‘My midwife is like you’re going to have to eat at least 4,000 calories a day, which is a hell of a lot of food. When you don’t have time, the last thing you’re thinking about is meals.’
Iskra went on to describe some of her symptoms, shortly after giving birth.
While she didn’t tear because she did vaginal exercises, the model said she was suffering from lots of bleeding- something she didn’t know about and wasn’t prepared for.
‘I keep on bleeding. Things would keep on coming on out of your body,’ she said.
