Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker aren’t done making headlines—or babies. Fresh off the chaos of emergency fetal surgery and the birth of their son Rocky, the couple is reportedly itching to expand their already oversized blended family. And this time? Kourtney’s got her heart set on a girl.
Rolling the Dice on Parenthood—Again
The Kardashian-Barker clan isn’t exactly a modest affair. Between Kourtney’s trio from her past with Scott Disick and Barker’s own set of offspring, their home is already a high-stakes Brady Bunch situation. But sources close to the reality TV queen say she’s eager to add another little one to the mix.
According to insiders, Kourtney would be thrilled with a daughter—or even twins.
“They both think having twins would be a huge plus, either a boy and a girl or twin girls,” said the source. “The exciting thing is, if they go the surrogate route, that’s actually totally doable.”
The Surrogacy Question
For now, Kardashian and Barker are reportedly keeping things traditional, hoping for a natural pregnancy. But if that doesn’t work? Science is waiting in the wings.
“It’s worked out well for Kim and Khloé,” the insider noted, referring to Kourtney’s sisters, who both expanded their broods with the help of surrogates. “Kourtney has seen all the positives firsthand.”
Given her own experience with pregnancy complications, it’s not hard to see why she might be considering the option. Kardashian’s last pregnancy wasn’t a smooth ride—she underwent emergency fetal surgery to address a rare medical condition in utero, a moment she later described as both terrifying and surreal.
From Crisis to Clarity
During a June 2024 episode of The Kardashians, Kourtney revealed how serious the situation was.
“It is super rare, the condition that he had—but it is also super rare and lucky that we caught it,” she explained. Despite the life-saving surgery, complications lingered, and the reality star admitted that “the fluid in his lungs actually did start coming back” after the procedure.
She credits prayer and positive thinking for helping Rocky pull through, saying her faith played a major role in his health turnaround.
Barker’s Protective Instincts
The usually laid-back Blink-182 drummer wasn’t so chill when it came to his son’s health. In the same Kardashians episode, filmed before Rocky’s birth, Barker admitted he was a wreck.
“I don’t want him to come out early,” he said. “I want to make sure his lungs are perfect, everything’s perfect.”
Despite the high-stakes pregnancy, Rocky arrived safe and sound on November 1, 2023. And for Kourtney? It was everything she had ever dreamed of.
“Everything we’ve been through to get to this moment just feels so surreal,” she gushed. “I’m so happy in my blissful baby bubble.”
One Big, Beautiful, Chaotic Household
Before Rocky came along, the couple took a measured approach to merging their families. Living separately but close by, they prioritized stability for their kids from past relationships. But with their new arrival, they finally took the plunge.
In a Kardashians episode filmed months before Rocky’s birth, Kourtney explained the shift.
“It feels like we kind of figured out a plan for now,” she said. “We’re going to move into his house, which is a block away, and then redo my house at the same time so that we can all be together, living together under one roof with the baby.”
Even after the health scares, the couple’s baby fever hasn’t cooled. Whether it’s another pregnancy or a modern medical miracle, it looks like the Kardashian-Barker circus is gearing up for yet another act.
