The
E! star revealed today that she's reached unknown territory in her pregnancy
after finding out that her baby is breech.
"I've
surrendered to the placenta issues and actually haven't been thinking too
deeply about them lately. However, my latest concern is that my baby is breech,
meaning he's in the wrong position for childbirth," she wrote. "His
head is still up and it's supposed to be down. He was supposed to turn by 32
weeks. So now, I will have to get a C-section."
Except
not necessarily. The soon-to-be mother-of-two continued to share that she's
been doing some research and has been "doing everything I can to try to
turn the baby."
"I
lay practically upside down three times a day for 15 minutes. I play music in
the right position and ice my belly in certain spots to get him to squirm out
of the breech position," she continued. "I even started accupuncture
where I burn moxa (mugwort) on my pinky toe every day! I am even attempting
hypnosis!"
Luckily,
Kim notes that her doctor, Paul Crane, is one of the few
OB/GYNs to still deliver breech babies. However, "if it's an emergency and
for the safety of my son, I will get a C-section—but if I don't need one, I'd
rather not."
The
brunette beauty is currently 36 weeks along and carrying a 7-pound baby,
according to her post. Although admitting to having some jitters, Kim is lying
low and currently trying to recover from a cold with her baby girl North West.
"Sick
in bed kind of day... Me & my Northie," she tweeted.
