"I wasn't uncomfortable": Kylie Kelce reveals her worst pregnancy symptom as she prepares to welcome baby No. 4

Kylie Kelce is embracing the final stretch of her fourth pregnancy with honesty and humor. The wife of former NFL star Jason Kelce has been open about the challenges she’s facing, revealing that insomnia has been one of the toughest symptoms to deal with.

In a recent episode of the Not Gonna Lie podcast, she candidly shared her sleepless nights, recounting how Jason often wakes up to find her still wide awake. “One of the worst ones is my insomnia,” she admitted in a clip released on March 24. “The other night, probably four different times, Jason rolled over and said, ‘What are you doing? Why are you awake?’ I was awake from 2 a.m. until 6:30 a.m. for no reason whatsoever.”
“I couldn’t tell you a single reason. I wasn’t uncomfortable. She wasn’t doing flips. I didn’t have reflux at that moment. I couldn’t tell you why I couldn’t sleep, but for 4½ hours it was just me, myself, my thoughts, which is lovely. Just lovely,” she continued.

Despite the exhaustion, Kylie found humor in the situation, sarcastically describing her 15-minute nap before her alarm went off as a “power nap.” At one point, she even considered doing laundry in the middle of the night but ultimately decided against it, attempting in vain to will herself to sleep instead.
Beyond the sleepless nights, Kylie has also experienced the frustrating inability to take deep breaths, a symptom she remembers from her previous pregnancies. “I also can’t really get a good breath, specifically when I’m sitting,” she shared, demonstrating how she has to lean back just to breathe properly.
Another challenge has been her limited appetite, thanks to baby No. 4 taking up space in her stomach. “For a little while, her butt was so high up in my stomach that I would sit down with a plate of food, take four bites and then not be able to take a fifth bite,” she explained. For someone who loves food, this has been particularly frustrating. “That actually pissed me off,” she joked.
Despite the struggles, Kylie still has pregnancy cravings, particularly for spicy foods. She humorously expressed her disappointment about not being able to indulge in dishes loaded with heat, saying, “I can’t because I would then breathe fire for three days. It’s the miracle of life. So beautiful.” Some of her favorite cravings have included tortilla chips with Hank’s hot sauce and avocado, along with chicken tacos topped with spicy salsa.
With the baby’s arrival nearing, Kylie is taking a relaxed approach, admitting that she’s “winging” this pregnancy and waiting for the baby to arrive on her own time. The Kelces announced in November 2024 that they were expecting their fourth daughter, joining their three other girls—Wyatt, Elliotte, and Bennett.
Jason Kelce has been thrilled about expanding their family. “It’s been such a blessing to have three healthy, smart, wonderful children. And hopefully we’ll welcome a fourth into this world, and we’ll be able to watch them fight and tear each other apart and all the good stuff,” he said in an interview with E! News.
When it comes to choosing a name for their fourth daughter, Kylie hinted at a pattern they’ve followed with their previous children, opting for gender-neutral names. “I feel like we have to lean a little bit towards those sort of gender-neutral names for our fourth because we have Wyatt, Elliotte, Bennett,” she explained on her podcast in January. However, she didn’t reveal any specific names they have in mind.
