Everyone thinks Kim Kardashian didn’t want to get fat but actually, she didn’t want to die.
A hole in her uterus caused by the ripping fingernails of a medical professional was the last straw in a macabre conga-line of fertility issues for the woman who has everything.
An emergency after the birth of her first child, North, meant: "My doctor had to stick his entire arm in me and detach the placenta with his hand, scraping it away from my uterus with his fingernails," she wrote. After that, everything about her second pregnancy was complicated.
Threatened miscarriage. Endo. Pre-eclampsia. Placenta accreta. Failed surgeries.
It’s a list that would leave a lot of women – ordinary, feet-of-clay women – thinking that two kids were enough kids.
But Kim Kardashian is not an ordinary woman, and she wanted more babies. And so, she called someone. And she started researching and, two children later, she’s the self-confessed surrogacy whisperer for Hollywood’s elite.

Her sister, Khloé, sought her advice when her obstetrician told her that having a second baby would be complicated and risky for her health, too.
"I'm not gonna get into specifics on camera," Khloé said on an episode of The Kardashians. "But they said it's an 80 per cent chance I'll miscarry... [My doctor] said she would feel terrible putting [an embryo] in without warning me that most likely I wouldn't be able to carry."
