AceShowbiz - Kourtney Kardashian is hitting back at people commenting negatively on her pregnancy at the age of 44. In a new interview, "The Kardashians" star shared that she's unbothered by the criticism.
"Those comments don't affect me," she told Vanity Fair Italia for her cover story. Kourtney went on stressing that her pregnancy is a blessing, saying, "To those who make them, I just say: how dare you question God's plan?"
She also spoke about her experience with IVF. "I knew deep down that it wasn't the right thing," the Poosh founder explained. "And in fact, I kept telling [Travis Barker], 'If we're meant to have a baby, then it's just going to happen.' And so it was. When we stopped forcing the process, then it happened."
Kourtney also talked about how much she loves being a mom. "I love experiencing life through their eyes and doing with them all the things I did as a child. Going to Disneyland or even just touching sand for the first time," the reality TV star, who already has three children with ex Scott Disick, shared. "I love creating traditions and memories and making everyday things feel special and magical. Being able to do that now with Travis is a dream come true."
She additionally pointed out how this pregnancy differs from her previous ones. "Physically, I feel great. I like being pregnant. I'm obsessed with the idea of being pregnant!" the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" alum explained.
"But this time, unlike the other three, I was followed by a different group of doctors, who gave me many restrictions in the first months," she added. "No workouts, no Pilates, no caffeine, and no plane trips. Even no sex! I think all this caution made me a little afraid because, in the past, I never had to be so careful."
Last month, Kourtney revealed that she was rushed to the hospital for "urgent fetal surgery." She penned in an Instagram post, "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."
Kourtney added, "As someone who has had three really easy pregnancies in the past, I wasn't prepared for the fear of rushing into urgent foetal 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."
"Praise be to God. Walking out of the hospital with my baby boy in my tummy and safe was the truest blessing," she concluded.
