In case you didn't get the news, the engagement is OFF! So, she really MIGHT be stashing her eggs for the future. *SHRUG*

“Squad” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez completed her egg-freezing journey and vowed to continue sharing updates, despite complaining last week about the “negativity” she’s faced for her social media postings on the process.
The 36-year-old Bronx and Queens congresswomen took her nearly 10 million Instagram followers along for the final day of the two week process — egg retrieval day — documenting the day starting at 5:30 a.m., in a post shared on Saturday.
Ocasio-Cortez was decked out in skincare eye masks for the procedure, which she thought “was a really nice way to bring some lightness to this process,” she said.
After the egg-retrieval procedure was complete, Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) said, “[I] was informed of my final count, both in the number of eggs retrieved and which of those eggs were mature.
“As I’ve mentioned previously, out of respect for all the different kinds of fertility and family journeys that people have, I will not be sharing my specific numbers.”
“So instead of focusing on generalizations and fear, I instead want to encourage people to operate from the facts of your body specifically and knowledge of our reproductive systems, particularly shared by licensed fertility specialists,” she said.
The congresswoman recalled how her doctor explained the egg retrieval procedure where she would be “under anesthesia and asleep the entire time.”
“And as I sat on the other side of my doctor’s desk, I had this sudden intrusive fear-based thought. I imagined myself waking up totally alone,” she said in the social media video that has the comments section limited.

I read this article and then spent a few minutes thinking about why any of this is my business. And why I should care.
I could not come up with a single reason. Not even a mediocre “made up” reason entered my thoughts.
No one cares.
No, the clock is still ticking. She would fire blanks.
But the process of “picking out eggs” sucks. Lots of shots. And the process is about as invasive as you get.
I wouldn’t wish that on anyone.
But, its also none of my business.

there are a whole lot of people out there who do not need to spread their DNA, she’s one of them.
If she stays in politics a nanny will raise her baby anyhow.
Kept frozen by a reliable electric grid. Hey ‘you didn’t build that’.

Maybe sheee can garner a pregger donation from an equally brite one who excels in annunciation and pronunciation with such words as superfluous and corpes man. Boy this nait shun can really throw soome curves.
Luck
A force or chance event that brings good or bad fortune. It describes positive or negative outcomes that happen by random chance rather than through direct skill or planning.
I don’t understand this person.
Wasn’t she whining about there ONLY being 12 years left if America (and America alone) taxed large industries into bankruptcy, we stopped using fossil fuels and congress forced the rest of the taxpayer/wage earners to subsidize “green” projects coast to coast what, six years ago or so?
Aren’t there only something like 5 years left?
Does this mean she was LYING? Delusional? Covering her bets?
Or just another attention whore?

Maybe she’s not really interested in marriage and family.
Is she saying her work in the political world is far more important than marriage and family for her personally?
And so that’s why she wants to freeze her eggs to use years from now?
Well then, it also makes you wonder about who is going to contribute sperm.

Why does she feel the need to share this and does she think anyone cares about her eggs?!
And if you do put something - anything really - out on social media, some feedback will inevitable be negative.
What is next…posting her cycles?
Way too much information
Hey, I’m onboard with it. Future generations will thank us for guaranteeing them an uninterrupted supply of idiots.
“10 million Instagram followers”
It would probably take all of them to get enough brain wattage to make to a combined 100 IQ.
Why aren't there more "public updates" by celebrity-politicians undergoing "sperm retrieval journeys?!"
Shouldn't the public be equally interested in the details of how semen is "harvested" from the male's body for freezing / long-term storage?
If not: WHY not?

Are there no things left precious enough to be held close to the heart? Not put out there as the social media post of the day!
