Pregnant Kourtney Kardashian Is Home After Undergoing ‘Urgent Fetal Surgery’

Kourtney Kardashian, 44, announced in mid-June that she’s having her first child with husband Travis Barker, 47, at a Blink-182 concert at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles. The eldest Kardashian sister broke the news by holding up a sign that read, “Travis I’m Pregnant,” which definitely got the entire stadium’s attention. And based on her timeline, Kourt could be giving birth literally any day now.

Her hubby even hopped off stage to give her a hug and a kiss upon seeing the sign. Objectively, it was a very cool announcement, and it probably pays homage to one of Blink-182’s most iconic music videos. Later, Kourtney posted a clip showing the couple finding out their baby’s sex, and it is truly the cutest thing you ever did see.

ATM, Kourtney appears to be very far along in her pregnancy, and while her exact due date is still under wraps, the soon-to-be mother of four is enjoying every last bit of pregnancy. She and Travis appeared to have one last celebration this weekend—a Disney-themed baby shower. And while it was socially-distanced, according to Kourtney’s Instagram stories, it looked like the happiest place on Earth!

Kourtney and Travis have also been talking about having a baby together for a while, so this is, overall, very exciting news. Here’s everything to know about their pregnancy so far:

They had a Disney-themed baby shower.

One thing about the Kardashian sisters? They know how to throw a themed party. On September 24, Kourtney and Travis shared Instagram Stories of their Disney-themed baby shower—complete with a Dapper Dans-adjacent quartet and plenty of Mickey Mouse balloons, per PEOPLE.

The shower was thrown by event planner Mindy Weiss, according to PEOPLE, and Khloe and Kim Kardashian were also in attendance to support their sister. The party was decked out in decor, including notes of well-wishes for the couple and baby hanging from trees, per Kourtney’s Instagram.

Eagle-eyed fans spotted a note addressing “Baby Rocky,” per TMZ, in one of the photos The Kardashians star shared.This may just be a nickname based off of Travis’ profession, but it’s certainly…interesting.

It also appears the shower was socially distanced, according to Kourtney’s Instagram stories from the event. One guest shared it was a “social distance shower,” on their Instagram story (which Kourtney later reshared). In the photo, Travis also appears to be double masked.

With rising cases of COVID this fall, and Kourtney’s recent emergency fetal surgery, it makes sense the couple is being extra cautious as the Kardashians star wraps up her pregnancy.

Kourtney had urgent fetal surgery this month.

In early September, Blink-182 postponed several of their shows in the U.K. The band posted a statement on Instagram explaining that Travis had to return to the U.S. for an “urgent family matter.” Upon hearing this news, many fans speculated whether Kourtney had gone into labor (if you’ve been keeping up with the Kardashian’s IG, you’ll know she’s very far along).

However, Kourtney didn’t give birth, but she did, unfortunately, go to the hospital for “urgent fetal surgery,” per her IG.

“I will be forever grateful to my incredible doctors for saving our baby’s life. 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. And to my mom, thank you for holding my hand through this,” she wrote on a post of her hand holding Travis’ in the hospital.

“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. I have a whole new understanding and respect for the mamas who have had to fight for their babies while pregnant.”

Kourt added that baby was still safe in her belly. “Praise be to God. Walking out of the hospital with my baby boy in my tummy and safe was the truest blessing. 🙏🏼🤍.”

She’s since returned home, and is “feeling better” and “happy to have Travis back home too,” a source told People. Read on for when you might be able to expect Baby Barker

Their baby announcement was a callback to “All The Small Things.”

The Kardashians are masters at curating their publicity, and Kourtney’s pregnancy announcement might have seemed spontaneous for some, but I’m guessing it was very carefully planned.

The sign that the Lemme Gummies founder held at Travis’ show was extremely similar to a moment in Blink-182’s “All The Small Things”music video. The video features the band surrounded by fans holding signs at several moments, and one sign reads “Travis I’m Pregnant.” Kourtney hasn’t outwardly confirmed she meant to mimic the iconic moment, and some fans are speculating if Travis was totally surprised by her announcement, but I’d say it was all thoroughly planned. A source also recently told PEOPLE that her family has known about the pregnancy for “a while.”

They’ve been together since January 2021.

Kourtney and Travis’ relationship has been going strong for several years. After a few flirty comments were exchanged on the ‘Gram (as these things typically go), the couple confirmed their relationship in January 2021. By October of the same year, they were engaged and got officially hitched in May 2022.

Travis and Kourtney have wanted to have kids for a while.

It’s been a long time coming. In 2020, a fan asked the Poosh founder if she was pregnant via Instagram, to which Kourtney responded “No I wish.”

Later, in October 2021, shortly after the couple first got engaged, a source told E! News that they would “love nothing more than to have a baby together.”

In March 2022, a segment on an episode of The Kardashians also revealed that the couple was exploring IVF. In another episode, Kourtney also commented on the effect of social media on her hopes for getting pregnant, telling her mom: “It’s so rude to comment on people when you have no idea what they’re actually going through.”

Naturally, the couple was very excited to announce their pregnancy. Kourtney captioned a recent Instagram picture, which revealed her baby bump, “Overwhelmed with gratitude and joy for God’s blessing and plan.” and Travis similarly commented: “God is great 🙏❤️.”

The couple has six other children from previous relationships.

Both Kourtney and Travis have three children from previous relationships. Kourtney is the mother of three children with her ex-boyfriend Scott Disick: sons Mason, 13 and Reign, 9, and daughter Penelope, 11. Fun fact: Mason and Reign share a birthday, December 14.

Travis, similarly, shares two children with his ex-wife Shanna Moakler: his son Landon, 19, and daughter Alabama, 17. He also has a very close relationship with his former stepdaughter Atiana De La Hoya, 24, Shanna Moakler’s daughter.

Kourtney’s due date is probably later this year.

Kourtney has not confirmed an exact due date for her baby, but it’s likely that they will be born sometime between October and December 2023, given that she’s announced her pregnancy publicly.

Most pregnant people announce their pregnancies around 12 weeks. If Kourtney was exactly 12 weeks when she announced her pregnancy, that means her due date is around late December 2023.

She’s having a baby boy.

It’s now clear that Kourtney will be having a boy, and she is very excited. She posted an Instagram video with Travis, showing blue confetti exploding as he hits the cymbals, and it is everything.

“Kourtney can’t wait to be a [new] mom again. Her older kids are excited about the baby too,” a source recently told PEOPLE.
