Same-sex couple carries same baby, calls experience 'priceless'
ABC News ^ | 5:02 PM ET | TIMMY TRUONG

A North Texas couple is believed to have made medical history as the first couple to deliver a baby they both carried.

Ashleigh and Bliss Coulter, of Mountain Springs, are now happy mothers to a healthy 5-month-old baby boy named Stetson, all thanks to a procedure called Effortless Reciprocal In Vitro Fertilization or Effortless Reciprocal IVF.

Bliss and Ashleigh met six years ago and married in June of 2015. Even before marriage, they had already discussed having children.

This was less than ideal for the health of the baby.

If the child is male, there was a sperm donor involved.

************

Correct....

With Ashleigh and Bliss, Doody harvested eggs from Bliss and introduced it to
sperm from a donor in the INVOcell. It was then placed in Bliss to allow
fertilization and formation of the embryos for five days. The embryos were
then removed and frozen until Ashleigh was ready to receive them.

With traditional Effortless IVF, the woman who donates the egg is usually
the one that will receive the embryo. But because the egg and embryo came
from Bliss and were put in Ashleigh, this makes this case unique.

Oh, they still have a bunch of frozen fertilized eggs, more properly called young embryos, so they might buy, sell, trade, donate, or dispose of them, into the medical waste can they go!

Complete oblivious disregard for the little boy's need for a father and a mother. It's all about how they, the parents, serve their own feelings and get what they want.

The difference between a kid and a commodity --- in this scenario, an expensive pet --- is now officially nil.

If it was two fathers and no mothers his life would be 20 years of pederasty and a suicide.

Of course there was a sperm donor—as the article itself says!

But the poor kid is being treated as if the “father” (or any father) doesn’t count!!!!

Some children grow up and try to find the sperm donor who made his or her life possible. That’s only one scenario as to what will happen with this little boy!!!!

I know of someone (single) who adopted a little girl, same sort of thing.

Playing God will not go well, especially for the child. Those who harm a child in any way will invite disaster, one way or another.Pity the child.

They’ll see. And it’ll probably be sooner than later. Keep track of this couple.

Deliberately exposing him to enhanced risk in an experimental process. Well, he has no rights: he’s a commodity concocted in a commercial transaction, so what the hell.

No, it was just a gimmick to say the baby was carried by both of them.

Except --- I presume --- the little adopted girl wasn't artificially generated for the express purpose of being raised fatherless.

With adoption, (unless you are child trafficker) you are responding to the needs of an already-born child whose natural family, by some mischance or malfeasance, is not there to care for her.

I repeat: adoption is responding as well as you can to the needs of an already-existing child born into an deprived situation which everybody acknowledges was sad, not optimal. It's set upo to meet the child's needs.

IVF in this case is the intentional concoction of a child for the express purpose of raising him fatherless. It is not responding to the needs of the child (as well as we can) but creating a child whose needs have already been definitively set aside.

and no father

Everyone has a father. No one has two mothers.

Because kids with no dads grow up so well adjusted.
