Approximately a week later, on September 6th, Kourtney Kardashian shared on Instagram that she had undergone “urgent fetal surgery” to safeguard their unborn child.
In her Instagram post, Kardashian expressed a newfound appreciation and respect for mothers who have had to confront challenges to protect their babies during pregnancy. She acknowledged, “Praise be to God,” and conveyed her profound gratitude for safely leaving the hospital with her baby boy still safely nestled in her womb, considering it the most significant blessing.
In an interview with Vogue on Oct. 17, Kardashian credited an ultrasound for catching the issue with her baby that required surgery, saying, “That experience opened my eyes to a whole new world of pregnancy that I didn’t know about in the past.”
“It was terrifying,” she said of the experience. “After, I learned that insurance typically only covers two ultrasounds when you’re pregnant, I had no idea. I’ve always been lucky enough to do more than what insurance covers, and it’s one of those ultrasounds that saved my baby’s life.”
