Though Teresa and Melissa haven't always seen eye-to-eye, the sisters-in-law did have something in common when it came to expanding their families. On the Nov. 27 episode, Teresa revealed that she and husband Joe Giudice had tried in vitro fertilization years earlier to try to have a boy. At the time when they tried to have a boy, they were already the parents of daughters Gia, Gabriella, and Milania.
"We tried to have a boy. We did the in vitro," she revealed in Jamaica. "They put three embryos in me." She also discussed how difficult the process was on her body and emotions.
Teresa went on to say that she didn't get pregnant from the process, and she and Joe later tried to conceive naturally. Teresa ended up getting pregnant with daughter Audriana.
"We’re like, 'Let’s just do it the natural way,'" Teresa said about deciding not to do another round of in vitro. "And we did it and it was Audriana, another girl. So we weren’t meant to have a boy."
Co-star Jackie Goldschneider also detailed her experience with IVF, which was how she got pregnant with her two sets of twins.
