Gender Selection Rules up for review in Australia - please make a submission!

[Violet Winter]

If they had allowed gender selection to couples with 3 or more of the one gender all of their reasons against it would mean nothing. And if anything it would've boosted family sizes.

It's ridiculous, but not unexpected. It does seem to leave it a bit open to individual states though? Maybe a glimmer of hope for the future?

IVF gender selection could be possible for Australian parents

Not in our reproductive lifetime it seems... (that headline is so totally misleading!!)

[BrightSky]

It's totally crazy.. decades until it might be a possibility?! I just don't understand why society gets to have such a say in my reproductive liberty

So it looks like I'm planning a trip to the US later in the year with 3 little boys. Something I'm not looking forward to.

Violet Winter looks like your 2 youngest boys are my boys ages, we are planning on going over later in the year too. I'm dreading the plane, but think the holiday will be fun!!

"This is the pace of social change" - as always, Australia will move at a snails pace. So disappointing.

I'm dreading the plane ride too especially if I'm full of hormones.

How expensive is the procedure in the US roughly?

[louil]

Its around 15,500 according to the information gender selection Australia sent me a few months ago. Although I'm not sure if that's us or Aus dollars.

We are thinking of heading to america in june next year although my hubby is having second thoughts and I'm starting to worry about my age. I will be 36 next June. How old is everyone who is considering going? There is so much to think about, it's all quite overwhelming
