@selenagomez just shared she cannot carry her own children. #selenagomez#parenting#selflove

@selenagomez just shared something very personal about her fertility—she cannot carry her own children. But that doesn’t mean motherhood is out of the question for her. Since it became clear that Gomez and her boyfriend Benny Blanco are very serious about their relationship, people have started to wonder if children are in the couple’s future. (Especially since Blanco has spoken openly about wanting to have kids with the singer/actor.) Well, in a new interview with Vanity Fair, Gomez revealed that while she cannot become pregnant herself, she’s already thinking about other ways to have kids, including adoption.

As someone going through infertility I love that’s she so open about sharing this

[malihaShama]

Mom is not only who can give birth to a baby, mom is also them who raise a baby into a true human being dear. Lots of loves for those moms❤

[alexispena]

She has the softest heart. She will be a great mom, it radiates off her.

[lisafeliciano]

God bless. Just cause you don't carry a child doesn't mean you can't love a child. They will love you and call you mom. That's all that matters. Love breaks all these boundaries.

I was diagnosed with Lupus at 19. Due to severe kidney impairment my husband and I chose to adopt. All 3 of my children are adopted. Most of the time I forget they are adopted. I am now 67 with 13 grand children. Love life to the fullest!

[RyanBellinger]

I can't have children either... I tried different ways and got so stressed I gave up. At 44, I know in my heart it wasn't meant to be for me. I looked into adoption, but I couldn't afford it, so I dwelled on it for a while and lost a lot of weight (stress). Instead, I got a puppy, and she feeds my heart! It's definitely not the same as a child, but something gets my love and attention ❤

SELENA, I adopted a boy when he was 10. He is truly my son. You will be a wonderful mother.

[nermax]

She’s such a beautiful person. Love her so much

❤❤❤...However u become a Mom, ur child/children will be SOOOO BLESSED to call u "Mom"...❤❤❤

[lauratarry]

I have Lupus too! I developed it after I had my second son, and I turned 30. Carrying my 3rd son at 35 with Lupus nearly killed me! I had major issues with my heart and kidneys. I am grateful he and I made it! He and I were in the hospital for 12 days after he was born. Adoption and surrogacy are both amazing options! I am friends with people who have adopted, and those precious children are just as much theirs, as my boys are mine❤❤❤

[darkeststar]

Surrogate or adopted, her baby will never be out of her sight unless she's working and then the baby won't be far away. Selena will be a beautiful loving mom.

[maikopasma]

She might not be able to carry a child, but she can still have a child with her own DNA
Surrogacy is a blessing

[davidroe]

Bless her, she's so strong and yes it will be her baby blood dosent always mean family mothers can adopt children and still love them just as much as their own xxx

[myrnatorrez]

Absolutely! My cousin couldn't have children.And God let her fall in love with this 8 year old, that was her replica! She said that when she saw her it took her back to her child hood.And that child is now 25.They have been such a Blessed family.

[lavieentoni]

As a fellow autoimmune disease survivor, I’m so happy that surrogacy is a possibility, I love her so much, so strong 😭 what a role model

[annamix]

This is the same for many younger transplant patients. I had a kidney transplant at 20 (I’m 23 now) and it would be way too risky for me to be pregnant or go through birth. It could kill my donor kidney, I would be considered high risk the entire pregnancy, I would have to switch off certain immunosuppressants 6 months before trying to conceive, if I get pregnant before doing that, the baby has a 100% chance of having birth defects and malformations, and if I developed preeclampsia, my blood pressure is already high so I might not get diagnosed in time. So many complications just from that, I can’t imagine having Lupus on top of it. I’ve never wanted to be pregnant so I never had to grieve that but my heart goes out to the people that do. I’ve always wanted to adopt and will be so excited to do that in the future.

[tamarapalmer]

God bless you! You are going to be an awesome mom. Moms aren't the ones who carry, but the ones who care and love for the child for the rest of their lives. Can't wait to see what comes next for you.

[lisaaopignatelli]

She will be a great mom . Can you imagine how many people would be willing to be her surrogate. How much care they would take to bless her with a child. . I do think she should adopt though. She has so much to give . So much kindness to pass on. 💕 I wish her all the best. She is in my prayers .

[Sv-hhct]

I can definitely say she's gonna be the loveliest mom one day! ❤ bless her

[Kaylz]

Thank you for talking about this. Not enough of us do. I also suffer with an array of auto immune diseases and can’t have children. It’s nice to hear you’re not alone.
