Here's the actual reel from IG/@emily.b.lemoine, which discussed the nutrition a mother requires post-pregnancy. It was captioned:

"IYKYK..The breastfeeding hunger is like no other 🤗..."

A lactating mother has to take care of nutrition and remain well-fed. During her last two months of pregnancy, Deiondra frequently updated her 375K IG followers about how much weight she gained. It wasn't an easy journey to motherhood for Coach Prime's daughter.

Deiondra Sanders' pregnancy complications led to C-Section

There’s no denying that Deiondra had her fair share of challenges leading up to the birth of her first child with R&B singer Jacquees. While the Sanders family often makes headlines, this time it was Deiondra's pregnancy and her struggles that took center stage.

She has faced multiple miscarriages and was diagnosed with fibroids, a condition that led to complications during her pregnancy. To address the issue, Deiondra underwent myomectomies, a surgical procedure to remove fibroids.

She did everything in her power but ultimately had to deliver her baby via C-section. The Colorado coach's daughter talked about this emotional ordeal on social media, sharing both her struggles and triumphs.

After her delivery, the new mom stunned IG in a chic white outfit, showing off her post-pregnancy transformation.

"Trying to feel sexy again has been a journey. Motherhood has brought out a whirlwind of emotions about myself and my body...," Deiondra captioned.

However, she reminded her followers that behind the glam was a painful journey, with the aid of a pain-reliever belt to manage her discomfort.

Still, all the pain was worth it when she welcomed her baby boy. Deiondra expressed her gratitude with a heartfelt "Thank you, Jesus," celebrating the miracle of motherhood.
