagels, in the beginning. My nausea was horrible with my son, so if I didn't eat it'd be really bad."

When asked which of her pregnancies was easier, Jenner was quick to pick her first one.

The reality television star was almost bedridden during her second pregnancy.

Jenner said, “I couldn't leave my bed anyway because I was like in so much back pain and sciatica pain. And lots of things were happening with my v*****. The guy was three centimeters dilated for like a month and a half, two months. The baby was, like, falling out. My doctor's like, 'You have to stay in bed.'"

According to the National Health Service, sciatica is said to occur when the sciatic nerve, which runs from the lower back through the hips and down each leg, becomes compressed or irritated.

It is characterized by a stinging pain down the back of the leg along with an acute numbness in that area.

Celebrities like Adele, LeBron James and Tiger Woods have also reportedly opened up about suffering from sciatica.
