KOURTNEY Kardashian has shown off her growing baby bump in a new social media post.
In June, the Hulu star revealed that she was expecting her fourth child – her first with her husband, Travis Barker, 47 while attending a Blink-182 concert.
Weeks after the major announcement, the couple revealed that they would be having a baby boy.
While waiting for her son’s due date, Kourtney, 42, has kept busy.
In an Instagram Story on Thursday, the Lemme founder spent a sunny day at the beach.
Kourtney wore a black ʙικιɴι that completely showed off her belly while covering her eyes with a pair of sunglᴀsses.
The star floated in the water while taking in the sunlight.
Kourtney linked a Poosh – her health and wellness blog – article that discussed healthy dopamine hacks.
Her latest social media post came less than two weeks after Kourtney’s scary hospital visit.
‘I WASN’T PREPARED’
On September 1, Travis suddenly shared on Blink-182’s Instagram Story that he had to postpone some of his European dates due to an “urgent family matter.”
Two days later, Kourtney and Travis were spotted looking somber as they were leaving a hospital in Los Angeles, California.
Then on September 6, Kourtney revealed the reason she was at the hospital.
On her Instagram, she shared a black-and-white pH๏τo of Travis holding her hand while she was in a hospital bed.
She began her emotional caption: “I will be forever grateful to my incredible 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. 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.
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.
“Praise be to God. Walking out of the hospital with my baby boy in my tummy and safe was the truest blessing.”
ALL SET!
Since her hospital visit, Kourtney has been spending time at home with her family and continuing to prepare for her son’s arrival.
Fans suspect that Kourtney’s due date is sometime this fall.
On Wednesday, Kourtney shared the crib that her son will be using once he is born.
It was a modern design made of arched wooden bars.
The simple crib had a mattress inside and was placed in front of a large window in the baby’s nursery.
Along with her son, Kourtney has three other children with her ex-Scott Disick, 40: Mason, 13, Penelope, 11, and Reign, eight.
THAT’S THE TEA
On Monday, Kourtney gave fans a glimpse into her pregnancy routine including what she drinks.
She shared a few sH๏τs on her Instagram Stories of a glᴀss cup and her fancy tea set with images of green leaves and flowers.
Next to the white cups were tea bags of nettle leaf, peppermint, and rooibos.
She wrote: “My weekly herbal tea rotation during pregnancy.”
Kourtney linked to her Poosh site, which had an article about how she drank from a tea rotation suggested by Functional Medicine Nutritionist, Leona West Fox.
The rotation included four different herbal teas per week: nettle, rooibos, peppermint, and saffron.
Fox said: “This choice of teas helps provide overall support to digestion, mitigates or minimizes the intensity of any nausea, enhances antioxidant levels, provides the complete nutritional advantages of nettle, and also gives gentle, consistent mood and adrenal nourishment.”
