Marcia Cross’s a desperate mother

The Desperate Housewives star was so keen to start a family with husband Tom Mahoney that she persuaded him to forgo their romantic break and start fertilisation treatments. She said, “We decided to skip our honeymoon and try In Vitro after the wedding. I had already been through infertility treatments before. It’s very, very difficult to get pregnant in your 40s. It’s costly and tough on your body and your relationship.” The 45-year-old actress, who gave birth to fraternal twin girls Eden and Savannah last year, is considering adoption because she doesn’t want to put her body through another IVF procedure. She said, “I don’t think I’ll have any more kids, but I’m not 100 per cent sure whether we will adopt or not.” Marcia, who tied the knot in June 2006 also revealed she wishes she had become a mother earlier in her life, because she wants to spend as much time as possible with her children.
