Kourtney Kardashian is sharing details of her family’s emergency.
After Blink-182 announced Sept. 1 that Travis Barker would be leaving the band’s European tour early to deal with an “urgent family matter,” the pregnant reality star detailed her hospitalization and fetal surgery that saved their baby boy.
“I will be forever grateful to my incredible doctors for saving our baby’s life,” Kourtney wrote on Instagram Sept. 6. “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.”
She also acknowledged mom Kris Jenner, saying, “And to my mom, thank you for holding my hand through this.”
“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,” Kourtney continued. “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.”
