Kelly Kruger Opens up About Her Pregnancy Weight Gain
As a social media influencer, Kelly Kruger (Eva, THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL; ex-Mac, THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS) gives her followers makeup tutorials, recipe ideas, sales deals, and an inside look at her life raising two-year-old daughter Everleigh with hubby Darin Brooks (Wyatt, B&B). Her most recent Instagram share definitely falls into the latter category as the actress β who is expecting the coupleβs second daughter β opened up in a heartfelt post about coming to terms with the changes sheβs seen in her body during her second pregnancy.
βIn my first pregnancy, I gained over 60 pounds,β Kruger confessed. βI didnβt work out much because I couldnβt, and I wasnβt very active in general. I ate pretty healthy but just made a big baby.β The second time around, Kruger figured her weight gain wouldnβt be as high since entertaining Everleigh every day is a full-time job! βI thought thereβs no way I will gain close to that with this pregnancy because I am so active chasing around a toddler and working,β she admitted. βBut it looks like Iβm still on track to gain it.β
Believe it or not, Kruger views the weight gain as a blessing, as itβs an outward sign of the phenomenon taking place inside her body. βIβll take it,β she continued. βIβm a tiny girl with a tiny frame and itβs a lot of weight to carry around (extra-large, too, for a reason Iβll get into on my stories this week), but I wouldnβt change a thing. Our bodies are incredible. Making these little miracles and then returning to how we were before. Iβm in awe and Iβm just so grateful to be doing this all over again.β
After asking the mothers on her page what their pregnancy looked like, she reminded her followers that each womanβs body is unique when it comes to growing a tiny human. βI know some people gain like 20 pounds and others 80. No matter what, I think itβs important to remember every body is different, every journey is different, and we need to try to refrain from comparing ourselves to others,β Kruger insisted. βJust remember to enjoy these moments. Just sharing some thoughts on this. πππβ
