The little child whose name has not been revealed is the famous couple’s second child.
Mrs West has been very open about complications surrounding her pregnancy.
The 35-year-old who was rumoured to be planning to get induced early, revealed before Thanksgiving that there was a chance she would have to get a C-section this time around because her baby was breech, meaning his body was turned in the womb.
Fortunately, Kim was able to undergo a procedure over the Thanksgiving-holiday weekend to have the baby turned in the correct direction, head pointing down. “This weekend I checked into the hospital and underwent a procedure called an ECV (External Cephalic Version, or a Version), which is done to manually turn the baby from a breech position to a head-down position,” she revealed in a Dec. 1 blog post.
“They gave me an IV with medication to relax my uterus, and then three doctors attempted to work together to turn the baby,” she continued. “There was a risk that my water might break or the baby’s heart rate could drop, in which case, an emergency C-section would then take place. I went in with my sisters and my husband. I was prepared for it all!”
Kim and Kanye, 38, have been married since May 24, 2014. The famous couple welcomed their first child, North West on June 15, 2013.
