Re****t: Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie twins conceived through in vitro

New parents Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie turned to fertility
treatments when they decided to add to their family, a source told Us
Weekly.
"They conceived through in vitro fertilization," a Brangelina pal
said. "They both desperately wanted more babies soon."
Jolie, 33, opted for the pricey procedure so "she wouldn't have to
deal with the stress of trying to get pregnant," the source added.
"She could just knock it out."
Fraternal twins Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline were born on July 12
at a hospital in Nice, France.
The babies' power-couple parents have spoken about a desire to have
several more children. Jolie said on "The Daily Show" last year that
she and Pitt can't decide how many children they want. "It fluctuates
between seven and 13 or 14," she said. "We kind of feel like, damn it,
we're up for the challenge."
But, according to the Brangelina insider, the couple "were too
impatient" in their wish to have children while they're young.
The twins join siblings ****loh, 2, Zahara, 3, Pax, 4, and Maddox, 6.
Pitt's publicist had no comment on Thursday.
