She added that it was “unrealistic” to be “red-hot and angelic and in a constant state of bliss,” and described herself as a “leprechaun,” “bridge troll,” and “curvy” who “vomits six times a day.” “.
Aside from the “physical aspect,” the eldest daughter of Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger feels like her “brain and mind go to war every day,” and describes the sensation as “mental warfare.”
“‘Just wait until the baby comes, you won’t get any sleep,'” she mimicked what she was told. “Bitch, I’m not sleeping now. KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT. I am exhausted. I’m unmotivated. I feel like life is passing by and my career hasn’t even started.”
The 27-year-old model told her Instagram followers on Wednesday that she was “exhausted,” “unmotivated,” and “vomits six times a day.”
Ireland added that she “would have lost [her] mind” if it weren’t for the support of RAC, 37.
“He’s everything and more to me,” she gushed. However, she admitted that being apart from most of her loved ones was difficult.
“It’s hard not to be really close to family to begin with because they live far away or they’re jerks I don’t want anything to do with,” she wrote. “It’s hard to see others going through this and having their parents around.”

Socially, Ireland feels “alone”, especially scrolling social media and seeing “mutuals dress up for events, get drinks, work on sets, go to school”.
“It’s even harder to watch some of your friends disappear or not know how to deal with you anymore,” she continued. “Especially when all you were to her was a drinking buddy and a good time.”
The model added, “It’s hard when your closest friends have their own issues and you don’t know when it’s a good time to emotionally leave them.”

“This is DIFFICULT,” she reiterated several times, including in her caption, before reminding her fans that “it’s okay to be REAL and post highlight movies” and “it’s okay to be happy and sad at the same time.” “.
She also made sure that “none of that reflects how excited [she is] to be her mother.”
