Kim Kardashian confirms she is pregnant with second child
KIM Kardashian has confirmed she and husband Kanye West are expecting their second child just hours after it emerged that she was “exhausted” by trying to get pregnant.
KIM Kardashian has confirmed she and husband Kanye West are expecting their second child.
The star confirmed the news in tonight’s mid-season finale of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, which has just aired in the US.
In the scenes teasing the second half of KUWTK’s season, Kim told her family: “I just got the blood test back and I am pregnant!”
The official KUWTK Twitter account congratulated the 34-year-old immediately after the teaser had aired.
Kim, who is already mother to 23-month-old North West has been seen wearing baggy clothing in recent weeks, but the news still came as a surprise to her fans.
Kim has long spoken of her desire to get pregnant again, telling her doctor in a recent KUWTK episode: “I’m, like, so over it,” she told her doc. “Like, I’m exhausted, so I’m sure everyone gets to that point. I’m like, ‘Okay, I’m done.’”
The episode filmed earlier this year when she was sporting her icy blonde locks shows her doctor shows the star an ultrasound of her ovaries and explains the next steps in her ongoing fertility treatment.
She added that she and Kanye have sex “500 times a day” in her quest to give North a sibling.
“I complain so much about how I hated being pregnant, and I never thought I would be begging to be pregnant,” Kim told sister Kendall Jenner on an episode of KUWTK in April.
“Trying for baby number two is just not fun like baby number one … I’m like, ‘I’m ovulating in five minutes! Get over here!’”
She added to Khloe: “I was like, ‘I’m ovulating today!’ So I made [Kanye] come to my photo shoot. You know what, I don’t feel bad about that for one second. You gotta get it in where you can get it in.”
Kardashian is said to have been undergoing IVF treatments since early this year.
West announced the couple’s first pregnancy in New Jersey in 2012 when he referred to Kardashian as his “baby mama” while performing on stage.
The pair recently celebrated their one year wedding anniversary.
