Amanda Seyfried's Eggs Are 'Dying Off,' Says Amanda Seyfried
Latest29-year-old Amanda Seyfried’s biological clock is tickin’ like this, and she wants a child “badly.” In an interview with Marie Claire UK, she discussed her desire to be a mother, but referenced some questionable studies about pregnancy in the process.
“I keep feeling like my eggs are dying off…Once you’ve turned 30, you might only have a 20 percent [chance] of getting pregnant [each cycle]. And that’s if everything is working well. Isn’t that crazy?”
OK, Amanda. You want to have a baby but you’re worried it’s getting too late. I get it. Actually, I’m a man who will never possibly understand what it means to have eggs and want to get pregnant, so maybe I don’t get it at all, but I think you should stop worrying so much! Again, who the hell am I – but, anxious person to anxious person, I think you should read something!
