Why can't Kim Kardashian have a baby naturally?
Kim Kardashian decided to use a surrogate for her third child Chicago.
She previously suffered pregnancy complications including placenta accreta - a condition where the placenta grows too deeply into the uterine wall.
Doctors advised that it wouldn't be safe for her to get pregnant naturally again.
Kim's previous surrogate appeared in an episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians but her identity wasn't completely revealed.
Kim announced the birth of Chicago on January 15, 2018, with an emotional blog post in which she said she was "incredibly grateful" to her surrogate for giving her the "greatest gift."
