Kourtney Kardashian is taking it easy as she prepares to welcome her first baby with Travis Barker — but that’s no cause for concern.
“Kourtney is doing really well health wise, the bed rest is just a precaution,” an insider exclusively tells Us Weekly after the reality star, 44, missed sister Kim Kardashian‘s 43rd birthday party.
Kourtney, who shares kids Mason, 13, Penelope, 11, and Reign, 8, with ex Scott Disick, is expected to give birth soon. “She is due in the next couple of weeks,” the source adds. “They’re not sure since it isn’t going to be induced, but her due date and her doctor are saying within the next two weeks.”
Kourtney has kept her followers up to date about major milestones amid her fourth pregnancy. She announced in June that she is expecting a baby with Barker, 47, by holding up a handwritten sign at a Blink-182 concert that read, “Travis, I’m pregnant.” That same month, the couple confirmed that they are having a son.
The Poosh founder originally had plans to join Barker on tour overseas. However, Barker surprised fans in September when he abruptly flew back home. Kourtney revealed days later that she was rushed to the hospital ahead of her fourth child’s arrival.
Kourtney said; “I thank the doctors for saving our baby’s life. 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,” Kourtney wrote via Instagram.
“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 Kardashian said she remains focused on staying calm, adding, “I’ve finally been able to let go of the fear and worry that everybody else put in us because of this pregnancy. I’m ready to go in, have the baby, and have the experience we’re meant to have.”
