Things don't quite workout for sloot who froze eggs.

Brigitte Adams caused a sensation four years ago when she appeared on the cover of Bloomberg Businessweek under the headline, “Freeze your eggs, Free your career.”She was single and blond, a Vassar graduate who spoke fluent Italian, and was working in tech marketing for a number of prestigious companies. Her story was one of empowerment, how a new fertility procedure was giving women more choices, as the magazine noted provocatively, “in the quest to have it all.”

Adams remembers feeling a wonderful sense of freedom after she froze her eggs in her late 30s, despite the $19,000 cost. Her plan was to work a few more years, find a great guy to marry and still have a house full of her own children.

Things didn’t turn out the way she hoped.

In early 2017, with her 45th birthday looming and no sign of Mr. Right, she decided to start a family on her own. She excitedly unfroze the 11 eggs she had stored and selected a sperm donor.

Two eggs failed to survive the thawing process. Three more failed to fertilize. That left six embryos, of which five appeared to be abnormal. The last one was implanted in her uterus. On the morning of March 7, she got the devastating news that it, too, had failed.

Adams was not pregnant, and her chances of carrying her genetic child had just dropped to near zero.She remembers screaming like “a wild animal,” throwing books, papers, her laptop — and collapsing to the ground.

Quite sad.

Although now it seems she's going to be a willing single mother at 45 by giving birth to a child that contains none of her genetic data.

I really don't either, but probably a good advisory warning for women against doing this chit.

But good news for older misc boyos
In an unfortunate and unfair twist of nature, men are believed to replenish their sperm at a rate of 1,500 a second through most of their lives; there are documented cases of men remaining fertile into their 90s.

Sad but typical I know what I'm worth and bring to the table mentality. She's only her ego to blame for the failure.

I dont really find the story funny, I mean that sucks for her.

In retrospect though, she really shouldn't have put all of her eggs in one basket.

ha ha!

feminism denied.

lol @ thinking she can just put an egg into that 45 y/o uterus and have a normal pregnancy. Who was miscarraige?

lol @ her now having a kid who has no blood connection to her. Essentially created in a lab. I'm sure that kid will grow up healthy and normal.

never understood why women give up a family so they can have a career in HR or marketing. I could understand if it was an important job or something.

That's the risk you take. Don't really feel the need to laugh at her pain though. I'm sure she'll get over it in the end.

I am not laughing but I do not feel sorry for her at all. You are the one who was talking a big bad game about how you have freed yourself, now you are screaming like an animal.

She went against her nature to make a feminist statement, which naturally failed.

She thought having a career making a lot of money would make her life meaningful. Failed.

So delusional to bring career into this and use it as a scapegoat when it 100% is her not finding a good enough guy to settle with

probably thought she was some prize to be won, until those looks start to fade.


article says she took donor egg and sperm and is having a girl.

A kid is a kid I guess, still, kinda sucks to put in an investment like that, should come with a massive warning (it did right?)
