Encantadia star Kylie Padilla shared that she is struggling to recover from post-pregnancy following the birth of her second son.
On July 11, the actress shared some of her hardships while dealing with post-pregnancy recovery and symptoms in an Instagram post.
“So I was feeling out my body, ang hirap kasi ng recovery from giving birth this time round. I could not get out of bed on certain days, headaches, shivers and fatigue,” she said.
“I postponed doing any exercise that would further prolong my recovery. I'm taking it slow. Learning to love how my body has changed, how strong it has remained and how it is slowly healing.
“I'm happy, albeit the days where I feel like I am not entirely myself. I have grown to respect that it will take time because everything good takes time,” she wrote.

Meanwhile, in an interview with 24 Oras in June, Kylie shared that she experienced prenatal depression while pregnant with Axl Romeo.
“Feeling ko, 'yung katawan ko nagre-recover pa. iba iba, e, pero feeling ko nagre-recover pa siya.
"But then 'yung hormones, nu'ng nabuntis ulit ako parang hindi pa siya nag-stabilize tapos umangat, tapos…I don't know how to explain it,” she said.
Kylie gave birth to baby Axl Romeo in December 2019, two years after welcoming her firstborn son Alas in 2017.
