Lolo Jones, 39, tearfully shares why she's decided to start the IVF process: 'I'm running out of time to start a family'
The Olympian said she's tired of "waiting" for a husband in order to have a baby — so she's taking it into her own hands.
In a video she posted of the process, she tearfully explained how she wants "a family," but has spent years waiting for a husband to begin that journey. Now that she's turning 40 on August 5, Jones said she's taking the process into her own hands and beginning the first steps of the in vitro fertilization process, which includes freezing her eggs. That includes giving herself routine hormone injections and going to doctor's appointments to make sure she can proceed
my opinion:"Terrified. 15 days before I turned 40," she wrote in her Instagram caption. "Nothing has scared me more than feeling like I'm running out of time to have a family. I originally wanted to freeze my eggs when I was in my early 30's. I just kept thinking I will meet my husband and things will all work out. Well here I am almost 10 years later and it hasn't."
