Sarah Silverman considering freezing her eggs

Actress Sarah Silverman, 45, wants to have children and she is considering freezing her eggs to ensure the opportunity doesn't pass her by.

"A few years ago, I casually said something in an interview about being afraid to have kids because I might pass depression onto them, but I don't know if I feel that way any more," Silverman told Glamour magazine, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"I like to think I would therapy through it (instead of helicoptering around my kids in horror that something is wrong with them. A part of me is baby crazy. A part of me goes, 'Why not?'

"Every day I add 'Freeze eggs?' to my to-do list. Then it gets passed on to the next day's list. Maybe I'll adopt. I do have sorrow about the possibility I may never have my own children," she added.
