I have a tough question since nobody else has the balls to ask it. I welcome the downvotes in advance.
You said in your last AMA that using IVF you had 2 female eggs who were carriers of ZSD and 2 males eggs that weren't carriers to choose from. So you chose to have a girl who is a carrier rather than a boy who is completely healthy. I'm assuming if your daughter ever wants to have kids she's going to have to do some extra testing and maybe even IVF herself.
- Are there any other problems she is going to run into?
- How did you balance the cost and burden of selfishly choosing an "unhealthy" girl over a completely healthy boy?
Now for a more lighthearted question:
I didn't know it was so easy (yet expensive) to choose your child's gender. I really only want to have 2 kids maximum but I'd really like 1 girl and 1 boy. To me, it makes a lot of sense financially to use IVF to pick my second child's gender. Since if I have 2 boys or 2 girls first, I might be persuaded to have a third child to have at least one child of each gender. $15000 for IVF is a hell of a lot cheaper than a third kid in the long run. 50/50 odds. Either spend $15k to guarantee it or potentially $500k+ for a third/fourth kid until I get lucky.
- Are you going to tell your daughter you picked her gender?
- Will you pick a boy next?
