[quote=Anonymous]I know this is a strange question, but I have immigrant parents who (I believe, though do not know) will have never have heard of IVF or any type of ART- or at least not in any way other than "test tube babies". To them, a woman having a baby is the most important thing in the world, and I'm scared, terrified, actually of telling them that we have had trouble and having been trying these methods for the last year. I have not told them anything yet, but after now miscarrying, this is hard to keep a secret, especially because I am close to my parents. I know they are going to be so worried, and I"m concerned they won't understand these technologies- and I'm terrified they won't approve (even though I think I"m selling them short, I think i'm just projecting). So basically, I've decided I'm going to tell them, it would be nice to have my mom to cry to sometimes, but I need some advice on how to tell them... any suggestions? Thanks[/quote]
