A squeamish Kanye West will reportedly not be by his girlfriend Kim Kardashian’s side when she gives birth this July.

The “Golddigger” rapper is “embarrassed,” according to a report, that he won’t be able to watch his first child come into the world but he “has always fainted at the sight of blood” and doesn’t think he will be able to handle watching a live birth.

A source told Showbizspy“Emotionally, Kanye wants to be there for Kim throughout the labor, but he’s just not sure he’s up to it.”

The insider added, “The truth is, Kanye is scared he’ll just add to Kim’s anxiety during labor. He suggested he could stick to pacing outside the delivery room – but Kim has jokingly branded him a ‘wimp’.”

Starpulse reports that although the Kourtney and Kim Take Miami star is still legally married to Kris Humphries, she and West want to have a “commitment ceremony” before the baby arrives.

“It's kind of a miracle that I even got pregnant," she recently said on the Today show about her fertility issues, just like younger sister Khloe Kardashian.
