"My latest concern is that my baby is breech, meaning he's in the wrong position for childbirth. His head is still up and it's supposed to be down. He was supposed to turn by 32 weeks. So now, I will have to get a C-section. Or so I thought," she wrote on her blog, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
The 35-year-old has been researching alternative options and is doing "everything she can" to get the baby to turn until her due date.
"Since my baby is pretty big - over seven pounds -- maybe he's just too big at this point but I started intensive chiropractic work with Dr. Elliot Berlin. He is 'the' pregnancy chiropractor! I've learned so much from my few sessions with him.
"I have been doing everything I can to try to turn the baby. I lay practically upside down three times a day for 15 minutes. I play music in the right position and ice my belly in certain spots to get him to squirm out of the breech position. I even started acupuncture where I burn moxa (mugwort) on my pinky toe every day! I am even attempting hypnosis," she said.
Kim also said that she is feeling "anxious" about possibly needing the procedure, but will accept it if it's necessary for her and the baby's health.
"Obviously, if it's an emergency and for the safety of my son, I will get a C-section--but if I don't need one, I'd rather not. Please wish me luck and pray the baby turns! This whole delivery gives me anxiety, not gonna lie. I hope the baby turns and all goes well but I'm prepared for anything," she said.
The "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" star already has a daughter named North West with rapper Kanye West.

Bieber canceled his scheduled appearance on "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" and a performance for the 89th annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.
Gomez has urged Bieber to talk to his mother Pattie Mallette to cope with his problems, reported Hollywood Life.
"Selena is huge on family and thinks Justin could benefit from some much needed, quality time with his mom. He's got so much on his plate right now and Selena knows that Pattie always has a soothing affect on Justin," a source said.
"(Selena) knows he needs a lot of support right now from the people who know him the best and love him the most. People who have his best interests at heart," the source added.
Bieber, 21, previously dished on his relationship with his mother during an interview released earlier this month.
He said that their relationship in the past two years became "pretty non-existing. I was distant because I was ashamed. I never wanted my mom to be disappointed in me and I knew she was."
On the other hand, Pattie looked supportive of him.
After learning that Bieber had the most songs ever on the Billboard Hot 100, Pattie tweeted on Monday, "Good job @justinbieber! You were born for this. You shine so bright.
Thank you for sharing ur gifts! #SoProud love love love xoxo Mama."

Oscar winning composer Mychael Danna creates soundtrack for 'The Good Dinosaur'

Disney-Pixar's 'The Good Dinosaur' features an original score by Oscar-winning composer of 'Life Of Pi', Mychael Danna and Emmy-nominated composer Jeff Danna.

Releasing on 4th December, the film asks the question: What if the asteroid that forever changed life on Earth missed the planet completely and giant dinosaurs never became extinct? The story revolves around an Apatosaurus named Arlo (voice of Raymond Ochoa) who makes an unlikely human friend. While traveling through a harsh and mysterious landscape, Arlo learns the power of confronting his fears and discovers what he is truly capable of.
Mychael Danna is an Academy Award-winning film composer recogniSed for his evocative blending of non-western traditions with orchestral and electronic music. He invited his younger brother Jeff, 50, to join him and Jeff didn’t hesitate.
"When we first met with the (Pixar) team, they said, 'Give us tunes and melodies that get to the heart of the story,'" says Mychael.
"But within that we wanted to make an orchestral score because the vistas are huge in the movie and we wanted the three-dimensional affect of a large orchestra, but with lots of alternate colours." he says.
