Reality TV
queen Kim Kardashian has revealed doctors could remove her uterus
when she delivers her second baby. While she
was pregnant with daughter North, now two, she suffered from placenta accreta,
in which the placenta attaches itself to the uterus with blood vessels and is
not completely expelled during the birth.
Kardashian,
34, told C maga
zine: "They think I'll have placenta accreta again, so if
the placenta grows a little bit deeper than it did last time, they are prepared
to have my uterus removed, which is a little scary for me.
"I
think we're just go go day by day, see how overwhelming it is, and see how the
delivery goes."
On Keeping
Up With the Kardashians she discussed the struggles she and husband Kanye
West, 38, had conceiving again, and she told the magazine that during childbirth
she had a "couple little operations" in which doctors "created a
little hole in my uterus, which I think made it really tough to get pregnant
again."
She also
confessed she was hurt by criticism of her weight gain during her first
pregnancy, saying: "I couldn't help it, and everyone would say, 'She can't
stop eating.'"
She said she
went up to 12st 12lbs (81.8kg) not 15st (95.5kg), as was reported at the time,
and went on: "It really took a toll after the fact, when I was losing
weight.
"I was
dedicated, but it changed the way I viewed wanting my picture taken. Before I
was always smiling, and so into being out and about.
"After
I had the baby, I was like, these are the same people that made fun of me, and
posted the stories that were so awful, calling me fat for something I couldn't
control
"I
don't want to smile for them. I don't want to be out."
But she is
confident that she will not bloat so much in the run-up to the birth of her son
in December.
She
explained: "I also feel lucky that, as of right now, I don't feel like I'm
going to get pre-eclampsia again," saying that last time in contributed to
"not only the weight but also the swelling."
