As a person that suffered infertility for many years and went through assisted conception to conceive my twins I am insulted and really hurt that someone fertile would do this.

Why should anyone be given the chance to go get ivf done purely to try and get twins.It seems utterly ridiculous that anyone would consider that.

The pain and suffering and longing to have a child is something that a fertile person doesnt ever have to go through. Why use the resources and a spot for a couple that are so desperate to conceive be taken by someone lazy enough that cant be bothered doing it themselves. If they have no fertility issues then they dont need IVF. Its selfish and one step away from designer babies.
People want to control their lives and if they have enough money they think they can order their babies like they do their drive thru meal.
Whats next??? Ordering a baby that looks like Brad Pitt and has Angelinas lips and smouldering eyes?

Only a person that has suffered the arduous journey of infertility can understand what it feels like. The desperation you have everyday of hoping that you will one day have a baby in your arms. The longing, the hope. Its hard enough seeing people that can conceive at the drop of the hat, let alone ones that would consider ivf just to get twins.

And I agree...how wrong is the journalist that asks the question. Shows how ignorant they are in understanding the IVF process here in Australia.
IVF does not guarantee you twins, nor does it even guarantee you a single baby. It is a procedure that will help you maybe achieve what nature hasnt let you.
