It can't be that easy being Kim Kardashian and I don't mean that sarcastically. The reality television star may travel on a private jet and live in a huge mansion, but there's one thing she hasn't been able to achieve–having a second baby. It has been challenging for the 34-year-old to get pregnant. What I admire the most is that she has no problem with airing out her issues about conceiving the second time around. It's already difficult for women to deal with this on their own, but to live it out in the public eye can't be easy. What she said recently about her challenges with getting pregnant really made me admire her.

Hate me all you want for saying this, but Kim doesn't seem like an evil person to me. She may seem vain and a little out of touch with reality, but she wants what we all do–a family. In fact, you can tell that she's incredibly family-oriented and wants to give her daughter North a sibling. On the season premiere of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Kim was all about letting Kanye West's sperm "marinate" inside of her. Yes, that was a little TMI, but the girl is clearly on a mission!
She revealed in the episode:
I remember growing up being so close with my sisters, so I want siblings for North. Because it's been so tough, I'm seeing a fertility doctor to see, like, exactly when I'm ovulating and really increase my odds of getting pregnant naturally.
There are countless of women who can relate to her struggle. I respect Kim's honesty and openness about the subject. It also can't be easy dealing with this when you have an older sister who manages to get pregnant every other year! Kourtney has definitely had more luck in that department, but I'm not sure if she can say the same about having as stable of a relationship with her man Scott Disick.
Kim's answer is to "not stress" her fertility issue. She may also consider hiring a surrogate. It may not be ideal, but at least she'll have her second baby. I honestly feel like she should adopt if the situation doesn't work out for them. They have the means to provide a child with a wonderful home and family.
Whatever she decides, I truly think Kim deserves props for putting this out on the table. There aren't many things we can praise her on, but this is definitely one of them.
