[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When should I tell my kids that they are IVF babies? Should I also tell them that we did IQ screening on the embryos or should I wait until they are adults to mention this detail? At what age did you tell your kids that they were IVF babies and how did you explain it?[/quote] It is so clinical and cold. Imagine your mother telling you that you were concocted in a lab.[/quote] But it doesn’t have to be presented in a cold way at all. You could emphasize to your child, how, mommy loved her and wanted her so much that she went through many many painful shots and uncomfortable tests just for a chance to have a baby. Then, she went to the clinic on that special day to have her baby put inside. And daddy went too that day. He did his part in a special room. Then he was with mommy every step of the way. You can make the story about love if you try.[/quote]
