Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker suffered miscarriage before welcoming son Rocky

Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker suffered a miscarriage before welcoming son Rocky in 2023.

The 47-year-old Kardashians star and the 50-year-old Blink 182 drummer revealed in Travis’ new documentary, Travis Barker: Love Is Louder Than Fear, that Kourtney got pregnant in 2021, six months after they started dating.

The baby was a girl – who they planned to call Tulip – but they discovered at a doctor’s appointment three months into the pregnancy that their baby no longer had a heartbeat.

Speaking in the documentary, Kourtney said: “When we lost the baby, we were devastated. We cried for days.”

The couple tried to get pregnant again, with five attempts at IVF in eight months but finally conceived Rocky after taking a break from treatment.

Speaking about the treatment during a 2023 episode of The Kardashians, Kourtney said: “I would love a baby more than anything, but I just really believe in what God has in store for us. If that’s a baby, then I believe that it will happen.

“The freezing of the eggs isn’t guaranteed. I think that that’s a misunderstanding. People do it thinking it’s a safety net and then it’s not. Most of them didn’t survive the thaw and then none of them made it to an embryo.

“My health is still impacted because it’s hormones. And also mentally, it definitely took a toll. So I think just being happy is most important and being a good parent to my kids. We are just embracing that whatever’s meant to be will be.”
