My opinion

Doing genetic testing we were able to choose to find out the sex of each individual embryo.  It is crazy and wonderful at the same time.  That being said...it makes the process harder! (at least in my opinion)
In a normal pregnancy you wouldn't find out the sex of your baby until 20 weeks and you had no control over what sex your baby was.  Imagine being able to pick the sex of your baby beforehand!  For some that would be awesome.  Especially if you are trying to family balance.  For others they would say picking the sex of your baby is playing God.  I would say it is a great responsibility to pick the sex of your baby.  It would require a lot of prayer and meditation.  In the end it is still not up to us how many children we have but I would suggest following the peace.  There is no price you can put on the peace you have when you are on a good or right path.  Sometimes it takes us making a hard decision before that peaceful confirmation comes.  Dealing with fertility and child loss there are a lot of ups and downs.  The one thing we can look forward to is feeling that peace surround us when things are hard.  Especially if we follow that peace to begin with.


p.s.  My husband and I have decided to keep our decisions regarding how many embryos we will implant and the sex of the embryo or embryos a secret.  It is our way of keeping people on their toes!  In your journey you can keep people on their toes as much or as little as you want.  Some couples need the support from their families in everything.  Others prefer to keep it between themselves.  Whatever you decide, decide together.  Use this journey to grow together as a couple.
