Kylie Jenner detailed how her second pregnancy was decidedly more difficult than her first.
Jenner appeared on the Wednesday, May 13 episode of Jake Shane's podcast, Therapuss, where she opened up about being pregnant with her younger child, Aire Webster.
The Kylie Cosmetics founder, 28, explained that she's been struggling with back pain for the past three and a half years, but the pain worsened when she was pregnant with Aire. She said that she woke up one day at 12 weeks pregnant and couldn't walk.
"I had crazy sciatica pain and crazy lower back pain," Jenner shared, before adding she had "high expectations" of the pregnancy, because she was in the "best shape" of her life. "I really wanted to work out," she continued.
She noted that when she was pregnant with her first baby, Stormi, she gained 60 pounds, weighing 200 pounds when she gave birth. While carrying Aire, she gained 65 pounds, leading her to weigh 210 pounds at his birth. Jenner shares Aire, 4, and Stormi, 8, with ex Travis Scott.
She explained that her "nausea was horrible" when she was pregnant with Aire, and if she didn't eat, it would be "really bad," confessing that she "ate everything."
"I ate a pint of ice cream every night — I just dove right in,” she said. "I had lots of ice cream. Just lots of carbs. Bagels."

She told Shane, 26, that her pregnancy with Stormi was much easier and more of a "breeze."
Jenner explained that while pregnant with Aire, there were times she couldn't leave her bed, "because I was in so much back pain and sciatica pain."
"And lots of things were happening with my vagina," she continued. "I was three centimeters dilated for like a month and a half, two months, the baby was falling out," she said, adding that her doctor instructed her to stay in bed.
She also recalled initially "freaking out" when she found out she was pregnant with Stormi at 19. "I was freaking out. I was really scared to tell my parents," she confessed. "I was really scared." She later said that once she told her parents, "no one was mad."
"But there was something just inside of me that knew that I wanted to do this, and I had to make a decision for myself," Jenner said. "And even if I have to do this alone, or however, this is the choice that I'm going to make."

Jenner opened up about deciding to keep her first pregnancy a secret from the public and the paparazzi. "I really didn't leave the house. I felt like at the time, you know, reflecting back to it, I felt like I was protecting myself. And I was in a way," she said.
She noted how after she announced the news, she "sobbed for three hours because it felt like so much weight on my shoulders."
"[It was] just a big thing that I was, hiding from the world. And I was worried about everyone's reactions," Jenner said. "It was just so emotional. And I'm like, 'Maybe next time I wouldn't do that.' "
