Kim Kardashian and Kanye West 'expecting a baby girl via surrogate'

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West still haven’t publicly commented on claims that they are expecting their third child via surrogate, however, the sex of their third baby has now been reported as well as a due month.

Speaking to TMZ, a source has said that Kim and Kanye, who are already parents to four-year-old North and 18-month-old Saint, are set to welcome another baby girl in January.

Kim has always been vocal about her desire for a large family, however, she suffered with placenta accreta, where the placenta grows into the muscle of the uterus, during both of her previous pregnancies.

As a result, doctors advised Kim not to risk carrying a third child as it could kill her.

It is believed that the showbiz couple turned to surrogacy instead, hiring an unnamed woman through an agency to carry their baby for $45,000, according to reports.

Speaking to People magazine, a source previously said of the surrogate mother: “The entire family is over the moon. Kim had been looking for a surrogate for months until recently when she found the perfect candidate.

“Given her health scares in the past, Kim felt the need to hire a surrogacy agency that helped serve as the liaison in finding a healthy woman who would be a great surrogate option for her and Kanye.

“Both of them have been super involved in the process.”

Insiders have claimed that the surrogate must stick to a list of strict rules whilst pregnant with Kim and Kanye’s baby, including not applying hair dye, drinking more than one caffeinated drink per day, or handling cat littler and restricting her sexual activity.

Discussing surrogacy recently, Kim said: “I think I always knew that surrogacy was an option, but I didn’t think it was that realistic of an option, and now I feel like that’s my reality.”

However, in her most recent interview she refused to confirm the reports, adding: “We’re definitely trying. We are hoping so.

“There have been a lot of things said and Kanye and I have not confirmed anything.”
