Kelly Rowland has made quite the name for herself over the years, being a veteran in one of the most talked about and successful girl groups ever; and that success continued to follow as she spread her wings in her own solo career. So, you might ask – Is there anything else the former Destiny’s Child veteran and “Kisses Down Low” singer hopes to accomplish? Well, outside of being a mother; you can now add author to the song bird’s name.

Rowland, who gave birth to son Titan Jewel in 2014, penned a new book titled Whoa, Baby!, which chronicles her experiences and questions after giving birth to her son. Rowland becomes very candid about her boobs and the intense emotions she felt after looking at herself down there for the first time after giving birth.

“I could hardly sit down on a wood chair without letting out a shriek of pain … Had giving birth actually ruined my vagina for life?” she said. “I made the mistake of getting out a mirror and trying to study the situation. Talk about the world’s worst idea! When I finally caught a glimpse of the orifice that was causing me so much pain and sorrow, I almost screamed out loud. That bloody battlefield was my vagina? Was I going to look like that forever? Would Tim ever want to come near that nasty scene again?”

According to People, Rowland stated that after many “after” calls to her OB/GYN Dr. Tristan Bickman, Rowland was informed that most patients seem to have more questions after birth than during birth, and how someone should write a book about it. That comment sparked something in Rowland, who decided to follow the doctor’s suggestion and write a book for moms surrounding the many questions they might have concerning their body post-birth. So, with the help of her doctor, Kelly got to work and started journaling everything that happened to her emotionally, physically, and spiritually after she gave birth.
