Lala Kent Opens Up About Missing Being Pregnant in an Emotional Post
The Vanderpump Rules mom is also sharing the details of her birth experience.
Lala Kent can’t help but gush about life as a new mom, but that doesn’t mean that the Vanderpump Rules cast member can't feel a bit nostalgic, too. In a recent Instagram post marking three weeks since she welcomed her baby girl, Ocean Kent Emmett into the world, Lala opened up about her pregnancy and what a wonderful experience it was.
“I was told I would miss this, and I do,” Lala wrote in a caption alongside a photo of her baby bump. “People say ‘enjoy it all, because it goes by so fast.’ They are right. I wish I could freeze time.”
“The birth of my daughter, Ocean, was 3 weeks ago. Today was supposed to be her due date. I feel emotional about it, because it’s over, and it was the most incredible experience of my life,” Lala continued. “From walking into Cedars, to getting induced, to the 6 am cervix check and the nurse saying ‘we are there.’ It was the best. I realize my page has turned into ‘Mom’ content—I’ll get right back to being Lala one day… but right now my identity lies within Ocean. Like who am I and how did I exist before her?”
Lala also recently opened up about the pressure to breastfeed, and the judgement that surrounds the topic.
“I also think it is important to say this: so many people asked me if I was going to breastfeed," Lala wrote in an Instagram caption. "I thought this was a strange question because it’s not that simple. I know many women who struggled—whether the baby didn’t latch, milk wasn’t coming in, or it just wasn’t right for them. I was never married to the idea of breastfeeding because I didn’t want to feel disappointment or shame. That being said, I’m grateful my boobies are producing, but I know my baby is bonded to me regardless of what kind of nipple is in her mouth.”
