BEHIND THE BUMP: Kaylee Azran - Model + Mama to Be

Hey guys! Today we’re chatting with the stunning Kaylee, who's been modeling with us since 2019!

Kaylee has been here for many special moments, but the launch of our very first maternity legging was one we'll never forget. Timing couldn't have been more perfect, as she is expecting a sweet new baby and was able to debut the Foldover Maternity Legging in real life.

Let's catch up with Kaylee and get the inside scoop on her key to comfort during her pregnancy journey.

When is baby due?

Kaylee: Baby BOY is making his debut December, 2025!

Cravings?

Kaylee: Ice water like it’s liquid gold, and all the carbs. I’ve basically become the queen of avocado toast, and I could eat oranges and grapefruit all day.

Any new pregnancy rituals or things you weren’t expecting?

Kaylee: Now that I’m 6 months along and past the nausea zone of the first trimester, my days include lots of little self-care moments: face masks, belly oils, long walks. I’ve also started incorporating daily pregnancy and birth affirmations, as well as yoga and birth prep movement! What I wasn’t expecting was how much time I’d spend getting dressed. I thought I was slow before pregnancy, but now it feels like an Olympic sport.

How has exercise/movement looked?

Kaylee: Pre-pregnancy I was a total movement junkie. Gym, Lagree, Pilates, hiking, you name it, I was doing it 4 to 6 days a week. Then I saw those two pink lines, and suddenly my workout of choice was couch potato-ing. The first four months, I was just proud of myself for making it through work, school drop-offs, pickups, and home life. Since this is our first baby but not our first child, my priority was giving my loved ones the best, most present version of me. And honestly, Netflix and Hulu carried me through.

Now that I’m in the second trimester with more energy, it feels like I’ve gotten a second wind. I’m back to moving my body in ways that feel good, and actually enjoying it again. That feels like such a gift.

What are you most nervous about?

Kaylee: Those first few days at home after birth. It feels like jumping headfirst into a lake where you cannot see the bottom. Exciting, a little scary, and completely unknown. But I also feel empowered and prepared, and I know I have the best husband and the most incredible village supporting us and cheering us on.

What are you most excited about for this new season?

Kaylee: Watching my daughter step into her role as a big sister, and seeing my husband hold our baby for the first time! Just thinking about it makes me cry happy tears.

Favorite Popflex pieces right now (besides the new leggings, of course)?

I mean, making me choose besides the new leggings is cruel! But okay: lately I’ve been livingggg in the Go With The Flow Jumpsuit. It is like a cozy hug but cute enough to wear anywhere. I am also obsessed with pairing the Perfect Tee with the Ready For Bed Shorts. It is the ultimate comfy-cute combo!

Special thank you to Kaylee for sharing her special journey with us.♡ Check back to meet the rest of the Blogifam soon!
