“We were trying to get pregnant and it wasn’t going well [...] a couple of weeks later I had a miscarriage" [...] So she sought out IVF treatments from a fertility doctor and began giving herself hormone shots, the AP reported [...] Eventually, Obama became pregnant, first with Malia, who is now 20, and then Sasha, now 17.
Seriously?
No, fake news by OP u/ZealConsumesMe-4 . The claim in the book is that they used IVF after she had a miscarriage, not surrogates.
