Nasty C on weight gain following birth of baby: "This doesn't make me insecure at all"
Nasty C is loving his new look as a father...
Many parents gain weight during pregnancy and might struggle to shed it off after the baby is born.
Although it is common for women to gain extra weight because of carrying the baby in their tummy and having to essentially eat for two, surprisingly, even their partners might put on some extra kilos.
Some men even go as far as suffering from couvade syndrome, a condition when a man experiences pregnancy symptoms along with his pregnant partner.
'About half of all expectant dads gain weight—up to 30 pounds—during their partners' pregnancies', states Wall Street Journal.
Nasty C is one father who has gained weight after his partner, Sammie, welcomed their son Oliver. The rapper first spoke about the birth of his son at the launch of his 'African Throne World Tour' with Cassper Nyovest in August, revealing that his son was born two months ago.

“I love myself and I'm happy. I look great," he said in the video.
He went on to emphasise that he isn't suffering from insecurities.
Touching his pot belly, Nasty insisted: "I'm a strong black man, a strong father. This doesn't make me insecure at all. In fact it makes me very confident."
