Kourtney Kardashian revealed that she tried IVF five times before she gave birth to her and Travis Barker's son, Rocky.
The Poosh founder revealed she and Travis Barker were trying for a year before eventually letting nature take its course.Starr is a News Writer for InStyle. She has worked in pop culture and entertainment since 2017 and has been with InStyle since 2024.Kourtney Kardashian is no stranger to getting candid about her health and body struggles, and her recent pregnancy journey—which ended with her giving birth to her and Travis Barker's son, Rocky—is no exception.
The Poosh founder revealed that it was debilitating for her, too—so much so that she took a break from IVF altogether. "I stopped after a year of trying my body relaxed and I believed in God's plan for my life. Lots of prayers for whatever was meant to be for us. Also lots of optimizing my health. I know how hard it is to feel like you're not trying, but believing in God's plan and saying your prayers is so powerful. All the best!" she responded to the fan.
. After a routine scan, the 45-year-old was told that she needed the surgery."My doctor's like, 'There's nothing that you did wrong. It's not age-related. It's just a super rare thing that happened,'" she recalled. Barker wasn't able to be present for the surgery because he couldn't fly home in time from Europe .
The procedure ended up being a success for Kardashian. Despite ending up with a hole in her amniotic sac from the surgery, she was able to keep Rocky healthy. "I just feel so grateful how everything played out and for the doctors that really helped make the best decisions that really saved our baby," she said. "After this happened, I was like, ‘God's got this. We're good. This is a miracle, and we're just going to be super positive.
