Kylie Kelce spoke about the reality of having sex after giving birth and how she views it now, following four children.
Kylie Kelce, the wife of retired NFL star Jason Kelce, recently shared a candid look at what intimacy can be like after having children.
During an episode of the Not Gonna Lie podcast, the mom of four discussed how her relationship with her husband has shifted in the postpartum period.
A large portion of the conversation centered on the fact that she’s nearly a year postpartum after welcoming her youngest daughter, Finn.
With some hesitation, Kylie decided to speak frankly about her experiences having sex after giving birth.
She began: “I’m gonna tell you right now, for anyone who has experienced sex postpartum… are we doing this? We’re doing this. I’m talking about it…
“For anyone who has experienced sex postpartum specifically — I can only speak to after a vaginal birth.
“I’ve had varying experiences. Different for every kid. It’s not all fun and games, guys. It’s not all fun and games the first couple of times you catch my drift.”
She also emphasized that it’s not reasonable to assume everything will immediately feel great once you’ve given birth.
She added: “We can’t be out here like, ‘That was great! What? A human just exited that door.”
Kylie said she feels happy and settled with four kids, though she didn’t completely close the door on the idea of having another.
Explaining how she and Jason approached planning their family, she said: “There was a moment, there was a while when we were choosing to try for what is now Finn, where I kept thinking that I had forgotten a child, like that one was missing.
“I think it had a lot to do with the age that Benny was and the progression because it just felt like I didn’t have a baby with me anymore. Either way [now] it feels very comfy and whole.
“It feels very balanced. I love even numbers. Guys, I’ve told you before, if my last kid gets out of diapers, the shop is closed if you catch my drift. I will say Finny is still just cuddly enough that I do not have an urge for a baby right now,”
She later joked that she prefers to keep her stance a little vague, just in case her body has other plans, adding that she doesn’t want the “university or uterus” to hear her say she’s definitely done.
