Bill and Giuliana Rancic say that they're toughing it out with their IVF treatments -- sometimes involving more than 60 shots in a month -- to get pregnant.

The stars of Giuliana and Bill first opened up about their miscarriage in October. "It was several months of guilt and sadness," Giuliana, 36, told The View.

Now, the couple is optimistic about their chances. "The good news is that IVF did work as we did get pregnant," Giuliana told UsMagazine.com at the launch of the new Volkwagon EOS in Santa Monica on Tuesday.

"Sometimes I have to get [injections] 21 days in a row, three times a day," Giuliana told Us. "It's a lot. But you've got to do it."

Thank goodness for Bill, 39, whose steady hands administer the shots to his needle-fearing wife. "Bill could honestly be on Grey's Anatomy," Giuliana said. "He could be McRancic."

Boasted Bill: "I give a pretty good shot."

If all else fails, the Rancics say they're open to other options -- and even have volunteers among their fans.

"We've gotten probably 40 women who have offered to be surrogates," Giuliana told Us. "And the other day I got an email saying, 'My niece is having a baby, and she's giving it up for adoption and we'd like to give it up to you."

While the couple isn't ready for adoption or surrogacy yet, they say the support has been encouraging. "It's just amazing how many people are incredibly generous and so giving," Giuliana said.
