Kourtney Kardashian Barker Faces Scare As Unborn Baby Requires Urgent Surgery
In an emotional turn of events, Kourtney Kardashian Barker recently faced a harrowing ordeal involving her unborn child, resulting in an urgent surgery. The 44-year-old reality tv star and mother of three was confronted with a situation that left her understandably scared, but her story is one of resilience, family unity, and gratitude.
According to a reliable source, Kourtney received distressing news about her baby’s health, which necessitated immediate medical attention. “She didn’t want to talk about what was going on. She is doing okay now. She is still resting at home with Travis,” the insider revealed.
Travis Barker, the renowned Blink-182 drummer at 47 years old, swiftly returned home from his tour due to an “urgent family matter.”
Both Kourtney and Travis took to social media to share their journey with the world.
In an Instagram post featuring a touching black-and-white photo of their intertwined hands, Kourtney expressed her profound gratitude, saying, “I will be forever grateful to my incredible doctors for saving our baby’s life.” She also extended her heartfelt thanks to her devoted husband, Travis, who rushed to her side and continued to care for her after the surgery.
In her words, “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.”
Acknowledging the unwavering support of her mother, she added, “And to my mom, thank you for holding my hand through this.”
Kourtney opened up about the intense fear she experienced during this unexpected turn of events, sharing, “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. I don’t think anyone who hasn’t been through a similar situation can begin to understand that feeling of fear.”
Her newfound empathy for mothers who’ve had to fight for their babies while pregnant was evident as she concluded, “Praise be to God. Walking out of the hospital with my baby boy in my tummy and safe was the truest blessing. 🙏🏼🤍.”
Travis also expressed his gratitude on Twitter, saying, “God is great. I flew home for a life-threatening emergency surgery for our baby that I’m so grateful went well.” He thanked everyone for their support and reassured fans that the tour would resume as scheduled.
This miraculous baby will be Kourtney Kardashian’s fourth child, joining her family of three wonderful kids: sons Reign Aston, 8, and Mason Dash, 13, and daughter Penelope Scotland, 11, from her previous relationship with Scott Disick. Travis Barker, too, has his own family of three children, including son Landon, 19, daughter Alabama, 17, and stepdaughter Atiana, 24, from his past marriage with Shanna Moakler.
