Bunnie Xo describes IVF journey as 'hellacious'

Bunnie Xo is rethinking IVF after a punishing second round attempt.

When up-and-coming cartoonist Keef Knight has a traumatic run-in with the police, he begins to see the world in an entirely new way.

The wife of country music star Jelly Roll has revealed that her latest round of in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments has brought some of the most debilitating side effects yet, and says she's thought about reconsidering this path to parenthood.

"Maybe having a baby isn't in our cards. I don't know," she shared.

In a new instalment of her Dumb Blonde podcast, she described this go-around as more painful than ever.

"I'm in medical menopause and it's f**king hellacious," she says in one clip from the podcast. "It has been the worst thing I've ever been through in my life."

She describes symptoms like nausea, cold sweats, blood sugar crashes and pain, explaining that her estrogen levels have plummeted due to a new protocol for this round of IVF.

This treatment plan includes taking Lupron, a drug that Bunnie encountered when her father Bill was battling cancer.

"I saw how my dad felt on Lupron, and now that I have actually gone through it, I feel so bad that I was not more understanding with my dad," she admits. "I have almost gone to the hospital probably 10 times in the past 48 hours."

Jelly Roll and Bunnie have been open about their hopes to have a baby together.

Bunnie has spoken out about their journey as a way to bring awareness to those struggling with infertility.
