Australia up for sex selection review!

[glory]

I wonder though if the NHMRC would then need to apply the same rule to couples who just do IVF (for a baby of any gender). What do they currently do with any spare embryos they don't want?

My PGD embryos are in Sydney and I have the choice each 6 months to renew and keep them frozen, to donate them, to let them succumb or donate them to science.

Where the frozen embryo donation also falls short is do you put a limit on how long you can keep your embryos for? Personally I am done, but there is nothing to stop me putting back and embryo even in another 20 years, so you would just say I still want more babies.... it would just be too hard to make that kind of ruling.

Oh I hope they change the laws. My partner and I wish to have a 'pigeon pair' seeing his ex-wife kept it disclosed to him that she had a heredity disease, and had children with him.He wants to have grandchildren.

Is there any word on the review?

I have been wondering this too as Aus would be so much easier

Wondering if this review will ever take place in Australia?

[1+2+3boys]

God I hope so. I just found out today that we wont be able to go to Cz to do it. We could save for the cycle cost alone in America but the cost travel from NZ plus accomodation makes it many years away for us. I'm so sad about it. I just want a daughter to complete my wonderful family of boys and I'll love them all equally. Nothing wrong with what I want, it's totally natural. But she will be so much younger and it will be all so stressful being so far from home

I tried to look on their website but it was so confusing I couldn't find much. I know I read it's supposed to be reviewed in 2015 but I have no idea if it's at the start or end of the year.

I have my fingers crossed for you 1+2+3 boys. I'm sure all those beautiful boys keep you busy xx

Go guys does anyone have any further info? I contacted GENAE but they said they think if anything the laws will get harder? I've emails the Health company but I didnt get much help!

[mear1006]

I did a quick search and couldn't find anything either. Isn't looking very promising for Australia any time soon.
Did Genae have any time line info on when they were suppose to conduct the review?

[Mercboys]

Sorry for the late reply, I heard it was late June but we'll see soon I guess? If I find any more I'll let you know
