Jennifer Aniston is considering in vitro fertilization or adoption to fulfill her lifelong dream of becoming a mother, a new report claims.

The Marley and Me actress split from musician John Mayer earlier this month.

A source Life and Style Weekly: “In a perfect world, she’d get pregnant naturally. But if ‘Mr. Right’ doesn’t show up, she’s willing to adopt or try in vitro fertilisation using donated sperm. She is working out how she wants to proceed. But one thing is definite – she wants a baby, and she wants one soon. She is willing to become a single mother.”

The tipster adds, “She was hoping to have a baby with him. But I think deep down she knew he probably felt he wasn’t ready to settle down and start a family. She has decided to go ahead and have a baby on her own. She knows the one luxury she doesn’t have right now is time.”

Earlier this week, it was reported that Jennifer has vowed never to marry again because no man will ever compare to her ex-husband Brad Pitt.
