Jason Aldean’s wife, Brittany, opened up about infertility and revealed that she and Jason almost considered a surrogate. That is, of course, until their son, Memphis, was born Dec. 2.
Brittany said on the Babes and Babies podcast:
“We tried for a year and a half. No one really knows this, but we had to do in vitro, so it was the longest process. It was such a roller coaster, and I ended up, through it all, having endometriosis.
“After a year and a half of trying, they’re finally like, ‘We think you might have endometriosis.’ I’m like, ‘After all that, are you kidding me?’ And so then I had to go and have a procedure done called a laparascopy, which is basically where they go in and they check for endometriosis, or any cysts or anything. And, I had Stage 2 out of Stage 4. So they got rid of that, and then I ended up getting pregnant.”
She continued to say that the in-vitro fertizilation was the hardest part:
“We would do a transfer, which is basically where they would implant an embryo, and then it wouldn’t take. So for a ten-day period, you would think, ‘Oh, I think I might be pregnant.’
“They give you a blood test at the end of the ten-day period and you’re not. So in your mind, it’s almost like you’ve had a little bit of a miscarriage, because you expect to be pregnant and you’re not. That happened to us multiple times. So when we finally ended up getting pregnant, it was the most exciting thing ever, because we had tried for so long.”
Brittany and Jason also considered surrogacy, reports Pop Sugar:
“Memphis was actually our last one, so it was like, ‘If this doesn’t work …’ I was considering a surrogate. We were thinking about all the options, which is sad, because you want to be able to carry your own child. But you’re thinking, ‘What’s wrong with me? Why can’t I?'”
Despite all the hardships, the two are thinking of having another baby:
“We do want, probably just one more, because he has two children already, and then we had him, so I feel like four is a lot. But I want to try again, just so Memphis has someone to play with.
“I feel like the sooner the better. You’re already doing the diaper thing, you’re already doing everything. Why don’t we just knock it out? Instead of getting out of that time frame, and then having to start all over.”
