OnThe View: Behind the Tablepodcast, the co-host, 35, shared that she and husbandJustin Griffinare going through in vitro fertilization (IVF) after the couple tried for over a year to conceive naturally.

“I’m going through IVF right now,” Farah Griffin says on the podcast. “So my husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for about a year and a half, and it wasn’t happening naturally.”

“So we made the decision to move forward with IVF,” she continues. “This is now my second cycle. So tomorrow, I will be in the doctor’s office dealing with that.”

Farah Griffin goes on to say that she wanted to share about her journey because she didn’t realize how hard the process would actually be.

“I’m only 35. And to me, I was like, I’ve got plenty of time,” she says. “This won’t be that difficult. I’m healthy. I work out. I eat right. And my body was just not cooperating with it.”

The Viewco-host remembers giving herself injections at midnight at CNN on Election Night and feeling okay throughout the first cycle, but notes that she thinks she may have been getting “kinda cocky.”

“Because the second cycle, I’ve been a wreck. I’ve not felt myself. I’ve been tired. I’ve been emotional. And you just feel uncomfortable in your body,” Farah Griffin reveals.

“And I wanted to just share with women who are struggling that there is hope, and you just have to kind of be present in the process as you’re in it. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. I don’t know when that will be for us, but it’s incredible what science can do.”
