When Kardashian asks her mother what went through her mind at that time, Jenner admits that she did not know what to think.

“I got pregnant right away and then had a miscarriage. But I also had a miscarriage just before Robert was born, so, a couple of months. Right before I got pregnant with Rob, I had a miscarriage,” she explains.

“And then I had a miscarriage just before Kendall. So when I got pregnant with Kendall we really tried because I thought,” This doesn’t take me down! I will show my body! “It’s almost like a challenge to get pregnant,” Jenner adds.

She continues and says that at that time she would do what it takes to get pregnant.

“I was laser focused. And if I read something that said, “drink iced tea”, or “take pepto bismol”, or “have three coffee”, or what someone’s recommendation was, I would do what it takes to try to get pregnant, “admits Jenner.” Like all these little old wives and everything. ”
