Kylie Jenner getting knocked up was the headline heard round the world. The Internet was going absolutely crazy when TMZ announced Kylie Jenner's speculated pregnancy. Though it still has not been confirmed, it could not be more obvious. At around the same time, Khloe Kardashian confirmed that she was indeed pregnant and boyfriend Tristan Thompson was the baby daddy. Out of love for her sister and trying to protect her from the prying eyes of the public, Khloe probably did this to A) get attention and B) take some shade off of Kylie out of sense of protection. Perhaps it wasn't so shocking that Khloe got pregnant, but people were flabbergasted when they found out that the youngest of the Kardashian clan was expecting.
Khloe and Kylie will forever share a special bond, since they are both pregnant at the same time and, of course, their children will be besties forever. It looks like this long-running atrocity of a reality show will never end since the heirs keep coming into fruition. Embracing true family values, this family uses their reproductive systems as pure marketing gold. The Kardashians are spreading their seed and producing spawn left and right. After all, someone has to keep up the legacy of being famous for absolutely no reason, right?
16 Khloe: Because Her Zodiac Sign Is Cancer
According to astrology, the Cancer women (anyone born between June 20th-July 22nd) make for the best mothers. They are protective, nurturing, and receptive to the emotions of those around them. Children of Cancer moms know better than an other kid that they are truly loved and cared for and never doubt it for a split second. Cancers are listeners and always want to know what is bothering their kids even if its to the point of being smothering. A Cancer mom is focused on the home and domestic life so she wants to create an environment of love and comfort so that her kids feel safe to share anything with her. Khloe Kardashian has personified these traits with her Kardashian clan and will continue to do so with her new baby. Her birthday is June 27th.
15 Kylie: Because Her Body Is In It's Prime For Child-Bearing
This is going to sound old-fashioned, but you simply can't argue with biology. Kylie Jenner is at the age where she is reaching the best age for child-bearing. For most women, the highest peak fertility rate occurs in the early to mid '20s and starts to slow down once they hit the age of 30. Any pregnancy that is over the age of 35 is considered a high risk pregnancy and needs to be monitored more closely by doctors. Though she might not be as mentally prepared as her older sister, Kylie's younger body is more equipped to handle pregnancy with less chances of complications. Khloe isn't exactly too old for child-bearing, but she is pushing the limit if she were to wait another few years.
14 Khloe: Because She Is Older (And Thus, Wiser)
Khloe Kardashian is a whopping 13 years older than her half sister, Kylie Jenner. At 33 years old, she is more mentally prepared for motherhood than her 20-year-old sister. For our grandparents generation, having a baby at 20 was the norm but not for us millennials. People are getting married and starting families later in life now and that is becoming the norm. Khloe has already been previously married to Lamar Odom so she has had some practice for parenting through her former step-daughters that she inherited from him. Khloe Kardashian has always been a gentle soul and her life experience will have her better prepared to welcome a new baby into the world. When she found out she was pregnant, she was probably over the moon with joy to finally have what she has been waiting for.
13 Kylie: Because She Inherited Experience From Her Older Sisters
One of the biggest benefits of having your birth order as the youngest is that you get to observe and learn from the experiences of your older siblings both good and bad. Kylie Jenner is the youngest of a huge Kardashian brood and she has seen Kourtney, Kim and Rob go through all the trials and tribulations of being a parent. Not only that, but she has the benefit of taking advice from them and they will always be there for her if she is having trouble raising her unborn baby. Kylie has the benefit of not repeating the same mistakes that her sisters and brother may have made while they were parents for the first time. Unlike most pregnant 20 year olds, Kylie Jenner has the benefit of coming from wealth and has a safety net of endless love and support.
12 Khloe: Because Motherhood Is Something She Has Wanted For A Long Time
One of the biggest reasons Khloe Kardashian suffered of a broken heart when she and Lamar Odom got divorced was because she wanted a family with him. Though she was happy for Kourtney, Kim and Rob who started families before she did, she couldn't help but feel that there was something missing in her life. If is safe to assume that she was even more overjoyed than most expectant moms when she found out that she was pregnant. Her NBA player boyfriend Tristan Thompson was captured on Instagram embracing her pregnant belly on December 20th, 2017. The caption read (in a shortened version): "My greatest dream realized! We are having a baby! I had been waiting and wondering but God had a plan all along. He knew what He was doing. I simply had to trust in Him and be patient."
11 Kylie: She Will Let Grandma Kris Take More Control
Having a baby at 20 years old is a lot of pressure for someone as young and Kylie Jenner. Kris Jenner has proved herself to be a hands-on type of parent and she has extended that to being a hands-on type of grandparent. In other cultures around the world, children are sent to live with their grandparents in the first few years of their life because they are wiser than their parents. In a super family-oriented tribe like the Kardashians, Kylie is more likely to let the matriarch perform the responsibilities of raising her unborn baby. Kylie is after all the baby of the family herself so that will make her relate more to her child as a baby. The youngest children tend to be the most passive so Kris will take the reigns of that grandchild.
10 Khloe: She Is In A More Stable Relationship
Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson are head over heels in love with one another and he is excited to be a father. Kylie and her baby daddy haven't been together for that long. In fact, she got pregnant after only two months of dating him. That doesn't sound like a stable foundation to where two people are going to co-parent together for the rest of their lives. However, Khloe is 7 years older than her baby daddy and he is already the father of a son from another woman. That hasn't stopped Khloe from pursuing a relationship with men before. She has no problem welcoming step-children into her life. The Kardashians have a long string of professional athlete boyfriends so perhaps it is their goal to raise professional athlete children.
Unfortunately for Kylie, she and her baby daddy Travis Scott have ended their relationship. It looks like she is in for single motherhood.
9 Kylie: She Grew Up The Ugly Duckling
Kylie has lived in the shadows of her older sisters her entire life. She was put into the spotlight without any of it being her decision ever since she was a little kid. After Kim shot to stardom after the first KUWTK premiered in 2007, she has just been along for the ride. After Kim had to pass the torch to Kendall as the "hot sister", she had to deal with having a supermodel as a sister. Kylie Jenner probably isn't a stranger to being compared with overachiever siblings. In fact, a lot of kids could relate to this. This would explain her decision to alter her facial features dramatically. When her child goes through those insecure teenage years, she will have empathy for them and will be a better mother for it.
8 Khloe: She Grew Up The Chubby One
If Khloe has a girl, she will be sensitive to what she says to her daughter about her appearance. Though Khloe Kardashian has lost a lot of weight since she first became famous, being pregnant will probably take her back to where she was before. For awhile, she was known as the "fat Kardashian sister" and wasn't seen as attractive when she stood next to Kim. She looked huge standing next to Kourtney for how tiny she was. If her unborn (maybe) daughter inherits her bigger bones, she will be able to relate to her on a personal level when it comes to body image and self-esteem. She will give her some insightful advice because she has been put in the limelight with her weight fluctuations for the past 11 years.
7 Kylie: She Switched To An All-Vegan Diet
Under the advice from big sister Kourtney, Kylie Jenner has opted for a vegan diet and becoming an organic mom (to be). She has sent several snapchats about her everyday food preparations while these pregnancy rumors have been swirling around in the media. Once the baby is born, there is a very good chance that she might encourage her child to live a healthy vegan lifestyle too. Though Khloe does make sure that her diet and fitness stays in check, she is not concerned about diets in the same way that Kourtney is with her kids. Kylie has been dropping some cheeky hints that she is pregnant, but her all of the sudden switch to a vegan diet would indicate that she is trying to nurture the life inside of her.
6 Khloe: She Has Already Proved Herself As The "Cool Aunt"
Even though Khloe is the one Kardashian who hasn't had a kid yet, that doesn't mean that she has a vast amount of experience with her nieces and nephews. In many episodes of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, there is an endless amount of footage of her babysitting her sister's kids and enjoying every single second with them. It is obvious from watching her with family that she is great with children and babies even gravitate towards her. Then again, this comes with the territory of being the cool aunt. Sure, you get to embrace your nieces and nephews, but you never have to be the disciplinarian. It will be a much different dynamic once she becomes a mother, but she has still had plenty of practice.
5 Kylie: She Doesn't Want To Be Famous
Kylie has already said herself that by the time she reaches 30, she no longer wants to be a celebrity. In other words, she wants her fame to fade and her transition out of the spotlight to be complete by then. She never asked to be a public figure in the first place. In fact, she was forced into it. Even if she didn't want to share the details of her intimate life, she just didn't really have a choice in the first place. She even alluded to the hope of fading away into celebrity obscurity. Unlike her older sisters, she doesn't feel the pressure to put her kids in the limelight and doesn't intend to. Plus, she never has been an attention whore. That's just not her style.
4 Khloe: She Is Practically A Mother Already
Khloe has been a hands-on aunt since the very beginning. Ever since the first Kardashian spawn, Mason Disick was born, her priority has always been a "family first" mentality. She has helped raise Kourtney and Kim's kids as if they were her own and has loved every minute of it. She has been the go-to person for whenever they need a babysitter and the children gravitate towards her loving energy. It is with beyond a shadow of a doubt that Khloe is just one of those people who is like a kid whisperer. She has been yearning to be a mother for a long time and has had the most practice. If any Kardashian has become a mother with the maximum amount of preparation, it is Khloe.
3 Kylie: She Is A Young Mogul In Her Own Right
Kylie Jenner has proven herself to be an entrepreneur following in the footsteps of her older sister, Kim Kardashian. She has taken some sound advice and built her own empire. She has made millions off of her hair extension and lipstick line. Not to mention that she has played the real estate game by flipping expensive houses in Malibu. Sure, she has gotten some help from the Kardashian empire, but she has made profit in her own right. As dysfunctional and fabulous as this family is all at the same time, you have to hand it to her for making that dough. Once she has her child, they will definitely learn a lesson or two from their young mogul mom. She will make it rain and then some.
2 Khloe: She Is More Relatable
When Khloe Kardashian has ever given her point of view on camera, she has a way of connecting with the audience. She seems more relatable than the other sisters. Kim, on the other hand just seems too perfect riding on her high horse and having the rest of us feel like she is simply better than we are. If we were to run into any of the Kardashian or Jenner girls at a party, Khloe would be the easiest to approach. This is probably why she is so popular with her nieces and nephews. She has a warm and inviting personality that just makes you wish that she was your best friend. When she spends quality time with her little one, they will feel the kind spirit radiating from her aura.
1 Kylie: She Has Better Genes
Plastic surgery or not, Kylie Jenner is arguably one of the prettiest Kardashian girls now that she is a grown woman. Though we wonder what she would look like had she not had all that work done, that is a mute issue at this point. She is the daughter of an Olympic athlete and that right there gives her a strong gene pool. The entire Kardashian clan is a good looking bunch, but having an athlete for a former-father provides a strong chance that those athletically inclined genes will be spread to her unborn baby. Plus, she has a more slender build than Khloe and will be less likely to have an overweight baby. Khloe has shed a lot of weight but let's be honest. Her metabolism isn't the best out of all the sisters.
