Kim Kardashian, Kylie Jenner Talk Motherly Anxieties, Who Really Named Stormi
Kylie Jenner and Kim Kardashian West are sharing the challenges of motherhood. The two joined forces for a brand new tell-all interview.
The Kardashian Name Game
Jenner and Kardashian West sat down with the Evening Standard to talk all things baby, having had their daughters just a couple of weeks apart.
Makeup mogul Jenner gave birth to her first child, Stormi, on Feb. 1. Her big sister, meanwhile, had her third child, Chicago, via surrogate on January 15.
The two super-famous ladies opened up about the difficulty of parenting newborns, as well as the inspiration behind their children's names.
Strange names are a Kardashian staple, but how did Jenner straddle the line between weird and downright outrageous?
"I really don't know how we thought of Storm. Her dad [Travis Scott] insisted it was him, but I feel like it was me. ... I didn't really like just Storm -- I didn't feel like that was her name. So then it became Stormi. And it just stuck. I feel like there were a lot of other names that I might have even liked better, to be honest, but I feel like Stormi picked her own name, like it was just her name," the young mother explained.
Loving Every Aspect Of Motherhood
The early stages of being a mother are often the hardest, but for the Kylie Cosmetics founder, they've been great -- although she did admit to suffering sleepless nights, as well as the typical baby blues, particularly in the beginning.
Stormi and Chicago have become fast friends too, with Jenner noting the older girl, who was born just two weeks earlier, already seems more advanced.
Although she kept her pregnancy completely secret and off social media, Jenner acknowledged how much fun it was being pregnant at the same time as older sister Khloe, who gave birth to True Thompson just 10 weeks after Stormi.
"It was so much fun [being pregnant at the same time as Khloé]. We would just experience everything together. I was a little bit ahead of her, so we were both doing it for the first time and I would just like warn her of things that happened," Kylie gushed.
The reality star has grown closer to all her sisters since becoming a mother herself, especially as they can now bond over their kids and parenting.
Finding That Balance
The busy working mother found it difficult to return to her normal duties after the birth of her daughter, however, admitting that it was hard to even leave to go to the interview that morning.
"I think about her all the time, anywhere I am. I would rather be with her or wish she can come everywhere. I can't wait till she can come everywhere with me, because right when she's old enough I'll bring her everywhere," she explained.
The cosmetics mogul is working as hard as she can for the future of her child, noting that everything she does is for Stormi.
Aside from her bond with her daughter, Jenner has found her relationship with rapper boyfriend Travis Scott is doing better, too. The young couple has only been together for a few months when Jenner got pregnant.
An insider revealed earlier this week that the couple is more in love than ever, and that Scott is a fantastic father.
