One month after Kourtney Kardashian’s emergency fetal surgery, the reality star is breaking her silence on what led to the procedure.
An ultrasound “saved [her] baby’s life,” the Poosh creator revealed to Vogue in an interview published Tuesday.
“That experience opened my eyes to a whole new world of pregnancy that I didn’t know about in the past. It was terrifying,” she said.
Kardashian, 44, explained that previously had “no idea … insurance typically only covers two ultrasounds when you’re pregnant.”
The “Kardashians” star noted, “I’ve always been lucky enough to do more than what insurance covers, and it’s one of those ultrasounds that saved my baby’s life.”
After Kardashian underwent surgery in September, she told her Instagram followers that she was “eternally grateful” for her husband Travis Barker’s support at the time.
The Blink-182 rocker had rushed home from his band’s European tour to be by his wife’s side.
After gushing over her “rock,” the Hulu personality concluded, “Praise be to God. Walking out of the hospital with my baby boy in my tummy and safe was the truest blessing.”

While Kardashian awaits her fourth child’s arrival, she told Vogue that she doesn’t have a birth plan besides “talking to the baby all the time and telling him, ‘Everything is going to be amazing.’”
She added, “I’m ready to go in, have the baby, and have the experience we’re meant to have.”

The “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” alum is already a mother to Mason, 13, Penelope, 11, and Reign, 8, with ex Scott Disick — and has been “surprised” by how much must-haves haven’t “changed since her previous” pregnancies.
Kardashian debuted her baby bump in June, one year after her and Barker’s wedding.
The duo conceived their first child together naturally after attempting — and stopping — the IVF process, with the expectant star telling haters in her Vanity Fair Italy cover story last week not to “question God’s plan.”
The Lemme creator went on to say that she will speak in more detail about her emergency surgery “sooner or later” since “it could help others.”
