Kylie Kelce shared the biggest change since becoming a family of 6, and the answer might surprise you.
“It’s not too much,” Kelce said of adding daughter Finnley, 4 months, to the mix. “She’s still at the age where, like most of the time, I just strap her to the front of me and we go anywhere.”
Instead, the podcaster shared, the biggest change is having husband and former NFL star Jason Kelce “tagging in heavy on bedtime.”
“We used to tag team bedtime and now it’s a little bit of like, he’s doing it on his own, which he’s the best at. I think they prefer that,” Kelce said, joking, “[The girls are] like, ‘Mom, why are you even in here? You can get out.’ He gives the best back scratches, and he reads the stories with voices, so he’s way more fun than I am. But that’s really been the biggest change, is bedtime. Dad’s a pro.”
In addition to Finnley, the Kelces share daughters Wyatt, 5, Elliotte, 4, and Bennett, 2.
While Kelce might seem like she’s got parenting all figured out, she recently shared that she’s still not sure she has the “mom gene.”
“I’m still not sure that I have it to be honest,” she said during an episode of the “House of Maher” podcast. “I tell everybody, I’m winging it.”
Kelce was always sure she wanted to be a mother, though.
“I’ve always known that I wanted to have four kids,” she shared. “I would say before motherhood, I was like, ‘Give me all the babies.’ Now that I’m in motherhood, I’m like, ‘Am I doing this right?’ Every day.”

In an episode of her own podcast, “Not Gonna Lie,” she elaborated, saying, “I am still Googling things ‘cause that doesn’t stop either.”
“It’s similar like when people say to me, ‘Well you have four kids, what’s your advice?’ No, I actually still have no idea what I’m doing. We’re all winging it,” Kelce laughed.
While she’s hesitant to give advice, Kelce has shared her thoughts on moms who are afraid of losing their own identities after having kids.
“I think there is a misconception that it wipes out the rest of you and makes you solely mom,” she said in an episode of “Not Gonna Lie.” “I think that the fear that you won’t be able to succeed anymore or you won’t be able to start something new or you won’t be able to have any sort of a life is just not what I experienced. Also, I think that anybody could balance it so that you don’t have to [give up your life].”
With four daughters in the house, Kelce has a lot on her plate these days, but it looks like this mom is more than used to taking each day as it comes — and enjoying every minute.
