Pregnant Kourtney Kardashian Breaks Silence On Her 'Urgent Fetal Surgery': 'I Wasn't Prepared for the Fear'

Kourtney Kardashian opened up about her recent hospital stay for the first time in an emotional new post, and our hearts are breaking for her.

The pregnant mom-of-three is currently pregnant with her first baby with husband Travis Barker. She shares a black-and-white photo of the couple holding hands in the hospital. Kardashian is wearing a hospital bracelet with an IV in her wrist, and you can see her bare baby bump with a band-aid in the photo. In her post, she revealed that she had to have “urgent fetal surgery.”

“I will be forever grateful to my incredible doctors for saving our babies [sic] life,” she wrote on Instagram. “I am eternally grateful to my husband who rushed to my side from tour to be with me in the hospital and take care of me afterwards, my rock. And to my mom, thank you for holding my hand through this.”

She went on, “As someone who has had three really easy pregnancies in the past, I wasn’t prepared for the fear of rushing into urgent fetal surgery. I don’t think anyone who hasn’t been through a similar situation can begin to understand that feeling of fear.”

“I have a whole new understanding and respect for the mamas who have had to fight for their babies while pregnant,” she said. The Lemme founder also thanked God in the post and shared that she felt blessed to be able to leave the hospital “with my baby boy in my tummy and safe.”
