I’m glad I was right about one thing – Kim Kardashian just gave birth weeks before her alleged due date. Everyone had claimed that Kim was due mid-July, with Us Weekly even saying that Kim and Duchess Kate were due on the same day. But Kim has been looking ready to pop for a while, by which I mean she looked really uncomfortable and her face seemed to telegraph “Get this thing out of me NOW.” And now it’s happened. Kim gave birth today in LA. Kanye was… by her side…?
Baby Kimye is here! Kim Kardashian gave birth to a baby girl at Cedars Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles Saturday, E! News has confirmed.
A source tells E! News Kanye was right by Kim’s side during the delivery.
This is the first child for the 32-year-old Keeping Up With the Kardashians star and her boyfriend Kanye West, who announced just a couple of weeks ago that they were expecting a baby girl.
The duo has had quite the romance since going public with their relationship (and locking lips) at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival.After canoodling around the globe, the couple confirmed just months later on Dec. 30 that they were expecting their first child together, after Kanye spilled the news on stage during his concert in Atlantic City.
On the season premiere of Keeping Up With the Kardashians June 2 (the same day as Kim’s baby shower), Kim revealed their baby’s gender. Congrats!
Last I heard, Kanye was back in Europe, but I guess I heard wrong. Us Weekly says that Kanye was scheduled to make an appearance at his record release party in LA on Friday night and he didn’t show up. Apparently, Kim “felt ill” last night and then she went into labor, and Kanye was by her side the whole time. Huh. Well… at least she got that. I mean that in a nice way. After all of the shenanigans with traveling and different time zones and different continents, I’m really glad Kanye was at least at the birth of his first child. And hopefully all is good. For the sake of the baby, y’all, let’s not be too harsh.
Oh, and for what it’s worth, TMZ is reporting that Kim had a “natural birth” and that the baby came five weeks early.

I’m skeptical about the “early” part, but at least everything appears to have gone smoothly. I hope they release the name soon. Is it terrible I’m hoping it’ll be something like C(K)ristal?
I’m slightly skeptical, too. Only because when I went into labor 6 weeks early, they used Procardia to stop the labor so they could give me steroid shots to make sure the baby’s lungs were developed. Perhaps they couldn’t stop her labor for whatever reason. Or maybe she was truly sick. As swollen as she was, I was worried about toxemia. As much as I don’t like her, I still wouldn’t wish harm on her or her baby. So, I’m glad they are both well.
She just lied about the due date, it was so obvious she was about to pop, I’m sure the baby isn’t a 5-week premie.
Nina, that’s certainly an option, too.
Come on people!! Kim was getting really fat, in her mind, and didn’t want to go another month. Had a C section on a date to correspond when Kanye would be here. Also, Kris believes there will be more money paid for the first baby photos if they are not competing with Will and Kate’s delivery. Yes, and Kanye does not want to sell the photos but Kris and Kim really do!!
According to USA Today’s site this morning, sources say the baby weighed under five pounds.
I think Kim scheduled everything. Maybe not but it is a possibility. If the baby is less than five pounds with a normal size mother and extra large father than I think the baby is early. Otherwise it would be six plus I think….Kim said she wanted a C section and was so longing to get her old body back. I am not sure that the law allows a C setion a whole month erly but maybe..
@Layale Same thing happened to me, but at 33 weeks. It was scary. Thankfully, they were able to stop the contractions and I delivered with no issues 1 day shy of 39 weeks. 🙂
celebrities allegedly have c-sections early to avoid the weight gain that comes with the 9th month. However, when I was talking to my Mom about it she pretty much said I was crazy because what mother would put their child in jeopardy by doing that…
I’m still pulling for “East West” or something equally as campy.
Oh, no, it has to follow the K trend. How about Knorth? 🙂
Seriously, tho, hopefully the baby is doing well. Okay, fine, and the mommy too.
Knorth West.
Silent K, campy nam. Best of both worlds.
Didn’t she say she liked Easton when she was on Leno?
It’s the Baby Yeezus.
@Belle omg I just choked on my coffee. Awesome.
the baby Yeezus … LMAO
Or she persuaded some dr. To induce so she could have it in time for Father’s Day
Totally agree – my suspicion is that the delivery date was planned for Kim’s convenience. She was clearly tired of being pregnant (but so is almost everyone in the late third trimester!) and Kanye was around. She couldn’t chance that he wouldn’t be there if the baby came at her own time.
Eh, she was 36+ weeks pregnant, if July 11th was her actual due date, and 37 weeks is considered full term.
But since her due date changed a couple times, by her own admission in interviews, I doubt this baby was actually “early.”
There was no way she was making it to mid-July. At least we’ll get a break from every thing this baby does in a month when Kate has her kid. Thank God for small favors.
Call me crazy but I’d like to see photographic proof he was at the hospital. Guy just seems so disinterested. I would hope they would name the baby Dottie (Dorothy) after late mother but I doubt a Kardashian would go for that kind of name.
i bet korothy made the short list though
LOVE IT.
Ahaha!
Kanye’s mother’s name was Donda, not Dorothy. I wouldn’t be surprised if that was the baby’s name. Kanye had a very very close relationship with his mother and is still in pretty serious grief over her death, even six years later.
krisonda!
i can see pmk cockblocking it with her own name
I hope they name her Donda, that would be so sweet I might cut them both a little slack.
The Kardashian’s are WAY too shallow to choose a name like Donda. Not part of the Kardashian “K” brand.
kanye is so going to be all over his kid lol
he’s too full of himself to not be there for his offspring. he’s gonna love dressing her
he’s around for his little girl though, not kim
IF she was normal she would compromise over something like Donna or Dana etc, in remembrance of his mother but since we’re talking about a Kardashian, her name will probably me Kandice.
Congrats hope baby is healthy!!!!
Hope the baby is healthy. Glad Kanye was by her side.
Congratulations to them. A healthy baby is always a blessing.
Being so sweet makes my teeth hurt
^ made me laugh. It’s strange. I absolutely loathe this couple, I see them as almost everything that’s wrong with our society. But a new baby just makes me hope that they’ll get themselves together, reshuffle their priorities, and…and… Oh, who am I kidding? Good luck, little baby.
Totally agree with you. I loathe Kim/Kanye (more than that, Kris Jenner and her insufferable stage mother thing) but I hope maybe this little girl gives them the dose of reality they need to adjust…
oh who am I kidding? It’s leather kilts for everyone, I’m sure, but I can hope.
+1
LOL. Yeah, I wouldn’t say anything bad about them too, today. Congrats for them!
Hope the baby is fine!
Honestly, I doubt that she went in to labor on her own. Im willing to bet that she was planning on being induced early the whole time because pregnancy does the most damage to your body in the last few weeks, and it makes it almost impossible to go back to how you looked before. Kim is vapid and vain, I wouldnt put that past her even for a second.
To be fair, pregnancy was not kind to Kim’s body for quite a while. If I were in her shoes (which I wouldn’t be, considering they’re stilettos & it looked like she was shoving a marshmallow into a thimble), I can’t guarantee I wouldn’t consider it (if it was healthy for the baby, of course).
“Marshmallows into a thimble.” I love it.
“Marshmallows into a thimble.” +2 lollolol!
Except it’s never healthy for the baby to be delivered early. It was thought for a while that a few weeks (although less than 5) was okay, but recent research is shown that even a few weeks lead to worse outcomes for the baby (and later child). Not surprised that Kim would choose herself over what is best for the kid.
A doctor could have his/her licence taken away for doing something like that. If there is no medical reason for an early birth I would doubt any doctor would do that. Not to mention the insurance nightmare for the hospital if anything went wrong as a result.
I read elsewhere that she had a c-section. I don’t really trust TMZ for KK stories; they are usually incredibly skewed to the Kardashian point of view. Even if it wasn’t a c-section, I doubt Kim has what it takes for anything “all natural.”
Jenny – in technical terms, all vaginal births are called “natural birth” as opposed to c-sections being a “surgical birth”.
I can’t imagine any doctor agreeing to that. Most are okay with 39 weeks for just an induction for no medical reason.
and doctors never do anything they are not supposed, said Michael Jackson’s doctor!
It seems like LA doctors can do what they want. I mean they give out medicine like it is candy to celebs and look what happened to micheal Jackson? I believe there are doctors who would and do perform c-sections early just so mommy doesn’t get any fatter than necessary. Not sure if this is the case with Kim but since that’s all they do is lie I am not necessarily going to believe the story they out automatically.
Jenny
She “dropped” within the week and the baby was coming. And pregnancy was not kind to hera i’m sure she wanted to just give birth and end the pain.
And i’ve read Kim had a c-section too. These publications are either days old in the article or about as credible as The Sun. She dropped, was very pregnant, and sometimes the baby comes early and still is to term with it’s development.
Doctors in LA do it and they document some “medical reason”. She had swelling ( there is a technical term)
Being a Doc, I am agreeing with you on all points!!!
…but then again…for some docs everything comes with a price-tag…
yet some goofball stuffed an entire village into the chronically unemployed and super crazy octomom
Lisa- “Octomom” wasn’t chronically unemployed. She quite sensibly went to college after being injured on the job and was in grad school working on a master’s. If the 8 had been 1 , she would have been able to support all her kids after getting her degree, which was in a field with good job prospects. The doctor made a huge mistake since there were signs that her problem maintaining a pregnancy was normalizing (she had twins in the previous treatment) and because of the risk of splitting (identical twins). Her approach to getting the large family she wanted was quite unusuall, but she was certainly a methodical planner. In her use of government assistance and academic subsidies, she did nothing different from other grad students. The difficult birth and the internet-fueled hatred and people naively yammering to split her family up in foster care/adoption and the financial pressures have taken their toll. I have never seen such awful treatment of a parent of multiples- the woman was getting death threats while in the hospital. In olden days, such things were done by snailmail (one mother estimated that 10% of their mail was vitriolic) and not publicized to fuel the flames like today. A blogger speculates something bad about her, with no basis at all, and within 24 hours it’s being repeated endlessly as gospel truth.
sorry but in my opinion octomom was chronically unemployed and financially irresponsible
you can put a sprig of baby’s breath on a turd but it was still turd. considering the length of time it was taking her to get those degrees, she was taking a very leisurely approach while on the government’s tit.
A few days to induce is one thing but several weeks really increases medical risks to both the baby and mother. Unless Kim’s doctor is a quack I doubt he/she would do that. More importantly I doubt Kim would risk her life or the baby’s just because she’s tired.
she may have been induced if she developed high blood pressure or pre-eclampsia and baby was at risk
I don’t think KK is so selfish that she would risk her or her unborn baby’s life because she was over being pregnant. It’s more likely she was induced due to pre-eclampsia or she lied about the due date.
My best friend delivered her first child via C-section 4 weeks early due to severe pre-eclampsia – they won’t let you push because of the risk of stroke/aneurysm. The baby was in NICU for just over three weeks because her lungs weren’t developed enough and she wasn’t eating. I don’t think for one second that Kim went “early.”
supposedly Heidi Klum induced a few weeks early to lose weight faster for all her pregnancies as well. the right/wrong dr can be bought right???
I know there are really horrible doctors out there. Giving drugs to an adult isn’t the same as putting an infants life in danger. At least not to me.
But y’all are just assuming she did that to save her body. Honestly I figured she will laser off the stretch marks and do who knows what once the baby was born.
I don’t believe Heidi induced early, she loves her kids and would not risk their health that way.
Planned C-section for sure. TMZ is on the Kardashian payroll.
Yes, Kim is a vain fame whore. But seriously, enough with the conspiracy theories.
If we were talking about anyone else not in L.A id be livid But this Vapid tramp, In L.A I bet my entire apartment and its contents on an early On Purpose delivery to bypass further weight gain, a vaginal preservation C Section and the mini tuck deal that so many of them seem to have in that place
I wish nothing, but the best for this baby. Say what you will about Kim and her past, but she’s a mother now and that comes with a whole new level of stress. I hope Kanye can always put his daughter first no matter what the future holds for him and Kim. And lastly I hope PMK is fought tooth and nail by both Kim and Kanye to protect their child from her claws.
Since Kimmy doesn’t fight tooth and nail to protect herself from PMK I doubt she is going to have the resolve to do it on behalf of this child that was likely planned by PMK.
I bet Kris is thinking of glorious $$ signs. So….is US or People going to get the first exclusive baby picks on the cover? I wonder how much money the pix are going to fetch? 2 mill? More? Less? I’m also hoping that the baby is healthy.
5 weeks early, wow. Hope everything is ok
Glad for a healthy baby. At least she was born where Kim is most comfortable. On her back…..
*snort* A nice, quick little jab, very nice. >=)
When you wrote “where’s she’s most comfortable”, I automatically read “in LA”. Then I read what you actually wrote. You cheeky thing! But there is that sex tape to refer to, so I see your point.
LMAO !!!
She does like to be on her belly too. We’re so horrible xD
Am I really supposed to believe any of this? I doubt that she went in to labor on her own. Im willing to bet that she was planning on being induced early the whole time because pregnancy does the most damage to your body in the last few weeks, and it makes it almost impossible to go back to how you looked before. Kim is vapid and vain, I wouldnt put that past her even for a second.
Hmm. My baby was 4 weeks early, no induction. She and I were just ready! It does happen.
I seriously doubt she was early, she just lied about the due date from the get go to associate herself with Kate’s pregnancy. She lies all the time, I mean obvious, easy to verify lies. She is a habitual fabricator.
I almost went 6 weeks early and was dilated 3 and then 4 centimeters for weeks. It absolutely does happen. It’s actually not THAT unusual for first time moms. Remember, pregnancy and giving birth are two things that ask the body to do something totally foreign. Often, the body reacts by being a bitch and trying to expel the “alien” as soon as possible. On the flip side, often while laboring, the body is clueless, hence why some women take hours, if not days to give birth. There is no “typical” when it comes to baby having.
I have two theories: 1 – She lied about her due date in the first place to throw off the press; or, 2 – she induced (slightly) early – but not 6 weeks- when Kanye was actually in LA so he wouldn’t miss the birth. Given how much he has been traveling and how far, he was pushing it close in the event anything went wrong. I’m no fan of Kim, but Kanye was being far more self-absorbed during this pregnancy than I could have ever assumed. Although, I’m sure PMK had much to do with his behavior.
If baby really did come super early, I hope she’s doing okay. But a December announcement likely came after her first trimester. So around 1 weeks. So a mid-late June due date makes a lot more sense than mid-July. I think that was made up for press and Kim was actually due around this time.
I hope Kim’s recovering well too. I’m glad Kanye was there for her. Despite his faults, I can’t imagine how hard it would be for her to go through labor and delivery without her partner. Nobody deserves that. I don’t think I could have forgiven my husband if he wasn’t there, he made labor bearable.
I’m with you, Audrey. I like your mathematical justificayion, and doubt she was anywhere near 5 weeks early. Call me cynical, but I think she was due around now, and they played the July thing to align themselves with the duchess.
Kim would never say her due date was later than it was because she would be heavier for the time period. She is way too vain for something like that. Next, they don’t want the baby born around the same time as Will and Kate because then they are competing for the press coverage.
I am not surprised at all that she aligned her due date of Kate. She sees herself as American royalty, as ridiculous as it sounds.
5 weeks can be too early, or it can be just fine from what I’ve seen from friends early babies. Due dates are guesses and can go about 2 weeks either way, so maybe she was only 3 weeks early? Or maybe they lied about the due date. Who knows. Glad that mom and baby are doing well!
I have never seen an interview where they stated a due date. So when did they lie about due date.
I don’t know about a due date, but I did catch a part of that show when she found out the sex of the baby. She said something like she was further along then she had thought. So not sure what that means.
KW tweeted June Eighteen.
Kim’s July date was ‘leaked’ after Kates due date was announced. Coincidence? Of course not. 🙂
And so it has begun….god help us all.
Eh. I had a girlfriend like this who told everyone the baby came “early” but her husband admitted years later that the baby came right on time, she just didn’t want people to know how quickly she got pregnant.
I feel like this is KK.
Welcome little Kalabasas Vividienne Dorothy-Riccye.
May you teach your mother how to feel, or may she at least learn to care about you as much as a top handbag or giant diamond.
And if she is rotten to you, may she endure the mysterious tribulations of MercyKitten’s mystical revenge.
You are my new hero! 😉
Lord have mercy on that little baby.
i bet konsequence kouture is better than the name it gets
I don’t even believe for a second that this chick was actually due in July, I think she tried to bs the public like she has any sort of class, and like she didn’t immediately get herself pregnant as soon as her and Kanye started dating, while she was still legally married to another man. It’s always amused me how she tried to act like this pregnancy wasnt planned, yet the entire last season of kourtney and kim take NY was about her going off birth control and feeling like she wants a baby and freezing her eggs. then it was “oh what a surprise im pregnant” Best wishes to the baby, glad she was born healthy but Kim is complete trash.
@ emmy, ma exact thot… If u can remember she gve d interview a day after duchess of cambridge did n dts was wen d whole comparing started… She’s such a liar n hp d dotr cn b beta person
Translation please. I do not speak text message.
Haha. Seriously, Sarah. I’m not even going to waste my time trying to decipher that. (But I will waste my time commenting on it.)
ma exact thot… If u can remember she gve d interview a day after duchess of cambridge did n dts was wen d whole comparing started… She’s such a liar n hp d dotr cn b beta person
Um…WHAT?
All I know is I’m going to stay off the interwebs for at least a year now. I’m sick of this baby already.
Agree with you both.
Huh? She and Kanye started dating in March 2012. If she had gotten pregnant as soon as they started dating, the baby would be several months old now. And she obviously got pregnant while married to another man, since she got a divorce less than a month ago.
Um… Congrats? Good luck, little rich baby. You don’t know it yet but you were born into a whole lotta f*ckery.
Yeah, that’s all I got.
I SERIOUSLY doubt the baby was five weeks early! If the pregnancy was announced in December then she was most likely at least three months, which would put the due date in June, not mid-July. I wish this innocent baby all the luck in the world. Poor little girl…I do hope she’s healthy & fine.
The pregnancy was announced on December 30 from what I can see. So if she was exactly 12 weeks then her due date would have been July 14 (40 weeks).
Picking the due date is an inexact science. It is very unlikely she was exactly at 12 weeks when they announced her pregnancy. On top of which not all babies gestate at the same rate. But most of all, all Kim ever does is lie, so whatever she states as a fact is suspect. If she wasn’t such a habitual liar I might give her some credit but she couldn’t tell a straight story if her life depended on it. She just has to spin.
I understand how due dates work having just recently gestated a baby of my own. I was just pointing out that it is entirely possible based on when she announced her pregnancy for the baby to be due mid-July. With E! now reporting that the baby weighed under 5 lbs, I’m giving her the benefit of the doubt that the baby came early. I don’t really understand why people think she would lie about her due date (although I don’t really recall her ever saying when she was actually due). Other then throwing off the press, what would be the benefit of that?
I’m guessing that the next month we won’t be seeing kim elsewhere when in a gym
Good luck, Babye. You’re gonna need it.
I never doubted she would want a natural birth. That way she doesn’t have any c-section scares. I know people think all women want that. But it is a longer healing time.
I’m waiting for the baby name. I hope they skip the K name and just let that go.
Well congrats.. Kanye got a beautiful First Father’s Day gift. A baby girl..
OK on a dumb note I saw on twitter people were making reference to the date of birth 6/15/2013= 666 (I think it came from the whole Yeesus thing)
I just knew the Kardashians would somehow be responsible for the apocalypse, just not how.
I can’t stand either one of these two! I hope this satanic birthdate means that this little bundle of joy will be giving them hell for years to come!
I think a some women, especially celebrities, opt for a vanity c-section: where they do the c-section and tummy tuck all at once.
I always thought she would go natural after seeing the part of her show where Kourtney pulled Mason out of her birth canal. Family is nuts.
Exactly! My first son was a vaginal delivery and my second was a c section. Recovery the first time around was MUCH easier.
If I recall, Beyonce gave a later due date to throw everyone off. I remember thinking she was due a little before I was due and then she up and had a full term baby in early January.
It wouldn’t shock me if Kim kopied the same idea with little Keyonce West-Kardashian.
That’s exactly what I was thinking. Either that or she will use the “early birth” for sympathy and ratings. 😉
I really hope that mother & baby are healthy. My bro & I had the same due date, but I came 2 weeks late & he came 2 weeks early. (I had to be induced, I just didn’t want to leave, apparently xD)
It will be interesting to see how things go regarding PMK. I’d heard she was talking about bringing her (baby) into to some kind of show or living with her or something, where-as Kim has said repeatedly that the baby will *not* be part of anything, period. We all know how Kanye feels about that.
I wonder if Kim will have the guts to put her foot down if Kanye is supporting her. Would be nice to see Kris get her ass shut down for once. Hope she sticks to her guns this time.
Kim and her mother have a very unhealthy relationship but Kim will not stand up to her. She tells Kanye what he wants to hear but Kim loves her life with her mother and the show. Don’t forget how she has torpedoed every other relationship, she’ll do the same again. She needs to get the hell away from her mother, far, far away. But she’s 32 and she has never separated so she won’t now. Those apron strings have never been severed.
I totally agree with you but I think its past that point. Her mother openly refers to Kim as her favorite daughter right in front of her other children and I think she sincerely does mean that. Kris jenner is a monster and unfortunately I think she raised Kim to be exactly like her. Very self centered and vapid. Her mother is an extremely selfish woman who puts money before anything and I think Kim will be the same way.
People will probably jump all over this but honestly, does anybody think that Kim might have an issue with this child if she grows up to be unattractive? It’s a possibility because she’s that vain. Anyone who was that pretty and yet still felt the need to have so much work done is obviously completely obsessed with appearances. I almost wish she had a son, he might have had it easier than a daughter probably will in the hands of Kim and her mother.
I’m afraid she won’t even bond with the baby, let alone what the future holds. Kim is not a nice person, she is very much like her mother and I feel very sorry for the baby. I hope that Kanye can get his head out of his ass long enough to care for his girl because she really needs him.
@M I think it may be more likely that she will be jealous of the girl if she turns out being pretty. On the opposite end of that if she finds her daughter not pretty enough her ego will be hurt. I am hoping both are not the case.
@Nina W – Totally random, but I’ve always wondered how Kanye managed to get his head so far up his own ass. Seems he would’ve needed a bit of help. xD
——————————-
I was thinking about that, & about Kanye being back & forth internationally the last few months. I’m wondering if he’s plotting to get Kim away from Kris & the hoard of paps by taking her to another country. Maybe all this ‘working on his album’ was BS to hide what he’s really been up to. Buying a place, then furnishing it complete with astronomically overpriced designer baby crib made of gold or platinum. Maybe *Kim* doesn’t even realize his intentions yet.
I could even understand his being away from her so much, if that was what he was doing. He’s such a narcissistic control freak that I can’t see him simply hiring someone to take care of everything. He’d HAVE to do his own decorating, ect.
I’m seriously wondering, it would definitely make more sense than the whole ‘Paris is better than LA to work on my album even though my very pregnant girlfriend is about to explode‘ thing.
Then again, this is Kanye, so who the hell knows.
Welcome and good luck, little Konsequence Kouture. I hope you’re healthy and you have an armada of wonderful nannies.
(And 5 weeks early, my arse.)
yes, the due date is totes shady! I think it had a lot to do with the fact she was married to another dude. Nothing wrong with that, but the KKs will spin everything.
I wonder if the baby will be forced to listen to Rockabye Baby version of Kanye West!
Oh please… That little baby has been thru enough! No kanye version of nursery songs.
@Janie – Yeah, can you imagine what the poor child’s had to endure, listening to Kim, & her annoying breathy little baby voice, for all these months?
I just LOVE those cds; my kid can’t sleep without some metallica !
Some outlets are reporting that she “became ill yesterday and it was decided to deliver the baby”
My guess is preeclampsia – especially given the way her legs & feet have looked in recent weeks. Usually they’ll try to induce labor and will only section in an emergency. So that’s where I’m putting my money – preeclampsia/induction/naturalbirth
Makes sense.
She scheduled a C section and had a tummy tuck at the same time.
That was my exact thoughts. She has been seriously swollen and looking like she had preeclampsia.
Makes sense to me too. I was early naturally, and I know I was early because I knew the exact date of conception. My legs and feet were only slightly swollen. My boss’s wife, otoh, was terrifically puffy just like Kim. She ended up with preeclampsia and needed to be induced early as it is a life threatening condition.
I had horribly swollen feet during my pregnancy with my daughter. No blood pressure issues. Preeclampsia is possible, but sometimes babies just come early.
Yeah “she became ill” means she went into labor. I doubt she had preeclampsia. Her feet were swollen because she was heavily pregnant and spending way too much time on her feet in bad and constrictive shoes. She didn’t enjoy her pregnancy but it seems to me she had a pretty easy one. All her drama was self-induced and I’m confident the baby is healthy.
No. If you are sick enough from PE to be induced, you have a C-section. Pushing would only increase the severity of the PE and put both baby and mum in danger.
My guess
1- due date was pushed back to make it seem like she didn’t get knocked up as quick as she did.
2 – due date was pushed back to throw off media a little more.
I’d assume babe is a few days early. Babe is small cause she’s petite. She felt ill cause she was going into labour.
Done.
Gotta wonder if Kim conveniently “felt ill” (got induced) while ‘Ye was still in LA to force him to “be there” at the birth? I put nothing past the famewhoring Kuntrashian Klan and Lucifer’s Homegirl.
I think she scheduled a c-section to coincide with the release of his album as the trade off for him showing up.
Lol PHD gossip. Best possibility I’ve heard so far. 🙂
My thoughts exactly! This was a completely calculated PR move timed to coincide with Kanye’s album dropping. UGH. Despicable people! That said, I hope the baby is healthy.
As, long as they don’t name the baby ” Yeezus”…
5 weeks early, huh? Okay. Whatever. How much did that preemie weigh? Hope the spin machine at the Kardashian kompound remembers to get an appropriate weight for a baby that arrives 5 weeks early…. There’s still a lot to get finished up at 35 weeks: lung development, weight gain, etc.
I concur. I’m with the camp who believes she wanted an earlier delivery out of vanity. She would have been a planet if she kept going. I highly doubt she will breastfeed as well. Her vanity trumps all. I am glad the baby is well, but I can’t stand the parents.
I agree she is vain but no responsible doctor would let her pull the kid out too early. And her image is very important to her, you forget a big emphasis of their stupid show is the posturing as a good loving family. Neither she or her mother would want to risk getting caught risking the baby’s health for vanity. I don’t think much of KK but she is too vain and self-interested to want to risk her carefully crafted PR.
@Nina W – While it’s true that no responsible doctor would, unfortunately money can buy you all the irresponsible doctors you could want for anything & everything.
We’ve all seen countless celebs having cosmetic surgery repeatedly when no responsible doctor would touch them, yet they still managed to pay someone enough, even when it was a big risk to their health.
Oh for god give me a break. That baby was no way, no how five weeks early! She came in on time just like I said she would. Thanks to Kimmode wearing clothes that were so tight on Thursday I commented that she was ready to give birth because you could tell the baby had dropped and her head was down. Is nothing sacred to these pigs that they can’t even be truthful about this? They really do think their fans are idiots. And now let’s see her keep her word to the genius that is Kanye and keep the kid off the tube and out of the press. Again I gotta say NO WAY NO HOW this kid’s picture hasn’t already been taken and ready for sale to the highest bidder.
She has only began to realize what she has gotten herself into. The fame and money isn’t worth my peace of mind. I bet he will be controlling her. Good job, Kim you now have all the attention and fame you want but is it worth it.The child is a blessing, but now she’s tied to HIM forever.
Kanye has nothing on her mother, talk about controlling…..
I put nothing past Kim & PMK so I’m just going to assume that baby was full term and that Kim deliberately got pregnant to have everything coincide with the premiere and finale of her show.
Good luck, East Kardashian West. Good luck to you!
I hope she was fibbing about her due date or the tabloids had it wrong. Maybe she was due July 1st. And if the due date was correct I hope the baby is okay. Sometimes babies just come early. Sometimes they do fine and sometimes they need a little bit of time in the NiCU.
NOOO, I wanted her to get even fatter, have stretch marks galore and fall into a deep depression because she cant lose weight!!! HA HA thats what you get you self-centered, vapid brainless waste of space
Hmmmm… where do I return this present? I do not want the same birthday as Kimye’s baby. Is there a receipt so I can return her to their DASH boutique? 36 years old today, therefore I have dibbs on the day first, therefore I am returning this unwanted birthday surprise.
Aw, sympathy, and Happy Birthday!
i bet you can get a 10% discount on some purple leopard print jeggings with camo racing stripes at DASH! congrats!
So funny! If it was leopard print by itself or black with camo stripes it might not be so bad. But put them together and you have just the right amount of Kardashian Klass.
Well congratulations!
As precious as those first days are, I would never ever want to do that for the first time again. The leaking, engorged boobs, the random crying, the sweating (why did no one mention the sweating?) and the bleeding. Oh yes, a newborn! At least if I do it again, I know what’s coming!
I don’t think she was early? I think she lied all along.. I’m curious about the weight? I’m glad they are both safe, i was worried about Kim & all the swelling. Congrats to them both!
I wish them all well, in every way.
Life is mysterious and I believe people can grow and evolve and milestone events like a birth can open the door to many possibilities.
This. My son changed my life and he changed me.
I sincerely hope becoming a mother changes Kim for the better but I seriously doubt it.
I’m glad Kanye was by her side! Childbirth is tough, c-section or natural.
For those in the “c-section/tummy-tuck” camp – I don’t think that’s how she’d go…
Have you ever seen a tummy tuck scar? Even on a mini they are horrendous. No way an instagram filter would cover that.
Also – c-section deliveries are major surgery. I’m sure it’s done, but I don’t think it would be medically advisable to have two major abdominal surgeries at once.
That’s not true, actually. The TT line fades to an almost invisible line if the doctor is good. (I had one and have at least 10 friends who have also had them. It’s the only way to get rid of that skin shelf.)
Or you can just not get a skin shelf. No one I know got one?
60 pounds will do it for you! I was tiny when I got pg the first time – unbelievable skin stretching.
But good for you.
You cannot perform a tummy tuck in the same surgery as a c-section. I think it’s an urban myth.
Happy Birthdate
6/15/2013?
6 ..
1+5=6
2+0+1+3=6
666 hey, hey.. weird..
–
Whoa, that is weird.
I saw this in dlisted and they got it from Twitter so don’t try to take credit.
I think she really went into labor and believe this was a natural birth. She looked absolutely ready to give birth in the last few pics I have seen. Either that or the baby is already rebelling, YAY!
You know Kim would have wanted 1. To have lil Kimye on a weekday when she would get more press 2. To have a planned, scheduled c-section (so she could have a tummy tuck) and 3. To drop the tot anytime BUT the weekend before daddy Kanye’s album drops. Yeezus is gonna get all swole over Kimye taking attention away from his genius beats!
I am loving little Khaos Kardashian-West already. Bringing her own dramz to foil mommy, daddy, and Grammy Lucifer’s Homegirl’s plans!
TMZ reported Kanye’s new album was leaked today. Coincidence? Hmmmm…
Estelle… You are so funny & so right!
I hope this little girl grows up with more sense than her parents. And ends up being a neuroscientist or something.
Sorry to sound like the grinch but whoopdie fuckin doo!
Welcome to the world, Ka-ching! Kardashian.
Maya:
Ka-ching! Kardashian is absolutely the best baby name suggestion I’ve heard. Exotic and so fitting.
I hate to admit this but I’m looking forward to seeing pictures of the baby. I bet she’s beautiful.
Not if she looks like him.
Honestly I don’t think Kanye is bad looking, and considering how gorgeous Kim was as a child, baby girl will probably be very pretty.
@fallen
i agree. kim was pretty before she got all the surgeries and injections. and kanye is a decent looking guy.
i think their daughter will be pretty. just hope someone makes sure she has a decent life. i hope kanye puts his foot down about her being on TV and such
@judyjudy – I can’t help but be a little curious about which skin tone the baby will have. =) I think it seems like lighter skin tones are more ‘dominant’ (like with Queen Bey & Princess Blu), but for some reason I want her to have something closer to his tone.
I do think his skin color is very ‘pretty’ too. Not that it even matters, of course.
Welcome to the world and good luck little baby girl. Your family is crazy, so may you have a sweet, loving nanny who teaches you values beyond fame and money, never tells you that you need plastic surgery and botox, and makes sure you learn stuff besides how to speed dial the paparazzi.
Interesting theories abound, but the bottom line to me is that I don’t believe a single word from her camp. Could have been vaginal, could have been c-section. Maybe he was there, maybe he wasn’t. Seriously doubt the baby was early, but she has been abusing her body with the constant travel. etc, so who knows??
Can we please just be done with these horrible, horrible people??
Baby is already overshadowing dad. LOL I believe she was full term she just didn’t want to admit how fast she really got pregnant. So much for getting pregnant issues. Can’t wait for the name I’m sure we will know it soon enough and of course we are going to see a picture and Kanye will have some pathetic excuse as to why that is ok. We are so going to see this baby pimped out for all it’s worth. Kim just can’t help herself. Wonder when she will start hitting the gym? LOL Congrats to the little family now the countdown to the split…
Congrats on the little one! I think they fibbed about the due date to throw paps off, Kim probably didn’t want her pic taken on the way into the hospital.
All she has to do is not call them and tell them her plans. She courts the paps, she’s not their victim, they work together.
Very true.
Barf.
Babies can change people. make them better. I hope Kim is a good mother.
Crazy! I knew she would be due anytime! I actually mentioned that on the last post Celebitchy posted regarding Kim’s due date (Posted on June 14th)! 😆
Congrats to them! Baby’s going to be gorgeous! I’m wondering what they named her?
God bless her little soul. Both parents are famewhores. LOL
If you don’t follow him.. you should because he is a Jewel..
Patton Oswalt @pattonoswalt 25m
I’m assuming Kim Kardashian had her baby, if only because Gregory Peck just walked by me carrying the 7 Daggers of Megiddo.
**** so freaking funny.
Rofl, he is so hilarious.
LMAO!!!! You know, I laughed so hard I peed a little. That happens to some women who have had babies. We pee when we sneeze. We pee when we laugh. We pee when we cough. Just letting Kimmy know what fun stuff awaits her.
Your pelvic muscles should only be that weak during the first couple of week. keggle exercises dear
Call me crazy, but I knew she’d have the baby today….Kayne’s birthday was on 6/8 and with his God complex I figured Kim would deliver 7 days later
I just read what radar said and they said she had a c section. I believe radar more than TMZ. TMZ is to pro Kardashian compared to radar. TMZ source is Kris obviously. I think she was to scared to do a natural birth.
Well E!, her station, reported a natural childbirth and an under 5 pound delivery weight so we can pretty much assume a c-section and a 7-9 pounder.
Yeah, Mediatakeout also reports a c-section
http://mediatakeout.com/m63400/breaking-news-kim-kardashian-gives-birth-by-emergency-c-section-baby-is-a-month-premature-in-an-incubator.html
Will baby kimye be allowed to play with blue?
Babies can come a month early and be totally fine. In fact, I always think that you should always be ready to give birth a month prior to your actual due date–it’s not an exact science! My sister arrived a month early–the doctors had given my mom a due date at the beginning of June. My sister came out screaming at the top of her lungs at the beginning of May–the doctor didn’t even need to slap her to see if her lungs were okay, he told my mom “This one has a good set of lungs!” She wasn’t even considered a preemie–healthy weight and everything. My mom was home with her the very next day.
I was three 1/2 weeks early and weighed 6 lbs 13 ounces, so it is possible that Kim gave birth to a 5lb or 6lb girl… My sister was pregnant with my nephew and 4 weeks before her due date my nephew was estimated to be 7 lbs. So it is possible that Kim gave birth early and the baby could weigh close to 6lbs.
I don’t think she was early..but whatever. She better enjoy all the attention now..before Kate Middleton delivers
For some reason I had hoped the baby would stay in there nice and safe and not come out for fear of Kim’s parental skills or lack thereof.
And I enjoyed watching Kim swell up as well:D
Have there been any updates as to weight/ name? Kanye always looks so miserable I hope the baby didn’t come out with his grimace.
E! Claims the weight is under five pounds but both mother and baby are healthy. No mention of premie issues. Also no mention of the name.
My youngest was 6 weeks early and was 4lb 4oz. Thankfully she had no issues at all and only had to stay in the NICU for 2 weeks to make sure she gained weight appropriately. She never even needed to be in an incubator – just in a little open air crib.
If their baby was indeed early – I hope they’re as lucky as we were!
Every other report I’ve read stated Kim had a C-section, not a natural birth. If that’s the case, was she induced for the sake of vanity, or a health issue? I also thought Kanye had returned to Europe after his B-day party in NYC. Was he really in the delivery room? And do we know the baby’s weight? That will tell the tale for sure.
Docs would only go a csection that early for health reasons. Not that I’m suggesting the birth date Kim gave was true. If I had paps following me all day I’d give a later due date too.
I want to know why she lied about the due date. What was the point of that? And if the birth was natural why does the Huffington Post say the baby is in an incubator because of it’s small size.
I do believe KK got sick, went into labor, had the baby and Kanye was there somewhere, maybe in the lobby.
Finally this baby has been born. The most talked about baby since Shiloh. This poor poor kid. Narcissists run rampart thru her family.
How about Kupcake?
..or Kash Kow.
Mother Kris is having placenta pureed and injected directly into her face.
anyway, Kongrats, wish that baby well.
how about Ka-ching Kardashian???
Well if it’s true the baby is in an incubator it lends credence to the baby being 5 weeks early. E! Reported a birth weight of “under five pounds”. When babies are born early and or under weight their lungs may not be fully developed and they pop them in the incubators so they can increase the oxygen for them and help them breath.
I’m sorry, I meant if the due date was now, then the baby would most likely not be underweight. If the due date was in July, baby 5 wks early, then it doesn’t matter natural or c-section, the baby is most probably underweight.
One of these scenarios is true, not both. Either Kim lied about the due date for some unknown reason(?) and baby is healthy in all ways, or she gave birth prematurely, the baby quite likely in an incubator.
The only one who knows the truth is Kim I guess. Kanye tweeted a June 18th due date at one point which implies that this is not a five week early baby. But then after the duchess announced her expected July due date, Kim also said mid-July. *shrug* I can’t read these tea leaves, hehe.
nina, I think kanye just tweeted June 18th. never said it was the due date, people just assumed.
5 pounds would definitely be a small one, could be 5 weeks premature.
But damn, would have been a big baby if she had gone full term
Looks like it was a natural birth, baby born month early, 5 lbs, looks just like Kim and is currently in an incubator. Welcome to the world little Kupcake.
Kanye tweeted 18 June because that’s when his album comes out.
With those two as parents, you know the little Babye is going to deliver the drama.
She looked pre-eclamptic to be honest. Her feet were very swollen and she looked like she was retaining water. Either that or an Incompetent Cervix, I mention that because she had a ‘scare’ earlier which may indicate she was having preterm labor problem and this would make sense with that. Glad she and baby are fine. Doctors will normally not stop labor at 35+ weeks.
I’m sort of shocked that she would be allowed a vaginal delivery in a severe case of pre-eclampsia.
I had sever pre-eclampsia at 37 weeks. I suddenly fell “off” just as she was said to have felt. I could not describe the “off” feeling, only that something was strange. I had a terrible headache and I felt funny somehow. I turned out that my blood pressure was 230/140 (go ahead and faint).
There was not even a moment of consideration for a vaginal delivery because the pushing (not to mention the time spent at such high BP) could end up in a stroke. It was an emergency c-section, followed by an IV drip of magnesium (horrible, absolutely horrible) and injections of hydrolozine every 20 minutes until they could get my pressure into human range. My daughter weighed 6.8. So her baby being several weeks younger would be about just under five lbs. That make sense, since they gain a pound per week in the last several weeks of the pregnancy.
If the description of her claiming to feel “off” is accurate and given how swollen she was, I could absolutely buy an emergency c-section for pre-eclampsia at 35 weeks. But a vaginal delivery with sever pre-eclempsia? That I can’t buy. So I am betting on c-section.
Good gracious, I’m glad you and your baby came through all that, how scary. This is the problem with Kim, she’s the girl who cried wolf, she just can’t help lying and we all end up scratching our heads. As the poster above mentioned, how can both stories be true, they can’t.
Thanks Nina:) We did.
It’s heavily rumored that many celebs schedule early c sections do as not to gain the max amount of weight. See Gisele, or Heidi klum…..Kim is just that vain. Look how she traveled all the way to the end. That “natural” birth was a csection, followed by a tummy tuck/breast lift & lipo!!!!!! God bless this infant.
No reputable doctor will deliver a baby that early for vanity. None. Not even if she were hypertensive. She would be put on bed rest or admitted into the hospital so they could monitor her BP and they would try to get as close to 37 weeks as possible, which is considered full term.
And a boob lift? I find that really hard to believe. In 3 days or so, they will have their own zip code. There is no way to negotiate around that.
I wish that was true, but money can buy a lot.
I always thought doctors don’t send away patients because someone famous is in the hospital, but look at Beyonce..
The last month being pregnant is tough and a lot of celeb have an early birth so they don’t gain too much weight. A lot of stuff is possible when u have money, sad but true.
Um, Gisele doesn’t even give birth in a hospital. She does home births, completely natural. Then tells us all about it and how awesome it makes her
You know there are no hospital statistics for “C-tuck” type procedures? A tummy tuck immediately following a c-section would yield the worst results imaginable – Your uterus is still huge and there is no way to know how much your stomach will shrink.
A tuck down the road – sure – but not at the same time as the birth.
I don’t mean to bring in false information, or egg on false rumours, but is it true that Kanye West has a “secret” child. Does anyone know about this? I have no clue if the person who told me was bullshitting me or not. =/
Never heard of this, sound like total bullshit.
Never heard this- there was/is a pretty persistent rumor that Jay-Z had a love child with a Trinidadian model about 10 years ago. Apparently the model’s father gave a statement that Jay-Z was the father, and then when she denied it he retracted it.
I think Kanye’s going to be far more into Kim once she looks ‘hot’ again. The guy has a type and preggo ain’t it.
Will be interesting to see when we next see Kim out and about.
we’ll see her right away if she scored a weight loss deal. won’t see her for at least 6 weeks if she didn’t. can’t have people see a real post-pregnancy body unless the $$ is right
I hope they name the baby
KRIST
Would be wonderful, considering Kanye thinks he is Jesus, Kim is obsessed with momager Kris, and of course we all know Kanye didn’t stick his peen in to father this child. ‘KRIST’ the immaculate conception!
Kim+Donda would be Kinda? OMG, I hope that they don’t go THAT direction. Kinda wrong, no?
I wish all the best to parents and baby. I`m sure she`s beautiful!
This is not the time to be mean.
+1
Agree the birth of a healthy baby is always something to celebrate. Congrats to the parents.
I hope everything’s all right and also that they gave the baby a normal name..
Anyone else finding it odd that they’re seems to be a Kardashian blackout on Twitter about the baby? For such a public family not one of them (so far) have commented or congratulated Kim on having the baby, unlike when Courtney had her two babies.
Yes, but it’s Sunday, they are stragezing for the Monday news cycle.
I tend to believe the birth was unexpected at this point – Kanye wouldn’t have planned his gig if they had planned a c-section. Scott Disick had to stay at Kanye’s listening and was seen frantically texting. I think the silence is probably due to the fact that they all haven’t had time to contractually decide what to do with the baby media-wise. My opinion is that Kim was due by the end of June and that that whole Leyla Ghobadi thing sent her into labour early.

This is irrelevant but the idea of “frantic texting” always makes me lmao and I can totally picture Scott Disick being the KING of frantic texting…
Not buying or reading any mag which features this birth trumpeting “My Baby Joy”. Waiting for the far more interesting birth of Kate & Williams’ baby.
Just had a thought. Wouldn’t it be amazing if Kate’s baby comes early, before PMK has the chance to negotiate a bit fat mag deal. Bye bye Kartrashian cover and 6-page “exclusive” deal when an important Royal Baby is born. We can only hope….
I hope the baby is ok…it’s weird that Team KK has not released any official statement. Makes me think things might not be ok. I hope that is not the case!
I would worry about that, too. Under 5 lbs, if true, means the baby could be having problems even if an incubator is just standard practice. Or Kim herself might not be doing so well. They might just not know at this point, explaining the uncharacteristic silence.
I had my babe 5 weeks early. He weighed 6lbs. 2 oz. – which is right on the 50th percentile for that gestational age. I know the date of conception, so my due date wasn’t off. My water didn’t even break until 10 minutes before he was born! My whole labour lasted only 2.5 hours – shock to the system for sure!
Sometimes it just happens early, and thankfully my boy was fine except for some jaundice which is common in full term babies too.
Despite him being fine, it was stressful having a preterm baby simply because there are more statistics to worry about. Kim has had a rough run with this pregnancy between weight gain, constant scrutiny and what seems like an unsupportive partner. I hope she doesn’t also have to deal with the worry of a preterm baby with a low birth weight (under 5 pounds). This really hasn’t been her year.
I read on eonline that the baby has dark hair like her Mom. Her Mom is adark-haired caucasian and her Dad is black; is the baby likely to be anything else than dark-haired?!
I thought it was the strangest thing when she made a point to say she conceived in Vatican City (???) and now the birth was “early” on 6/15/2013 (6/6/6) I really try not to buy into this stuff but wow very weird right??!
TMZ is reporting a natural child birth while ROL is reporting the baby was born via C-section. Which is it?
First I don’t believe she was early. And because we are speaking to her birth, the KrapTrashians didn’t waste any time making sure everyone knew. Now they are sitting back taking orders from Kanye and trying decide how they can over-ride him. Of course they (Kimmode and the man-child) are waiting for offers to roll in so they can bank some money on the first known picture of their little girl. PMK is just biding her time and the War of the K’s well ensue shortly I am sure. So good luck and happy birthday little girl K-West! With your family you are going to need it. It is an interesting fact that PMK and Kimmode were able to send babysitters from their camp to sit with Kanye. AH…he is slowly turning into one of them! Yuk.
I believe her! I had my son 5 weeks early and had a c section because of true CPD (small pelvis). I had a normal pregnancy but my water broke the day I turned 35 weeks and I went into labor. My son was healthy (thank God!) just lower birth weight of 5 lbs. 5 oz. I am a petite woman and only gained 22 lbs. during pregancy. I cannot tell you how many women accused me of having a c section and an early baby because I didn’t want to ruin my body!! I am no KK fan, but lay off Kim and be happy for her!
Re: Pic of Kenye in the delivery room. All that can be staged, no? Best wishes to the little baby.
She’s just as tall as me, 5’2″, she definetly weighed over 190 delivering. I weighed 170 and I wasn’t as big as she was. My baby was at term 7 lbs something. Man, she really was retaining water. She didn’t exercise much during her pregnancy. If she breast feeds it will help with some of the weight loss. That and exercise. Not a crash diet of pills and barely eating.
Why is everyone so mad? Ease up a bit, no one’s been killed.
Dear God, enough with the conspiracy freaks on here. She had a five-pound baby. Of course, the baby was early. Kanye cancelled attending his precious listening party for his CD at the last minute and went there to Kim when she didn’t feel right. Of course, he was there, not a faked photo. He may not care about Kim, but he would definitely want to be there when the baby was born. And all that matters regarding the birth is that the little girl is doing fine.
Now anything else about the Kardashians and how they will capitalize on this baby now that she is here is fair game, fame hos that they are, except whatever Kanye keeps an iron grip on. Mama Kris will just go around it the best she can to rake in the money to the treasury that is all Kardashian.
I noticed on their last show I saw this weekend that Bruce must do his eyebrows. They are like women’s eyebrows. I went online and looked at an older photo and he had thicker eyebrows. I really believe he is going to be coming out as a transexual one day or at the very least is a cross-dresser and likes his eyebrows more feminine. His hair is a mess with that dye job. He needs to cut his hair and let it have some grey in it and stop with that flat middle part.
Their show is so scripted. It’s like they pick storylines and then weave it throughout that show and miracuously work it out at the end, like Bruce moving out. You never get the feeling anything is just reality captured on film, just happened, except a few fights among the siblings.
What a F-ing ugly man. If you want to call him that.
