Personally I would choose the sex of my child, it may not be for you, but to call it unethical or forbidden is YOUR opinion and should be stated as such. I am, at the moment being tested as a carrier for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, which is passed onto boys. I would, if the o[tion was available, choose to have only girls as I would rather not knowingly pass on such a devastating illness to my child. I do, however, still desperately want to be a mother, and would go to any means necessary to make that happen.

I didn’t know there were places when you can chose the sex of your baby. I know it is possible but thought it was forbidden except for medical necesities. And it should be forbidden, it’s so unethical.

i would love to see her with a girl, and i wouldn’t be surprised if they can’t conceive one naturally, if they would choose to adopt.

But, ashleigh, we’re not talking about your normal, middle-class couple. We’re talking about David Beckham and POSH SPICE! LOL. I’m sure they have the means necessary to adopt a girl.

I am totally against “choosing” the gender of your child. I think that is so unethical and unnatural. That’s just my opinion.

Anyway, I’d love for those two to have another child and like most of us, we’d hope she was having her little girl!

I love how everyone says ‘oh just adopt’ like its an easy option. I live in Australia and its nearly impossible to adopt over here it takes sooooo long there are so many requirements a whole heap of money needed plus even with all of those facotrs only a handful of people will end up being successful and granted the right to adopt a child from overseas.

So maybe if adoption wasnt so difficult more people would get involved as it is I always worry if I wont be able to have biological children because i really want kids and know it would be unlikely that I would be able to adopt which makes me sad especially when so many children need homes and I would be able to give so much love.

It’s totally possible for her. Microsort in Laguna Beach does this, with intra uterine insemination (IUI). For her, it would be cheap (less than $5K per round). Not that I haven’t looked into it myself (I’m a mom of three boys, too!)

Aww I hope they will be able to have a little girl! I love Posh

I agree that adoption is wonderful but so is natural birth. There’s nothing wrong with having biological children if that’s what you’d like.

IMO, Its not so much that people don’t consider adoption, it is more that it is often EXTREMLEY difficult to adopt…. so that is a big factor for some people.

hear hear Pencils!!! we’re having this one biological child and adopting the rest. i wish more people would consider adoption!
