Dr Potter I went to your gender selection seminar in sydney last night and just wanted to say thankyou so much for putting on the event. It covered everything we needed to know about going to HRC for IVF/PGD. Also thanks for sharing your mothers own experience. When you spoke about the emotional side to wanting a particular gender, I nudged my husband and I think this was the first time he truly understood how I felt.The way you put it was perfect! It was also great to meet Lori and some of your other wonderful staff. I wish I could have taken home the big prize, but still planning to come to HRC later in the year or early next year. I hope you enjoy the rest of your time in Australia.

Hi Girls I saw Dr Potter in Melbourne as well. We were a little late and I was sitting behind the tall blond guy and his wife at the front. My husband and I have decided to go ahead but I am still breast feeding and will have a consult in Aug or Sep. I hope to wean her by end of Aug then we will do per testing. I'm afraid if I do pre testing while breast feeding my results will be inaccurate not sure I should ask Dr Potter.
