After welcoming her son Rocky Thirteen, now six months old, Kourtney Kardashian candidly discussed the emotional challenges mothers face when returning to work. The 45-year-old star of KUWTK shared insights into her experience as she prepared for the fifth season of The Kardashians.
Taking to Instagram on May 4th, Kardashian shared a behind-the-scenes glimpse of her shoot for the show’s promos. In the caption, she revealed, “BTS shooting all the promos for our @kardashianshulu billboards n’ stuff for season 5! I was 3 months postpartum and not feeling quite ready for a big shoot like this where there’s lots and lots of people watching me all day.”
Accompanied by photos of herself in a brown off-the-shoulder dress and stylish waves, Kardashian opened up about the contrast between her glam shoot and the cozy days at home with her baby. She explained, “And even though my baby boy was with me all day on set it’s not the same when I’m covered in makeup, in high heels and wearing a dress versus our snuggly days at home in pajamas.”
However, she shared a positive shift in her mindset, highlighting the blessing of being able to bring her child to work. Despite the challenges, she expressed gratitude for the opportunity to glam up after spending months in pajamas at home.
In a recent comment on a swimsuit photo featuring her sisters Kim and Khloé, Kardashian expressed her appreciation for her body. She remarked, “I LOVE this photo! It is me and my sisters having the best time on a trip with our kids… and the memories to last forever! And I LOVE this body that gave me my 3 big babies and my little baby boy.”
According to a source close to Kardashian, she is embracing her age gracefully and prioritizing self-care. The source shared, “As she’s getting older, things that mattered in the past no longer (matter) to her. She is much kinder to herself, tries not to stress and is very happy with life.”
In sharing her postpartum journey and body positivity, Kardashian continues to inspire her fans with her authenticity and self-love.
