Kylie Padilla on the difficult recovery after giving birth to second child: 'I was feeling out my body'

Kylie Padilla admitted that she had a difficult time recovering after giving birth to Baby Axl last December.

Posting a mirror selfie that showed her body wrapped in nothing but a black sports bra and leggings, the Kapuso actress said she "was feeling out my body, ang hirap kasi ng recovery from giving birth this time round." 

Kylie revealed she "could not get out of bed on certain days" and feeling "headaches, shivers and fatigue."

Given the challenges she went through postpartum, Kylie decided to postpone doing any exercise that she said would further prolong her recovery.

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. So 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. Thank you @issavibe_ph for this workout outfit.

Despite days where she feels she's not entirely herself, Kylie said she feels happy nevertheless.
