Girl babies do better as premies, so if you're AMA (which it sounds like you are from your post) and/or have any other risk factors, that would be the deciding factor for me.

Hmm hard to choose. I really wanted one of each and wouldn't have been happy being one and done.

If you had the option to select, which would pick? A little boy or little girl?

OP, unlike other people here, I think you have an absolute right to pick the gender if you have so many. But how do you expect perfect strangers to pick for you? Both boy and girl children have their special pleasures, some are more special to some people than others. Don't you already know what you prefer?

For what it's worth, we have a boy and a girl, and nine embryos in storage. When time comes to go for #3, we'll pick a boy. As you know, it's not a guarantee of anything, it may not take or may not be healthy, or none at all make take.

OP, I have a similar situation. I have 2 AAA embryos (one of each), I am leaning toward letting the clinic pick so that I can be surprised.

OP, I am sorry that people are being so nit-picky with your question. This thread is starting to resemble the thread from the poster who gained 10 lbs during IVF, but lost it and who thought pgs was a scam.
The forum is Infertility Support and Discussion, but I don't see much support lately. It is disheartening.


If you (or OP) follows this board as closely as you claim to, you would know that this topic would cause a war. Someone else pointed out that she is likely a troll--not that we doubt her story, but the post was created to get a rise out of people. Personally, I think the thread has been rather mild vs. past posts on this topic.


+1. Lots of support on the other posts/threads in this forum.
