“I’m just trying to be sane and patient.”

For context, Kylie gave birth to her second child with Travis Scott in early February. While the couple initially revealed their son’s name was Wolf, they have since changed it.

Taking to her Instagram Story, Kylie shared a video of her walking on a treadmill with the caption, “Gained 60 pounds again this pregnancy.”
She then shared that she had lost 40 pounds in the three months since giving birth, adding: “I’m just trying to be healthy and patient. Walking/Pilates is my favorite combo.”

People can lose up to 20 pounds soon after birth due to the weight of the baby, placenta and other fluids — but everyone’s weight after birth is different. Additionally, it almost goes without saying that Kylie has access to resources well beyond the average new parent.
This isn’t the first time Kylie has opened up about her postpartum body. In a series of Treadmill Instagram Stories, she said, “We can get on the internet, and it may seem a lot easier to others and put pressure on us, but it wasn’t easy for me either.” She later shared a picture of her son’s feet on her stomach after the birth.

She also spoke with Kylie’s first child, Stormi, about feeling “insecure” about her body on Keeping Up With the Kardashians.
Just three weeks later, Kylie posted about her abs “making a comeback.”
In fact, Kylie was recently called upon to hire her own photographer for her first postpartum red carpet at The Kardashians premiere — which, as a viral TikTok pointed out, would give her more control over the editing of the images.

So it’s worth reiterating that Kylie’s postpartum journey isn’t universal!
