Kylie Kelce is opening up about why she thinks it's important to share the realities of both pregnancy and postpartum.
In a bonus clip shared from her podcast Not Gonna Lie that was posted to YouTube on Monday, April 7, the newly minted mom of four, 33, shared that she's received a lot of praise from women who watch her show who commend her for being open about how she's feeling during her pregnancy.
"I do think that there are a number of women, who [appreciate] me having certain discussions on the podcast, being open to have discussions about my pregnancy experience and the fact that I don't actually care to be pregnant, that it's actually sort of that same dual-experience of they're not dependent of each other — that I'm super grateful to be able to get pregnant, but I do not enjoy being pregnant," Kylie says.

"The same idea of you can have these thoughts and feelings, you can have these anxious moments, you can have this rage – experience this range of emotion, or even a step further, an actual mood disorder postpartum, but you can still love your child and be happy that your child is here and be happy to be a mother and to be grateful for the experience," she continues.
"And I think that it's so important for women to hear that specifically because there is still that immense amount of guilt associated with the fact that you would even think, 'What would happen if,' or that you aren't finding joy in every day life, or it feels redundant that you get up every day and you do breakfast, and you do this, and you do that, and it's the same routine every [day]," the mom of four goes on. "And so I think that the idea of encouraging women to speak out when they're having those moments, the liberating feeling will be worth it."
Kylie and husband Jason Kelce are parents to four daughters — Finnley "Finn," 9 days, Bennett, 2, Elliotte, 4, and Wyatt, 5.

In another bonus clip from her podcast, Kylie revealed that she doesn't love receiving push presents. In fact, she's not a huge fan of getting presents at all.
"I am not necessarily a fan of a push present. I think it's very sweet to do a little postpartum meal like that sushi platter. Jason did try to get me sushi yesterday when we came home but our favorite sushi spot was not open yesterday," she said. "So we're probably going to do it today or tomorrow. Oh I forgot about that, that's exciting."
Although she doesn't necessarily want a present for giving birth to her baby, Kylie did say that there's one present she loved that she received from her Jason after giving birth to their first daughter, Wyatt.
"I will say Jason got me one of my favorite pieces of jewelry that I have ever gotten, which is this…I believe it's called an itty bitty initial necklace from Zoë Chicco," Kylie shared. "And it just has a little W on it, it's a very dainty little chain. It has a W and then a diamond, and it's offset."
"I wear this all the time. I actually still wear it, and it was a push present for Wyatt. To be clear, I do know that we're on our fourth kid. So I have switched to saying that the W counts for Wyatt and it now counts for Winnie, it's fine."
