According to the Kardashian West app “Mother and son are doing well,”
Though they haven’t released a name yet, the couple has promised not to name their son South. However, while Kardashian West, 35, loves the Easton, she admitted it likely would not work as West, 38, wasn’t a fan.
“I don’t think we’ll go another direction,” she said.
The newest addition to the Kardashian/West family will be joining 2year old North who has been prepped for her role as a big sister
“We read books with her about getting a baby brother and a new sibling all the time! We always say goodnight to baby brother,” Kardashian West wrote on her website in October.
But giving their baby girl a sibling wasn’t easy.
The couple have been open about the challenges they faced to conceive, including Kardashian West’s successful in vitro fertilization treatment.
“Kim also had three surgeries to repair her uterus,” a source said “The inner lining had been so damaged that she was told conceiving on her own wasn’t possible.”
Kardashian West, announced her pregnancy in May, later revealed she faced the possibility of a hysterectomy following the birth of her second child.
“They think I’ll have placenta accreta again, so if the placenta grows a little bit deeper than it did last time, then they are prepared to have my uterus removed, which is a little scary for me,” said Kim.
From the start of her pregnancy, the Keeping up with the Kardashian star has been putting on tight dresses that showed her baby bump and reflected her confidence.
“This time around, I know what I like — plus, I am confident and not trying to hide my bump. I actually want to accentuate it,” she wrote on her website in September.

“I think you all know me well enough to know I would document the process if I got a surrogate,” she wrote. “Everyone’s body is different, every pregnancy is very different! I’ve learned to love my body at every stage! I’m going to get even bigger & that’s beautiful too!”
In October, Kardashian West celebrated her Troop Beverly Hills-themed baby shower with family and friends.

In her final pregnancy update Friday, Kardashian West tweeted, simply, “Ready whenever you are.”
