This article contains spoilers from the premiere episode ofThe Kardashianson Hulu.
During Thursday’s episode of the Hulu seriesThe Kardashians, Kourtney, 43, opened up to momKris Jennerabout wanting to have a child with Barker, 46.
However, things were not going as planned for Kourtney, who revealed that she’s currently facing complications in her in vitro fertilization (IVF) journey, and experiencing depression as a result.
During a visit to Kourtney’s home, Kris sat down with her eldest daughter and asked how her doctor’s appointments were going.

Speaking to her mom, Kourtney continued, “Every single person on social media is always like, ‘Kourtney’s pregnant, Kourtney’s pregnant, Kourtney’s gained so much weight.’ I’m like, it’s so rude to comment on people when you have no idea what they’re actually going through.”
“The medication that they’ve been giving me, they put me into menopause,” she added.
“Based off of what? A drug?” Kris asked.
“Yes,” said Kourtney. “The medication basically put me into depression.”
In a confessional, the Poosh founder added: “I think because I’m so clean and careful with what I put into my body, it’s just having the complete opposite reaction and is working as a contraceptive instead of helping us.”
The news came as a shock to Kris, who told her daughter, “I feel like I’ve never seen you happier so the depression thing surprises me.”
“And I have everything in the world to be happy about,” Kourtney responded. “I just feel a little bit off. I’m super moody and hormonal. Like, I’m a lunatic half the time.”

Kris completely understood where Kourtney was coming from and offered up her own experiences from having kids in the mid-1990s.
“I got pregnant in 1994 and had a miscarriage and my body entirely shut down,” she said. “It stopped making anything. I was moody and depressed and bloated, didn’t feel well. Everything you just described, the exact same thing happened.”
Kourtney was in agreement, explaining that the reason she and Barker, 46, “want it so badly” is because “we want to make something together.”
“God willing,” Kourtney said.
