Report: Kim Kardashian expecting baby No. 3 via surrogate

Kim Kardashian is reportedly expecting baby No. 3 via surrogate.

People reported Wednesday that the woman Kardashian and husband Kanye West hired to carry their third child is pregnant.

"The entire family is over the moon. Kim had been looking for a surrogate for months until recently when she found the perfect candidate," a source told the magazine.

"Given her health scares in the past, Kim felt the need to hire a surrogacy agency that helped serve as the liaison in finding a healthy woman who would be a great surrogate option for her and Kanye. Both of them have been super involved in the process."

"They want everything to be perfect and for the baby to be healthy," the insider added. "They don't want any complications and Kim is providing an ideal eating regimen and diet so everyone knows what the bay is consuming before it's born."

Kardashian and West's child is due in January, according to TMZ. The couple already share 4-year-old daughter North West and 21-month-old son Saint West, but were warned another pregnancy for Kardashian would be high-risk.

E! News reported in June that Kardashian and West had hired a surrogate to carry their third child. Sources told TMZ at the time the couple will pay the woman $45,000, and have outlined a set of rules for the duration of her pregnancy.
