    Kourtney Kardashian’s son Rocky’s emergency fetal surgery took place because of fluid in his lungs.

    The reality star made the reveal on Thursday’s episode of “The Kardashians” after remaining vague about the procedure for months.

    “It is super rare — the condition that he had — but it is also super rare and lucky that we caught it,” the Poosh creator, 45, gushed in a confessional.

    Kardashian told viewers that “the fluid in his lungs actually did start coming back” after she went under the knife in September 2023.

    “I watched this documentary called ‘Heal’ that was all about the power of positive thinking and how our thinking can really affect our health,” she recalled. “I started talking to the baby every day, saying my prayers.

    “After I had that mindset shift, the fluid was completely gone and we had not one single problem after,” she continued.

    ‘Disrespectful’ Kourtney Kardashian blasted for snubbing ex Scott Disick in Father’s Day post to Travis Barker

    As Kardashian’s labor was documented on the Hulu show, Travis Barker shared his worries about their baby boy’s arrival.

    “I don’t want him to come out early,” the Blink-182 member, 48, said. “I want to make sure his lungs are perfect — everything’s perfect.”

    The couple welcomed their little one on Nov. 1, missing a Halloween birthday by one minute.

    “There’s a hole in the amniotic sac from where they had to go in,” she explained last month. “I’m not allowed to drive. I’m not allowed to stand for more than 20 minutes. I’m really not leaving the house.”

    Kardashian is also the mother of son Mason, 14, daughter Penelope, 11, and son Reign, 9.
