That would really put a damper on her bikini photoshoots!
Kim Kardashian is due to give birth to her baby boy any day now, but the reality star is facing a difficult delivery and possible C-section because the little one is breech, she revealed in a new blog post.
I'm writing this blog while up at 4 A.M., a little anxious for my delivery as I'm entering into my 36th week of pregnancy," she began. "I've surrendered to the placenta issues and actually haven't been thinking too deeply about them lately. However, my latest concern is that my baby is breech, meaning he's in the wrong position for childbirth. His head is still up and it's supposed to be down. He was supposed to turn by 32 weeks. So now, I will have to get a C-section. Or so I thought!" she continued.
The E! starlet has now sprung into action and is trying every possible alternative method to get her unborn child to turn positions so she can have a natural birth.
"Since my baby is pretty big—over 7 pounds—maybe he's just too big at this point but I started intensive chiropractic work with Dr. Elliot Berlin. He is 'the' pregnancy chiropractor! I've learned so much from my few sessions with him. I have been doing everything I can to try to turn the baby. I lay practically upside down three times a day for 15 minutes. I play music in the right position and ice my belly in certain spots to get him to squirm out of the breech position. I even started acupuncture where I burn moxa (mugwort) on my pinky toe every day! I am even attempting hypnosis!" she shared.
The image-obsessed bombshell's main concern is the health of her son, but she is willing to admit she's also not wild about going under the knife. "Obviously, if it's an emergency and for the safety of my son, I will get a C-section—but if I don't need one, I'd rather not," she confessed.
If she gets a C-section, she won't be able to hit the gym the minute she pops like she planned!
