I'm surprised comments are not turned off per ABC's usual practice.
So 15 Grand to freeze them 🥚. And 35 grand per round to have a 🍳 kid. She ain't marrying no Broke that's for sure. All that to become a single mother 😞
In PokemonGo you only have to walk 2km to hatch an egg
Haha
Do we have any scientific information about any side effects of this technology?
Just another business profiting from making women anxious
This is so sad... 24 yr old freezing eggs???? Ridiculous
It's better than irresponsible unplanned pregnancy, right?
@@A.I.- 💯🙌
Wrong@@A.I.-
All I needed to hear was "inject hormones" and that was enough for me. No thank you. I'll adopt, if I can't control the maternal instinct.
What's wrong with it? Just curious
You speak my language! I'm 39yrs turning 40 in another 7-8 months. I haven't even met the right one & don't know when I will. Not willing to settle for less just for the ticking clock. Really contemplating the risks of getting my eggs frozen now vs going natural. By God's grace, I have healthy menstrual cycle & lifestyle. On one side, I do desperately want to have a legacy for my genes, on the other hand I don't want to risk my health by freezing eggs, which at this age may or may not have success either. Should I just trust in God & be positive if God blesses me with babies naturally? If not, I'll adopt. My PCP will be referring me to the fertility clinic tomorrow. Any advice?
It is good to bring up this topic and to have some marketing....and warnings
So ridiculous.
If you think this is tough, wait till the egg hatches and you actually have to bring up a child.
wrong. i have raised 6 childen. going through IVF is harder than actually raising them
@@amethystflower8799 Well then you can't possibly be doing it right
is this egg abuse??
Maybe
Oh, well
priviledged people problem
Yeah majority are not going to use it anyway
So we pay for maybe having a baby? So the chances are the same? If not better to just do it naturally?
artificial and so synthetic
First world problem
24 years old looking 40
24? God I hope she's joking. I'm 3 years older and could pass as her daughter. I think they meant 44
44 is to old, they advise to be young. Then quality is better when young.
Please turn off the comments, ABC. I've never seen so many nasty, unnecessarily negative opinions in one place.
Then don't look at the comments😊.
i wish to freeze them eggs and then use them in artificial womb 😁😃so would be able to work all the time as fathers do
Keep Dreaming 😁
Glad i didnt do this as i once considered and is now pregnant with my first
