Kylie Jenner recalls struggles from postpartum days: I felt like such a failure

Kylie Jenner, 27-year-old beauty tycoon, recently opened up about her struggles with postpartum depression. After giving birth to her children, Stormi and Aire, she battled emotional turmoil for nearly a year. Speaking to British Vogue, Kylie described the period as "mentally and hormonally challenging," especially with her second child.

Kylie, who has 2 children with her ex-Travis Scott , said, “I’m going to be 27, and I’m finally feeling like myself again. And [looking back] I think, being pregnant, I wore sweatpants every day, I didn’t have time to figure out even some of the little things in my life, and then postpartum lasted a year.”

One poignant aspect of her struggle was the difficulty in naming her son. She tearfully confided in her mother, feeling like a failure for not being able to decide on a name immediately.“On the phone with my mom all day hysterically crying, saying, ‘I can’t figure out his name,” The hormonal changes during pregnancy and postpartum made decision-making nearly impossible, leading Kylie to advise pregnant friends to choose baby names in advance. Kylie, the billionaire entrepreneur, expressed profound regret for not being able to name her son immediately. “I felt like such a failure that I couldn’t name him. He deserved so much more than that. It just really triggered me,” Kylie said.


Initially, her second son was known as Knight and briefly as Wolf Jacques. However, after receiving feedback and experiencing uncertainty, she announced on Instagram that the name “Wolf” no longer suited him. In January 2023, Kylie shared that her son has been named 'Aire'.
