Dr. Zev Rosenwaks, who performed Celine’s in vitro fertilization talks about the procedure and how Celine is doing.
According to Dr. Rosenwaks, when he called Celine to tell her the pregnancy test was positive “you could hear her chuckling.” He added, “She was very happy. So was René. They are both very thankful.”
Dr. Rosenwaks, who is the director of the Ronald O. Perelman and Claudia Cohen Center for Reproductive Medicine at New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Center Medical Center also divulged that the embryo that was implanted was frozen in liquid nitrogen for the past eight years. He says, “She is very, very early in her pregnancy.”
Dion had her embryos frozen eight years ago when she went through IVF to conceive her first child Rene-Charles. When she completed her contract for her performances in Las Vegas back in 2007, she consulted the fertility specialist about having another child.
According to Dr. Rosenwaks, freezing an embryo for eight years is not something to be concerned about. “There have been embryos that have been [frozen] for more than 10 years, and even more than 15 years, that have successfully thawed and resulted in a pregnancy.”
The doctor added that “She is feeling well so far. So far, so good. I look forward to hearing the fetal heartbeat. René and Céline are both looking forward to a pregnancy that is a healthy one.”
