According to the reality star, she was "talked into" freezing her eggs. Kardashian explained,"I froze mine and hopefully they’re sitting there OK just for — you never know."
"I really got talked into it. I was like, 'OK, whatever, I’ll do it one time since everyone else is doing it. I might as well,'" she added.
Kardashian explained her initial hesitation, "I’m someone who’s like, ‘What’s God’s plan? Am I supposed to get pregnant on my own at 41?'"
"Maybe that’s God’s plan. I’m more like that. That’s I think why I never did the planning. I live in a Disney world," she continued.
"After I did it, the doctor was like, 'I would love you to do one more round just to have good healthy batch, a good amount,' and I was like, 'You guys had me one time, that’s it. That’s more than I was gonna do.'"
Even now, Kourtney isn't exactly sure if she wants to use them, but the decision still gave her some reassurance.
She explained, "I was 39 and was about to turn 40 and just felt like people were saying, 'If you’re gonna do it, you’ve gotta do it now.' [I was like], 'OK, everyone stop rushing me. I don’t know if I even want to have another kid or if that’s, like, in the future or whatever.' I think doing that … and having the control of my body just gave me a peace of mind."
