Five.
51
Oh, my God, did you hear Kylie's in labor?
52
Two.
53
What?
54
Yes.
55
Why aren't you there?
56
What do you mean?
57
Why are you there?
58
She didn't want me there.
59
She really wanted me there.
60
I mean, she didn't tell me to come there.
61
I know, she planned it with me to have me there, but then she asked me, and I was like, well, I think Chloe is, like, a better delivery room person.
62
Wait, I didn't know she is.
63
I don't have my phone on me.
64
If she really wanted you there, then she would invite you there.
65
No, I know, but, like, I had no idea she was in labor.
66
I had no idea she was in labor.
67
Right.
68
But don't act like, oh, she really wanted me there, because you would be there if she really wanted you there.
69
Okay, it's not a fight over who she wants in the delivery room.
70
No, but I think it is, because you're trying to be like, oh, she really wanted me.
71
She wanted me there, and I said, Chloe is the one.
72
So she must have picked Chloe over me.
73
Yeah.
74
Kylie is about to have her baby, and it's pretty crazy that it really hasn't been confirmed.
75
So I don't want to be the one with the info or getting blamed for, you know, someone finding out the secret.
76
I'll go to the hospital right after.
77
By the way, Northston, they're eating candies.
78
Stop, I know.
79
Oh, stop.
80
Girl, that's enough candy.
81
I heard you've been eating so much candy.
82
No, no, no, we have dinner soon.
83
We'll have some later.
84
No, no, no, too much candy.
85
The cavity bugs will come, and all your teeth will fall out, and it'll just be so bad.
86
What?
87
Candy.
88
Okay, ready?
89
I want to.
90
Last step.
91
I think Kylie wants you to bring Chicago over and take a photo with the two of them.
92
I know.
93
But I told her.
94
I was going to yesterday, and then I just got tired.
95
But can you believe that Kylie got out of the hospital with not one report?
96
I know.
97
That's amazing.
98
And now Caitlyn can never say we have big mouths and we leak everything.
99
We kept that a secret.
100
I mean, that was a lot of anxiety for me.
101
It was crazy.
102
It was like people were saying, we're going to post if, you know, we're going to announce this.
103
And I'm like, no, but she did it perfect it was such a positive experience
104

106
a couple days since kylie had baby stormy i can already tell
107
that kylie is going to be the most amazing mom and is so in love with her baby
108
Kylie's always wanted to be a mom, so this is really exciting for her.
109
She just didn't want anyone changing her happy moment and her happy pregnancy.
110
So I'm really proud of her that she stuck to her guns and was able to tell her story her way.
111
How did she do for her labor?
112
She did really, really well.
113
And she just kept saying, I just don't feel any pain.
114
And you'd see these contractions like crazy.
115
And she would go, I just, I'm not feeling it.
116
And I'm like, this is really weird.
117
She was such a trooper.
118
She really was.
119

161
Today was actually the first day that I felt like I could take her bed out of my room.
162

163
But now, whenever I come back from Cleveland, I'll have a baby.
164
I'm grateful.
165
Gabbana left me at a time where she knew I wouldn't be alone.
166
Have you seen the facilities yet where you're giving birth?
167
No. Don't go see them in advance.
168
Why?
169
Because it's not a good idea.
170
You know what the rooms look like.
171
I'm not giving birth at Cedars.

What is the Shadowing Technique?

Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
