Bunnie Xo & Jelly Roll Celebrate “A Huge, Huge Milestone” On IVF Journey: “God Finally Said ‘Here'”

Something to celebrate. Bunnie Xo and Jelly Roll have opened up significantly to fans over the last year about their hopes to have a child. At first, the couple thought about keeping their journey private, but later decided to open up about their IVF journey to the public. After this decision, we got little snippets and updates about Bunnie Xo’s IVF stims, and how badly she and Jelly Roll want to have a child of their own, but recently she’s opened up even more about the trials and tribulations of this process. In March, Bunnie posted a video revealing to fans that they had done an egg retrieval: @xomgitsbunnie #bunniexo ♬ original sound – Bunnie Xo Since that procedure, she’s shared that it was not an easy process for her, which was the opposite of what other women had shared with her. She felt like the stims was easier for her than the retrieval. “I’m a little over two weeks out now, and I’m feeling so much better… Like everybody said like, ‘Oh, the stims is the hardest part,’ and blah, blah, blah, blah. And like the stims for me was so easy. And everybody’s like, ‘Oh, the egg retrieval is a breeze. After two days, you’re gonna be recovered and feeling great.’ No. No, no. No sir. I was not.  Like day 11 I was concerned, I messaged my clinic and was like, ‘Hello, not only have I gained 6 pounds on this sh*t. When does that start coming off? And secondly, why am I in so much pain?’ I took pictures I looked like I was four months pregnant.” Bunnie shared that all the hormones caused her body to be out of whack, and then commended the women who do two IVF cycles back to back, because it is not for the weak. “The women who do this IVF journey are a different breed. It’s crazy, like these women are just straight-up soldiers, man. And I get it, they are on a mission for a goal. But… how bad do I want that goal? You know, like I don’t know if I’m built like them. Maybe that’s why I don’t have kids, because I’m not built like them. I can’t f**king do it, man. But we are back on track.” While Bunnie said she was back on track after recovering from her last egg retrieval, that was short-lived after she had a horrible experience doing another IVF round on a different medication. Bunnie Xo shared that she did another round to do, then another egg retrieval, which increases your chances of viable embryos. But Bunnie shared that after doing a round on this new medication, her body went into medical menopause and had a “hellacious” reaction to it overall. “So I’m doing my second round of IVF. The last cycle, we got eggs, they are frozen, whatever. But I guess to increase your chances of having a baby, you need to have as many eggs as possible, which is why women end up doing 5-10 IVF cycles. Which hats off to you, broads, because there is no way, shape, or form that I could do that.” After that last update, it sounded like Bunnie Xo was considering taking a break from IVF and would just let fate run its course. But in a recent post, Bunnie Xo and Jelly Roll finally got some good news related to their journey. “When you just got the call you’ve been waiting on for 5 months since this IVF journey started. All the tears, the hopeless & the struggle, God finally said, ‘Here.'” Bunnie Xo writes over a video of her crying on the phone with what one would presume is her doctor. In a TikTok caption of the same footage, Bunnie Xo clarifies that this is not a pregnancy announcement, but a positive step in that direction: “This is not a pregnancy announcement- we won’t announce that. It’s just a huge huge milestone for us.” View this post on Instagram A post shared by Bunnie Xo. (@xomgitsbunnie) In another video that Bunnie Xo shared on her second TikTok account, she touched on the hope she’s still holding onto for how their journey will unfold and that the piece of news they received will grow into more reasons to celebrate. “I got some really cool news today on this IVF journey. Honestly, I have felt so hopeless since after the first retrieval. The emotional ups and downs of this process I wouldn’t wish on anyone. We have 24 more hours to hold our breath, but the fact that God has brought us this far makes me tear up just writing this. And I know everything can change in the blink of an eye, but I just want to take this moment to smile briefly and be thankful. I’ve been praying hard all day.” @ohheyitsbunnie #jellyandbunnie ♬ One Of Us – Joan Osborne We are keeping our fingers crossed for more good news to come, Bunnie and Jelly. God willing, all of these ups and downs will be worth it in the end when Bunnie Xo and Jelly Roll have a child of their own.The post Bunnie Xo & Jelly Roll Celebrate “A Huge, Huge Milestone” On IVF Journey: “God Finally Said ‘Here'” first appeared on Whiskey Riff.
