Khloe Kardashian opened up about not being able to connect with her newborn son Tatum three months after he was born by a surrogate on the Hulu series The Kardashians.

Her mother, Kris Jenner, visits her at the beginning of the third episode of The Kardashians season 3 – entitled “It’s All My Fault!”
Khloe, who was awkwardly asked out by Scott Disick on last week’s episode, admitted to Kris, “I feel guilty” about not having been in touch with her son three months after his birth.
Khloe also revealed to Kris that she has set new boundaries with her ex/baby’s father, Tristan Thompson, and insists she will not get back together with him.

Kris asks what Khloe thinks about the whole surrogacy process three months later, and Khloe replies, “Comparing True and him, it’s a very different experience, the connection.”
“With True, it took me a few days to be like, ‘Okay, this is my daughter and I was absolutely blown away by it,’ but only days. It takes him months. “I love him and I love kids but I definitely still don’t have that perfect bond but so many people say it takes time,” says Khloe.
Kris adds, “I think you’ve been through a lot.” Your emotions are being expended trying to deal with the trauma and all the things you’ve been through, and I think you need to remember that. I mean, you have to give yourself a little credit.
Khloe agrees, but says she feels “guilty” because it’s not the same, adding that she doesn’t treat him any differently, just questions herself sometimes.
Kris adds that she should give herself a break because every time she comes around, Khloe is “the mom of the year who’s always feeding someone or entertaining someone or in love with her kids.” most attentive person.”
Khloe admits that she wishes she wasn’t so critical of myself because I’m very nice to everyone else, I’m just not nice to myself.
“Being a mom really is one of the most magical experiences ever,” Khloe confesses when Kris asks to hold the baby, but Khloe warns he could throw up.
Kris holds the child and starts crying as Kris adds, “See your mom jump up.” Who’s connected? Who is connected?’
At the beginning of the episode, Kris asked how things were going with Tristan Thompson, while Khloe took a breath and then added, “We always get along well.” He and I have a great friendship, we get along well and I would put everything on hold for my kids . What’s done is done, so what’s the point of holding on? I don’t have to ‘punish’ him because I’m not getting back together with him.”
Kris adds that she stopped by the other day and Tristan was there feeding their five-year-old daughter True and it was “really cute”.
“And when I’m not here and not around, he’s here and I’d rather have him be here than a nanny.” I mean, there are still boundaries. I definitely went full throttle on a lot of things. “Nobody’s around here chilling when there aren’t kids around,” Khloe tells Kris.

Khloe admits that boundaries are important because “we’ve done this song and dance a few times.”
“I got back together with him after a cheating scandal, so I don’t know if Tristan is like, ‘Oh wow, let’s just get through this and eventually she’ll get back with me.’ I understand why he would think that. That’s why it’s my job to set limits that my actions otherwise show,” she says.
Khloe tells Kris they’re not just there to hang out alone or watch TV together, adding in admission that she makes sure he knows, “It’s all about the kids.”
“I can’t let these old habits just creep into my life.” “It’s just not what I want,” she admits, while Kris says it makes her happy.
