Speaking on The Today Show, she said: "They say if you've been trying [to have a baby] for a year, then you usually need a little bit of help.
"I had a tough delivery, so I understand what my challenges are. I mean, I'm seeing the best doctors and I'm trying to do everything that I can to make that happen."
Meanwhile, earlier this month, viewers of the family's E! show watched on as Kim was told she may only be able to have a baby via a surrogate.

Reacting to the bombshell, she said through tears: "There is nothing more on this earth that I want more than to be pregnant again and to go through that experience, I would pay any amount of money to have that.
"Surrogacy is really scary for me, I don't want one, I don't want that to be my reality. It's my last resort, surrogacy. As much as I hated being pregnant, and I complained every step of the way and joked that I didn't want one, I really don't want a surrogate.
"I wouldn't dare ask anyone to do this for me. It freaks me out, what if they're a lunatic, what if they run off with my baby? I can't do it, I just can't."
How North caught Kim's selfie habit
Kim Kardashian West - who is infamously known as the queen of the selfie - has revealed her 22-month-daughter North loves to take self-portraits too.

The 34-year-old television personality has revealed that North, despite only being 22-months-old, has already inherited her mother's love of taking self-portrait pictures.
She said: "She has a computer of mine with all of these movies and music on it, and I was just using it, and I noticed the Photo Booth, there were all these selfies of her, that she doesn't realize she's taking, but she presses it, and it's so funny. So we do take lots of pictures together."

The 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' star is hoping North - who she has with rapper Kanye West, 37 - will have the same close connection to her as she has with her mother Kris Jenner.

She added: "I hope that I have the same relationship with her that I do with my mom and that she is my best friend and that she is just a strong, powerful woman and is very confident.

"My grandmothers and my mom all ... just displayed a really strong work ethic, a strong family sense, and really instilled that within me and my sisters at a young age."

And when's she not posing for selfies, North enjoys dancing and taking piano lessons.

Kim told PEOPLE magazine: "She's getting so big. She says everything. She loves ballet, tap, she takes piano lessons.
"She's very, very active, and she's growing so big and so fast."

Kim and Kanye can sue over proposal leak
Kim Kardashian West and Kanye West's lawsuit against YouTube's co-founder, who allegedly leaked footage of their engagement, is allowed to proceed. a court has ruled.
(Bang)
Kim Kardashian West and Kanye West's lawsuit against YouTube's co-founder is allowed to proceed.
The couple sued executive Chad Hurley after he defied a confidentiality agreement and leaked footage of the rapper's lavish 2013 marriage proposal to the 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star onto MixBit and the 2nd District Court of Appeal ruled on Wednesday they can go ahead with the legal action.
(Bang)
Hurley's legal team had previously argued that a loophole meant posting the video on MixBit didn't violate the confidentiality agreement, but Kim and Kanye insisted he had snuck into AT&T Park - the site of the proposal - with the intention to film and they only allowed him to stay on the property after he agreed to sign the non-disclosure document.
The couple - who have 22-month-old daughter North together - went on to state in their suit: "Hurley proceeded to try to turn the event into one starring himself, broadcasting the images he knew were the exclusive property rights of someone else."

The tech executive previously appealed the legitimacy of the lawsuit, but yesterday's hearing upheld the previous ruling, and the showbiz couple can go ahead with their bid to seek unspecified damages.

How dentist trip changed Kanye
'All Day' hitmaker Kanye West has revealed how his outlook on life was transformed by a trip to the dentist.
(Bang)
The 37-year-old rapper - who has 22-month-old daughter North with wife Kim Kardashian West - has revealed how being given nitrous gas during a visit to get treatment on his teeth helped to clarify his perspective on life.
The 'All Day' hitmaker recalled: "One time I was at the dentist's office and I was given nitrous gas and I was vibing out.
"I guess that's my version of [Apple founder] Steve Jobs and his LSD trip - when I had this first thought: What is the meaning of life? And then I thought, to give. What's the key to happiness? Happiness. What do you want in life? When you give someone something, should they give you something in return? No.
(Bang)
"We don't have to expect to be compensated by the person we give to. Just give."
Kanye said the gas led him to understand that being remembered as a public figure "doesn't even matter".
He told Paper magazine: "I'm a Christian so I'll speak in Christian terms: God will give you tenfold.
(Bang)
"Then I said in my mind, 'I'm still under the gas and getting my teeth cleaned' - but I just want to be remembered. And I immediately corrected myself. I said, 'It doesn't even matter if I'm remembered.'"
Kanye admitted his trip to the dentist was a life-changing experience.
He explained: "I came out of the gas and had a completely new attitude on everything."
Kylie breaking Bruce's heart
Kylie Jenner is said to be "breaking [Bruce's] heart" because she is reportedly avoiding meeting up with him following news of his rumoured gender transition.
(Bang)
The 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' star is said to be avoiding her father at all costs and "shutting him out" over his rumoured gender transition.
A source said: "[She] keeps promising to visit Bruce at his Malibu mansion, but she never shows. And most of the time, Kylie doesn't even have the courtesy to call Bruce to say she isn't coming!
(Bang)
"Obviously it has to be very hard for a teenager to have a father go through a sex change, and it seems she is embarrassed.
"But Kylie is just shutting Bruce out and it's breaking his heart. Offering to go to counselling with Kylie hasn't helped. He has no other choice but to let Kylie do her own thing, and hope she will eventually come around."
(Getty Images)
Bruce's ex-wife Kris was previously seen visiting the 65-year-old Olympian's home but an insider has claimed it was just a "public relations stunt".
They added: "It was all a public relations stunt. Kris wanted to be photographed arriving at the house. Feeling backlash from the public, Kris felt it was important to at least make it look as if she was being supportive."
(Instagram)
And Bruce's older daughter Kendall has been showing her support to her father despite being busy travelling.
The source told RadarOnline.com: "She has been video chatting with Bruce ... She knows it's important for Bruce.
"Kendall is extremely empathetic and has a very, very kind heart."

She said: "Kanye's show was cool and a great experience, but I wouldn't want to be a model - that's Kendall's thing.
"I love designing. I want to try everything this year."

Kylie has seen her appearance come under much scrutiny because of her seemingly-fuller lips but the teenager can't understand why people would think she has had cosmetic surgery.
She told Britain's Grazia magazine: "I'm like, 'Stop talking about my lips.' I haven't had plastic surgery. I've never been under the knife.
Bang
"People flashback to pictures of me when I was 12 and say, 'Kylie's so different' but how can I look the same from 12 to 18?"
Because she has spent so many years on TV, Kylie thinks she has grown up "a lot faster" than her peers.
She said: "It's definitely been crazy. I've been through so many situations that people my age don't go through. It's made me grow up a lot faster."

She said: "She really does love it all. She loves makeup. Every night we play, after her bath, in bed, and you know my purse is always kind of by my nightstand, so she always says, 'Purse!' So she grabs my purse, and that means she wants my makeup bag, so I give her my makeup bag and it's empty.
"And if I just turn around for one second, she has my lipstick like all over her face. So I have to give her her own little makeup bag. She's obsessed with makeup and watching me get ready and getting ready herself. She just loves the process, she could not be more ultimately girly-girl."
The 34-year-old television personality also revealed her daughter follows in her mother's footsteps and has taken an interest in fashion.

Kim told ELLE magazine: "She dresses really simple, and she's not really a fussy dresser except for every morning and says 'shoes,' and has to put on a pair of shoes.
"She just discovered backpacks so she love to put them on. She had a big pink poodle [backpack] that her friend sent her, and she loves sandals, so she was wearing these really, like, wild sandals... So I think she does gravitate towards really simple things, but she loves accessories."
