Chrishell Stause Keeps It Real About IVF Treatment

In an Instagram Story update, the reality star informed fans she is now receiving IVF treatment. She shared a snap of pills and an injection alongside a candid message about her bittersweet feelings.
"Back on the IVF hell train. I think this may be my last attempt," she explained. "There are other alternatives, but this route needed to be tried first bc of timing."
The realtor continued, "So if it's meant to be, it will be. If not, pivot. Stause, however, didn't go into details about her other options. Concluding the post, she expressed her appreciation to fans for their support.
"Live footage of me reading all the beautiful supportive messages on the last slide, THANK YOU," she wrote alongside a still image of a character from the show "Twin Peaks."
Stause And G-Flip Have Had 'Setbacks'

Stause's Instagram Stories update comes after she and G-Flip got candid about their infertility struggles. The couple, who have been married for almost two years, have always wanted a family.
In a joint interview, the pair admitted the journey to becoming parents has been difficult, mainly because they are queer:
"We're in a situation where it’s not easy to have kids. It's not like we can have one naturally. There are so many steps, there's so much planning, there are so many complications and things that can go wrong."
G-Flip seconded the sentiment, telling US Weekly that conceiving a child has "been very stressful" on their marriage. The Australian singer added, "Queer couples having kids, things not going your way, it's been pretty sad at times."
However, the disappointment isn't making them give up. "We’re still on that road, and we've had a few setbacks. But we're just navigating and going through the process," Stause added.
The Couple Didn't Always Agree On Kids

Although the lovebirds are now on the same page about children. It wasn't always that way. The Netflix star knew she wanted to be a mother from the start, but the "About You" songstress had doubts.
"When we met, I was ready, and G wasn't," Stause told the publication. The lovebirds met in 2021 shortly after Stause ended things with her "Selling Sunset" co-star Jason Oppenheim because he didn't want children.
Luckily, the lovebirds were able to overcome the "hurdle", and G Flip changed their mind. Ever since, Stause says she has received nothing but support from her wife.
"This is the first time I feel really confident going through this journey," she said before praising Melbourne producer for their parenting skills. Stause noted that G-Flip is naturally good with kids, and it is something she always loved.
A Possible Relocation To Australia

When G-Flip and Stause eventually become parents, they plan to raise their children in the singer's hometown of Australia. The "All My Children" alum called the country a "beautiful place" to raise a family.
As for why she thinks so, Stause noted that the nation's politics, health care, and school systems are favorable. It also helps that her wife's family is there. "There’s not a lot of bullying culture there," she added.
However, the major concern for the 43-year-old is how America has become less progressive in recent times.
"America’s going backward and Australia is becoming more progressive," she candidly explained. Australia feels a little bit more like a good decision as opposed to every headline we see here lately."

Back in March, Stause made headlines following the painful loss of her terrier mix, Gracie. The late pet, who often featured on "Selling Sunset," was adopted in 2016.
She paid a tear-jerking tribute to her furry loved one, recalling fond memories they shared. "Our beloved Gracie left us peacefully today," she wrote. "Thank you to anyone that was a friend to her and helped make her life here better. It's impossible to post a fraction of the joy this angel brought me."
In honor of Gracie, the realtor encouraged fans to adopt from the Burbank Animal Shelter, where she was gotten. "if you tell them Gracie's name, all adoption fees will be covered," Stause added.
