Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt used IVF to conceive twins?
Filed under: Celeb Parents, Rumors
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have never made it a secret that they want to have a large family. But what may come as a surprise is their lack of patience in creating that family. US magazine is reporting that Angie and Brad used IVF to conceive their twins, not because of fertility issues, because they were impatient with waiting for it to happen naturally.
An "unnamed source" tells US that Angelina chose IVF so "she wouldn't have to deal with the stress of becoming pregnant." She may have more than a little trouble finding women to sympathize with the stress of "trying to get pregnant" with Mr. Pitt. In fact, she might find a volunteer or two to pinch hit for her!
All kidding aside, trying to conceive can be stressful, but IVF is definitely no walk in the park. Not only are there risks associated with the procedure, there is no guarantee of success. If this rumor is true, either the Jolie-Pitts like things to happen on a time frame that they control, or they were just very, very anxious to become parents again. Angelina told Elle U.K. last year that they wanted to raise their children while they're still young. Though Angelina is only 33, Brad will turn 45 next year.

ninainindia said...This seems like one of those stories completely made up by the tabloids, the same goes for the story about Jennifer Lopez only letting her children wear clothes once.

Heidi said...I agree with ninainindia; this does sound fabricated. Impatient or not, IVF is typically one of the last resorts, it's no simple "quick fix".

Amy said...Didn't the truthsayer, the National Enquirer, write up this same story last year when it was being buzzed about that she was pregnant before she showed up at the SAGs with her baby belly?

sandy said...Yeah, I know - sometimes I crave the more farce-type stuff on celebrities, just so I can laugh and KNOW it's fake. the tabloid-esq stuff just depresses me. I read a couple of recent posts on this site that were truly funny, very tongue-in-cheek.

I mean there are people out there suing doctors for giving them too many babies via IVF. It's ludacris. I honestly believe however they were on a better track just adopting children. I wish I could adopt. I am hoping one day to have one more baby of my own, hopefully a girl but I am grateful for whichever then I would like to adopt another boy and girl probably from Korea or China I haven't decided the details. I've got a ways to go, lol. *sigh*
It's their life is all I can say.

ebmo said...Even IVF does not guarantee twinning with different sex children.
Also for the millions of women who have irregular cycles who want to have a child, medication is often prescribed which increases the likelyhood of multiple eggs being released at ovulation.
The bottom line is the babies are wanted and loved and they have more than enough means to care for them.
