Heart sumailalim sa IVF: 'I have a baby boy and a baby girl waiting for me'

Ibinahagi ng aktres na si Heart Evangelista ang mga pagsubok na naranasan niya sa ilalim ng in-vitro fertilization (IVF).

Sa kaniyang feature story sa September issue ng L’Officiel Philippines na iniulat ng PEP, sinabi ni Heart na “one of the toughest, challenging times” ang naging karanasan niya sa pagsasailalim sa IVF.

“With IVF, they inject you with fertility hormones. It was very difficult and painful. I had three injections a day over a two-week process,” saad ng 37-anyos.

Hindi sinabi kung kailan sinimulan ni Heart ang proseso, “after the harvesting and the processes that came after, they were able to gather the perfect boy and the perfect girl,” aniya pa.

Matatandaang  noong 2018 ay nakunan ang aktres, kaya bumalik ang nararamdamang pressure sa sarili ni Heart na magkaroon ng anak at pag-aalala kung handa na ba siya rito.

“I actually have a baby boy and a baby girl waiting for me, but I’m really at this stage in my life where, ‘Do I want a child because I want a child?’ or ‘Do I want a child because the environment or culture dictates that I should have a child?'” sabi pa niya.

Gayunpaman, hinihikayat ng aktres na beauty at fashion influencer ang ibang kababaihan na sumailalim sa IVF dahil ito ay “buys time.”

“Any time they decide on having a child, the embryo is there. Whether you decide immediately or five years from now, there is no deadline. Also, the process is available in the Philippines and not just abroad.”

Sa pagtatapos ng panayam para sa cover story ay nagpasalamat si Heart sa kanyang asawang si Senator Francis “Chiz” Escudero sa pagsuporta sa kanya.

“Chiz is a really good guy though we’re very different because he’s very conservative and I’m also a little bit more modern. Perhaps it’s because of our age gap. But what I like about him is he tries. He tries to be as supportive as he can be.”

Bago ang paglabas ng magazine, nagsimulang kumalat ang breakup rumors patungkol sa mag-asawa kamakailan.
