    Kim Kardashian Said She "Had To Have Five Different Operations" After Giving Birth To Her Second Child

    "I would have gone through the same pain and back for the result of having my babies."

    In a new promo for SKIMS, Kim shared, "When I was pregnant with my daughter North, I had a condition called pre-eclampsia 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 1/2 weeks I had to go into emergency labor, they induced me," she continued. "North was four pounds, she was almost six weeks early. After I delivered, my placenta never came out, so that's called placenta accreta. So my placenta grew inside my uterus and that is what women die from in child birth."

    "Well, after that, I actually had to have five different operations within a year and a half to fix the damage that all of that did from the inside. But on the outside, I was filming and photoshoots, and you know."

    "I asked my doctors, 'Can I do it one more time?' and they were like, 'We won't even put an embryo in you, that would be like, malpractice.' And I opted to have a surrogate to use the last — two different surrogates — to use the last two embryos that we had."

    "I grew up with so many siblings that I just love being in a big family environment and I would have gone through the same pain, you know, and back for the result of having my babies. It was all worth it," she concluded.

    Now that's what we call a strong woman ❤️.
