Kim Kardashian Pregnancy Risks Baby #3 To Boost ‘Keeping Up with The Kardashians’ Ratings

Kim Kardashian is adamant that she wants to get pregnant again despite her doctor advising her that a 3^rd pregnancy could be life-threatening for her. One of the reasons for her impulsive decision could be because she wants to save the rapidly falling ratings of "Keeping Up With The Kardashians," which could lead to the cancellation of the reality show.

"I want my kids to have siblings," Kim Kardashian is heard saying in the latest sneak peek of the upcoming "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" episode, Metro reports. But the socialite also adds, "But the doctors don't feel like it's safe for me."

It is no secret that Kim Kardashian has had to face a fair bit of complications when it came to her first born child, North West. She had gained an abnormal amount of weight and also had an early-onset preeclampsia, which caused her to deliver six weeks earlier than her due date. Even though she had initially decided not to have another child, she changed her mind and luckily, has a comparatively easier second pregnancy.

Nevertheless, her doctor has strictly told her that he does not recommend Kim Kardashian to try for a third child as it could cause her to "bleed to death." Despite the warnings and her family's concerns for her health, Kim recently revealed that she wants to go for a uterus surgery so that she can have another child.

Kim Kardashian's decision has puzzled many people who are wondering why the reality star would want to put her life at risk since North West already has a little brother to play with. According to the sources at People Magazine, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are in a good place in their marriage after rumors of an impending divorce started swirling earlier this year. Hence, Kim wants to celebrate getting part her marital problems by conceiving a third child.

There are also talks about Kim Kardashian putting her life on the line to save her reality show, "Keeping Up With The Kardashians," whose ratings are experiencing a freefall right now. Even Kim's first-hand recount of her nightmarish night of the Paris robbery did nothing to boost viewership. Some insiders point out that Kim's 3^rd pregnancy could definitely make for "a great storyline for the show."
