Before hinting she wasn’t “careful” about preventing pregnancy, Kourtney Kardashian recalled thinking she was expecting every month.
“Do you know, every month I think I’m pregnant? Then I’m not,” Kardashian, 47, said on the Thursday, November 12, episode of The Kardashians. “But I consistently get my period again after breastfeeding.”
Kardashian recalled being confused about her reproductive health.
“I’m still breastfeeding but I didn’t get [a period] once for 140 days. I thought I was in full menopause and then now I’ve gotten it the last three months every 28 days,” she continued. “So, I’m back. And so every month I’m like, ‘Am I pregnant?’”
Kylie Jenner, for her part, asked Kardashian if there was a chance her and Travis Barker could be expecting another baby. Kardashian didn’t rule out the possibility the pair would inadvertently expand their family after denying that the pair were “careful” about preventing pregnancy.
Kardashian shares kids Mason, 16, Penelope, 14, and Reign, 11, with ex Scott Disick. After candidly discussing their journey to become parents in the past, Kardashian announced in June 2023 that she was expecting a baby with Barker, 51.
Three months later, Kardashian revealed she was rushed to the hospital for emergency surgery prior to ultimately — and safely — giving birth. .
“I will be forever grateful to my incredible doctors for saving our baby’s life. I am eternally grateful to my husband who rushed to my side from tour to be with me in the hospital and take care of me afterwards, my rock,” she wrote via Instagram at the time. “And to my mom, thank you for holding my hand through this. As someone who has had three really easy pregnancies in the past, I wasn’t prepared for the fear of rushing into urgent fetal surgery.”
The Poosh founder continued, “I don’t think anyone who hasn’t been through a similar situation can begin to understand that feeling of fear. I have a whole new understanding and respect for the mamas who have had to fight for their babies while pregnant. Praise be to God. Walking out of the hospital with my baby boy in my tummy and safe was the truest blessing.”
Kardashian later discussed the health scare in detail, telling Vogue in October 2023, “That experience opened my eyes to a whole new world of pregnancy that I didn’t know about in the past. After I learned that insurance typically only covers two ultrasounds when you’re pregnant, I had no idea. I’ve always been lucky enough to do more than what insurance covers, and it’s one of those ultrasounds that saved my baby’s life.”
Kardashian and Barker welcomed their son, Rocky, one month later. While being asked about the pregnancy for his documentary Travis Barker: Louder Than Fear, released in August, the couple revealed they previously experienced a miscarriage.
“When we lost the baby, we were devastated,” Kardashian said in the documentary about how she found out she was pregnant six months into dating Barker in 2022. “We cried for days. All we wanted was to have a baby together.”
