Khloé Kardashian reflects on her experience about surrogacy pregnancy

Khloé Kardashian has recently shared her experience of surrogacy during an appearance on the SHE MD podcast on May 7.

The reality star, who welcomed her baby boy via surrogacy, explained why it was difficult for her to view pregnancy as a real thing.

"So, it was a couple days before Thanksgiving and I ended up doing the transfer. And then the first week of December, I found out that my ex was actually having a baby with somebody else," recalled Khloé while speaking of former partner Tristan Thompson who cheated on her with another woman.

The Good American founder revealed, "I never told my family I did the initia embryo transfer. I wasn't going to tell anyone until it took, because I wanted to surprise everyone. So no one knew."

Reflecting on surrogacy, Khloé mentioned, "The entire pregnancy of my surrogate, I admittedly buried my head in the sand and I said to Dr. A, 'I can't do this.' And the whole surrogacy pregnancy, I was really detached."

"I couldn't really face it. I very much think I was in denial that this is happening," continued the 39-year-old.

Khloé pointed out, "I didn't get to really attach during the pregnancy part, but I had one of the world's best surrogates."

The reality star reportedly welcomed her son Tatum via surrogacy in July 2023. However, she confessed she still had difficulty bonding with her son during a season 3 episode of The Kardashians.

"Compare it to True and him, it’s a different experience. The connection ... took days with True," she noted.

Khloé added, "With him, it's taking months and we still don’t have a complete bond."
