American soccer player, Kealia Ohai Watt shares how she feels after delivering her child. “As a mother, you don’t really understand how, when you have a baby, how difficult it is. And we’re fortunate enough to have a lot of family and a lot of help, but it’s a huge transition,” Kealia said to People. She explains the transition and changes in herself, “You don’t realize before you have a baby, you’re selfish, and you can do whatever you want — you can go workout, you can go to work and do your job, and your world revolves around you, And when you have a baby that is over, obviously, that’s your number one concern.”
Kealia will be put in a position to adapt her routine accordingly after the baby but explains it is all worth it for the baby. Despite “Why it’s so amazing and makes it all worth it is just seeing this baby that you created grow every day. And you get one smile from him, and you’re like, ‘Oh my gosh, this is all worth it.’”
As parents, Kealia and her partner are so happy for their child, as she says, “J.J. and I always laugh, when Koa will sleep through the night or he’ll eat really well, we are so happy. It’s like, ‘We did it! That’s bigger than our accomplishments.'”
