With December quickly approaching, so is the due date for Kim Kardashian's second child with husband Kanye West.
And on Tuesday the 35-year-old took to her personal website to discuss her concerns regarding the birth, since her baby is in the breech position, meaning his head is up when it is supposed to be down.
Normally the mom-to-be would need to get a cesarean section in this instance, but the reality star noted she has been seeing a doctor who has recommended alternatives which might allow her to still give birth naturally.
'I have been doing everything I can to try to turn the baby,' she gushed on her site, before listing a myriad of interesting methods.
Nerves: Kim Kardashian shared on her website that she is worried about her upcoming birth because her baby is currently in the breech position, meaning his head is up when it is supposed to be down
Kim explained that her baby boy was supposed to have turned by 32 weeks, but never did, which made her worry that she would have to get a c-section.
However, that wasn't necessarily the case, which the reality star explained she realized after doing her research.
'As I lay awake late at night, researching, I've learned that you actually can deliver a breech baby and I feel fortunate that my doctor Paul Crane is one of the few doctors that still does this. They just don't even teach it anymore,' she wrote.

Not giving up: However, Kim hasn't given up hope on a natural birth, turning to Dr. Paul Crane for possible solutions as well trying chiropractic work with Dr. Elliot Berlin
The soon-to-be mother-of-two noted that at 7 pounds her baby may already 'be too big,' but nonetheless she has started 'intensive chiropractic work with Dr. Elliot Berlin.'
Kim gushed: 'He is "the" pregnancy chiropractor! I've learned so much from my few sessions with him.'
The E! star also listed the many ways she has been trying to get her baby to turn ahead of the delivery.
'I lay practically upside down three times a day for 15 minutes, she said, adding: 'I play music in the right position and ice my belly in certain spots to get him to squirm out of the breech position. I even started accupuncture where I burn moxa (mugwort) on my pinky toe every day! I am even attempting hypnosis!'
Kim admitted it has been hard, since she usually turns to mother Kris Jenner or sister Kourtney for pregnancy and baby advice.
However, despite having nine total pregnancies between them, neither of them have gone through something like that before.
Curious and curiouser: In order to try and get the baby to turn around, Kim said: 'I play music in the right position and ice my belly in certain spots... I even started accupuncture where I burn moxa (mugwort) on my pinky toe every day! I am even attempting hypnosis!'
The star clarified: 'Obviously, if it's an emergency and for the safety of my son, I will get a C-section - but if I don't need one, I'd rather not.'
She concluded by revealing that the 'whole delivery gives me anxiety' before adding: 'I hope the baby turns and all goes well but I'm prepared for anything!'
Two years ago, the star had to give birth to daughter North five weeks early after her blood pressure spiked.
It was reported by Us Weekly last week that Kim may have to give birth early this time around again as her doctors 'want to get the baby out early because of her medical history.'
Playing it safe: It was also recently reported that the star - who had a difficult childbirth for daughter North - may have to give birth weeks early because of her medical history
Meanwhile, she had first discussed her difficulty with North's birth in 2013, explaining the ordeal in graphic detail.
'My doctor had to stick his entire arm in me and detach the placenta with his hand, scraping it away from my uterus with his fingernails.'
'Right after delivery, the placenta usually then comes out. Mine did not. My placenta stayed attached inside my uterus, which is a condition called placenta accreta. This is a high-risk condition that happens when the placenta grows too deeply into the uterine wall,' Kim explained.

Calling the experience disgusting and painful, the star said that her mother Kris, 60, cried as she watched.
'She had never seen anything like this before. My delivery was fairly easy, but then going through that - it was the most painful experience of my life!'
'I'm so thankful that my doctor was able to catch this and address the issue immediately,' Kim gushed.
