Kourtney Kardashian Barker recently shared a scary moment from her life during the season 5 premiere of “The Kardashians.” The 45-year-old mom of four revealed that she underwent emergency fetal surgery last summer before welcoming baby Rocky Thirteen.
In a candid discussion, Kardashian Barker explained that a high-risk doctor discovered something concerning during a routine scan and recommended fetal surgery. This news was especially frightening as her husband, Travis Barker, was about to leave for his Blink-182 tour.
After the surgery, Kardashian Barker expressed her gratitude for the doctors who made crucial decisions to save their baby. She acknowledged the trauma of the experience but relied on her “superpower” to remain calm in emergency situations.
The reality star also opened up about her decision to share her journey on social media, emphasizing the importance of raising awareness and destigmatizing such experiences. She reassured her followers that there was nothing she did wrong, and that the situation was a super rare occurrence.
Following the surgery, Kardashian Barker found herself on bed rest due to a hole in the amniotic sac from the procedure. She is strictly following her doctor’s orders and focusing on her recovery.
Fans can catch new episodes of “The Kardashians” on Hulu, where more updates on Kardashian Barker’s journey may unfold.
