Kim Kardashian wants a hysterectomy after she gives birth to her baby.

 

She’s said she might have her uterus removed.

Say what you will about old Kimbo K (we’ve discussed it, she’s totally cool for me to call her that), the woman’s honest.

In a new interview with C Magazine, Kardashian told interviewer Amanda de Cadenet that she’s likely to have a hysterectomy after she delivers the son she’s carrying.

She suffered so many complications during the pregnancy and birth of her daughter North, now 2, that even conceiving a second time was difficult.

Kardashian graces the September issue of C Magazine.

“I had this condition called placenta accreta. There were a couple of little operations to fix all that, so that created a little hole in my uterus, which I think made it really tough to get pregnant again,” she said.

“I would go to the doctor in Beverly Hills every day at five in the morning to get tested to see if I was ovulating.”

If she was, she and her husband Kanye West would have to get down to business immediately — something that really killed the mood.

“Yes, it takes the fun out of it. I’m like, ‘I’m ovulating, get home now!’ He’d be like, ‘Wait, I’m in the studio.'”

Doctors think she’s likely to have placenta accreta again.

According to Wikipedia (journalism!) the condition occurs when “all or part of the placenta attaches abnormally to the uterine wall.” It can cause heavy bleeding, and in some cases, the need for a hysterectomy to prevent life-threatening haemorrhaging.

“If the placenta grows a little bit deeper than it did last time, then they are prepared to have my uterus removed, which is a little scary for me,” Kardashian told C Magazine.

“I think we’re just gonna go day by day, see how overwhelming it is, and see how the delivery goes.”

She also spoke about her previous pregnancy and the cruel jibes about her weight that she endured.

One of Kim Kardashian’s pregnancy fashion choices that was ridiculed.

“I also feel lucky that as of right now, I don’t feel like I’m gonna get preeclampsia again, which last time [contributed to] not only the weight, but also the swelling that everyone would make fun of, not understanding that I had this condition,” she said.

It made her suddenly wary of the media and may go some way to explaining her hyper-controlled image and her signature unsmiling pout-face.

“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.”
