Kourtney Kardashian's Journey to Motherhood: Navigating Through 5 Failed IVF Cycles

Socialite Kourtney Kardashian has candidly shared her journey through the challenges of IVF, disclosing her struggle with five "failed IVF cycles" before welcoming her baby boy into the world.

In a recent interactive session with her followers on Instagram, Kourtney opened up about her trials, as reported by 'Female First UK'. With her husband Travis Barker, Kourtney, now the mother of six-month-old Rocky, revealed on Instagram, "I stopped after a year of trying (5 failed IVF cycles, 3 retrievals). My body relaxed, and I believed in God's plan for my life. Lots of prayers for whatever was meant to be for us. Also, lots of optimising my health. (Prayer and heart emoji) I know how hard it is to feel like you're not trying, but believing in God's plan and saying your prayers is so powerful."

According to ‘Female First UK’, Kourtney faced the necessity of emergency foetal surgery before giving birth to her youngest son in 2023. Reflecting on this experience, the brunette beauty, who shares Mason, 14, Penelope, 11, and Reign, 9, with Scott Disick, expressed on Instagram, "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 the tour to be with me in the hospital and take care of me afterward, my rock. 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 foetal surgery. 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," she added.
