Kim Kardashian isn't exactly having an easier second pregnancy.

"I just don't think pregnancy and me really agree with each other," the 35-year-old Keeping Up with the Kardashians star told E! News. "You know, it was really hard for me to get pregnant so I do feel really blessed that I am pregnant and, at the end of the day, it is a million times worth it."
However, Kardashian continued, "I'm really not complaining, I'm just being honest and being honest about [it]. I hate it. You know pregnancy is not for me... You know I've heard stories forever about how amazing pregnancy is from my mom and Kourtney and that's just not the case for me and I'm not going to sit here and lie and act like it's the most blissful experience. It's awful."
Kardashian was all but tortured when it came to her weight gain the first time around with daughter North West. Tabloids even published photos comparing her to a killer whale and critics were pretty brutal about her size.
"It's my reality and I've always been super honest. You know, last time I gained 50 and I delivered around this time, you know, week wise into my pregnancy," Kardashian revealed.

"And so I'm 52 pounds up and I still have, what six weeks to go? So I'm definitely a little nervous, but I'm enjoying it. I've started to eat whatever I want. I know my bounce back game is [strong]. I enjoy the process, the challenge of getting back, so I'm not worried about the afterward."
Kardashian told E! News her baby is "a lot bigger this time." She's expecting a son with husband Kanye West.
"It's a whole different weight shift... Every pregnancy really is different and I carry the weight differently," the reality TV star said. "But no, I'm not like afraid to say what is on my mind or how I'm feeling especially about pregnancy I feel like it's what everyone goes through, so why not share my story and my process?"
Kardashian discovered she was pregnant this past spring and confirmed the sex of her second child in June. North was born on June 15, 2013, about one year before Kardashian and West tied the knot in Florence, Italy.
