Chrissy Teigen and John Legend are officially working on baby number two.
Inside InStyle‘s November cover story, the swimsuit model revealed that she and Legend will soon attempt to get pregnant with their second child through in vitro fertilization.
As you may already know, the couple had to also undergo IVF to conceive daughter Luna, now 17 months. According to Teigen, the frozen embryo she will have implanted within the coming months is the couple’s last remaining from fertility treatments she underwent many years ago.
“The first little girl didn’t work, and then the second is Luna,” explained Teigen, who began with 20 embryos, until that number was slashed to three after screening and based on what was “going to be good for [my] body.”
Teigen, who first opened up about her struggle with postpartum depression back in April, penning an essay for Glamour, also touched on her former battle with the mental health disorder. “I thought I was just being a selfish a—hole,” she said, admitting that she reached a point where she confined herself to her home, with the curtains closed, before being formally diagnosed.
“It wasn’t just a mental thing of, you know, ‘I’m sad,’ ” Teigen recalled. “I actually couldn’t move.”
Continued Teigen, “I have really good days and really bad days, and I don’t tend to talk about the really bad days. But I would hate for people to think those days didn’t exist.”
Teigen also gushed about her hubby of four years in the new interview, saying, “I’m much luckier to have John’s personality in my life than he is to have mine.”
“He is insanely patient and such a dork, and he loves seeing me happy, even if that means watching The Real Housewives of Dallas with me for two and a half hours,” she shared, adding, “I mean, I don’t care about half the s— he’s doing either.”
“But there’s a balance,” she clarified. “If he’s watching MSNBC and is excited about something, then I’ve got to be in that realm.”
How exciting for the pair, especially considering that just last month there were reports suggesting the couple was experiencing a little trouble in paradise.
