[quote=Anonymous]If he specifically asked, yes, but I can't imagine volunteering that detail, any more than I would feel compelled to share any detail about conception. I also tell him that we wanted him very much and we so excited to meet him. I do not tell him that I had multiple miscarriages after IVF, that I feared I'd never be a mother, that I sobbed on the regular and that it was the worst emotional pain I'd ever known. No kid needs that level of knowledge, or pressure. He knows what's relevant. He also knows enough to tell you that he was created in a lab, like Captain America, and seems to think that it's pretty damn cool (I agree). Honestly, I think most kids would prefer to know that they were created in a lab vs by their parents having sexual intercourse...[/quote]
