Us Weekly: Kim Kardashian & Kanye have tried IVF, now considering surrogacy

KK2

This ^^ is one of my new favorite photos of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. Kim posted a ton of throwback photos to celebrate her one-year anniversary, and she ended up posting many never-before-seen wedding portraits and pre-wedding party pics. But this one, this is just… awesome. Kim looking at the camera (her best friend!) while Kanye sucks on her cheek like he’s a fish. It’s amazing. He’s not really kissing her face, it’s like he’s trying to give her cheek a hickey.

Anyway, a year has passed and it’s looking more and more like Kim and Kanye are going to need some help if they want to get pregnant or add to their family in any way. Many of you believe that Kim is “faking” her fertility problems because she’s always wanted to just use a surrogate (so she won’t have to “ruin” her body again). There’s something to that theory, but I also believe Kim has some legitimate fertility issues. In any case, Us Weekly says Kim and Ye are getting tired of IVF (which they’ve been trying for a while) and are now considering surrogacy.

There are a lot of ways to grow a family, and Kim Kardashian isn’t ruling out any of them. After unsuccessfully trying for a year to get pregnant again, the reality star is exploring other options with husband Kanye West — including surrogacy, a source reveals in the new issue of Us Weekly. Until now, the Dash mogul has been trying to conceive the old-fashioned way — she joked that she and West have sex “500 times a day” — and via in vitro fertilization.

“Kim has been undergoing IVF,” the insider tells Us of Kardashian, 34, who welcomed daughter North West, 23 months, in June 2013, after a dramatic, difficult delivery. “It’s causing problems with her body.”

Indeed, as Keeping Up With the Kardashians fans saw on a recent episode, the star had to undergo a procedure to “clear something out of [her] uterus.” And on the May 31 show, she’ll reveal that an implanted embryo did not take. In part because of that, the couple may start to pursue a surrogate in June, the source tells Us, adding, “They will do surrogacy over adoption.”

Kardashian hinted as much during an interview with Matt Lauer last month. Asked about her fertility struggles during an interview on the Today show, she said the idea of surrogacy had been recommended to her, but that she and West, 37, were still mulling their options.

“I would like to hold out a little bit longer, and still try,” she told Lauer. “I still have hope, so I’m just going to keep on trying. Never say never. I mean, we haven’t talked about adopting.”

Whatever they decide, one thing is certain: Kardashian wants to give North a little brother or sister, and sooner rather than later. The source says she wants her daughter to have “a sibling close in age…just like she is with her sisters.”

[From Us Weekly]

I think… sure, I sort of believe that. I believe that they’ve been trying IVF and it hasn’t taken yet. I believe that they’ve probably been talking about surrogacy as an option for a while. I even believe that Kim was prepared to get pregnant again, even after her difficult pregnancy with North. Sometimes things ARE as they seem. Now, I think that once they do have a second child (by whatever means), that might be it for them. After all this drama, I think Kim will probably settle on being a mom of two.

    Putting up that pic with no warning of Kim and her tongue sticking out is just MEAN. I just had breakfast!!
    I am sooooooo shocked at the possibility of them using a surrogate….I have to go lie down now.

    • JudyK says:

      Ditto and LOL!

    • Nicolette says:

      Yes, that should’ve come with a warning. My Cheerios are doing flip flops right now. Not a sight to be seen so soon after breakfast, or anytime really.

    • Santia says:

      Yo, Kim, I’ma let you finish, but Amber Rose had the best (grossest) tongue out kiss of all time …

      • Lahdidahbaby says:

        Santia, you win the Internets today. Omg, I think I hurt myself.

        As for the surrogate, uh yeah, quelle surprise and all that.

    • Hmmm says:

      I HATE when people post photos with their tongues in someone else mouth. It’s so gross.

      • Piña colada says:

        +1 that pic is really gross. I’m not even joking. I’m pregnant and trying really hard to eat breakfast. I didn’t need to see that!

    • Katie says:

      Agreed!!!! Their kissing photos always GROSS ME OUT!! Kanye always looks like he’s trying to eat her face! Gag. Barf. Hurl. I need eye bleach now.

  2. whipmyhair says:

    I was not prepared for the tongue photo.

    • Shambles says:

      Like a bucket of ice water to shock you awake in the morning, eh?

    • Size Does Matter says:

      I did not need to see that. Ever.

      Made me think of Howard the Duck when the creature sticks his tongue into the cigarette lighter in the truck to recharge himself.

    • FingerBinger says:

      I wasn’t prepared either. I haven’t had breakfast yet and I don’t want any now.

      • Skyblue says:

        The tongue picture made me throw up a little and now my coffee doesn’t taste good. Thanks a lot! Blech blech blech…the sound of my hand frantically wiping the bad taste off my TONGUE!!!!

    • ava7 says:

      Someone on here called this months ago. Idk, it seems like she talked waaaaay too much about her struggle to get pregnant and the medical issues she would have with her placenta (any doctors out there care to comment on that? I’d never heard of it) if she had a baby. I’ve known a few people who struggled to get pregnant and went through treatments and finally IVF, and and it’s a very emotionally and physically exhausting process. I know they both want really light, mocha skinned babies, but I hope they will consider adopting a baby from an orphanage.

      • mememe says:

        They want “really light mocha skinned babies?” Did these fools actually say that in an interview? There are orphans of every color under the sun.

      • sal says:

        Kim had her baby North removed as soon as possible. Skipping over a month of her pregnancy to avoid weight gain.

        She is faking the story of not being able to get pregnant, carefully crumbing out the struggle so that if she hires a woman to do her pregnancy for her, it won’t seem selfish and against her “brand.” Her biggest concern is her looks and she didn’t even do a full pregnancy last time (much like Jessica Simpson did, the fad in hollywood is to skip a month or more of weight gain).

      • Shauna says:

        I’m confused because on her show, which I watch shamefully, her doc told her she had no issues and she should be able to get pregnant just fine.

      • Jenjennyjenjenjenn says:

        I was one of the people (I wasn’t the only one) who called it. I think a surrogate was her desire from the beginning.

      • Tiffany :) says:

        I remember people predicting this a long time ago as well. I also remember comments like Shauna’s, where they said her doctor told her on the show she had no fertility issues.

    • kcarp says:

      Right just when you think they are being normal they show their lack of KLASS

  3. snarky mcsnark says:

    This is all such a load of crap! She has been setting this up since she had Nori and hated everything about being pregnant, namely ya know gaining weight. She is nothing but superficial and narcissistic. Point blank, period!

    • Santia says:

      I’ll go one step further and say they are going to introduce the baby any day now. Kim never had any intention of getting pregnant again.

      • Krissy says:

        Agreed. Kim has psoriasis, she had to stop taking her medication for a year before she got pregnant for North, I remember seeing pics and she had breakouts that were visible. If she was actively trying to conceive she would have to stop those meds and we would be able to tell..

    • tracking says:

      yes, I think so too.

    • Jag says:

      Just putting all my thoughts here: I agree! When she went with Khloe the doctor said she would have no trouble becoming pregnant. She said she HATED being pregnant with her daughter and that she wouldn’t get pregnant ever again.

      All of this new stuff is a storyline to lead up to surrogacy. She has the money to make a doctor say anything. She could have polyps which have to be removed from her uterus, or perhaps she has endometriosis; it doesn’t have to be something which would prevent pregnancy.

      • Katydid20 says:

        Awwww but those are doctors! What do they know! Definately not more than Kris and Kim

      • swack says:

        Endometriosis can prevent pregnancy depending on how extreme it is. My best friend had trouble getting pregnant and the main reason was her endometriosis. Bet that is what she had taken care of when she said she had a piece of her placenta removed from her uterus.

    • denisemich says:

      I think she is pregnant now. You can’t trust US mag. They said the whole family was going to Paris last weekend for a vow renewal at the Eiffel.

    • Mel M says:

      100% agree. This was always going to be the end goal, a surrogate. As someone who has struggled with infertility it is obvious and nauseating to me how she is just using this as a storyline in her manufactured life. She has no idea.

    • TeaAndSympathy says:

      I totally agree, Snarky. I’m surprised there wasn’t a photo included of KK with her pants on fire… She’s been setting this up for months. I’m confident that if she was having IVF, we’d have heard about it while it was going on, considering she has to blab about every detail of her life. Why haven’t we seen any pap shots of her going and coming from the clinic? Either she’s just a blatant liar, or it IS possible to lead a life free from constant paparazzi documenting every move she makes. Also, just when did she have the treatments? She’s been flitting all over the place for months, and seems not to spend even a day at home.

    • Sarah says:

      ITA and I raise you several +++++’s! Yes, this was the plan all along. Market the hell out of the family brand. And Kim and PMK know that babies are so photogenic that the paps will always show up when Kim and PMK call them to set it up. Even poor little North has a limited shelf life, so they need to keep bringing on the replacements (same as the Jenner girls replacing the older Kardashian sisters).

      I am so jaded about this family and it looks like a lot of other people on this site are too, so I don’t feel so guilty about it 🙂

  4. Tiffany27 says:

    Lord forgive me if there actually are fertility issues, but I just…………I just think she doesn’t want to be pregnant again and mess up her body.

    • Tate says:

      I think she just does not want to be pregnant again which is fine but she should own it and stop with her lies.

    • mememe says:

      I would LOVE TO be rich enough for surrogates and I would be glad to brag about it! Even if I could have bio kids, if I had hundreds of millions of dollars, I’d pay someone else to carry the kid. Why not? It’s funny to me she had to use this whole ruse.

      In this age of competitive mommyhood, it’s so strange that people are so weirdly deceitful about using surrogates.

      • Sarah says:

        Good post! I think it is BECAUSE we are in the age of competitive mommy hood that people are so weirdly deceitful about using surrogates. Because it wouldn’t be kosher to say “Hey, I’m just too lazy and self-absorbed to carry the child up to delivery, so I’m hiring someone else to do it”. Now if I had the option (and the money), I might do it. And maybe I would brag about it just to see people’s reactions! 🙂

  5. Cris says:

    Don’t believe she can’t get pregnant. I think she just is too lazy and worried about her body to carry another baby. She was very vocal about hating being pregnant.

  6. Eva says:

    I don’t believe this for a second. They have been sewing the seeds for an excuse to use a surrogate for months, and trying IVF is the final box to be ticked before they announce it.

    • Hannah says:

      Yup. I can’t believe people are stupid enough to believe their krap to be honest.

    • kcarp says:

      yep. I don’t blame her I really don’t. I hated being pregnant. I was sick, throwing up, etc. Just don’t BS.

      Do you think they are trying to borrow Beyonce’s surrogate’s uterus.

    • Josephine says:

      Except that their kid is only around 2, right? If they are trying IVF (I assume it’s a lie, of course), they would actually try for a couple years. Add a year in for trying naturally, and it’s way too flippin’ early to even think surrogacy.

      I wish more people would feel disgusted by their use of sensitive issues to create story lines. It’s so hurtful to make up such a lie for a tv show when so many people are experiencing the real thing. They’re just horrible people.

      • Angel says:

        Thank you, the math just doesn’t add up. They can’t have been trying for “a while” and then “tired” of IVF. There hasn’t been enough time. Just own your choices people.

      • Eva says:

        Exactly, but nothing is sacred to this family unfortunately.

      • Bob Loblaw says:

        She’s having sex “500 times a day”, they’re trying so hard, you guys, why all the hate, just because she lies all the time doesn’t mean we shouldn’t believe her this time, she’s clearly suffering, boo-hoo, and all that.

  7. Shambles says:

    You can tell he really loves her. That’s all I got.

    • Josephine says:

      Yeah, not convinced. He seems to like the idea of being with her as the product she is (trampy, inflated body parts, happy to oil up and pose naked frequently, vacuous, easy to control, needs him for his higher profile), but I doubt that he actually loves her. He only speaks of what she looks like, and how well she’s sold herself over the years. He’s not around that much, and when he is, the body language is not someone who is even considerate of the other person, let alone loving. Their posed pics are too over the top and staged to be real.

      • prissa says:

        Your comment 1000%!!

      • mememe says:

        Yes! He barely seems to know her. He talks about her being beutiful, hot, sexy, we’ll dressed (HAHA), rich, famous…. but he never speaks of her character, wit, insight (cuz we all know she’s empty).

    • Bob Loblaw says:

      Right, sucking someone’s face while they make out with a camera is clearly a sign of tru wuv.

  8. L&Mmommy says:

    I HATE tongue pictures! Why do couples do this? It is so disgusting.

  9. Whinehouse says:

    Who has a professional take a picture of themselves tongue out, sticking it in their partners mouth at a PRE-WEDDING PARTY!?! So much class.

    • ava7 says:

      People who are narcissists and aren’t content to just have a love life that is enjoyed between themselves. They have to make sure everyone knows and sees it.

    • Boston Green Eyes says:

      I’ve noticed weddings videos of couples kissing with mouths wide open at the alter when the officiator declares, “you may kiss the bride” or whatever is said.

      I’m like, wtf?

      • Whinehouse says:

        It’s just awful and not sexy at all. I can’t help but think they’re trying to prove something by showing everyone how totally hot their relationship is.

    • Bob Loblaw says:

      She has no concept of what is sexy and he likely has a boyfriend, result is these “wedding” photos. Cause face licking is so sexy.

  10. Hannah says:

    Omg so shocking.

    And that first pic of them – look at kanye’s lips! Gross…
    Edit: nevermind, ALL the pictures are gross.

  11. Sugar says:

    Nothing but a created storyline.

  12. GoodNamesAllTaken says:

    I don’t really believe her, but I will say this – my doctors couldn’t find any specific reason that I was unable to get pregnant. All sorts of theories but no diagnosis of it’s hopeless. So I kept trying and trying for seven or more years until I just couldn’t take any more. If I had it to do over again, I would just adopt or do surrogacy or whatever it took.

    • Shambles says:

      I’ve always admired your openness with your infertility struggles, GNAT, so thanks again for sharing. I can’t imagine what 7 painful years of trying must have been like. Your strength is inspiring. But I tend to side-eye Kim’s “infertility struggle” as well.

    • Tiffany27 says:

      This is why I feel bad about commenting. I truly wish for no couple to struggle with infertility. It’s just…….this family. I just cannot trust anything that comes out of their mouths.

    • ShinyGrenade says:

      I’m so sorry you have been through this. I just went to pick all the medication for our first round of IFV (with ICSI, micro-TESE and PGD). That will not be a walk in the park. If it does work, we might take the donor route, or stay childfree. We will see.

      But Infertility sucks, and people have no idea, until they are in the situation.

      For K and K, I dunno. Not sure how she will have manage all the drugs and monitoring…

      • AG-UK says:

        Good luck. I did Ivf and you are right no walk in the park and it’s all timed so once you do 1 round you can’t just start again it’s a few months before you begin again. I was lucky 40y/o and it worked the first time. I had to tell people at work if I seem crazy it’s the drugs it’s like PMS x 10. Stay positive. 😀

    • littlemissnaughty says:

      Completely understand what you’re saying and I really admire you for being so open about it. I don’t know if I would be (I really have no idea if I can have kids and might never try to find out but still).

      Having said that, the problem with this story is that you cannot believe anything these people say and thus, I have very little sympathy for them. Just because you know they will make up sh*t for their show without blinking. If she’s honest here, kudos. But the fact that they’ve been selling their lives for so long kinda makes this seem like just another storyline, no matter if it’s true or not. And I find that to be incredibly unfair to every woman/couple who is struggling with this.

    • Dirtydishes says:

      Yes. There’s a natural progression to infertility. I have been trying for 10 yrs. unexplained infertility is a tough road. After 4 yrs naturally, they moved me to a routine, clomid for 3 months, then 4 rounds of IVF over a year and a half. Then came the discussions of donor eggs, etc. most reputable docs don’t move you through the process. If she has viable eggs then they would continue with IVF typically. If she doesn’t then she would need egg donor. She can obviously carry a child. She wants a surrogate. Excuses excuses excuses. Just be honest if you’re going to talk about it at all.

      • Marie Alexis says:

        Thank-you all for sharing your stories, Ladies. I’ve never been married and have no children. Two years ago, at 46, I met the man of my dreams, a gorgeous, loving, 39 year-old with no children either. Last year I went to a fertility clinic and was told (no surprise here!) that my eggs are no longer viable and the only choice for us would be IVF with donor eggs. Not including the IVF, ONE egg (I’m in Toronto, Canada, btw) costs $21,000. We have since decided to remain child-free and be the best Aunt and Uncle we can be. We have 9 beautiful nieces and nephews between the two of us…and happily, are getting married this Fall. I only wish I’d met my wonderful man at a younger age!

    • GoodNamesAllTaken says:

      Yes, to everyone who says they don’t really believe her. Her timeline doesn’t make sense to me, either, though a lot has changed since I was trying. And thank you all for your kind words. I’m ok with it now, but wouldn’t wish it on anyone. My heart goes out to anyone struggling with infertility, even Kim, if she is. (That was a great sentence. Sorry)

    • Bob Loblaw says:

      I’m infertile and it was very rough. I was “normal”, in all ways but no babies despite many years of trying. I went through it all and also ultimately found the only biological option was a donor egg, to the tune of $21k a shot for a maybe 30% chance (!) to have a bio kid for my hubby. They are certain I could carry a child to term, even now at 48, but I could never conceive. It’s a difficult disappointment to deal with but KK is using this issue for her show, she’s lying and crying wolf. It pisses me off because my pain is real, no kids, lots of painful treatments and BS, lots of money spent and lots of disappoinment. This kow thinks she can co-opt my reality to make bank. Puke.

  13. Ennie says:

    I had fertility problems, IVF did not work for us. Still, I have problems believing this is muh more than a carefully planned plot for their reality.
    If she was ready to get pregnant I think she would have let go of some procedures. I know I would just in case. Oh and some of those corsets too. I got so bloated due to hormones that I somehow do not believe them. IVF is not a walk in the park and this woman is in a constant pap stroll in tight clothes.

    • Jenna says:

      Yes, the bloating! I was so bloated after IVF, I can’t imagine doing the corset training during it.

      I don’t buy this IVF story, and if they are lying about fertility issues, than they are huge assholes. You know if Kim was suffering from infertility issues, there would be a whole episode or E! special dedicated to it.

  14. Jayna says:

    If anyone falls for this scripted story line, you deserve the Kardashians.

    They’ve been setting it all and leaking stuff for months on end so that when Kimmie uses a surrogate no one judges that it’s purely for shallow purposes, not medical or infertility. I’ve been saying it for months and it’s been so obvious what she and momager were doing.

    • Nick says:

      Yup. She should just own it. I want another child but i hated being pregnant and fortunately, I have the resources to pay for a surrogate. Instead she lies and lies.

      • Anare says:

        My thoughts exactly. Some women love being pg others don’t. No shame. A couple years after my second child I freely said that if someone laid another baby in my arms I would take it but I was not interested in a 9 month pregnancy again. And I didn’t have any complications. I just didn’t embrace it.

  15. QQ says:

    We’ve been calling this Turd out for Months, she was laying this out and we’ve smelled it for at least a few months, the fact we are now supposed to believe that this woman who STAYS acting like/bringing up in conversations about “struggles” and “hardships” (ffs she compared her pregnancy “ordeal” to Bruce being Transgender and feeling as though he was in the wrong body??!!) how HARD it was for her to be pregnant and what a terrible predicament and how God brought her down to her knees and all this other trash, we’re supposed to believe she wanted nothing more than look like a Hot Dog About to Burst (cause she can’t dress her pregnant short body?) again??

    The same Woman that wouldn’t change a diaper or wake nights?? LOL I bet they only want another kid to call him/her south and dress in all white is all… aka a Matching Baby Purse

    Yeah, NO You Tried It

    • Dawn says:

      LOL and you hit the nail on the head. I think she wants a boy to call him Easton and he will probably want to call his son God too. Who knows with these two.

  16. Ankhel says:

    It’s perfectly normal for a couple to use a little time to get pregnant, especially if the woman is over thirty. Kim started talking about ferility issues just months after she supposedly began trying again. You know, after having a baby, with no problems conceiving. I smell lies and a scripted story, but – gasp! She wouldn’t!

    • CarrieUK says:

      My husband and I are struggling to conceive our second child after a very early on miscarriage a few months ago for no reason. Our first munchkin was a total surprise, this second one though…..innit for the long haul, so saying ‘having one means you can do it again easy’ isn’t true.

      However I do think Kimya are bullsh*tting everyone, which is sad.

      • Ankhel says:

        I did not mean to say that having a baby is some guarantee for continued fertility in the near future, except that it’s usually an indicator. Here’s hoping the best for you and your husband, good luck to you.

      • Bob Loblaw says:

        Fertility issues are real, difficulty conceiving a second child is real, Kim however, is full of krap, more krap than any Diaper Genie could ever handle.

  17. NerdMomma says:

    Her nose is so unreasonably tiny. Her original nose was so beautiful.

  18. BengalCat2000 says:

    I agree with other posts that this is another story line. Their popularity is waning and anything to gain public sympathy seems to be their usual ploy. At least we will be spared her horrible maternity clothes. Having said that, I do have a lot of sympathy for people who struggle with pregnancy. But if another tw@t asks me why in the world I don’t want children, they will get a history lesson on the Mental illness that afflicts both sides of my family. These two just seem too self-absorbed to have kids, ugh.

  19. NewWester says:

    I have to wonder if it is actually the surrogate who is not getting pregnant and not Kim.

  20. Dawn says:

    I don’t believe word one that comes out of his mouth or Kardashian’s mouth. We all knew the surrogate was coming down the road a year ago. No one should believe her or doubt that a surrogate will be used. They are the queen of stunts after all.

  21. veronica says:

    I take everything coming from a Kardashian with a healthy dose of salt but if this is true, I feel for her. We’ve been trying for almost a year for baby2 and it sucks when you time everything right and you get your period and/or see a big fat negative in a pregnancy test. So demoralising and heartbreaking. I don’t buy the argument that just because she complained and hates being pregnant with North means she doesn’t want to do it again. I was lucky and had a pretty easy pregnancy but it can suck a bag of dicks sometimes but that doesn’t mean you wouldn’t do it all over again in a heartbeat to have another child. 9 months of crap is worth the lifetime of joy a child can bring.

  22. Kiki says:

    Can I ask a question not pertaining to this story, but is anyone buying Kanye West music anymore? I just want to change the subject, cause I had it with Kim, her baby North and her superficial nacississ ways.

    • Josephine says:

      I think he has a new album coming out b/c there was some talk about the title of his album. I think he’s doing more producing now than music, as his last albums were less well received than the earlier ones. I do think he is thought to have talent among music types. But I don’t think anyone is placing him in any top ten list despite his own contention of being God-like.

      What I find interesting is the dead silence about the sales numbers of her obscene book of selfies. It was 50% off the **second** day after release, so my guess is that the numbers were not good.

    • Tiffany :) says:

      His music sales have gone down sharply in recent years, but that is also the overall trend in music sales for most everyone. His last album was released in 2013 and while it had critical acclaim, the sales dropped 80% in the second week out. I think it has only sold around 1 million in total since it came out. He has a new album titled SWISH that comes out in June.

      He released two singles this year. “Only One” with Paul McCartney only went to #35 in January. “All Day” is at #15.

      • Perfectly executed Chewbacca sound says:

        He’s also on FourFive Seconds, which was a pretty huge hit.

  23. chaine says:

    Maybe she already has so many foreign objects implanted in her body that her system simply won’t take on another…

  24. Dr.Funkenstein says:

    I’ll join the chorus, no way she was ever actually attempting to get pregnant. She didn’t want to gain weight, didn’t want to go through pregnancy again, etc. Par for the course for this Klan, they seem unable to be honest about even their most basic feelings. I guess there are folks stupid or naive enough to buy this blatant manipulation for ratings’ sake, but it’s still frustrating to witness.

  25. defaultgirl says:

    Sorry, but I think this fake heifer wasn’t pregnant the first time. She totally faked a pregnancy. She wore the fake belly suit and took predisone to bloat up. Beyonce taught her…. Now she is free and clear to use a surrogate again but without the drama of faking it.

  26. sara says:

    As someone who IS having trouble getting pregnant, she is really disgusting to even lie about something that affects so many women. It’s heartbreaking to can’t get pregnant. I would have more respect for KK if she was just honest instead of pretending to have fertility issues. I wish I had her resources and money to have access to the best fertility doctors. I don’t believe for one second she has any issues. She is a huge A-hole!

    This family has NO boundaries.

    I’m shocked! Shocked, I say. SHOCKED!

    If Kim were truly taking IVF, we’d see it. Nothing these people do is sacred or out of bounds. This is a plot point on her show and a means for her to have a child without gaining 70 lbs again. And to add to the chorus of yuck, tongue, YUCK, tongue!

  29. Anastasia says:

    I don’t believe for one second they’ve been doing IVF.

    These two are so gross!

    Pleaseogpleaseohpleaseohpleaseohplease let Kris be her surrogate. Pleaseohpleaseohplease let them want ratings that badly.

  32. Jennifer Grady says:

    The world already has enough problems without those two procreating….again.

  33. Beth says:

    To be honest, I am surprised she even wants a second one. North is obviously an accessory to Kim and was used as an anchor to further root the Kardashian clan’s relevancy, but why more? Does PMK think it makes Kim look more sympathetic/likable if she was the mom of multiple kids instead of just one? Why go through the hassle of feigning interest in another child when she can barely maintain the facade with her first one? From a harsh, cold business standpoint, cute little Nori attracts enough attention on her own; why the need for a spare child?

  34. Mdt says:

    When does she fit in the IVF around all her jet setting? You can’t fly during that period of time, it decreases the chance of the embryo implanting. Plus you are in and out of doctor’s office every couple of days. I don’t buy that she’s even completed 1 round of IVF.

  35. Nemo says:

    yeah, I don’t beleive that she actually tried to get pregnant again. the surrogacy story was planned.

    More lies.

    Long time lurker, first time poster. Everybody’s been calling this for MONTHS. Why not just admit to not wanting to be pregnant again or go with “the preeclampsia was a health risk so surrogacy is the best option”. Either of those would be better than talking about being “infertile” to gain sympathy from people and I am definitely the WRONG person for this lady to be crying crocodile tears to about infertility issues.

    Earlier this year, two days before my 31st birthday, I was diagnosed with stage 3 endometriosis (where the tissue in your uterus is growing elsewhere in your body). I had worsening pain for five months before getting any kind of diagnosis and the first of many ultrasounds. The endo was incredibly painful and it took months after that to get through the red tape of insurance and doctor visits. Three and a half months later, I finally had a laproscopic procedure to have an orange sized endometrioma taken out of my left ovary. The doctor was only able to save 10% of my ovary during surgery, which is allegedly the smallest amount they can leave that will still produce hormones (and possibly eggs). Since there is no cure for endo, I have to take birth control to try to prevent future growths. If I stop having periods, it’s supposed to slow down future growths…

    Because it’s really not a question of IF the endo will come back, it’s a question of WHEN. If I take birth control, I can’t get pregnant. If I go off birth control, the endo will grow back faster. If I ever tried IVF, the hormone shots would make the endo grow super fast. Of course, there is still the chance that my poor left ovary will just up and die and my body will go through menopause.

    And as if all that mindf***ery wasn’t bad enough, I work with children and have to be around families all day.

    So this lady can take ALL OF THE SEATS and stop pretending to have devastating female issues. Because crying yourself to sleep from the pain of endometriosis and all of the symptoms from being sick and worrying about surgery and recovery and paying all the hospital and doctor bills while having to take time off (because you are single and the only income coming in is from your job) and STILL having to get up in the morning to work and be in constant pain while taking care of other peoples’ children is ABSOLUTELY BRUTAL. And then having surgery and being able to only take a minimal amount of time off work and going back to full- time duties when your body is recovering from a seriously traumatic surgery? There are no words.

    Shame, shame, shame on these people for manipulating the truth to play the “sympathy” card for their “brand”. Your callous actions belittle the very real feelings of the people who ACTUALLY have to go through these things. Horrible people. All of them. Just horrible.

      Omg, I never put my personal stuff on these sites, but your story is so similar to mine. I just had laproscopy about a month ago. I was diagnosed as having stage 4 endo after YEARS of intermittent pain and 1 bad year of it. By the time it was diagnosed, it wasn’t completely treatable. I’m 100% unable to have children because my tubes have been destroyed by scar tissue. My ovaries are fixed to the pelvic wall in a place that makes sex painful for up to a week afterwards (there was only a window of 4 years in my life where I was able to have sex, but it’s been years since). My surgeon had to call in 2 more surgeons to assist, and they took 5 hours trying to separate all my organs. My left side they had to leave as a mass of scar tissue because it was either that or start removing organs. I’m devastated that I’ll never have a sex life or children (can’t afford IVF). I’m trying to decide if I want to go on hormones, which have nasty side effects…. And there’s no support because when you tell friends you have endo, it’s like “oh, that’s when you get bad cramps, right? You should go on the pill!” And I’m so angry that I was so ignorant of the disease and wasn’t diagnosed until it was this severe. I was only able to take 2 weeks off work because that’s all I could afford. I’m angry about so much and so sick of pain.

    • magicgolfcartride says:

      Isn’t it terrible? I too was diagnosed with stage 4 a year and a half ago, just 2 months into starting a new job. Yup, lost that job, which was the best I’ve ever had, and took me a year to find.

      My symptoms started around age 20, but didn’t get to the point where they were really interfering with my life until 24. I had most of the classic signs (excruciating periods being #1), and every doctor I went to during that time told me my suffering was NORMAL and just wanted to write me scripts for birth control + antidepressants for PMS. Ridiculous.

      Fast forward 4 years, and a big ovarian cyst landed me in the OR, where we finally learned what was going on. Like you, mememe, my tubes are destroyed, and my organs were all stuck together with scar tissue. The surgeons did the best they could to free everything up, though I lost my appendix (that’s ok – now when I have pain there, which is often, I can be sure it’s my ovary). But I’m certain it’s all gotten stuck back together with adhesions again because I have more pain now than I did before the surgery. My periods improved, but all the other pain is worse. Like the beast is due soon, and I have had uncomfortable pelvic tension and gnawing lower back pain for days. Thanks, retroverted uterus + obliterated cul-de-sac! I also love the stabbing colon pains that happen before I need to use the restroom sometimes, where all I can do is lock up, arch, whimper and breathe rapidly until the pain passes.

      Too bad birth control doesn’t work for me. Every time I’ve tried, it makes me depressed to the point of suicidal thoughts, as well as destroys my libido, my lady parts (constant spotting + urogenital atrophy = woo!), and my hair. I quit taking the last round 6 months ago and my hair is STILL falling out. At this point, I’ve lost almost half of it. Birth control sucks the joy out of life and I can’t feel excited or optimistic about anything while I’m on it. I also lose pretty much all my in-love feelings for my partner, which is very hard on our relationship. Given that, I have NO interest in trying harder treatments like Lupron. Those might actually make me attempt suicide instead of just thinking about it.

      It’s probably going to be adoption for us. My partner would prefer a bio child, but I’m not sold on putting my body or mind through the additional traumas of IVF, pregnancy and birth. I also struggle with the thought of passing on this nightmarish disease to a daughter. Surrogacy would be awesome to have as an option, but we don’t have Kartrashian money so…

      Right now, losing my ovaries to hysterectomy and suffering through premature menopause (I’m only 30) is my biggest fear. I know there’s HRT, but given my experience with birth control, I don’t feel reassured by that, at all. I am scared every day of what the monster inside is my pelvis is doing, and when my next surgery will be, especially since I cannot control the growth with hormone treatments.

      How cruel that the very thing I need to feel healthy and normal–estrogen–is also the thing that feeds this horrid disease.

      I feel your pain, ladies. I can’t imagine the strength it takes to care for other people’s children every day, Fishie, or to shoulder all of this on your own. You are a warrior. Good luck to you both. <3

    There is no way she has been on the hormonal regime ivf treatment entails. She would have blown up for starters. Her rubber bozzies would have doubled in size. We all would have seen it. I have been through it and its PMT x 100! I can’t stand the way she just tosses out lies. But then again I belive Kim has Narcissistic Personality Disorder and is the product of a Narcissistic Mother. There is no way this woman is going to risk losing her figure again. Its took her 1.5 years to get back to somewhere near the realm of where she was before she got pregnant the first time.

  40. jwoolman says:

    Kim lies about everything. Of course she’s lying about this. She has proven herself quite capable of extensive and detailed lies. She’s a pathological liar, and that’s what they do. I’m sure she doesn’t want to start over with body recovery from another pregnancy, she’s too obsessed with how she looks. A normal person would just say so. But Kim just has to spin tales.

    Baffling that she would want another kid – she doesn’t seem to particularly like the one she has now (and the kid doesn’t particularly like her). Maybe the pressure is all from Kanye – maybe he wants a boy. The only way to guarantee that is to select embryos outside the body.

  41. Whoo..I just got here, and can’t even walk across the room–the floor is covered with horse feathers and bull shuj!

  42. magicgolfcartride says:

    I think it’s a ruse. This site has been calling Kim’s scheme to cry infertility and use a surrogate to keep her figure, for months. Too bad she can’t actually use her fame for a good cause, instead of promoting the rot of American culture and entirely self-absorbed pursuits. I would give her some respect if she actually suffered from an infertility-causing disease like endometriosis, PCOS, or uterine fibroids, and used her fame to promote awareness of these diseases and advocate for more research.

  43. Bunny Love says:

    That she assumes we are idiots and don’t know what is really going on is galling.I would not be surprised if she was on birth control pills with or without Kanyes knowledge -although its probaly without -Kanye does and says some outrageous things but lying is a way of life for the Kardashians.Maybe this time G-d told her he doesn’t want to take away her hotness. My eyes are still burning from the tongues.
