American podcaster Kylie Kelce, 33, has expressed her concern over the phrase "bounce back" after pregnancy, finding it problematic due to the unrealistic expectations it creates. In a recent episode of her podcast, Not Gonna Lie, Kelce spoke about the implications of this phrase and the importance of understanding and empathy towards postpartum women.

Kelce, who gave birth to her fourth daughter, Finnley "Finn" Anne, on March 30, 2025, stated that women should not be expected to "bounce back" after childbirth. She clarified that certain aspects of postpartum, such as stretch marks, cannot be "bounced back" from.

The focus on physical recovery post-childbirth, according to Kelce, is problematic and trivialises the true experience and challenges of postpartum recovery. She encourages a shift in perspective towards the holistic well-being of postpartum women, emphasising the importance of focusing on the overall well-being of women rather than their physical appearance.

Kelie Kelce does not want people to make comments about her bouncing back after delivering her fourth baby, whether they are deliberate or unintended. She finds the phrase "bounce back" after pregnancy to be problematic because it implies that women must quickly return to their pre-pregnancy bodies, an expectation she believes is unfair.

During the podcast episode, Kelce highlighted the importance of understanding and empathy towards postpartum women, encouraging listeners to be more mindful of their words and actions when discussing women's bodies after childbirth.

Kelie Kelce is married to Jason Kelce and is the proud mother of four daughters: Wyatt Elizabeth, Elliotte Ray, Bennett Llewellyn, and Finn. Her stance on the matter is that comments, whether intended nicely or not, can be problematic and should be avoided.
