Kim Kardashian has admitted in an interview with "Today" show's Matt Lauer that doctors advised her to get a surrogate for second pregnancy. The "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" reality star said, though, that she still seeks to naturally get pregnant for her second child, according to People magazine.
In an interview that aired Monday on NBC, Kim told Lauer, "They have recommended to me to get a surrogate, and I would like to hold out a little bit longer, and still try.
"I still have hope, so I'm just going to keep on trying."
Kim's mom, Kris Jenner, allegedly joked that big sister, Kourtney, should be the said surrogate.
Kim has always been open that she and husband, Kanye West, have been hard at work in conceiving a sibling for daughter, North. In January, the 34-year-old reality star told People, "More kids can't come soon enough. We've really been trying for another kid."
North's mom did admit conceiving has not always been easy for her. She shared, "They say if you've been trying [to have a baby] for a year, then you usually need a little bit of help. I had a tough delivery, so I understand what my challenges are."
Kim even admitted to trying "500 times for a second pregnancy," according to People. The Daily Mail revealed that Kim had a part of her placenta removed after North was born in June 2013.
Kim shared in the "Today" interview that she and Kanye are not closing doors on the possibility of adopting. She does not forget to count her blessing of having 22-month old North. According to the star, she has always been appreciative of being a mother.
She shared, "I think you get over it to the point where I'm so blessed that I have one and I don't want to take my focus off of her so much."
North turns two years old in June. And it's no secret that dad, Kanye, has always been protective of her daughter's well-being.
Kim fondly shared, "If something's really high up, he [Kanye] has to make sure there's a lock on it [because he says], 'When she gets bigger, what if she can reach it?' And I'm like, 'We have years before that's going to happen. You don't have to safety-proof [yet].'"
