The fact that we don’t know Kylie Jenner’s son’s name is odd to me. I don’t have a problem with parents not sharing their kids’ names nor do I feel like Kylie has to tell us his name. But she did tell us they named him Wolf right away and then made a point of telling us they’d decided not to call him Wolf (a name I love, btw) and then never told us his official name. And we don’t know Khloe’s son’s name either. But they’ve never withheld the girls’ names – it’s all just odd to me.

What unfortunately made sense to me was Kylie’s description of how bad it was for her after she gave birth to her son. She told sister Kendall Jenner this week on The Kardashians that she had the ‘Baby Blues’ following Baby Boy Webster’s birth and cried almost every day for the first three weeks, just like she had after Stormi’s birth. Kylie looked it up and since the symptoms matched how she felt and went away just when the internet said they would, she’s convinced that’s what it was.

Kylie Jenner opened up about experiencing postpartum “baby blues” following the birth of her second child, a son, whose name we still do not know.

“It’s been really hard for me,” Kylie told her older sister Kendall Jenner. “I cried nonstop every day for the first three weeks.”

Kylie explained, “It’s just the baby blues and then it kinda goes away. I had it with Stormi too.”

“Your hormones are probably all over the place,” rationalized Kendall. Kylie responded, “No, I cried for, like, three weeks. Like, every day to the point where I would be laying in bed and my head would just hurt so bad.”

While Kylie didn’t consult an actual doctor, she said a Google search helped her realize she was only having the baby blues, not postpartum depression, because it only lasted for six weeks.

It makes sense to me that Kylie experienced this because I had the Baby Blues too. At least I thought I did. But Kylie defined it as a up to six-week period postpartum and The Mayo Clinic says it’s only a week or two after the baby’s born. Mine was 12 weeks. But then yeah, it just vanished. What neither Kylie nor I did was tell a doctor about our depression and health professionals say you should. So if you are postpartum and feeling empty or crying continuously like Kylie said or feel a sense of despondency for longer than two weeks, consult your doctor. You deserve to feel joy during this time. It’s a horrible and scary feeling that leaves you thinking there’s something wrong with you. There isn’t, you are a good mom – reach out to someone. I’m glad Kylie’s feeling better and has her family to lean on.

I’m also glad Kylie’s talking about embracing her postpartum body. Granted, she looks amazing, but she’s acknowledging her body has changed since birth and that she loves it. I know, I know – it’s the Kardashian-Jenners we’re talking about. But for them, this is progress.
