Kim Kardashian West News: Kim Anxious to Give Birth As Baby Is Breech
Kim Kardashian West is almost at her ninth month of pregnancy, and the reality star is getting anxious to give birth. The 35-year-old celebrity also revealed on her own website earlier this week that her baby boy is in breech position, and she's been doing her best for him to turn.
It is not a secret to everybody that Kim is having much difficulties with baby no. 2. The Hollywood celebrity had issues with her placenta, and also fears that she has gestational diabetes, as seen on the preview of the upcoming "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" episode.
According to People, Kim now has another hurdle in her pregnancy, after the reality star shared the news that her baby is still in the wrong position, which is breech. The baby's face is still positioned upward, where he should have turned downward by the eighth month.
The new threat to Kim's pregnancy made the celebrity anxious, and is now considering having C-section, according to Business Standard. "So now, I will have to get a C-section. Or so I thought," Kim said.
Breech babies are usually delivered via C-section, but apparently, Kim is still looking for other ways to get her baby to turn. "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," Kim shared on her blog and her app.
Despite Kim pushing to deliver the baby normally, she still considers her baby's health as the top priority. "Obviously, if it's an emergency and for the safety of my son, I will get a C-section," she said. Kim is asking for prayers from her fans with her upcoming delivery, which is expected to fall on Christmas Day.
