On December 15th, 2019, at 11 am, Kate Actress welcomed her second child, Baby Karla Njeri Karanja, into the world. In a recent YouTube video, she shared the details of her delivery day, giving her fans a glimpse into the challenges she faced.

According to Kate, she had been craving Chinese or Japanese food the day before her water broke, and she had even gone out for dinner with her family. However, that night, she was feeling funny and lying on the couch, but they went to bed anyway. At around 4 am, her water broke, and she woke up her husband, Phil, to tell him the baby was coming.

Despite her initial pain-free experience, Kate's labor quickly escalated, and she was left in excruciating pain. She remembered watching YouTube videos before the delivery, which advised mothers to 'pounce on the big balls' to reduce pain, but this only made it worse for her. She now has a phobia of these balls.

After a few minutes of intense pain, Baby K was born, and Kate was finally blessed. In a humorous moment, she revealed that she bit Phil as he was trying to calm her down with movie moves. Kate also shared that juggling between her two children has not been easy, but she gives thanks to her husband Phil, who has been very supportive.

She concluded by mentioning that many new mums are not doing okay but with the support and love from friends, family, and partners, all will be well.
