""It didn't work," Andrews said on her podcast 'Calm Down with Erin and Charissa.' The veteran sportscaster acknowledged the odds are steep. Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show that by the late 40s, the chance of a live birth using one's own eggs is about 1 percent per IVF cycle."
""Here's my whole thing," she told her co-host Charissa Thompson. "I am crazy, and I am with a doctor that said, 'Listen, we'll call it when it's time.' But I, I am psychotic right now. I just feel like I believe my body can do it.""
""You will not stop until someone makes you stop or says, like, here's the concrete evidence that's not going to work,'" Thompson said. "But until somebody tells you it's not going to work, you are going to exhaust every option.""
""I've told you before, you've already won," Thompson said. "You have a beautiful baby boy and he's about to be 3 years old and he's incredible. I love your commitment to your family, because most people would have given up a long time ago and that baby boy wouldn't have even been here.""
At 47, Erin Andrews is undergoing IVF again after having her first child via surrogacy. She acknowledges the low success rates for women in their late 40s but remains determined. Andrews describes her persistence as a 'weird addiction' and believes in her body's ability to conceive. Her co-host, Charissa Thompson, recognizes this tenacity as both a strength and a burden. Andrews and her husband, Jarret Stoll, are already parents to a son born in 2023 through surrogacy after facing multiple IVF challenges.
