“This could be appendicitis, but we really don’t want to operate on a pregnant woman because it has potential complications for the pregnancy,” the doctor tells Kardashian, 32. “If we really feel strongly that this could be appendicitis, then sometimes we have to operate.”

The doctor then instructs a five-months-pregnant Kardashian to lie on her back so he can assess the situation. “Show me where you think the pain is the worst,” he says while feeling her stomach. Kardashian winces when he presses too hard. “That hurts so much!” she tells him.
