Kim K On Her Post-Pregnancy Surgeries

Kim Kardashian West has revealed she underwent five surgeries caused by pregnancy after welcoming her oldest two children.

The reality star shares North, six, and Saint, four with her husband Kanye West and also later welcomed Chicago, 23 months and Psalm, seven months via surrogacy.

The mum of four has always spoke candidly about her pregnancy health scares and recently went into more detail about just how much she went through to complete her family.

Speaking in a video for her new SKIMS campaign, Kim said: "When I was pregnant with my daughter North, I had a condition called preeclampsia or toxemia, which is basically when the mom's organs start to shut down.

"The only way to get rid of that is to deliver the baby. At 34 and a half weeks, I had to go into emergency labour -- they induced me. North was four pounds. She was almost six weeks early."

Kim then suffered a series of post-birth complications after welcoming her firstborn.

"This is what women die from in childbirth," she added.

The star endured another difficult time when carrying Saint. She explained: "After my daughter was born, I still continued to do the process of freezing my eggs. I was able to get pregnant through that with my son Saint, and then I had two embryos left. I had the same condition, same awful delivery that I had with my first daughter.

"After that, I had to have five different operations within a year and a half to fix the damage that all of that did on the inside."

Doctors then refused to help Kim fall pregnant for a third time, meaning the family later turned to surrogacy.
