“My husband said, ‘I don’t want to see you going through IVF again — that was brutal,’” Mellencamp, 38, told Us Weekly. “It was so many rounds, but this time we really weren’t doing anything! I was on vacation! Just having fun with my family! I didn’t even know I was because I didn’t have a regular cycle.”
Mellencamp and Arroyave are already parents to a daughter, Slate, 6, and son Cruz, 5, and Arroyave has a 10-year-old daughter from a previous relationship.

I think I struggled more because of it.”
