“Last year went by so quickly. I found out I was pregnant by the end of November 2022. Most of 2023 was around my pregnancy and moving base here in the US. I am very thankful to my mom for being there for me, I couldn’t have done anything without her. I had a few complications so I had to take it easy. I thought I would work during my pregnancy but my doctors asked me to rest it out. It was just a big happy bubble for me. It is just crazy how much your life shifts when you have a child.”
The actress also shared that she suffered from postpartum depression and thanked her partner, Michael Dolan for standing like a strong pillar of strength for her, she said:
“Topics like mom guilt are so real. I remember I was in my room, and I started crying. My partner asked me what was wrong and I told him, ‘I know it sounds really stupid but my son is sleeping in the other room, and I am missing him.’ So, there are these intense emotions you go through after having a baby. I still am going through it. I am thankful that Mike (Michael Dolan) is such an amazing partner. I don’t need to explain things to him. He makes me take a break and looks after the baby before I join in again.”
Even after being a doting mother to Koa, Ileana still reminisces about her pregnancy days. The actress recently took to her Instagram account and shared a throwback picture.
